If you want to experience Sicily at its best and discover the authencity of this island, you should definitely choose this apartment. It is perfect - high ceilings, marble floors, wooden window shutters, huge balcony to hang out. From that balcony you can hear neighbors chat all day and sometimes all night long, you can watch people sell the freshest fish straight from car trunk (and rush downstairs to buy it!), and you can smell sea.
In town there are plenty food shops, fish restaurants and gelaterias, some are literally around the corner. The beach is 5-10 mins walk from the apartment. Palermo is an hour away by bus.
And probably the best part of this accomodation is the host, Salvatore. He was very helpful, punctual, friendly, and gave perfect reccomendations - it is worth listening to!
