My husband and I spent one week at Bellissimo Vista Mare 2 and the apartment was comfortable and cosy with a view of the water from the terrace upstairs, and all that was advertised. We appreciated having an upstairs room with bathroom and terrace to give us a little more room and to have an outdoor place to sit and eat or to have a drink. The rooms are small but all we needed for a short stay. There are around 5 steps that lead up to the bed and several flights of stairs leading to the apartment, which were fine for us but not if we get much older. The apartment is quiet since it isn't on the street.

The location is excellent, with a good pizza place, small store with deli and fish and chips place in the same block. A short distance away were coffee shops, restaurants and the Fort where there is a great swimming place.

Daniela was very responsive by email and hired a taxi for transportation from the train station and to the Catania airport when we left.
