Antonio was the host that one could only dream of. He is very professional, but also very caring/welcoming as a person that makes you feel like you are staying at a close friend's house. I was travelling on my own and Antonio made time to help me plan my travels around south-east Sicily using Acireale as a base. Each day, he drew maps for me and gave me advice, and checked upon me during the day with quick texts, just to make sure that I was ok (I am a new driver and was a little nervous about driving in Sicily on my own). Antonio also helped me with parking my rental car in the building each day and was overall just a wonderful person and a host. I would highly recommend staying at Antonio's in Acireale if you are considering exploring this part of Sicily!
