We booked Alberto’s apartment for the view. It didn’t disappoint! The panoramic view was well worth staying above Taormina. It was clean and had AC/heating units in both the living and bedroom. Carlotta is the person who you will contact regarding the apartment. She is unbelievable! She organized cabs for me and my family, she was quick to answer any of my questions through out my stay. She was able to accommodate us by providing a crib for our son. I cannot say enough good things about how helpful she was for me and my family. We did not have a vehicle, but I would suggest it. Staying around a 25min walk above the main town is not easy if you have young children or have some physical set backs.
