We loved our stay at this place! I stayed with my two sons of 6 and 4 years old. It was close to a little beach (with a very nice restaurant as well, Remezzo, with lovely view of the caldera). We did not have a car, but it was no problem, the ancient site is at walking distance, and just a little bit further is the red beach, which we really enjoyed. We only saw Nicholas at the beginning and Kely at the end of our stay, they don't live there. They did provide us with some drinks when we arrived, which was very nice. Their mother Maria does live there, and although she doesn't speak english, we were able to communicate really well. She was really nice and gave us some eggs from the chicken. We also absolutely fell in love with the two cats! We had a lovely time, and I would totally recommend this place.
