We had a very pleasant stay at Pierpaolo's place in Pachino. It is just like having a local friend's house for some days. It is fortunately not pimped with fancy motivational writings, touristy photos and little useless gimmicks, instead it lets you enjoy the home of a friendly and welcoming host in a relaxed way, and gives you the chance to experience an authentic Sicilian neighborhood.
Also, Pierpaolo's place was simple, clean, comfortable and well equipped with all necessities. He is very helpful and fast with replying.
The city of Pachino is a bit off the beaten track, yet very close to Marzamemi (overrated, imho) and the Riserva naturale orientata Oasi Faunistica di Vendicari (a must-see!).
We have not been around in this tomato-capitol too much, relaxing and enjoying the evening on the main square is very nice.
