Would give 10 stars if I could! After a week in Taormina, it was lovely to go to a smaller place and it felt really authentic and warm - beach is literally 15 seconds away around a corner, and loads of lovely restaurants within 15 minutes walking distance. Filippo also has a very helpful guidebook for anything you might need, and was on hand very quickly for anything else. We didn't have a car so were slightly stressed about arranging a taxi to pick us up to and from the train station given we had big bags, but Filippo arranged for his dad to pick us up both ways which was incredibly helpful. However, train station is a 25 minute walk away which is no problem without the bags, and with easy travel to other places on the north coast like Palermo and Cefalu.
Very peaceful and beautiful stay - huge recommendation for this place!
