This is a very spacious apartment, the bottom floor of a house built into a cliff above Taormina. The view from the terrace is breathtaking, especially at sunrise. Alessandro and his parents live upstairs and are wonderful, helpful hosts who are there immediately if you have a question or problem. The apartment is located about a kilometer above the start of Taormina town center. It is a very steep walk and took us about 15 minutes each time. This property is set up for self-catering and you should bring supplies with you. A town market selling produce, fresh fish and meat is open in the morning when you walk down into town. The hosts provided us with drinking water. Having a safe place to park our car was a real plus for us: Taormina is not a place to drive and find parking!
