Roberto's place is wonderful! He had numerous great suggestions from restaurants to shopping that all became highlights of our holiday. His mother is also lovely, close by, and always more than happy to help. They were excellent hosts and are very kind people. The house is fully equipt, tastefully decorated and very clean, but the real gem of this property is the outside! The pool and outdoor spaces are AMAZING!!! The pool is massive and we enjoyed many hours of swimming. Across the street, there's a wonderful restaurant and bar which was very convenient and great for snacks and breakfast. The beach, as advertised, is also just across the street and wasn't very busy. The location is not touristy at all, but a little far from the airport and larger cities. We had a rental car and thought the location was fine as we could do day trips to Cefalù and Taormina. However, I'd highly recommend having a rental car for this property. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this place; we hope to come back soon!!
