Comfortable and tastefully-decorated apartment
The apartment was clean, well equipped and tastefully decorated, in a quiet location just off the main road. There is outdoor space where we could sit, relax and eat. The owner was friendly and helpful. Riposto itself is a small and less touristy town then elsewhere along the coast (which we liked) but has a good range of restaurants and food shops. It is also a great location for visiting Etna, Taormina, Catania, etc

Urlaub "Zuhause" / Vacanze a "casa"
Wir wurden sehr freundlich von der Familie Grasso empfangen. Sie sind sehr diskret und trotzdem immer zu erreichen, wenn man was brauchte. Die Wohnung hat alles was man braucht und in der Umgebung gibt es auch genug Restaurants, Bäckereien und Lebensmittelläden. Da ich meine Wurzeln in Riposto habe, war es für uns ein Urlaub in der Heimat. Vielen Dank nochmal an die Familie Grasso. Abbiamo ricevuto un'accoglienza molto cordiale da parte della famiglia Grasso. Sono molto discreti e comunque sempre disponibili quando hai bisogno di qualcosa. L'appartamento ha tutto il necessario e nella zona ci sono molti ristoranti, panetterie e negozi di alimentari. Dato che ho le mie radici a Riposto, per noi era una vacanza a casa. Grazie ancora alla famiglia Grasso

Prachtig huis nabij centrum van Riposto
Salvatore and his son Giuseppe were very helpful and very kind people. Attention: when you make a reservation for two persons (as we did) you get the basement. The ground floor is reserved for four persons or more.

Znakomite miejsce wypadowe do zwiedzenia wschodniego wybrzeża Sycylii i zobaczenia Etny
Obszerny apartament ze wszystkimi wygodami: efektywna klimatyzacją, zmywarką, pralką i kuchnią. W naszym wypadku wystarczająca przestrzeń dla małżeństwa i dwóch nastolatków. Wspaniały, uczynny i dyskretny gospodarz, wielkie dzięki Salvatore !!! Obiekt znajduje się na osiedlu za zamykaną bramą, ma swoje własne zabezpieczenia - bramę i furtkę na piloty/elektromagnetyczny zamek, bardzo bezpiecznie. Miejscowość nie jest popularnym kurortem, stąd na plaży z małych kamyczków mniej turystów, raczej Włosi na wakacjach. W pobliżu jeden większy supermarket, kilka małych knajpek - wystarczająco. Punktem odniesienia jest Katania - około 30-40 minut pociągiem, najbliższa stacja Giarre-Riposto oddalona o 25 minut spaceru. Stamtąd połączenia do wszystkich miast Sycylii i na lotnisko. Czarująca jest wąskotorówka Circumetnea, która objeżdża dookoła Etnę, ale uwaga to nie jest kolejka turystyczna, zdobycie biletów wymaga trochę wysiłku, najlepiej kupić w Katanii a stacja nie jest ta sama co głównej kolei. Lepiej trochę złapać włoskiego, bo angielski nie zawsze się przydaje.
