Exclusive and exotic, Panarea is one of the most fashionable tourist destinations in Italy. The best time to visit this popular holiday destination is in the summer months. It is the second smallest island out of the eight Aeolian Islands. Although the number of residents in the island is less than 300, the population goes up significantly in the summer as the influx of visitors rises. Panarea is lately known globally for its increasing population of celebrity tourists. A visit to the Cala Junco is a must when you are planning a holiday here. It is located close to a prehistoric village leading to a stunning tiny cove with a pristine beach as well as gorgeous aquamarine waters. Another must-visit place is Spiaggetta Zimmari, the sole sandy sea beach in Panarea. To make your holiday a memorable one, here is our list of the 11 best Airbnbs in Panarea, Italy.
