We stayed in Tecla’s apartment for six days and had a wonderful time! It was a cute, cozy apartment with airconditioning and a fan in the bedroom. Check in was very smooth and we had continuous contact with our host for any questions we had. The shower had a really good pressure and the bathroom was very clean. There is a small kitchen available with a coffee machine and excellent coffee capsules! The view from the balcony is stunning as you are right at the sea. There are a few local restaurants around with delicious meals! To get to Acireale and the train station you can either hire a car and drive up to the motorway or hike up the Chiazzette trail (30 min walk to town center and another 30 min to the train station). From the train station it is very easy to get to Catania, Syracuse, Taormina and Catania airport. The trail up to town is a bit difficult, especially in the heat, but the view over the sea is phenomenal. Make sure to have a flashlight on you when you walk up/down at night as it is very dark! We enjoyed our stay with Tecla very much and highly recommend it for anyone who wants to explore the east coast of Sicily!
