Where to start?! Teresa's house in Salina is simply magical! We really couldn't have asked for more! Its location is perfect - isolated enough so that we had total privacy, and within a 10-minute walk from the closest town (Lingua), which had everything we needed to really appreciate island life. Plus, the house being high up (the last stretch of road is rather steep, but very short), means that the view on the bay is second to none. It's hard to capture how incredible the view from the house is in pictures! Especially if you get up to watch the sun rise over Panarea (which means an early start!).
As well as the two incredible terraces and their views, the house has absolutely everything you could ever need! Whether it's to cook, to enjoy the view in a hammock, to take with you to the beach - literally everything is provided (there's even an ice cream maker, which we didn't get the chance to use!). We felt right at home straight away! We ended up cooking at home most nights, and made the most of the outdoor facilities to prepare and enjoy our meals under the stars.
Another important point - Teresa was a fantastic host! We unfortunately weren't able to meet her this time, but she prepared everything for us (including booking a taxi to pick us up when we arrived in from the ferry), and really helped us out throughout our entire stay. She was always there to suggest places to eat, drink, beaches, the best spots to watch the sunset (you should definitely go to Pollara), how to get around the island by bus and scooter, and more! Communication was easy and fluid, meaning we didn't have to worry about anything.
This house is a perfect spot to fully appreciate life on Salina. As we're a couple, it was a really romantic location. However it could also be a great place for families and groups of friends. We would recommend this house 200%, and can't wait to come back to Salina!
