Hello Adventurers of Sicilia! We stayed at Bartolo's place May 10-13 and it great. Bartolo was exceptionally friendly and helpful. He hooked us up with a spectacular boat tour on La Paloma to Stromboli, recommended restaurants, and was available If we needed him. He was the contact personally. To have a place right at the marina with a kitchen, little balcony with a sea view, and access to a large shared terrace with views of the sea was perfect for us. Especially at that price! We cooked it up, had limoncello on the terrace, and one minute from the Main Street for evening walks aka passeggiata. And, if you haven't been there, Lipari is fantastico!
