The house has amazing views in a very quiet an peaceful setting. It was about a 10 minute drive from Lipari port so a vehicle of some sort is recommended to get around. There a long dirt road to the house which our quad was able to manage, but a car would need to be parked at the bottom of the road. It was clean and comfortable and provided some rest to the end of our busy days and end of our stay in Sicily. The Aeolian Islands are amazing and it was well worth the trip.
