Marco's house is nice with a beautiful and large balcony with sea view. We particularly enjoyed the balcony during breakfast and barbecues, it was great.
We haven't met Marco but we met his dad who was very nice.
When we arrived there was a gas leak in the kitchen and no heaters in the bedrooms and it was freezing cold in the evening.
But the next day the gas leak was fixed (some pipes were replaced) and they installed 2 stoves in the bedrooms so we were all good.
The boiler is quite small, meaning that once you've taken a shower you have to wait before getting hot water again.
There's 1 beautiful rocky beach accessible by walking and then the Zingaro reserve is 1 km away from the house.
The nearest village is Scopello with restaurants and gelateria and there's a small store nearby selling all the local fruits/veggies/ham/meat/pastries/etc ...
