Unfortunately, I would not recommend staying at Federica place. We stayed there for 3 weeks and maybe we loved it at the beginning but later it was too much to bear.
Everything looks like on the picture but it is not as spectacular as one could think ( of course everything here is my subjective opinion and due to ours high expectation as one usually have to go on holiday we were disappointed after all). The village itself is exploited by locals and tourists, tons of trash, broken glass and garbage on the beach ( sea itself had a lot of sharp rocks so it's not the best for swimming at least without special shoes ) There are two restaurants which don't really encourage you to eat there, so you can only supply yourself from the local supermarket where you don't have a lot of choices ( if you love seafood you can forget about it, nothing in the supermarket, only there's a fish market in Porticello very early in the morning and fish shop in Santa Flavia where for 2 calamari we paid around 16 EU due to current economy).
In the nights there have been groups of people sitting outside just under our balcony talking loudly sometimes until 1-2 AM. Including that noise, the noise of the children running around and screaming and boiler constantly working ( even though we switched it off every time during nights) sleeping was impossible without earplugs. Since we have been there we did not saw any bus or bus station so if you don't have a car it is not the best place to stay because the train station is far away. You need to walk around 20-30 min sometimes in the heat and dirt to get there, avoiding cars, etc.
Last but not least one needs to remember that it is a provincial place, with locals sort of "observe" your every move, so if you want to feel anonymous and on the second plan, it is not the greatest place.
After all, I would recommend checking on google opinions about Sant Elia, because I wished I would do that before reserving.
Big thank you to Frederica and her Father and Pierro and his Wife for taking us from the train station and back! Grazie Mille.
