Our stay at Adagio was wonderful. The hosts are some of the kindest people we've ever met and they make you feel welcome as soon as you arrive. Their suggestions for scenic trips or visits that are worthwhile are fantastic. They know the island like the back of their hand! The view from the deck is amazing and the accommodation is great! We only regret that we didn't stay 2 nights longer... seriously! Do at least 5 nights on this incredible island and at this wonderful place! Thank you Pierre and Branca (I hope i got the spelling right, otherwise I'm sorry). Just WOW!
