Beautiful home under My Etna!! When we arrived there was volcanic debris on the patio from a recent eruption, very cool to be so close. The neighborhood has a lot of dogs that bark on site, but they are all fenced in so not big problem unless you have a fear of dogs. We were there at the start of September and with the windows open we were plenty cool at night without AC. The house seems to have some electrical problems since the kitchen appliances didn't work consistently and I had trouble finding an outlet to charge my phone. Driving up the "street" to the house is not for the faint of heart, but we managed in our little rental car. It's minutes from the main town and we actually walked to a nearby restaurant for dinner one night. Lovely place overall!!
