Thank you Zaira for your hospitality, and all the useful hints regarding places and restaurants to visit! We had a great time at your place. The house (we lived in the upper apartment) is situated in the very quiet Sant' Alfio with a beautiful view to the sea and Etna from the terrace. Small markets are available nearby, supermarkets are 20 minutes away, in the nearest town in Giarre. The narrow streets are quite adventurous for the first up an downhill drive, we got used to it quite quickly though . The sandy beaches in Naxos and the beautiful city in Taormina is a 30-40 minutes drive from the house.
Alltogether a great week with our family, guided by our very friendly hosts. Thank you again for the home made sweets:)
