Wir haben auch nach einem telefonischen Kontakt keine Adresse gehabt, die wir ins Navi eingeben konnten. Wir sind so unnötig eine Dreiviertel Stunde rumfahren und mussten uns durchfragen.Die Wohnung war sehr dreckig, Haare lagen auf dem Tisch und es gab Schimmel im Kühlschrank.Einen Staubsauber gab es nicht, Besen und Mob waren so dreckig, dass man sie nicht einsetzen konnte, alle Putzmittel mussten wir einkaufen.Vom Gasherd gingen nur 2 von 4 Flammen, der Abfluss in der Küche war verstopft, im Bad blätterte die Farbe von der Decke und das Waschbecken war undicht, so dass das Holz des Waschtisches aufgeweicht war. ##### Jürgen M.

Il residence è moderno, molto carino. Il posto è strategico per la visita alla Sicilia orientale. Peccato che la pulizia nei dintorni e nella spiaggia di fronte non sia ottimale, ma non è certo colpa dei proprietari dell'appartamento, che sono persone molto disponibili e presenti ad ogni necessità. Ci siamo trovati benissimo, come a casa, ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Grazie di tutto, torneremo volentieri! ##### Ketty P.

Il n'était pas précisé que le logement se trouve devant une rue très fréquentée par les véhicule dès avant l'aube et jusqu’à tard le soir. L’hôte a été à l'écoute de notre demande de couvertures qu'elle nous a fourni le soir même. Par contre les réponses aux questions via whatsapp tardaient à venir (plus d'une heure à minima). Il était convenu avec l'hôte que je paierai une nuit de plus à mon arrivée car j'avais mal enregistré mon séjour. Je me suis retrouvé à payer plus cher cette dernière nuit. ##### Gaëlle L.

The address in the site and in the reality were not the same. No wine glass available and the bathroom needs to be cleaned better, particularly in the corners. The price and quality ratio was good and the people very nice. The location was close to mountain Etna and great. ##### Kamal M.

We truly enjoyed this holiday apartment. The apartment is located next to a street, but this never bothered us. Crossing the street you conveniently enter the beach. Looking the other direction gives a great view on the Etna. For using the pool, swim caps need to be bought which were not easy to find. Body rafting on the Alcantara river is highly recommended. . ##### A. d.
