The School
The school is located in the heart of Taormina, one of the most popular and important cities in Sicily. Taormina lies high above Monte Tauro, directly over the Bay of Naxos. The deep blue bay and the nearby, often smoldering, Mt. Aetna create a spectacular view.
The school is located in a four-story, 19th Century building, surrounded by the gorgeous city park and public tennis courts with a view of the ionic sea and the awe-inspiring volcano. There is an panoramic view of Taormina from the roof terrace and the lounge.
The school also provides access via wireless and free internet connections.
