My partner and I stayed in Motta Camastra for 6 nights, Giuseppe met us in the village and gave us all the info we needed, as well as a lot of advice on local festivals and happenings in the area. We ended up going to the wine and food festival in Milo which we never would have found without his help. We also visited Taormina, Giardini/Naxos and Alacantara Gorge, but staying in Motta Camastra was the best part of our visit to Sicily. It is really pretty, peaceful and not a tourist in sight. The locals are friendly and we communicated with the little Italian we know. We loved the view of the mountains from the bedroom window and balcony. Great shower. It was also a thrilling experience to drive around in the area. A car is a must have - unless you just want to hang around in Motta. We tried the breakfast at the only local bar (sweet but good!) and made some meals ourselves, and then drove out of town to dine on some nights. Giuseppe is a great host and made everything as easy and convenient as possible. Warmly recommended.
