We spent 10 days in the cottage in June. The location is absolutely magnificant und the cottage has everything you need for a simple but comfortable life. We went down to Lipari town a couple of times during our stay to buy groceries, and practically spent all the rest of the time on the terrace - best place to be on the island. The little outside kitchen and the outside shower are really cool. What to bring: mosquito repellent. What not to bring: Work - the internet connection is slow and unstable. Mobile connection for phone calls OK.
