About this property
The gecko's lair
Our cottage has two bedrooms—one with two single beds and the other with a double bed—a brand-new bathroom, and a beautiful patio overlooking the sea. The view stretches from Grotticelle Beach all the way to Santa Maria, Ioppolo, Monte Poro, and Aspromonte. On the patio, you can cook and eat, and there’s also a wood-fired oven underneath it. Inside the large room, there’s also a fireplace. The garden is spacious and offers parking for several cars, as well as the option to have a barbecue. There is also a terrace as large as the house itself, from which you can see the Strait of Messina, Sicily, and Mount Etna. Outside the house, beneath the staircase leading to the terrace, there is a washing machine and an outdoor shower with hot and cold water.
