Firstly, wonderful Corrado and lovely Sandrine: they really like their flat and hosting guests. Corrado was there waiting for us and we had been delayed getting from the airport, but he wasn't at all put out. He gave us a really helpful introduction to the flat and there was complementary water, coffee and other essentials at no extra cost. They were both so friendly and available the whole time we were there, booking amazing places for us to eat and even helping to sort out a parking fine! They also helped us to organise a trip to Mount Etna and booked an amazing place for us to stay the night before. Real platinum service.
The flat: it's right next to the sea! It's on the top of a building with two outside balconies, one for sunrise and one for sunset, perfect. It's beautifully appointed with everything you could want to make your stay comfortable and there is a really well-stocked kitchen. Sandrine and Corrado's care for the flat is plain to see; it's really clean and tidy and they changed the linen regularly. There are really cool folding bikes to use, that were good fun to get about locally.
We couldn't have landed on our feet better. It was more than perfect.
