Giovanni & Stella have thought of everything to make this beautiful and rustic-looking apartment feel like home while you stay in Sicily.
We had views of Etna on one side and the Faraglioni (Cyclops rocks) of Aci Trezza on the other.
Giovanni very kindly picked us up from the airport as we were without a hire car for the first few days of our holiday.
When we arrived at the apartment, they'd very kindly provided us with bread, ham & cheese as well as cake, juice and wine.
A supermarket and small grocery store were in very easy reach of the apartment.
We enjoyed wonderful snorkelling down on the beach at Aci Trezza...an abundance of colourful fish, crabs, sea slugs (!). Restaurants there were also reasonably priced with a good choice for both adults and children.
Our only regret is not being able to stay longer!
Thanjs Giovanni and Stella!

Amazing place PARADISE
Terrific place, 3 terraces, huge kitchen, bright bedrooms and incredible views of the ocean and the faraglioni.
The location is great, easy to reach the main attractions, and the Murabito family were the most gracious host,
The best two week we had in a very long time, we will come back.
