Claudia and Francesco's apartment in Palermo fully lived up to the description. The view was stunning, the apartment was spacious and beautifully decorated, as well as very private. We never met our hosts in person, but they were so helpful and responsive, and their housekeeper Ina was as well. We discovered Bar Iglea Lea below the apartment building, and kept going back for cappuccino, pastries and gelato. We took the 603 bus out to Mondello beach and swam - amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed our four days there. Thank you so much Claudia and Francesco.
