Firstly, Alfredo and Donatella were perfect hosts. They greeted us following some really clear communication and gave us some great tips. The place itself was an excellent find for us. Taormina, whilst beautiful, was always a bit out of our price range and this place we saw as a way to visit for an affordable price. We were very pleasantly surprised by how good the apartment was and more so how great the location was for the stunning town of Castelmola and the bus down to Taormina. The apartment was spacious, well stocked, impeccably clean and very comfortable. It has a good big bed and excellent air conditioning. The views from the balcony are lovely and perfect for an evening glass of wine. We knew going in that the road below may be a slight disruption but it didn’t take away from the experience. Overall we would definitely recommend this apartment as an alternative to expensive surrounding hotels. (Only other thing to note if you’re nervous of driving, prepare yourself for the drive up to get these beautiful views!). Thank you A&D
