Absolutely stay here. Carmela's place was a wonderful experience. The views in the pictures were accurate (and even better in real life!). The home was clean and comfortable and spacious with a working stove and refrigerator. The location is on Canneto, which is a five-ten minute walk down some steps straight to the beach. And Canneto is about a five-ten minute bus ride from Lipari (an area with more shops and restaurants and the two ports). The best part about staying at Carmela's place was Carmela herself and her family. Her sons drove us to the grocery store on the way to the apartment and answered quickly when we texted him with any questions. Her other son helped us get a tour and drove us to the port for our tour of other islands. They went out of their way always to make us comfortable and help in any way. Carmela herself was kind and made us jams and cookies upon our arrival! Both my friend and I highly suggest Carmela's place! Expect an incredible view, kind people, and a relaxing time :)
