Wonderful home-away-from-home

We absolutely loved being part of the local community and situated right across from the marina. We were <5min walkable from many restaurants and 10-15 min from a supermarket and a beach/solarium. We got to experience authentic neighborhood sicilian food and hospitality. Everything and everyone were wonderful!

Kein ruhiger Ort- sehr laut und ungemütlich

In der Beschreibung heißt es "man könne den Sonnenuntergang auf der Panoramaterrasse genießen", veröffentlicht sind ausschließlich Bilder mit Blick auf den Jachthafen. Nicht erwähnt ist, dass auf der anderen Seite der Dachterrasse in nur 25 Meter Entfernung direkt eine vier-spurige, viel befahrene Straße entlang läuft. Die damit verbundene Lautstärke macht das Sitzen auf der Dachterrasse unmöglich. Zudem gibt es eine weitere von Autos und Motorrädern viel frequentierte Straße direkt vor dem Haus, die in ca. 200 Meter Entfernung zu einer Partylocation führt. Von dem Lärm der Gäste und der Musik wird man jede Nacht bis 3 Uhr belästigt und eines der Schlafzimmer ist dadurch gar nicht nutzbar. Wegen Lärmbelästigung und Schlafmangel haben wir daher die Unterkunft nach nur 3 Tagen verlassen müssen.

Sauberes, nettes Appartement etwas außerhalb Catanias, direkt an einem kleinen Jachthafen, aber leider auch direkt an der Hauptstraße, gelegen.
