Evelina and the apartment were great. We really enjoyed our stay. It is not touristic at all and is very authentic. However if you don’t have a car there is at least a 20 minute walk to the centre and it is a very quiet town where people speak minimal English. We went to Palermo for the day which is 20 minute by train away from Santa Flavia which we really enjoyed. Overall, the apartment is a very authentic beautiful place and Evelina was very kind to us which we appreciated.
