Everything was well-maintained, had a wonderful stay at Villa Ducale-attentive service. Our junior suite was contemporary and tastefully decorated, had sea view. The sincere staff offered us a delicious breakfast. Location: the hotel was just off the private beaches and/or ' downtown ' Taormina as well as a hill outside Taormina, on the windy road to Castelmola. Bar Bar Turrisi located 1 km away was a nice surprise.
