We were a family of 5 with 3 kids of 5-6 years old. Giovanni welcomed us and explained us all we had to know with the house. He fixed very quickly a bulb that needed to be changed as well as the batteries of one air-con remote control. He has been a perfect host.
The house is 100% compliant with the pictures.
The garden is even above expectations, very well maintained and we enjoyed it very much. The pool has been a pleasure for the kids. And the view on Etna is great.
Indoor is a bit dark given the brown color of the walls but the house is exactly as shown on the pictures. Anyway, we did not spend very much time inside. The parents' house is very nice with a huge bathroom, very pleasant.
There is a basement that cannot be accessed, as well as a large room and a terrace in the 1st floor that could not be accessed neither.
The kitchen is well equipped and the house is equipped with TV cable which we did not use much anyway.
The house is located in a residential area, at a walking distance from all local shops you need. I walked every morning to pick-up fresh espressos and pasteries.
Note the house comes along with a free access to a private beach, with a rock beach. We went there and enjoyed very much. It is a 5-minute drive.
The view on Etna is also just great! Anyone would enjoy such a house.
