This place is great. Perfect. We had ten days here at the start of our three week long trip to in Sicily, and Scopello, Zingaro and this place as the base for our trips, was the absolute best. We really want to come back.
We especially appreciated the porch / veranda with the sun roof. That's where we had our late breakfasts before going down to the sea, and where we had our dinners after being out all day.
Eliana was a great host, who gave us advice on where to eat and shop, and was quick to help us when there was a hole in the mosquito net on the bed room. I got fixed instantly.
The house is one of many on a compound, but it was never crowded or noisy. It is the last house in a row, and perhaps that makes it more quiet than the others, I don't know.
The beach was clean, with a lot of fishes to look for when snorkling, and a small bar where the owner let me come back to pay for our lunch the next day, when I didn't have cash on me. These small things are important in making you feel welcome. Which we most certainly did.
Scopello felt like a hidden gem for us. Yes, of course there are other tourists there, but not as many as elsewhere on Sicily.
