We spent a week in lipari in Valentina's apartment in mid-october. The apartment is about 10 minutes walk (including a stair at the end) from the port / bus station / supermarket - so everything is easy to reach in walking distance. It is proper, well equipped and on a quiet location. The big eolian balcony with the magnificent view create immediately a holiday mood. There is sun on the balcony until noon and even when there is a rainy day, it is nice to stay in the apartment/ balcony by reading a book or watching tv. The communication with Valentina was super fast and friendly, we were warmly welcomed by Maria-Rosa who showed us the apartment and everything was perfect. We would love to come back again and can recommend it 100%.
