Firstly I would like to thank Carmen for her warm welcome to the Mermaid House despite us arriving very late at night. Carmen took the time to fully explain the house and gave some wonderful advice on places to visit and eat in the surrounding area.

As to the house and location, it was simply wonderful! The house was very comfortable with plenty of room for 4-6 people and excellent decoration and comfort, excellent WiFi and the air conditioning worked brilliantly which considering it was +40 deg every day was very important, it was a quite area and very private. Parking right outside the door of the house was never a problem, even on the busy days. The public beach was only 50 meters from the door of the house and it was very clean and had wonderful views of the coast all the way from Taormina and across the water to Calabria. A short walk to the main town center of Letojanni of less than 500m and there is everything you need, supermarket, bakers, butchers etc and of course some very good beach front restuarants including my families favorite Nino's (you must try the seafood gnocchi!). We took a few short drives to the wonderful towns and sights in the immediate area but mostly we enjoyed relaxing around the house, the beach and the town.

All in all we had a wonderful week at the Mermaids House and Carmen was a wonderful host.

Molte Grazie Carmen!!!!
