Antonella is a fabulous host, even putting up with us turning up early. The front courtyard is really great and is especially beautiful alight in the evening (great lights). The location is great (for Trapini, Erice, San Vito La Capo, Zingaro Nature reserve etc) and Antonella gave excellent suggestions for sights and food (Il Cortille was great, thanks! None close by though). I was able to swim every morning out the front of the house (access via slipway required a little adventurous spirit!) and there is even a small 'fountain' in the courtyard to rinse off bathers etc. The house was clean, traditional and very homely. Even a couple of bikes were available for use (but not for long distances!)
The rear courtyard with the BBQ etc really catches the morning sunshine and would be a great place to sit or eat.
The area felt safe and homely, even though we were out of main season.
I think visitors should be aware that there is no WiFi (maybe a translation issue?), parking is actually out the front as rear courtyard is locked (but it was fine and in full view) and there is just 1 AC unit in the hallway for the 2 bedrooms (but this was OK too with the door left ajar). We found the additional condenser box on top of the fridge to be a bit noisy (just close kitchen door at night but that does make it a bit warm in the kitchen !). Bathroom was clean and had everything you need/want.
So the key question is: Would we stay there again ?...…. Despite a few things that I would have preferred to have known about before the visit (e.g. WiFi) the answer is … Yes! We really enjoyed our time there and the location was great and Antonella, well what can we say..... I wish ALL hosts were as friendly, hospitable and helpful as her. Love you!
