OVERALL - 5*. We stayed for 14 days at Paolo's house. The house is in a great location in Santa Tecla/Acireale. The house was perfect for four of us and the boys loved the pool and having access to the deck which led straight into the ocean. We spent many an afternoon floating around on a blow up float. Having A/C that worked was a god-send given it was so hot and humid. The beds were very comfortable, the wifi worked and having a bbq and being able to sit outside in the evening, eat and play games was wonderful. The only negative is that the kitchen is not very well stocked. There were only 2 bowls for cereal and not enough bowls to make salads etc. I would highly recommend Paolo's house and if we are ever back in Sicily we would stay there again.
