Laura’s home was in a beautiful location right on the water with a semi private beach. It was very quiet, and no other people were renting at the time, so we had pretty much a private residence. However you have to have a car to go anywhere. There’s nothing within walking distance. We were able to drive to the beaches, and once there, we could walk and see some beautiful coastal views as well as Casa Blanca & Punta Sant’Elia, and hiked up the breathtaking road to the open air museum on Capo Zafferano. The hosts were friendly, but the place that they recommended for dinner we thought was expensive and not very good for the money. I’m sorry that I can’t remember the name, but the pizza looked better than the pasta and entrees we had. We did discover a very good seafood restaurant on our second night there in the quaint seaside town of Porticello called Al Faro Verde di Benito. It is right on the water, and the seafood was very fresh. The chef/owner came out and talked with us personally for a while. We recommend Laura‘s home for the beautiful view and beach, and close access to much beautiful coastline, and definitely recommend the restaurant on the water.
