If you like spectacular views, watching the fading dusk make a sharp sillohuette of dramatic Mt. Etna, feeling like you're in some place unique, the beauty of which makes you gasp, then this is your place. The view is even more dramatic at night when the shoreline is twinkling in its illumination. Beyond all that, the apartment is spacious, the A/C works well, the place is furnished in a classic and tasteful manner and is just plain comfortable. I could have sat on the terrace endlessly. Massimo is a fantastic host. Communication was quick and excellent. He even speaks a few words of Dutch!! Upon arrival, he had oodles of info on local attractions and eateries, and gave us a complete rundown. He explained the local transportation system and left us their schedules. Later, upon our request, he arranged a beach reservation for us. They collected us from, and returned us to, Massimo's place, and had two beach chairs and umbrella all set up for us for €10. They also have a great dining facility for lunch. Right down the street, there's an excellent restaurant with their.own terrace and view. We usually like variety, but the food and stunning ambiance were so fabulous, and the personnel so friendly, that we dined there all three evenings of our stay. I highly recommend staying at Massimo's.
