It was one of the first properties to spring up in Taormina when it was built back in 1904, and is even bordered by the remnants of a Greco-Roman wall. Landscaped gardens encircle the hotel building, giving the whole place a tranquil feel. Orange, almond and carob trees line the terraced walkways which lead down to the pool, while tall pines offer plenty of shady spots. The pool itself sits at the bottom of 92 steps, and comes with panoramic sea views.” Mr C and I chuckled about those eggs. They were gathered up by the hotel staff every evening. We wondered if they were being nurtured to hatch. On the last evening there was not an egg to be seen… Thank goodness we were flying home the next day ;-) From the hotel website:

It needs a dedicated post to explain the history. This Greek Theatre changed over the years including changes by the Romans. It needs a dedicated post to explain the history.
