Igor kindly welcomed us at the flat with fruit, wine and fresh water, thank you! Igor’s place offers a great location to explore the Eastern coast of Sicily. The place is located in a quiet fishing town with all the amenities at a walking distance. The views from the flat balcony are amazing, Etna as a backdrop and Taormina by the sea. The flat itself is spacious and has the basics for a short stay. However some points to consider are:
- Cleanliness was ok, lots of dust and the bath tub wasn’t particularly clean.
-The bed linen falls short of standard
- washing machine did not work for us despite being assured that there wasn’t a problem with it
- one of the bedrooms has a glass door which is extremely dangerous as we found out when we opened the window and the wind blew the door shuttering the glass all over the flat. We were very immensily lucky not to have got hurt. Something to consider especially if you have children.
- WiFi is not free, you are given it with some credit ( ours lasted 3 full days) and then you have to load it as you go
- you have to sign a rental agreement when you get there, this is in Italian and there isn’t an English translation of it
All in all, the flat offers a reasonable accommodation in an excellent location!
