We really enjoyed our stay at the villa. The setting and views were spectacular. It is well worth the walk down to the beach. We were greeted at the port by the housekeeper. This was brilliant as it helped us to find the house. The house was lovely, the air-conditioning in the rooms all worked well. It could perhaps have been improved a little by an outside barbecue so that we could have cooked some of the wonderful locally caught fish which was on sale from lots of fishmongers in vans in Lipari. We enjoyed Francescos recommendations os meals at at the Agritourismo up the hill and at the the little restaurant on the beach in Acquacalde. Francesco gave us loads of useful information about the local area. Many thanks - we hope to return!
