La Casetta della Coppia

The house is located on the first floor of the western building, rebuilt in 2007 and refurbished again in 2017. Formerly, it was a warehouse for capers and other local produce, now rebuilt to form a private, welcoming studio apartment for a couple, hence its name (La Coppia). It has the advantage of a splendid terrace, giving views both of the astounding island landscape and the Aeolian Sea, and of the series of vineyards rising up the slopes of the imposing Fossa delle Felci mountain, some 1000 metres high.

From the car park, a short slope and stone path through the garden lead to the outside steps up to the terrace, in Aeolian style with its ‘bisuoli’ (wall seating), ‘pulere’ (columns), and thatched roof, table, chairs and sunbeds, from where to enjoy the beautiful, panoramic view to the east of the islands of Panarea and Stromboli. The main entrance leads to the wide area with double bed, small balcony with views of sea and sky, and to the bathroom via the kitchen area with typical Sicilian tiles.

The Casetta and terrace are paved with precious Sicilian terracotta, treated to protect it, with a natural surface. The Casetta is surrounded by the garden with areas for sunbeds and for reading, outdoor showers, the laundry area and other services. Close to the Casetta are bars, restaurants, a supermarket, petrol station, pharmacy, health centre, car and scooter hire, boat hire, cash machine, post office.
