A beautiful villa. Clean, well decorated, everything we needed was there. The driveway (as mentioned in other reviews) is very steep, but worth it for the lovely views! and Giovanni helped us up the hill with our luggage. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms modern. Check in and check out were easy and flexible. We knew that Giovanni was only a phone call away, but we had no problems. The location is great to walk to the beach or get the cable car to Taormina. There were four of us in this big villa and it was perfect for a relaxing week away.
