Taormina, Sicily

[AdamR]

Afternoon,

The other half and I are looking at a week away in Sicily in April. We really like the look of Taormina for a relaxing week where we can chill out by a pool or head down to the beach but still have a nice selection of Restaurants to visit, yet nothing too hectic.

Does anyone have any experience in Taormina or elsewhere in Sicily?

Thanks!

[AdamR]

Not at all, any input is appreciated, thanks!

We considered Palermo but want somewhere fairly quiet, won't rule it out though!

[AdamR]

Thanks all.

Stuttgartmetal, if it's not worth the money, where would you say is on Sicily?

We went to Taormina a few years back and loved it. Relaxing place but with lots to see and visit if you want a trip out.
Some friends went last year on our suggestion and really enjoyed it - thankfully!

Thanks Rick, can I ask where you stayed? And how did you find getting around the local area, i.e. buses etc?
