This was a dream house that resulted in a dream vacation. This home had everything we needed and more. Pino and Viviana went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and comfortable. We loved everything from the ornate decorations (that piano!), the welcome basket (enough to feed us for several days and we finished the wine!), grill/patio with the view of the ocean (we grilled every other night!), pizza oven (with the very talented pizza man that made us the best pizza we have ever had), picking clementine/lemons off the trees (our toddler loved this activity as she selected "mommy/daddy/baby lemons"), picking fresh herbs from the garden, and the location (close to everything you need whether nearby well stocked grocery store or towns with charming restaurants but also with a view of Mount Etna and the ocean!). Honestly, I don' t think we could envision a more beautiful and welcoming home. On top of that, I was surprised by how well heated the home was given its size. Our little girl slept so well and she also loved being introduced to the VCR tapes of Winne the Pooh! On Day 2, our group was already talking about how sad we would be when we left and we remained sad because clearly 8 nights was not enough. We don't normally visit the same place twice but this place we absolutely will (after the baby is born). Pino, Viviana, thank you for your hospitality; it was unrivaled and like I said to you before, we will be back!
