Aficionados of all things Italian will surely recognize the following scene. Rustic white fishing boats drift languidly in a small harbor, embraced by a promenade of narrow buildings that have been painted the earthy, oxidized colors of a Mediterranean landscape.

Nice and clean and worth the money - user review
We stayed 4 nights here during October and had a great experience.
