The apartment is simple, clean and well equipped. It is very near the beach and some restaurants , shops and a perfect location for visiting Lipari and other parts of the island as it is so near the bus stop and taxi-boat. The air conditioning in the apartment worked very well and there is also a lovely outdoor space and kitchen for dining and drying laundry. Bernard and his family were lovely hosts. He speaks Italian and English fluently and was very welcoming and helpful, even taking our family on a boat trip to a nearby beach. Would highly recommend a stay here.
