This place is on the higher side of a hill. It has a spectacular view of the ocean, mainland Italy, and the east side of Taormina, including the theater. The outdoor terrace is a nice space to relax and wind down. Also, quite nice to catch a sunrise, which I did. The actual apartment is functional. One main downside is the lack of an air conditioning unit in the bedroom. When we stayed, it was quite warm. Not the most comfortable condition, but not the worst. Parking is fantastic! There is a private entrance to the apartment and private parking on site, protected by a large, lockable gate. Parking and a view were our main selling points, and this place delivered! The host was very nice and met us down the hill, then showed us the way to the apartment. I do think it would have been better for her to have sent us a pin mark on either google/Apple Maps or the coordinates to the place. It all worked out, though. We brought our e-mountain bikes with us and were very happy we did, because they allowed us to quickly zoom down into town and quickly make our way back. If we did not have them, it would certainly be a bit of a walk to get into town and a tad more challenging on the way back up. Other reviewers said it's not bad, but we don't know, we rode our bikes. Overall, if we stay in Taormina again, I'd be willing to pay extra for an air conditioner in the bedroom, assuming we can still get private parking and a spectacular view.
