Claudia was a fantastic host. The house was absolutely gorgeous and in a good location in Mescalucia. There is the sweetest dog that lives on the grounds. We really enjoyed our time there. Claudia was so nice and actually gave us a ride into Catania because the buses were not running that day and we had a flight to catch. I do recommend renting a car to stay there because it is out of the way from other parts of Sicily. It was a lovely place away from all of the city noise.
