With its dramatic, cliffside setting and expansive sea views, this home transports you to an instant state of relaxation. And while it feels like entering an idyllic retreat, you’ll find it’s also just a short walk from Taormina’s historic centre – providing the perfect opportunity to connect with the magic of Mediterranean living. Spread across multiple levels, there’s a self-contained apartment on the lower floor, while the second floor features a fully equipped kitchen, dining room and terrace – ensuring there's an abundance of space to relax and share quality time together. From quiet morning swims in the pool, delicious Italian lunches on the balcony and lazy afternoons on a sun lounger, every moment promises to be enriched by the mesmerising views across the Sicilian coast. Exercise enthusiasts will also appreciate the home gym, while the surrounding hills provide a wonderful opportunity for invigorating walks. You’ll find steps leading down to the beaches of Mazzarò and Isola Bella (or you can take a cable car), while the restaurants and shops of Taormina are just a ten-minute walk away.
