Nearby we recommend you to visit the Castle of Aci (5 km) and the renowned Riviera dei Ciclopi (6.5 km). This small archipelago takes its name from a legend, according to which the stacks and other rocks located in front of Aci Trezza are the stones thrown by the cyclops Polyphemus against Ulysses on the run, as narrated in Homer's Odyssey.

Tremendous view but this unit needs work
This unit is located right on the cliffs and has stunning views. It is spacious and in a great location. That being said, many items were broken or missing. The freezer had frozen solid and water ran out onto the living room floor, the stove didn't work and the handheld propane lighter was empty, the coffee pot didn't work, there is 1 pot holder so we had a hard time moving a pot of pasta to the sink to drain the water, there were no dish towels so we were not sure what the owner expected us to do with wet dishes (there is a drain rack above the sink for the dishes but no way to dry cups and silverware, the electrical outlet in the master bathroom was broken. This is truly a fantastic unit and it would be a great experience with a little bit of attention.

De woning en locatie zijn wel goed maar wel gehorig (bovenburen) en het was zeer hinderlijk dat het terras regelmatig werd bezocht door derden die gebruik maakten van toegang tot de zee. Wanneer je een huis verhuurt voor 6 personen zorg dan ook voor voldoende koffie/thee kopjes en glazen. Wel zeer ruim en schoon en een goede locatiemanager die zeer behulpzaam was.
