This is a lovely place to stay if you’re looking for an alternative to the hustle and bustle of central Taormina. It is close to the Centre, but a car is necessary, although it is close to the train station and the host, Giovanni, is very obliging and may collect visitors who arrive by train. We had a wonderful breakfast of fruit, toast, and omelette (made with eggs from their own hens). I would happily recommend Giovanni’s place to anyone.
