Communication with Andrea is very easy and we enjoyed the warm welcome by his whole family who lives on the premises. Still you have much privacy at the house and the great terrace with a view over the sea. Their dog Brando will visit you regularly, he is extremely nice. Be aware that it can be cold in the house in spring as the walls are thick. You will need a car to enjoy the environments and rumbling Mt. Etna. The kitchen is fully equipped, wifi is good. We enjoyed our stay very much and recommend Andrea's house for a beautiful relaxing holiday!
