The apartment was a beautifully and tastefully done place ... Giancarlo and his wife were extremely gracious and helpful ... It was a very well equipped kitchen with all the condiments provided . To make it even better we recd. a nice bottle of wine and some fine chocolates on arrival :) ... The only drawback was that it was a little away from the beach and I would be ideal with your own transportation... It is also right next to a supermarket which makes things really easy if u plan to cook yourself ... All in all a lovely experience :)
