I chose this apartment based on the views and was not disappointed. really nice Seaviews straight ahead, and view of etna to the right when sat on the outdoor terrace. Good amount of space for outdoor dining.
As it was near the garden level, there can be insects on the terrace, but there is an insect sliding door to prevent them coming inside.
the walk to the main street of Taormina was 10 minutes maximum down roughly 75 steps. Supermarket is at the bottom of these steps too. Great safe location.
Apartment was spacious, and comfortable, and had a slight old charm. Only two downsides for us was that there was a bit of noise from the apartments above, and the beds were slightly firm for our comfort.
Would recommend for a couple.
