Maia's place was absolutely amazing, and we had a great time! The terrace looked exactly like the picture, and it was a stone throw away from the water. The rooms were clean and nicely decorated.
There are some restaurants a few minutes away from the house, and it is easy to access Palermo by a short train ride. However, it might be easier to get around if you rent a car.
Maia was very friendly and kind. She came to the train station to pick us up at arrival, and drove us to the station after checking out.
We will absolutely recommend you to stay at her place. You will have a fabulous authentic Sicilian experience!
