Bernard was a fantastic host. He went out of his way to meet and greet us at the Lipari pier at night, booked us all a taxi back to the beachside apartment and was very helpful for any tourist/visitor information. It was really good that he kept up good communication throughout the process. The apartment was spacious, clean and well located. Very good value. Cornetto beach area has all the amenities of the main Lipari town, except ferry/boating excursions, so if you plan on getting out and about a fair bit, I would recommend hiring a scooter from next to the apartment. The outdoor patio area was awesome for evening dining alongside the kitchen. Highly recommended.
