Although it is difficult to find at first, once there, the apartment is perfect for us, a family of 2 adults and 2 children. The pool is warm enough for us in October, and the hosts are generous and very helpful. They provided a welcome pack, which was very useful as we arrived quite late at night. Everything was as expected, with some extras added, for example fruit and herbs from the garden. Fausto's father stayed in the attic throughout our stay, and was always on hand without being intrusive. You do need a car for this area, but the local sites, towns and beaches are wonderful. As well as trips further afield. It is possible to visit Syracuse in one day trip, or Agrigento for a longer trip. There is a new extension of the autostrada towards Syracuse that makes this possible. We even managed to see Mount Etna in the distance. Wonderful.
