Alicudi seems to have been forgotten by the world and that’s exactly what we were looking for. The place rent by Matteo has a mindblowing view, we spent days living to the rythm of the sun, the wind and napping in the shadows of the roof.
The house is very typical and charming, but travellers should be aware that it comes with some small inconveniences (the stairs from the porto are demanding, and the water in both kitchen and bathroom smells but I believe it’s the case on the whole island and that’s part of the experience) but it really didn’t bother us more than that.
Miriam, who welcomed us, was helpful and easily reachable if we had any questions.
The beach, near the porto, has a clear water, with fishes that came swimming at our feet.
Last but not least, we were amazed by the nature: the plants, the flowers and their smell.
Highly recommended!
