  Spectacular Views of the Sea

  Excellent location. Spectacular views of the Ionian Sea from all windows, including, the bathroom. The room was large and could have easily accommodated three people. There is even a table and chairs set with china and crystal. The room has a private access to a large, wrap-around terrace overlooking the sea and Taormina - a perfect place for enjoying breakfast and relaxing in lounge chairs. Breakfasts offer a generous selection of cheese, traditional meat, fruit, yogurt, pastries, boiled eggs, juice and coffee prepared by pleasant and thoughtful Adriana. The bed is comfortable. The room is quiet, thanks to the elevation and high-quality windows. Public transportation is available on the street below - local buses provide easy transportation to the castle and swimming beaches. A gondola across the street provides novel transport to a stone beach - best for picking up an enjoyable, 50-minute boat tour, lunch, shell collecting or renting chairs and umbrellas. (The beach is pretty and clean, but jellyfish are in residence, even in mid-May. Larger sand beaches are great for swimming.) We were, graciously, welcomed by Mossimiliano. Not being able to find a parking space and not being certain if we had found the B&B in the pouring rain, we called from a petrol station. Immediately, he came to our rescue with an umbrella, transported our luggage and even assisted us into a parking space where the car remained for five days. Restaurants and historical sites can be accessed on foot or public transportation, nearby. The historical property is well-maintained and has good security in a nice neighborhood. Upon arrival a plate of cannoli was waiting for us in the rooms fridge. The heat had been turned on to take the chill out of the room. The sun soon reappeared and shutters were opened to the pure air and views of the sea. Many thanks to Adriana and Mossiliano for their excellent hospitality and exceptional English that accommodated our limited Italian. Five nights was not long enough.
