This is an amazing apartment within easy walking reach of the main street of Taormina. The view is to die for and because we stayed for several days we discovered how convenient it was to walk to the different sights. We certainly got fitter staying here - there are quite a few steps in and out of the apartment - heavy bags are not a good idea! But once there it was easy. There was a small supermarket up the street which was fine (a larger one a 15 minute walk away at the other end of the main street) The bus station is a minute away down from the apartment and next to that is a secure car park that we paid 15 Eur per day to leave our car there but we could come and go as we pleased. It was worth it once you see parking in Taormina (scary!) We found the local food markets and enjoyed several fabulous meals at different restaurants. Vittorio was an excellent host and replied quickly to any queries with some great suggestions. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!
