We had a pleasant stay in Rita's apartment. She was easy to communicate with and was very helpful with contact regarding keys and wifi. The apartment is basic but clean and comfortable with all amenities. In relation to previous reviews that state the wifi wasn't great, we had no issues with the wifi which was perfect - any problems had been resolved. The area is lovely - beautiful sea and a hot but straightforward half hour walk up to Taormina. We had two fantastic meals in A Putia - a wonderful restaurant five minutes walk away. There are great bars and restaurants close by and a cheap and friendly beach bar 5 minutes walk down the bay where you can rent a boat - highly recommended!
