Our apartment was a breath of fresh air. We thoroughly enjoyed the view of the sea as well as the large sliding windows to let in the air in the morning and evening. The pool itself has a fantastic view and is a nice warm way to relax if the beach is too crowded. The location between the beach and the town of Taormina is perfect - it makes the entire area very accessible if you are willing to enjoy a bit of a hike to your destination. Our host was very helpful and easy to work with throughout our experience.
