Vera’s apartment is situated just near the beach below the old town of Taormina. This was the perfect location for us, as we left our car parked in her secure covered carpark and didn’t have to drive up the narrow windy road to the old town! We took the €1.50 bus instead which was much better for our stress levels! Communication with Vera was prompt and seamless. We WhatsApp’d her prior to arriving and met her at Taormina train station. She then guided us to her home. She gave us plenty of information including a map and bus timetable plus recommendations of where to eat and places to visit. Vera’s apartment is spacious and clean and had everything we needed. The bus stop is only 100 metres from her door and it takes you to the bus terminal up in old Taormina. From there it’s a short walk into the fabulous old town. We also took a bus from here down to Isola Bella beach and took a boat ride around the island and coast line. For an amazing view of the coast and Mt Etna, take the bus up to the hilltop village of Castelmola. Thank you Vera for a fantastic stay in beautiful Taormina!
