Love Love this place! Didn’t want to leave and even extended more days. I can’t say enough about the location. NO car needed! 3 minutes up the steps next door to the funicular is access to Lido Pigna and a gorgeous beach/cove. The best part of Taormina village is only a 3 minute walk up the hill. Easy stumbling distance home from the night clubs. We are two 50’s ladies and loved the safe area, secure apartment, and easy communication by Elisabetta. She was so helpful and accessible. The long balcony was perfect for morning sun and a view to the rising moon at sunset. Note that if you need quiet then bring earplugs because you are right on the road but that was what we loved, the people watching and access to everything without needing a taxi. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks Elisabetta!
