This is a clean, spacious and bright apartment in the small town of Riposto. The apartment has a very new feel to it and looks exactly as in the pictures. Giovanni and his wife were responsive on email and the check-in experience was great. This is a great location at the intersection between Taormina, Syracuse, Catania and Etna - we used this apartment as transit point on our way from Taormina to Syracuse. The town itself isn’t much so only consider it an intermediate stop, though you can walk to a pebbly beach and a few good places to eat in town. I highly recommend Giovanni’s place for people considering accommodation in the area and ability to move around in a car.
