Rosa made us feel very welcome. She brought an English and German speaking friend with her which helped with the introductions. She presented us with a big bowl each of strawberries, lemons and peppers from her own garden, which were delicious.

The property was immaculate, it looks like a designer home and is finished very well throughout. Parking was inside the boundaries of the garden. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds very comfortable. The property would easily be big enough for 3 people. Had the weather been better the covered terrace would have been perfect for eating al fresco.

On arriving we were asked to pay an additional 15 Euros for bed linen and towels, which was not mentioned in the airbnb listing. After having been made to feel so welcome we felt uncomfortable arguing this point, so we just agreed to pay. Use of the washing machine was also an additional charge of 3 Euros per wash.

The sea front is about 200m away, separated from the property by a wild meadow. The beach lets the property down somewhat. There is a lot of debris and no easy access into the water. The little seaside village at this time of the year (late April) was pretty much shut. The location is handy for visits to Marsala, Trapani, Erice and the Egadic Islands, but immediate surroundings have little to offer (at this time of year at least).
