The place is inside Taormina (I thought it was in an adjacent town), but(!) requires a steep 5-minutes climbing to get to the public gardens, and from there to the main streets of the city. The place has two levels - the top floor is the apartment and the lower floor is the private pool. The place is spacious, stylish and has a really breathtaking view.
However, it's a bit worn out and could use some retouches or a minor renovation. Still we had a great time, really enjoying the pool, the apartment, the view and being close to the city center.
