The hosts, Laura & Andrea were very accomodating, welcoming & helpful. We had a great stay, and better than expected with easy walking access to the sea (Miami beach lounge), local shops, cafés (Trisbar 1966 & Magri highly recommended), & woodfired take-away Pizzaria 100 yards away on Via Messina. It's a short 15 minute taxi ride to Catania City. If you like a traditional rustic fish restaurant try Nitto in Ognina (10mins Taxi) very popular with the locals (don't be put off by the plastic cups, plates & cutlery)
