This apartment has fabulous views, a great location, and is very comfortable. It is directly across the street from the Taormina funicular (the cable car that goes down the hill to the beach) and is about 100 meters to the main commercial street of Corso Umberto and about a 10 minute walk to the ancient Greek theater. There is a very large deck (about 10x15 meters) shared with two other apartments, although we had it to ourselves during our stay. The apartment is of mid-60's vintage, large and well laid out, with a fully equipped kitchen, laundry, large bedrooms and large (for Europe) bathrooms. It would work perfectly for two couples or a family doing an extended stay.

On arrival, we were met by Maurizio's son, Dario, a delightful young man who helped us find free parking (a rarity in Taormina) and made us feel entirely at home.

Overall, just a very comfortable apartment. We could easily spend two weeks there.
