Livio was flexible about our arrival and there to greet us, carried our cases too! The apartment's setting is even better than the photographs and we were lucky to be there for full moon which rose from the water as red and huge! The apartment was super-clean, well-equipped and very comfortable. It has a great combination of modern with some family furniture, books and thoughtful touches like dictionaries for English, Spanish and French to Italian. We walked to the villlage one evening for dinner and enjoyed a music festa in the square. Livio was acessible and very helpful including printing our boarding passes! The location is ideal for Syracuse, Taormina and Etna. We wished we had more time to just sit on the terrace!
