Lejlighed og omgivelser var helt magiske, med den mest vidunderlige udsigt. Vi var seks voksne og vi have masser af plads. Det var meget rent og poolområdet var lækker. Det skal siges, at vi var afsted den fra den 28.10 til 4.11. , så der var ikke så mange mennesker. Vil varmt anbefale stedet.
We absolutely loved our stay! Marco was a great host! We even had a beautiful tray of cannoli’s!
A wonderful apartment in a beautiful location. The apartment was fully equipped and we so enjoyed the pool and private beach. Thank you Cristina for your seamless service and to Macro, thank you for being the most amazing host. Meeting us on arrival and providing an orientation of the apartment and surrounding area was invaluable for our stay in Taormina. The traditional Sicilian cakes were delicious! Your thoughtfulness was much appreciated.
Super beliggenhet. Enkel standard, men godt renhold. Sol til 14 på sommeren. Litt langt til Taormina, men desto kortere til egen privat strand og nydelig basseng. Benyttet buss til/fraTaormina på kvelden.
This place was an incredible location to experience the beach at Taormina. We couldn’t have asked for a more convenient way to swim everyday. It’s been noted in other reviews but the three bedrooms are all detached from one another. This was no problem for us but flagging in case you’re traveling with young kids. Would absolutely stay here again!
Bijzonder tevreden over het gehele proces, de ruimte, het zwembad, toegang naar de zee, de tips van Mario en Christina. Het was er heerlijk om te verblijven, goede airco, mooi uitzicht prima zwembad en een heerlijke zee.
Meget flot beliggenhed med fantastisk udsigt. Privat strand med liggestole. Meget venlige og god information om stedet og mulighederne af vært ved ankomst og altid hurtig respons når vi havde spørgsmål. Huset var meget rent og ryddeligt. Virkelig et sted der mere ene 100% lever op til forventningerne.
This is a great apartment. The views are amazing, there is a fantastic private beach area for the complex right at the base of the cliffs below and a great pool area. The public beach, and beach side shops and restaurants are a 10 minute walk, and you can get a bus up to the main Taormina town about 200m away or the cable car about 500m away. The bus is easy and frequent so we used that the most. Marco and Christina were amazing to deal with - so helpful and communicative, and went out of their way to help with transport options and other recommendations. FYI for those unfamiliar with Taormina, walking around the area requires walking along the edge of the narrow streets and there are usually no footpaths. The traffic usually moves pretty slowly but this might be something to consider if with children.
We have just returned from an amazing stay and would thoroughly recommend. Marco was great with correspondence before we arrived with brilliant instructions for arrival. He recommended restaurants and places to visit. The accommodation was perfect and well equipped. A short 10 minute walk to the nearest amenities and a little further to the lift up to the beautiful Taormina. The view was stunning looking over Isola Bella. We would certainly stay again.

The location and views are stunning! Steps down to the beach and up to the old town are a great workout and worth the effort. Magical at night! Lovely restaurants and such friendly people. The bedrooms are quite far apart if privacy is a priority.
