Dario is a fabulous host. He met us at the apartment promptly and showed us through. He had written instructions for the Internet, suggestions for restaurants and a map of the city. He has a warm and vibrant personality. He responded to all our questions very quickly. The apartment was spotless and tastefully decorated. It is very large and could quite easily accommodate at least 6 adults. It had everything you could need for your visit. The location is right in the center of the shopping district and within a short walk to the beach which was very clean. We were there at the end of the season but I imagine the beach would be quite lively during the busy tourist season. We enjoyed the quiet. We had a car but chose to use the train for a trip to Palermo. The station is a short walk and the trip is only about 50 minutes; very convenient. We would highly recommend this apartment and this host.
