In a moment where I\u2019ve kind of lost faith in the Airbnb concept, Peppino and Francesco reminded me of all the reasons why Airbnb can still be great. This is not just a calming retreat where you fall asleep listening to the waves (it is that, but it is more). It is also the childhood home of Peppino and Francesco. There are family photos on the wall and artwork from family friends. They left eggs and basil and tomatoes in the fridge and fresh bread since we got in so late on the ferry. They proactively arranged taxi transport with the kindest woman. I can\u2019t say enough about the sweet personal touches that made this feel like a home away from home and a special experience. It\u2019s also beautiful and comfortable and clean. I hope I get to return someday!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
