Tutto semplicemente perfetto! La casa di Moris e` molto bella e accogliente, grande e spaziosa, noi eravamo in 3 ma 4 persone ci stanno molto comodamente. La vista sull'Etna e' impagabile. Arredamento ed elettrodomestici nuovi e funzionali, fornita di tutto il necessario e oltre, pulizia ineccepibile. wi-fi ottimo. Moris e i suoi familiari sono sempre disponibili in caso di necessita` e, conoscendo ovviamente la zona, possono consigliare un po` su tutto. Avrete a disposizione 2 balconi per rilassarvi e godervi il fresco. Sparsi per la casa e il giardino ci sono oggetti curiosi ed esotici che Moris e la moglie hanno collezionato girando il mondo e che danno un tocco davvero super alla vacanza. La zona e' davvero molto bella e la posizione e' strategica per girare una vasta area della Sicilia.

L’host è stato gentilissimo, sempre molto disponibile e cordiale. Ci ha preparato due colazioni favolose per le mattine in cui eravamo presso l’alloggio. L’appartamento é in una zona molto bella, vicino alla funivia per Taormina e a due passi dalle spiagge. La vista sul mare è mozzafiato. Sicuramente un’esperienza da ripetere
