Our host Maurizio and his family were absolutely wonderful people. They made us feel welcome in their home as we were part of the family. Maurizio is such an easy going man and he was a big help in getting free parking for our rental car. Everyone knows Maurizio in Taormina. It was like waling with the mayor through the town. Everyone stopped to shack his hand and say hello. The apartment was just as was advertised. It had all the things we wanted and was a great place for us to stay in. The view from the balcony is breathtaking. The location was A1 right in the heart of the town and right next to the life that got us down to the beach everyday. We highly recommend anyone going to Taormina to stay at Maurizio's place. I know if we go back to this heaven on earth we will be staying there.
