Absolutley lovely holiday! Beautiful setting with lemon and orange trees, palm trees everywhere, horses, dogs, cats, puppies, hens and geese. Breakfasts were delicious- freshly squeezed orange juice, coffee, croissants, fresh eggs, and a selection of homemade dishes varying each day. Paola and her mother were great hostesses and were always available with help and advice. Paola even organised a wine tasting for us at a local vineyard, as well as a trip to an art gallery opening of a friend of hers, in the nearby town of Taormina. Couldn't fault the hospitality at all- the pool was beautiful and the location idyllic. It was a fair walk from the beach, but definitely doable. Meanwhile, buses to the main town were frequent and we rented a scooter one day which was well worth it. Definitely recommend it!
