Apartment was nice, spacious and clean, gorgeous views from the terrace. Aquacalda is quite remote and distant from the Lipari centre, so transportation to and back could be an issue. I felt the check in process could have been smoother. As we were traveling, we could not have accurately predicted our arrival time, and were late by 4 hours as a result. We didn’t want to bother the host by insisting that she receive us, so it could have been a lot simpler if the host could drop the keys off, instead she insisted on meeting us in person. This was not sensibly arranged, and we had to wait a further 1.5 hours to check in. The host also did not give us accurate directions to get to the place, so we had to wait in the wrong apartment downhill for 45 minutes. Disappointing start to what was otherwise a great stay.
