A great apartment in a group of other apartments (maybe 4 or so) with a shared pool for use. A very private feel to the complex. You'd barely know the other people are there when you're in your apartment. The group of apartments is by the 'Porta Piano' - a headland/parking area just below the town of Taormina. It's down a road past Taormina's very pretty Cemetery and you get great views of the town from the apartment.
it's probably a 10/15 minute uphill-walk to the main street of the town/The Funivia cable car (which will take you to the beach). It's a 20/30 minute walk from the apartment to the other side of Taormina (porta Catania).
It's a little bit of a climb for the first part of the walk (to get to the Cable car) but easy enough!
Pancrazio was an excellent host and the apartment is clean, modern, and has everything you'd need. Great communication from Pancrazio as well. He met us on arrival, explained everything perfectly, and was on hand for any questions.
I'd recommend staying here if you want some privacy/to be slightly out of town - but still want to get everywhere quite easily.
