This apartment in Taormina is a terrific place to stay, & Maria is the most fantastic & generous host. We had a lot of trouble finding the place to meet Maria, due to the GPS not picking up the meeting point, so we were much later arriving than we had hoped. From the start Maria was kind & helpful. The apartment is immaculate & has everything one could need to make a comfortable stay. The fridge was stocked with juice, water, milk , fruit , & there was breakfast food for us as well, along with delicious almond biscuits. Maria gave us lots of tips about local places to visit. When the washing machine did not work, she took washing home & did it for us! The apartment is a good 20 minute walk from the centre of Taormina, with some steep pinches, but we found that was a good thing, to walk off dinner. The other advantage is that It is also extremely quiet at night. I would recommend the apartment as a great place to stay. Thank you Maria, it was lovely to meet you & your family.
