As zaia describes, her house is on top of a hill along with other homes. The views are beautiful and we spent two nights on the patio. Being close to 60years and not as fit as some we would walk down to Lipardi in the morning and return by taxi,15euro, in the evening. zaia suggested bartaldo as a tourist operator and he was great, getting us onto two small boat trips around lipardi and Vulcano with Giovanni as captain. zaia was always there to help when needed and was only a phone text or call away. Thankyou zaia for our pleasurable stay. 😀
