The apartment was immaculate and the host and hostess were so kind. We had gourmet chocolate and hand made Sicilian soap for us. The apartment was tastefully remodeled and decorated. It had everything we needed, including a washer AND dryer, which is very hard to find. There is a nice view of the sea, olive trees, palms and other fruit trees from the bathroom window. About a 10 minute walk to the main shopping street where you will find high end fashion and over 200 restaurants. A nice market is about a 2 minute walk. I highly recommend this apartment!
