Our goal was to find a apartment that allowed us to live like Sicilians and not be in the middle of tourists attractions and that's what we got.
We are a family of 5 (3 boys of 9-11-12) and the apartment was spacious, super clean with a nice terrace in the back where we had all of our meals. The pictures posted on airbnb correspond to the reality of the place.
The apartment is close enough (walking) to all the cities different points of interests: The beach, the main street with all the shops and boutiques, Funicular that takes to Erice (awesome historical site), etc...
In the neighborhood your will find a nice coffee place, many bakeries, pizzerias, gelaterias and a few grocery places.
If you rent a car, your are 20-30km away from some of the nicest beaches in Sicily: Scopello, San Vito, etc...
We could not have received a better welcome from the owners, they where great, helpful and extremely generous.

In a nut shell: we loved our stay there.
