Taormina Apartments & Villas (Sicily)
Taormina is a popular and fashionable tourist resort with famously stunning views and a picturesque Graeco-Roman theatre, high above the sea and facing Etna. As an attractive and permanently-fashionable destination, Taormina is known as a delightful but expensive place to stay. Taormina in Sicily, where Hollywood celebrities travelled to receive awards in the Teatro Greco, where a jealous Elizabeth Taylor broke a guitar over Richard Burton's head, and where Goethe and DH Lawrence marvelled at the views towards Etna, is a hill-village with a glossy sheen of glamour. You can rent one of our Taormina apartments or nearny Sicily holiday villas to enjoy a holiday in this area.
A drink at the tables of Caff? Wunderbar in Piazza IX Aprile may set you back a few euros, but you'll be basking where Tennessee Williams and Elizabeth Taylor basked before you. As well as the famed Teatro Greco, there are several minor archaeological sites to be discovered around Taormina. The attractive principal thoroughfare, Corso Umberto is pedestrianised and ideal for strolling and window-shopping. Picturesque lanes above and below the Corso are interesting to explore, while if you want to stretch your legs further there are attractive walks up into the hills, or down to the sea.
Given its compact size, Taormina has a huge range of bars, cafes and restaurants where you can while away pleasant hours while admiring the views. March, April and May are good months to enjoy the sunshine (usually), the flowers and relatively-uncrowded streets and restaurants.
Taormina's rail station is by the sea, far below the town. It also serves the coastal settlement of Giardini Naxos, and the station is therefore named Taormina - Giardini. The station is on the railway line that runs between Messina and Siracusa, and is also served by trains from Rome.
There are some beautiful holiday apartments in the old Sicily towns and also some wonderful Sicily holiday cottages and villas near the coast for your self catering holidays in Italy.
