We had a wonderful stay a Emilias place. It started with a very friendly welcome with a karaf of wine and a bowl full of fruits. She and her friends took time to give a lot of tips about places worth visiting and restaurants worth eating.
We loved the garden. We stayed here for 5 nights with 2 kids (age 10 and 13). Everything you need is there.
Plus points:
-spaceous enough place
-nice garden
-outsite kitchen with bbq possibility
-good beds!
-lot of cupboards and closets
-clean place
-shady/ cool place inside
-towels and bedlinnen included
-big inside kitchen
-wifi (sometimes slow) available
-everything you need is here, for example washing machine, tv (digital, sometimes no signal) dishwasher, oven, etc, even a heater or fan.
-beach and restaurants nearby
-playground for kids in the street around the corner
-still a quiet place
-One day visit to Etna is possible from here, it is a 2 hour drive one way.
-Emilia was available by phone if something was needed or in case of emergency ( was not nesesary in our case)
The only thing we might have missed:
- sometimes the hot water run out fast (although within an hour it was warm again)
- a coutch to sit or "hang" on after a busy day
-some games like cards to play
We definately recomend this place! Emilia is a perfect host...
