We spent 5 days at Miriam’s place and it was great. Property is exactly as described. The very large balcony has 180 degrees view and it’s impressive. You will spend 95% of your time on this balcony . Very easy self check in and out. Book it without second guessing .

The good: Beautiful view; spacious patio, centrally located near stores, bus station, train station restaurants, bars and grocery. Easy check-in; Very helpful host. The not so good: Noisy neighbors, motorcycles, car horns and ambulances. Exhaust from cars, spotty wi-fi; heavily perfumed apartment, hot tub wouldn't heat.

The apartment was clean, convenient to get to, and there was ample street parking for the rental car. The view of the ocean from the terrace is spectacular. The hot tub was a nice plus. The kitchen is small but was fine. The interior furnishings are dated (time to buy new bedspreads and throw pillows) but also were fine. Wonderful location in Naxos!

This is by far one of the most beautiful homes and locations we have ever stayed in. The entire apartment was decorated with care and comfort in mind. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was large, bright, clean and in excellent condition. The kitchen was a delight with everything we would have needed had we planned on cooking. But we enjoyed eating breakfast there since the balcony was a bit too warm and sunny early on in the day. But a little later on, the balcony was incredible. Magnificent views with the ocean right across the street! The sound of the waves while we drank coffee in the evenings was perfect. And then there are Italian blinds -- terrific!. They kept the rooms dark and private, or allowed sunshine and the wonderful Sicilian wind into the apartment. Thank you for sharing this delightful retreat!

Too many good things to list... the view is better than one can imagine from pictures, especially! Very roomy and has all the essentials ; quiet block in a lovely town close to restaurants, shops etc. Short cab or bus hop to Taormina. We used the beach to the left of the apartment and the snorkeling there is great! it's rocky but safer than it looks i promise. So lovely, relaxing, no faults - we loved it :)

Host was great and home is beautiful, we did not want to leave! We hope to return again soon.

Comfortable apartment with a fabulous terrace overlooking the bay. Lots of great restaurants and lidos nearby.

We found the property easily (a short walk from the bus stop) and checked in via key safes. The apartment is spacious and unusual in its layout - the bedrooms were comfortable and the air con meant we all slept well even during the heatwave. The terrace is the big selling point however - it’s huge and the view is stunning. It offered shade and breezes when the temperature soared. The neighbourhood has a few decent restaurants with more around 15/20 mins walk away. We also took buses and taxis to Taormina and a Godfather guided tour. Miriam was very helpful throughout our stay and this apartment is a great place to stay.

This apartment is located right on the shore with magnificent views- if weather permits you will spend your time here. Equipped with all you need to enjoy your time at the beach. Walking distance to supermarket, restaurants, bus stops and the water!

The terrace! The kitchen! The location! Spectacular is all I can say!

Good experience

What a beautiful stay at Miriams. The whole apartment was so absolutely beautiful. The patio was spectacular! Miriam was gracious and despite language barriers we communicate just fine!

The property was very clean, the view was amazing, and it was conveniently close to restaurants and Taormina. Highly recommend

Wonderful apartment on second floor, with amazing water/beach views and a hot tub! Host was helpful and directions were good to get in and around town. Kitchen had what we needed and washer was in good condition. We took a taxi up ti Taormina and found the bus to come back. Day trips to Valley of the Temples and Siracusa were great. Lovely area and nice folks.

Love this place. It will be a great memory. I cannot believe you could find a better rental if you like a patio. 40 steps were a bit as we had lots of luggage but were doable even though seniors. Trust me …you will not be disappointed

My wife and I stayed two nights at this property, transitioning from Rome to Taormina, Sicily. The location is very charming, and the property is spacious and classy. Nothing overly new or modern, but nicely furnished, with an outside, 2nd-story balcony that is really the jewel of the entire property. The hot tub is very nice, particularly in the evening. One suggestion might be to inform the owner in advance of your arrival if you intend on using it, as it was off upon our arrival, with water at 68 degrees. We were unable to use the first evening, as it took several hours to heat to 102. Communication from the owner is fantastic, and check in & out were both quick and easy.

