Vacation home in Capo Vaticano_Stromboli

Romantic masonry cottage almost overlooking the sea, surrounded by the typical vegetation of Calabria, among oleanders and prickly pears. Its quiet location and the large terrace from which you can enjoy an unforgettable view will surely captivate you! Ideal both for those who want to stop and rest and for those who want to explore the region. The space It is a cozy masonry house with exposed stone, about 35 square meters, simple but equipped with everything you need, wi-fi, air conditioning and free parking included. It consists of a living room with a sofa bed and a fully equipped kitchen, a double bedroom and a small bathroom. The large terrace and the private garden are its beating heart. From here you can enjoy an incredible view! On the horizon, 2 active, often smoked volcanoes rise for truly unforgettable sunsets! Despite being extremely close to the sea, you need a car or a scooter to get there. As the crow flies, the sea is 200 metres away, but it is about 3 km to the nearest beach. It is suitable for comfortably accommodating two people, but if you have a child, the sofa in the entrance can be transformed into a single bed. The place is very secluded, so we imagine it's a perfect solution for adults, but if you have kids or teenagers who you think might enjoy it, they are welcome. Wi-Fi is available free of charge and the signal is strong, suitable for those who work remotely. The house was designed for summer stays. We also make it available in the other months, but you have to consider that there is only one air conditioner in the bedroom, which can act as a heater and dehumidifier. It's powerful, but the doors should be left open to heat the living room. The bathroom is not heated (there is only a small electric heater). For people who are particularly sensitive to humidity, it may not be suitable in the colder/wetter seasons. Guest access Access to the property is given by a large electric gate. Cars can be parked immediately on the left as you enter. To reach the house it is necessary to walk down a path, about 100 meters, rather uneven as it is paved in rough pieces of local stone. We like it very much because it is well integrated into the nature of the place but you will have to be careful when walking on it, it is quite uneven and becomes slippery when it rains Other things to note The tourist tax of 1 euro per day per person is payable on site. We provide sheets and towels when we arrive. If you want intermediate changes, they must be agreed in advance and will have a cost of 25 euros per double bed and towels and 15 euros per single bed and towels Check-in time is from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., but we try to accommodate guests whenever possible and if they give us plenty of advance notice. Checking out outside the agreed-upon hours may incur additional costs of €20 or more, especially in the evening. On our property, the houses we rent are two, practically twins. They are adjacent but each with its own separate entrance, covered patio, courtyard, and privacy. This is called Stromboli, as its patio faces this always smoking volcano. The other is called Etna as its patio faces a little more towards the Strait of Messina and Etna. Water in Calabria is a precious asset and in the warmer months it can be scarce and the municipal water service can be suspended during the day. We have 2 large cisterns to try to always have supplies, but if the water is wasted and if the suspension lasts for a long time, they may not be enough. Registration details IT102018C2IVXO562F
