Maurizio and Mina were the best hosts ever. Right when we arrived, they came to greet us with a nice Prosecco and great Italian coffee. Then they gave us a tour and told us a lot about the good places to visit or eat around the apartment. The apartment is even better than the photos. The location is also the best if you travel to Taormina or Catania or Syracuse. You can simply walk to the beach, it is literally infront of the apartment. The apartment is on second floor (lift available) so we had a great view during the day and also at night. You can see Taormina and rest of the Giardini Naxos from the balcony. We spent a lot of time on the balcony as it was spacious and had a perfect table for breakfast. There are some shops around so you can buy whatever you need. In the apartment you have everything you might need when you are on vacation!! Towel, bedsheets, kitchen stuff, various alcoholic drinks!, TV, Shampoo or soap, hairdryer…even an umbrella to take to the beach when it is too sunny.
The beach infront of the apartment has the option for free and private so you can choose yourself. There is a restaurant called La Cambusa which Maurizio recommended to us and it was so dreamy at night with delicious food. If you wanna go to Taormina, it is less than half an hour drive by car, but there is also a bus! if you are fit enough, you can even walk (but it is a bit tricky when the road gets narrow or it is dark..).
We would definitely go back to this place and totally would recommend staying at this apartment if you are visiting Sicily.
Last but not the least, in case you have a car, don’t worry, you can park it in the garage and don’t have to waste time looking for a parking place.
