We were three family members who spent two weeks in Lucia's apartment at Taormina. The apartment is very nice and bright with it's lots of window-doors onto a large balcony. The view from the balcony is absolutely beautiful, you can see the whole panorama from bay of Giardini Naxos to Etna and nearly right up to Castelmola. We loved it!
The apartment is situated in a calm area of Taormina,
you can easily reach the center of Taormina by a 10-15 min walk - as well as the public car park. For load in and unload it's no problem to stay shortly in front of the house but it's not possible to park your car there permanently. The costs of car park 'Porta Catania' increased currently to 71,- €/week, but this is the best solution for a car.
The communication with Lucia was very easy. She welcomed us very friendly and explained everything important concerning the apartment, she helped with buying a parking ticket and finding a restaurant very late in the evening. She tried to find best solutions for check-in and check-out time. Thank you very much, Lucia!
Our recommendations for other guests at Taormina:
- visit Castelmola!
- visit Isola Bella (house and park)
- have a dinner at restaurant 'Tiramisu' - reservation is useful!
- taste the various flavours of Granita at BAMBAR (daily!!!)
- enjoy your stay!
Best wishes for Lucia.
