This apartment is beautiful and has the most incredible views across the bay of Gianni Naxos; with Mount Etna offering a constant source of interesting backdrops, depending on the time of day. The space is ideal for a couple and being just on the edge of Taormina, it’s a perfect location if you like the best of both worlds. We found it a quiet place to go back to after a busy day out. You don’t need a car if you are okay with walking and can tackle a bit of a hill (there are plenty of taxis and buses for venturing further afield).
Taormina is very busy with tourists (and locals at weekends), pouring in well into the evenings ... it’s lively, with so many restaurants, bars and coffee shops to choose from. We sampled many! However, our favourite ended up being just a few minutes up the road from the apartment - Osteria Trevie: delicious food and the most wonderful, warm welcome (we found a fair number in Taormina town were pretty indifferent about customer service - probably due to the sheer volume of ‘captive’ customers jostling for places to eat).
Marco is a great host. Communication was excellent and the apartment really did exceed our expectations- the photos don’t do it justice! Mr Fabianni manages the place. He is very efficient and was really understanding when we arrived late after our flight was delayed. The apartment was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. We would highly recommend it!
