Giuseppe's house is spatious, clean, comfortable, central and extremely well equipped. We particularly appreciated the excellent WiFi connection and the washing machine/drying facilities. We are not beach-lovers but even beach umbrellas were provided for those who wanted to spend the day on the beach.
We know the area from previous trips and had ideas of places we wanted to visit but Giuesppe is extremely interested in history and nature and gave us some very good tips - some of which we will follow up on next time. He is readily available as his office is above the apartment and he lives close by. Even though we arrived a little earlier than planned on a Sunday evening he was there within a couple of minutes to give us the keys and show us the house.
The alleyway from the street and the gate in to the parking area (shared with Giuseppe's father) are quite narrow. Was OK with a Ford Fiesta and the mirrors folded in. Don't attempt it with anything much bigger!
Don't expect to lose weight if you stay in Giuseppe's house! We were greeted with a large selection of cannoli and a bottle of excellent Nero d'Avola wine. Later in the week we were given lemons and pomegrantes from the family's gardens. We were also told to pick tomatoes and peppers out of the garden right by the house whenever we wanted.
The only slight problem I had is that the bedroom(s) are right on the street. As of about 6 a.m. there is traffic noise - so bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Otherwise the house, Giuseppe as host and Avola & surrounding area are highly recommended. We will be back!
