We have stayed at Serena's place for 4 nights as part of our trip around Sicily. We very much enjoyed our time here. The apartment is situated on the top floor of their family house, but is separated from the house and has its own entrance. The location of the house is quite remote, so a car is definitely recommended, but this makes the surroundings very quiet and peaceful. The swimming pool and garden with many fruittrees are great, and we were allowed to pick whatever was needed for cooking. The kitchen inside is well-equipped with enough to make a nice Italian dinner. Because our flight was heavily delayed we arrived late at night. Pietro, Serena's father, stayed to welcome us and arranged pizza as we still needed to have dinner after our long travel. During the rest of our stay, nobody was home so we could enjoy our time in peace and quiet. It's important to mention that there are very curious cats (incl 4 kittens) in and around the house; we really enjoyed playing and interacting with them. Since we also attracted their attention, they stayed with us most of the time, but we're not sure if they'd stay away if you don't give them attention. Nevertheless we would not really recommend this place if you don't want any cats around you, at least at some point during your stay. Other than that, we would highly recommend Serena's place!
