Massimo’s apartment is a simple accommodation fine for spending a few days in Scopello
Positives: air conditioning, next door to a wonderful local bakery, close to bars and restaurants, quite close to the sea and the beautiful beaches around Scopello and Riserva dello Zingaro. Massimo was proactive with communication, kindly waited for us at check-in (we were late!) and gave us a quick overview of the flat and the village. He also left water and juice in the fridge for us.
The flat had a smell of damp / mould on the first day, luckily got better from the second day when we opened windrows and aired the place.
The stove-top coffee maker was not working unfortunately, overall the flat could have had a few more touches to make it slightly more comfortable (eg. there were no mosquito nets, no sails/shade on the balcony).
Worth noting: it’s opposite a restaurant with outdoor seating that you can hear until the restaurant closes. Also we had no reception inside the flat and there is no wi-fi, so we had to be out to message or call.
Overall, it’s a functional, compact place and great if you plan to be mostly out on the beach or hiking… and Massimo was very nice and clear.
