  : The views were great. The hosts very friendly and welcomed us with pastries. The parking secure. Good air con. Plenty of space and easy walk to sea and restaurants. Get up early to see great sunrise, lovely garden.
  : The shower was not power shower. The hot water very hot, if you knocked the dial you got burnt. Some comfy indoor chairs for when its raining.

  : Very helpful owner. Francesco provided us with all required information already before the arrival. He actually warned us about tough public transportation and suggested renting a car, but as we were a bit terrified reading everywhere how Sicilians are driving we decided to leave this idea and use buses or trains. There are only few buses daily to the city centre and by foot this is few kilometres (actually climbing as Acireale is located on the hill). We tried once to go down from the city centre and do not recommend as it is very dangerous due to very narrow streets and no pedestrian walkway. We mostly used taxi to the train station (15 during the day and 20 in the evening). By rail the connection to Taormina or Siracusa is very convenient and low budget (6-9). Same about travelling to/from Catania, even from the airport (3-4). When it comes to the house - seems to be typical Sicilian location. Kitchen well equipped, A/C in both bedrooms, cool terrace! We had two sunbeds, garden umbrella and garden table with chairs. And the lemon gardenWe could eat as much as we can. They were really, really tasty. Never tasted such good ones ever before. All in all, we had a great experience over there, but are a bit disappointed on the location.

  : Nice location-beatiful sea-view.
  : The kitchen utensils were not clean. Our apartment would deserve a new shower.

  : Lovely sea view. Well equipped and the equipment and shower worked well.The host was very helpful.It was a quiet area in early November.
  : The building felt a bit shabby and probably had not been redecorated inside or outside since the photos in the listing date stamped 2015.All the chairs were hard and upright except for a single bed in the living area that wasn't a sofa bed and because of a rail along the edge was difficult to get comfortable on when sitting.The redundant washing machine near the entrance doesn't give a good first impression.

  : Very nice panorama from the terrace. It was the best to enjoy the meals from there :) The apartment was just like expected.
  : Would be nice to have a proper wine opener and some basic stuff like washing up liquid and salt. The rest of the equipment was ok.
