Anita's apartment in Taormina is the perfect base to explore the town and surrounding area. Situated above the main street, the view from the balcony is fantastic and the perfect place for watching the crowds go by. Its a tasteful street - normally I would choose a quieter location, but in this case being in the heart of the town is perfect. The apartment is well appointed and decorated in tasteful and fun way. Sculptures and artworks by Anita's husband are dotted around the flat, and the host is close at hand in the art shop just outside the front door of the flat. Anita was very helpful, guiding us to the best restaurants, beach clubs, and Etna mountain tours available. This local knowledge is essential to getting the most from the town - especially if your stay is brief. Ask Anita to organise airport transfers for you to avoid being overcharged by the airport drivers. I totally recommend this apartment and will be returning as soon as I can.
