My boyfriend and I truly enjoyed our stay at Livio's apartment in Stazzo. He greeted us upon our arrival and showed us around the apartment. Livio speaks very good English which was very helpful with our rather limited Italian.
The apartment itself felt like home being away from home. It is very spacious and well furnished and it would be perfect for either short term or longer stay. The biggest plus is a balcony with sea view and the sea being in such close proximity. We truly enjoyed our morning coffee and relaxing time in the balcony watching and listening to the sea.
The village itself is quite small so it helps having a car. Speaking of which the apartment offers a personal parking place which was very helpful indeed. It is easy to explore the island from the location and a visit to Taormina and the little fishing villages of Aci Trezza and Aci Castello is a must.
Overall we truly enjoyed our two nights at Livio's apartment and would definitely come back and recommend it to others.
