I chose Petite Maison at the very last minute, only 1 week before the stay. The photos and description piqued my curiosity, and I was fortunate that they had space available at such short notice. I couldn't have made a better choice. Miriam and Lino are magnets of hospitality; you just want to spend time with them and ask a million questions about their exquisite self-created home transformed into a B&B. It is impossible to describe in a few words and degrading to call it a simple B&B. It is a beautiful home created with much love and passion, open to strangers. Every corner of the house has something artfully created by Lino or Miriam; every detail is a joy to behold. We had the superior room, but with only 2 nights, it was difficult to fully enjoy our choice, and I can only suggest you book and see for yourselves. The room was cool and quiet despite the external heat; great shower, bed, and linen. The house is a 400mt walk from the central hub and port. Parking is external, and we had no problems finding a spot in front. The breakfast served from 08:30-09:00 is a must-do highlight; having read the reviews, we couldn't wait to see it. This is not just breakfast; it is a beautiful work of art incorporating healthy, color-themed foods, fruit, yogurt, juices, fresh croissants, and bread. Your wake-up drink is your choice, requested in advance and ready on the table. Day 1 was Purple, Day 2 Orange; a photo is a must. Miriam's flamboyant company and lighthearted chatter, together with Pilou, the entertaining and demanding Amazon parrot, and Kila, the shy rescue toy York Terrier, made the start of the day perfect. So be prepared to start your daily activities no earlier than 09:45; otherwise, you will not be able to enjoy this enchanting offering. A piece of my heart was stolen during my last visit to the La Maddalena archipelago 25 years ago with a 2-week stay on Caprera. Our way too short 2-night stay at Petite Maison has just taken another piece. It is my goal to return for a longer stay, hoping that we can find space again with Miriam and Lino. Thank you; you made our stay Paradise all the way through.
