"This is a really well designed apartment. Itâs on the top floor (with a reliable lift) so it is quiet and you get a delicious breeze. âIndoorsâ you have a double bedroom, spacious bathroom, kitchen and large L-shaped living/dining area (with surprisingly comfortable sofa beds). This leads almost seamlessly through French windows into a large âoutdoorsâ area, most of which has a sturdy roof with an attractive wood finish â quite impervious to a couple of heavy evening downpours we experienced while having a drink outside. We more or less lived âoutdoorsâ, since it has a second kitchen, a large wooden table and chairs and a profusion of greenery and flowers, which offer privacy. We often ate at home in the evenings, though we had not intended to. There are two supermarkets and a fish shop within 5-10 minutes walk away.
We were a party of 3 and found the apartment very comfortable, well appointed and well stocked with the necessaries of life - and some bonuses like an electric juicer for fresh orange in the morning, a hi-fi system and range of CDs for the music lovers and an interesting selection of books, many in English, including some good guides and John Julius Norwichâs history of Sicily under the Normans. Unfortunately, there was so much else to do that my husband only made it to chapter 2 â weâll have to buy our own copy to finish it.
We have stayed in a number of self-catering premises, several of which have been as comfortable and well appointed as this one. However all three of us felt this one was a bit special. Perhaps it was because the furniture, the decorations, the ornaments all reflected the personality of their owner, which made you feel more like a guest in his house than a paying visitor. Certainly on no previous self-catering holiday has the owner taken such trouble to ensure that all our wants have been met. Great accommodation in a beautiful and historic island â a truly memorable holiday!"
