We were surprised by the kindness and the hospitality of the host. She was really nice to accept us check in soon, and check out late as we had small children. The location, with beautiful garden, private parking, is perfect to visit around Messina (Taormins, Etna...). The host gave us a booklet that she prepared carefully to suggest us all that we can do there. The house is so beautifully designed, next to a supermarket. The beach is about 3 min by car or 15 min by walking, is very clean. I surely recommend this apartment.
