We stayed for 7 days at Filippo's place. Considering the location and the garden it is absolutely value for money. Communication with him was easy from the moment I approached him. Throughout our stay he was always helpful and gave us nice suggestions for things to do in the surrounding areas. When we encountered an issue with some flooding on our first night due to the boiler breaking down he was quickly available and fixed it (on a Sunday).
The best thing about the house is its location and garden. Close to the highway and Cefalu. Garden is absolutely brilliant with the olive trees and outdoor bbq. Enough seating too. We ate outside every night cooking our meat and veggies on the bbq and enjoyed it. There is also a beautiful beach nearby at a 10 minute walk.
The mattress on the double bed has seen better days.
I feel the cleaning fee of 50 euros is steep considering how clean the place was. Linen and towels were clean and the floor tiles had been swept and mopped. We had to wash the cutlery and dishes before using them because there were food remainders on them. Fortunately there was a dishwasher (which is not listed and was a nice surprise!)
All basic amenities such as soap and shampoo were provided so if you are coming for a short trip with only Hand luggage that's definitely a pro at this rate. And there were even mosquito coils which are useful in summer ;-)
Summing it up: beautiful and excellent location, great garden and nice bbq. I would definitely recommend it if you like spending most of your time outdoors.
