The loft is incredible!! The space is huge and cool in the hot weather, every detail is unique and has been designed by Elena and build by her husband Gianfranco. Highly recommend staying here if you want to experience the more authentic Sicilian experience than touristy Taormina has to offer! Beach is across the road and actually nicer than those on offer in Isola Bella. We did Gianfrancos tour to Mt Etna and wine tasting which was fabulous!! Had a lovely lunch with Antonio at his winery and they even bought gluten free bread for me especially. Again highly recommend this, Gianfranco knows etna inside out and takes you on a unique and exhilarating experience walking right up to he craters and leaning about its history. One of the best tours I have ever been on due to its authenticity.
