On the plus side, the views & location are amazing from this apartment (which is actually part of one of the island’s main hotels but located in a separate location up the hill).
The photos are accurate but a little misleading in the sense of space they can leave to the imagination. The apartment is 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchenette and a balcony. While it sleeps 7, it realistically accommodates less - 4 adults or a small family - in terms of amenities & ‘public space’ space.
The plumbing is a bit of an issue - running hot & cold at times, noisy pipes and sometimes just cutting off altogether. This may just be part of island life, but know what to expect.
While Angela could learn a few tricks from ‘Stay Here’ (Netflix series), the daily room Service, ferry transfers & views are great.
I’d recommend looking into taking the upstairs & downstairs apartments for larger groups, asking for beach towels (they are available from the hotel but you wouldn’t know that) and making sure that smile amenities like a bottle opener & lighter are provided.
Panarea itself is amazing. Make sure you hire a boat for at least one day during your stay.
