Graziana's apartment is light, clean and very comfortable. The balcony is a great place to sit and take in the amazing view (and especially the sunrise if you are an early riser because it faces east). We had pretty much everything we needed there (apart from a teapot - we are English!) and Graziana always responded very quickly to any questions we had.
The apartment is very close to the town centre (300 metres) so you can start your day very quickly, and get home again with no fuss. Although it is very close to town, the apartment is very peaceful and quiet at night.
Taormina is a beautiful place with incredible views of the surrounding sea, hills and countryside. It has plenty of great places to eat or drink and a vibrant main street. Highly recommend Da Cristina's for arancini - delicious lunchtime food. There is lots of historical interest too. If (like us) you prefer to have some less busy times on holiday, you can easily find pretty back streets away from the sometimes crowded main street.
I also recommend a visit to Castelmola which sits even higher up the mountain and provides an incredible viewpoint to look down at Taormina and the whole Etna region. You'll find plenty of places to rest and eat or take refreshment there too. There are regular buses up there, but there's also a gorgeous footpath with stairs that leads up to it, and a different one back down. Its a stiff climb so don't go at midday (like we did) unless you have a couple of bottles of water with you.
We enjoyed our stay in Taormina and Graziana's apartment was a good base for our visit.
