First of all: Sicily is a great place! Absolutely worth visiting! Unfortunately, we have stayed in Sferracavallo for only 10 days. It is a great place for anyone who wants to avoid touristic places with crowds of annoying tourists. Sferracavallo is a little fishing village with authentic atmosphere, very warm people and a gorgeous rocky beach. Although we have been travelling around to visit other places in Sicily (like Taormina or the Aeolian Islands) – Sferracavallo has always been the place we wanted to return to. Cristina’s apartment is very cozy and traditionally arranged. You definitely benefit from the terrace belonging to the apartment where you can enjoy your breakfast, dinner or just a glass of delicious Sicilian wine. Animal lovers – like us – will love Cristina’s apartment since she has got five lovely cats that fill this place with more warmth and joy. Cristina is very dedicated to animal welfare in Sferracavallo and we appreciated that very much. During our stay there was a stray puppy that Cristina brought to her house to find an adoptive family for her. We were very emotional about that and very happy to have this little sunshine around. She was a bit cheeky (like a stray puppy should be), but soooo sweet. Hope she will come to a loving family because she deserves it so much. Cristina is a very helpful and attentive host. For example we only marginally mentioned that we three are vegan. Honestly, a lot of people do not even know what vegan is. Cristina was so kind to give us a visiting card of a small shop situated close to the apartment that distributes vegan products. That was very kind. And in many other situations she was always there for us. We wish Cristina all the best and hope to come back to this wonderful place – Sferracavallo – one day.
