🍴🍝 Eat delicious pasta vongele and seafood at the cute and famous Osteria Da Rita. Note; this place is very popular (and for good reason), they don't provide booking in advance, so you have to wait outside in a line. Yep, it’s true! But trust me, it’s worth the wait 🦪🍷 Osteria Da Rita has 4.5 on TripAdvisor rating ⭐"

🍴🎠🥀🍷 Wine and dine at Nunziatina. This is such a stunning place with an exclusive and colorful interior design. The service is also great, plus food and drinks are amazing. This is a place you want to dress up for a nice evening out! Nunziatina has 4.5 on TripAdvisor rating ⭐

☕🍋 Experience the authentic Granite Artigianli (literally slush with wipped cream on top), broiche and a coffee at Bam Bar 🍧🍩 The scenery of this place has a very Sicilian vibe, especially the tables. Psst, I also noticed that a scene from White Lotus was also shooted here! Bam Bar has 4.5 on TripAdvisor rating ⭐"

It is only a short 3-minute walk to the main street, Corso Umberto. This is were all happens - the restaurants, the beautiful street and authentic vibe. You can easily access the beach by taking the Cable Cart down for 3 € per person. Otherwise it is a steep and warm walk down during summertime.

Hotel Ariston is a 4 star hotel with a perfect location for a stay in Taormina! The sea view from the hotel is outstanding, and there is only a 10-12 minute walking distance quite straight forward to you enter the main street. To access Isola Bella and Mazzaro beach, you can walk a stairway downhill that will take you approximately 20, or take the nearby cable car. The main bus terminal is basically Hotel Ariston next door neighbor (which is super convenient if you are dependent on the bus from Catania, Naxos, the airport etc).
