We had a lovely stay at Giovanna's place. The view of the ocean from the patio is wonderful! It is a 3 minute walk to the beach. We were greeted with cannoli and a bottle of olive oil, which Giovanna's husband makes.
They gave us ride to see Erice, a medieval town about 30 minutes away, which is a must see! And helped us get to the airport when we had a misunderstanding with our taxi driver. Highly recommended location and hosts!
