Antonio was friendly, helpful and welcoming. The apartment was simple, clean and comfortable with a small but lovely outdoor terrace which was great a place to eat breakfast in view of Mount Etna. The kitchen was small but we managed and it was useful having two bathrooms. There are a lot of steps to/from the apartment which may be something to bear in mind.
The villa complex itself is in a beautiful elevated spot which is just a short walk away from the bars, shops and restaurants of Taormina. We loved the view over the town, coast and of Mount Etna. The pool, quiet sun terrace and flowers everywhere made it a very relaxing and beautiful spot. Everyone around (gardner, Antonio's father etc) were very friendly but left you to your own thing.
All in all I would recommend this apartment as it's in a beautiful, convenient spot and is great value for money. We were three very happy ladies!
