We loved our stay on Lipari! Bernard and his family looked after us after we missed our ferry to the island from Naples (only twice a week off-season) and allowed us to extend our stay with no fuss. It was not yet peak season so it was quite calm (in a good way). A supermarket was just two streets over and has everything you would need. The Wi-fi worked great and never dropped out. A bus can take you into town for a little over €1 and comes quite regularly. Great hikes and trips to take on the island. We stayed for two weeks and would definitely come back!
