Vincenzo & his family are gracious & generous hosts. Communication, local tips, & the apartment are FIRST CLASS!! The apartment has a well equipped kitchen, plenty of hot water, comfortable beds & is immaculately clean. Valderice is a great location to use as a base to visit northwest Sicily. The town itself has all the food stores you need & is a nice walk. A huge bonus is the citrus orchard & vegetable garden that guests are permitted to harvest from. You will be made very welcome. I HIGHLY recommend.
