We really enjoyed our stay at Maria's villa. The outdoor terrace area is incredible - beautiful landscaping and a stunning view. The house itself is also very comfortable. The drive up to the house has some steep, sharp curves, but Maria guided us up the first time. It was fine after that, plus it's how you get the great view. For activities, we recommend snorkeling at Cetaria Dive Center in Scopello (only a 10 minute drive away). We also loved the market and cafe at the bottom of the hill.
