“Ideal for families”

Reviewed 19 Aug 2016

The apartment was in Riposto in a quiet village setting close to the waterfront,( you will need to wear water shoes to go into the sea as its quiet rocky) with a well equipped shop nearby and restaurants. The apartment itself is ideal for families we are a family of six and the children all slept upstairs , where there were children's books , toys and games (also toilet) There is also good sized bedroom downstairs.The owners had thought about everything you could possibly need in the apartment. The kitchen was well equipped , large balcony with dining table and outdoor seating. A great base for a family holiday to explore Sicily.
