Stunningly beautiful. It is a breathtaking coast house for some peace and quiet. Much of the activity and the heart of the town of Taormina is up on the hill, a short drive or cable car ride from where this apartment is located. It is not walkable up to town, but that shouldn't deter you because the lodging options up closer to town miss out on the best part of Taormina - the stunning views of the sea and access to the water. We stayed in early October and were able to enjoy time by the pool as well as make it down to the sea. The elevator (or stairs) take you down to a private rock area with tables/chairs/sun loungers and we spent a sunny morning in complete solitude playing cards and drinking wine to the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks. It was bliss!

Lovely place in an amazing location. Private garden with amazing view to Isola Bella. The swimming pool and the private beach were the highlight of our trip. Very close to amazing restaurants and easy access to Isola Bella beach and Taormina centre. Host was very helpful.

The apartment is definitely awesome. Private terrace, beach and pool are amazing. The apartment is huge and contains everything you need. The view is breathtaking. Definitely recommend!

The apartment is well maintained and has all the equipment you would expect. The position is brilliant, with views over Isola Bella. It was great to have access to the shared pool and to have the lift down to the rocky beach (although there are also steps), where there is good snorkelling. (Be aware that the sun goes off both in the afternoon.) It is only about a 15 minute walk to the main beach, where sun beds and boat/snorkel/jetski hire is available. Taormina is accessible by cable car or you can drive up and park. It is a busy town, but well worth the visit for the Greek amphitheatre, gardens, shops, bars and restaurants, or just to meander around. It is a short drive to the motorway, so it is easy to visit other sites. We went to Syracusa, which was well worth it, as well as Etna. The cost to go up the volcano by cable car and 4 wheel drive is expensive, but we are very glad we did it. (It was very windy and cool, so take a coat!)

This place is simply magic! The views are breathtaking and the pool and private beach are fantastic. The villa was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. The lift down to the private beach was very handy. My kids (11 and 15 yrs) loved the ping pong table and the swimming. I knew this would be a lovely place, but the only word I have is “wow”. Easy parking, a beautiful private courtyard looking out at the ocean and the air conditioning were all fantastic. My family of four loved it! Mario and Laura were responsive - Laura even came back to help us get the air conditioner working (a switch that we couldn’t find). We stayed for 6 nights and simply loved it!,

Underbart ställe, enormt vacker plats! Det är ganska trafikerat utanför och vägarna är inte direkt anpassade för gångtrafik men vi hade en härlig vistelse!
