We stayed in the house for one week and enjoyed the space offered very much. We utilised the local beach twice and particularly enjoyed breakfasts at Sant Agato Di Militello.
Salvatore lived in this house for many years and it has been decorated in authentic ceramics of Sicily which made the feel of the house original and very charming.
We didn’t explore Acquedolci so much but Salvatore’s tips made the stay and exploration of the local area exceptional. His tip of pizza at Bedda Mastri was about the best pizza we’ve ever eaten.
Salvatore’s knowledge of the area meant we explored places such as Santo Stefano di Camastra, Tindari, Marinella Lakes, Oliveri and the beautiful town of San Marco d’Alunzio, as well as amazing gelato in Capo D’orlando.
The imparting of this knowledge made this a hugely enriching trip for us.
IF YOU ARE keen to have a swimming pool on holiday, you ought to check with the host if the pool has opened. Sadly, the pool had clearly been closed down at COVID times and there appears to be an ongoing legal issue. This may last for a long time still. Our children were disappointed but this issue is clearly out of the host’s hands. We made the most of the beautiful sea though.
This is a pretty good base but be prepared to drive for all basic amenities and eating out and touring etc as aside from the local beach, there isn’t much to get to be foot in the heat.
Thank you, Salvatore!
