Alessandra’s place is an oasis of calm and beauty. Enjoy breakfast on the patio facing the sea. Turn around to witness Etna smoking away in the morning light. Walk among fruit trees down to a nearly private pebble beach. Pure magic. Alessandra is a gracious and attentive host, quick to respond to queries and to recommend local eats, services, and fun spots. The bungalow is well equipped with a modern bathroom and abundant hot water, a kitchen (with basic condiments and spices) where you can cook the fish and fresh pasta you have purchased nearby, a barbecue for outdoor grilling, and fresh sheets and towels. There is ample parking and garden space for relaxing in the hammock or chaises longue. I hate to make her place more booked, but please stay here if you are looking at this area. It has the rustic and rural charm that you will never forget. We will be coming back with our teenage children in tow.
