We went to Taormina for two weeks, in April 2022, to learn some Italian at the Babilonia language school. Tina’s apartment is just three minutes’ walk from the school (six from the Amphitheater) and it borders on the main restaurant district. A perfect location to discover the town.
It is a really attractive and charming apartment. Taormina was not a noisy place and the apartment was quiet at night even with the window open.
The first impression as you come up the stairs into the living room is wonderful. The main room is large, light and airy with large windows and panoramic views. Walking onto the pretty balcony or going further up onto the very large roof terrace, it offers seascapes, townscapes, trees, mountains, castles and sea air. On the sixth floor, it is one of the highest apartments in the area with uninterrupted views of Etna.

It is fully equipped as a family home and provided everything we needed to live, cook and wash without needing to shop for little things like kitchen paper, spices and olive oil.
Thank you to Tina and her sister Paola, who looked after us. We enjoyed our stay in your apartment.
Living in an authentic Taormina home while taking the first steps in learning the language was the perfect Sicilian/Italian experience for us.
