If you are coming from outside of Europe and are not familiar with the medieval style towns and villages, you will be in for a bit of a shock. The villa is located among several 'streets' that are only walkable. You must keep your car (if you have rented one) on the main street while walking to the villa for check in. But, when you do meet the owner, they will have a parking pass for you to keep the car in a well protected parking garage. The location of the villa is perfectly located near the church where there are restaurants, a mini market and several little gift and artist shops. The city is very clean, which is a contrast to the rest of the Sicilian cities we visited. Prepare to walk a lot and really enjoy the people, the view of Etna and the sea.
