Located on a shady tree-lined courtyard between the San Domenico Palace and central pedestrian zone of Taormina, this late night lounge and trendy hangout is a visual juxtaposition of everything around. By day the glassy white façade features a walk-up bar and interior lounge ignited by plasma TV's and minimalist white furnishings. By night it's a lively hangout for stylish locals and visiting fashion-types. No more than a single compact room, it doesn't take much to bring this ultra-sleek cocktail bar to capacity. An outdoor patio is assembled in cozy white décor with a consistent crowd of 20-30-somethings resigned to that fact that this is Taormina's only cool disco bar.
Tips
Don’t expect a lot out of nightlife during Taormina’s spring and fall shoulder seasons. Summer, however, attracts a consistent crowd for weekend’s apres-beach scene and late-night theme parties held in coordination with nearby Déjà vu.
Last Word
Taormina’s one cool cocktail lounge is located directly opposite the town’s one cool dance club (minus those in Naxos of course). By night are area comes alive with dressed-up locals and stylish visitors who crisscross the candlelit courtyard between the two popular hangouts looking for available singles and conversation.
