Carolina and Antonio were the most caring and wonderful hosts we have met on our travels. The welcome was fantastic with wine and even home made jams and jellies. They have helped to make our stay as interesting and relaxing as possible.
The apartment is excellent, beautifully equipped, spacious and very quiet and private...definitely even nicer than the pictures suggest. But undoubtedly the best thing is the view...sitting out on the balcony in the sunshine all day or on cooler days sitting inside looking out of the French windows, at a glorious vista of the sea.
Sampieri is a quiet and beautiful little village with a small supermarket, vegetable and fruit shop and bakery...so everything is available within 5 minutes walking.
The beach is the most beautiful in the area as there is a protected woodland behind the beach and sand dunes so it is completely unspoilt.
Public transport is difficult if you don't have a car, but there are trains from Syracuse and if you are happy, like we were, just to enjoy the walks on the beach and relax in this beautiful place then this is a perfect place.
