This was probably our best airbnb experience so far. Andrea and his family made all the difference. They live nearby and were always on hand (though never intrusive) to help if we needed it. The house is great. It feels very Sicilian and is furnished with lovely things, not Ikea stuff. Even when it is hot outside it is cool inside.
The space outside is large, and there is a lot of privacy. The pool is very near, though even though it is shared with the people in the other house, we could not hear it in the house and if was really a nice situation.
We had a fantastic lunch with Andrea and his family. It felt like we were visiting friends, not renting a house.

This area of Sicily is greener and perhaps less touristy than some areas. We loved the nearby town of Riposto, with nice restaurants (Stella di Mare is nice on the seafront), cafes and small shops. Almost no tourists in July, just locals.
Sant'Alfio is is small town nearby and it has nice cafes selling gelato and great coffee.

We really do recommend this house!