Great location with stunning views of the Ocean. Miriam was very responsive. Highly recommend.

The property is spacious, comfortable and clean. A wonderful home away from home. The balcony is amazing and was where we spent most of our time. The host was responsive and very helpful. Naxos is great because it’s away from the touristy Taormina but had easy access when we wanted to. Had no problem getting parking right out front. This was a great base for exploring and to unwind and had all the amenities we needed. It was wonderful to have coffee and basics in the kitchen to get us going and they even left us a lovely bottle of wine! The one thing I will say is that because it was November and the off season, most things in Naxos were closed which limited our options for dinner and availability of tours. Not a reflection on the property, just an observation on the time of year. Once we figured out what was open we quite enjoyed coming back to our quiet home away from home. I would imagine in the high season it’s quite the happening place! This was our first time in Sicily and I think there is more to discover. Would definitely stay here again.

Couldn't ask for a more beautiful or majestic view of the sea from an expansive and private deck. Also loved the friendly, family neighborhood.

Seafront apartment was stunning. The terrace with views on the sunrise and sea were amazing. The apartment was well equipped and enjoyed preparing meals in the kitchen with views all around. There is a local supermarket that is well stocked and the butchers next door was excellent with warm fresh bread every day. There was plenty of bars and restraunts around if you can tear yourself away from the terrace and the hot tub.

The deck is larger than it appears in photos. We pretty much lived there. The apartment is also quite large and the kitchen is well stocked. Miriam was very helpful with any requests that we had. Location is central to many restaurants and the main bus stop for visiting Taormina is a couple short blocks away. Would definitely stay here again.

Staying in this apartment allowed my family to enjoy both the beach and Taromina. We were away from the hustle and bustle of tourists while experiencing everything the area has to offer. The apartment’s terrace was simply stunning and we had meals overlooking the sea. One night there was a fireworks display along the coastline. Would love to come back!

We rented because of the view...absolutely magnificent.! The deck is massive. A great spot for morning coffee as you watch the sun rise. The apartment has classical style furniture (many antiques) and is also very lovely. The advertisement for the unit states that it is in Taormina but from my understanding this apartment is in the Giardini Naxos and Taormina is about 15 minutes drive up into the mountain. We are more beach people so didn't mind taking a bus to go visit/shopping in Taormina as there isn't much shopping near the apartment...more restaurants. All in all, if you want to be close to the water, this is a great apartment.

Una graziosa proprietà, comoda e strategica per brevi soggiorni in zona.

This property's view is fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very walkable to beach areas and train station. We did take cabs up to Taormina which were affordable and easy to get. Very cool place with fantastic terrace.

We had a little trouble finding the property, because the listing says Taormina but the property is actually in Giardini Naxos. Nice we got there none of that mattered. The views from the house and deck are fantastic. We spent the afternoon relaxing on the deck. There are nice restaurants within walking distance.

Loved everything but the ants in the house. Hosts manager brought me a can of ant spray.

Good location and deck and patio area very nice. Close to shopping and restaurants'. Nearby Tormina and Roman ruins and Mt. Etna a plus.

Listing was terrific - exactly as pictured. Very happy

The property is perfect for visiting Taormina and Mt Etna area. Location is on the beach in Guardino Naxos, 1.6 km from Taormina. The terrace is where you will be most of your time. Table, chairs,loungers,umbrella, and a gas grill. Fully furnished kitchen with a small table if you have to be inside. Washing machine works great but no dryer. Plenty of drying racks,clotheslines and clothes pins. Air conditioning in bedrooms only. Lots of narrow stairs up to the apt. Parking can be a challenge depending on the time and day. Apartments below unit and facade all under construction. Might be like that for a while. Check in and out easy once you find the place. House numbers removed so look for green scaffolding. Best for seasoned travelers.

Tutto benissimo, disponibilità e flessibilità eccelsa, posto incantevole!

This property greatly exceeded our expectations. A beautiful apartment with a fantastic outside patio. Great location and very close to everything - grocery store, coffee shop and very nice restaurants. Although not dedicated parking, we never had a problem finding a close-by space on the street. Would have no issues staying there again or recommending it to friends & family.
