Perfect Honey Moon !

Antonio is an amazing host. He was so welcoming and the house is perfect for a beach vacation . It is stocked with all the tools you may need on during your stay. The beach is stunning and a short walk away. There are other beaches and historical sites very close. We had a magical time at Antonio's home and can't wait to come back. Antonio è un host fantastico. È stato così accogliente e la casa è perfetta per una vacanza al mare. È fornita di tutti gli utensili di cui potresti aver bisogno durante il tuo soggiorno. La spiaggia è stupenda e a pochi passi. Ci sono altre spiagge e siti storici molto vicini. Abbiamo trascorso un momento magico a casa di Antonio e non vediamo l'ora di tornare.

Comfortable home

Beautiful spot near the ocean. It was very easy to rent the linens and towels. The manager of the property was extremely kind and helpful. Only thing missing with this home that we needed was WiFi.

Excellent Location in a Spectacular Beach Town

The apartment is just a few blocks from the center of town and the most fantastic aqua blue coastline. Marcello is a thoughtful and attentive host to make sure I was content. I thoroughly enjoyed strolling around the neighborhood checking out the street vendors and shops/restaurants, and then hiking and swimming from the the rocky cliffs in this amazing little town.
