The flat itself is beautiful, and in a great location- right on the Main Street in Taormina. Just one step out of the door and you are right in the centre. There are also two terraces with wonderful views over the sea and the rooftops, where we enjoyed an evening drink.
Due to being in the centre, there is a lot of noise (and I mean a lot). There is a bar at the bottom of the terrace that is open very late, and we were kept up on the Saturday night with screaming and shouting until about 3am, despite wearing earplugs, so do be aware of this if booking.
We felt that the amenities in the flat really let it down. The kitchen wasn’t very well equipped, with no kettle and no coffee machine (despite the listing saying there was one). There was no tea towel or extra bin bags that we could find.
The ‘glassware’ is mainly plastic glasses that weren’t very clean, and one of the only glass cups in the cupboard was chipped and cracked, and had not been removed. There was also no hairdryer, despite this being listed, just an empty box in the bathroom.
Although the terrace had lovely views, it looked a bit sad- dead plants in pots that were being used as ashtrays.
Despite the above, we did enjoy our stay in Taormina but would not book again if revisiting.
