This appartment and the owners (Giovanna and het husband) are one of the reasons I love Airbnb. The appartment itself is really nice and the view from the balcony is perhaps one of the best I ever had at an airbnb or hotel. Ok, the stairs, from the center of Taormina to the appartment, are really challenging but the view definitely makes up for this.
Also Giovanna and her husband give us great local tips for transportation, restaurants, bars and more.
