Guest Reviews
- MATHIEU (7/5): GRAZIE MILLE - Les indications données par message avant d'arriver pour une autonomie complète. Le bruit urbain
- Rosalia (8/5): -
- Piera Giovanna (9/5): -
- nicola (10/5): -
- Katerina (10/5): - Прекрасный отель, в который хочется вернуться снова. Очень удобное расположение: недалеко находятся железнодорожный вокзал, центр города, пляж и супермаркеты — всё в пешей доступности.
Отдельно хочу отметить онлайн-регистрацию: всё организовано очень удобно, быстро и максимально подробно. На сообщения отвечают практически сразу, поэтому никаких трудностей не возникло.
Персонал невероятно приятный и дружелюбный, чувствуется искреннее гостеприимство. Особенно запомнилось, что меня угостили несполо прямо с дерева — такой тёплый и душевный жест создаёт особую атмосферу.
Номер был очень уютный и идеально чистый. В целом атмосфера отеля и самого города прекрасно располагает к спокойному отдыху и наслаждению путешествием. Уезжать совсем не хотелось.
При выезде мне даже подарили магнитик с изображением города на память — очень мило и приятно.
Если ещё раз приеду в этот город, обязательно снова остановлюсь именно здесь.

- Alessia (6/5): - La struttura è carina, la stanza pulita ed il prezzo è accessibile Sconsiglio di pagare in più la colazione perché l’abbiamo trovata di bassa qualità: cornetti confezionati, cornetti mini-congelati, crostatine confezionate , e abbiamo pagato in più 10€ di colazione oltre il prezzo della camera appositamente. La cosa buffa è stata che mentre stavamo bevendo il caffè abbiamo visto la prorietaria uscire da un’altra stanza con un cornetto degno di essere chiamato tale e portarlo fuori , sicuramente non era per i suoi ospiti !!!
A quel punto ci siamo alzate e siamo andate a fare colazione al bar a pochi metri dalla struttura.
Abbiamo pagato stessa cifra ma abbiamo fatto una buona colazione. Inoltre i muri sono troppo sottili si sente tutto ( anche troppo ), avete capito cosa si intende non c’è bisogno che vado nello specifico.
- Lenka (10/5): - Vše perfektní, doporučuji.
- Audeline (8/5): -
- Maura (10/5): - La stanza era pulita e accogliente, luminosa e moderna negli arredi , doccia molto grande e sanitari puliti e moderni. Il piccolo resede a comune è molto comodo e utile. La posizione è perfetta Avola si gira benissimo a piedi ed in dieci minuti circa si arriva nel centro ed alla pasticceria più bella della città . La proprietaria gentile e disponibile . Lo consiglio
- Benenati (10/5): - Posizione comoda a 500m dal centro, raggiungibile quindi a piedi, e la spiaggia ad un Km circa. Alloggi evidentemente da poco ristrutturati, arredati in modo semplice ma funzionale. Il bagno della nostra camera molto grande e raffinato. Stanza climatizzata e molto ben isolata dai rumori della strada adiacente, di cui ci siamo accorti solo aprendo le persiane... Carina la corte interna in comune a disposizione degli ospiti, dove suppongo, nella bella stagione, si possa consumare la colazione o godersi un po' di aria e di sole. Pulizia ECCELLENTE. Il televisore in camera un po' piccolo.
- LAETITIA (9/5): - Chambre et literie au top et très propre, bien placé
- Maja (9/5): - Breakfast really good, Hosts super nice.
Room modern and clean.
Nice option to have breakfast outside on the terrace
- Francesco (9/5): -
- Vanessa (10/5): An excellent place to stay as a solo traveler in Avola. Highly recommend and would stay again. - Great breakfast, great location, great room with very nice bathroom. Very friendly, helpful, and communicative staff. The mini split A/C blew on me during the night and gave me a bit of a sore throat.
- Claudia (10/5): Un angolo di quiete e calore familiare, a due passi dal mare e dal cuore di Avola. - Abbiamo trascorso una bellissima vacanza ad Avola e la scelta di questa struttura ha reso tutto ancora più piacevole. Si tratta di una gestione familiare davvero accogliente. La struttura è curata con grande attenzione: esteticamente bella, pulita, impreziosita da splendide fotografie del territorio scattate dal proprietario stesso, che aggiungono un tocco personale e autentico agli ambienti.
La posizione è ideale: si trova su una strada tranquilla, con comodo parcheggio in strada, a pochi minuti dal mare e a due passi dal centro storico.
Abbiamo apprezzato molto anche le chiacchiere e i consigli ricevuti, piccoli momenti di scambio che ci hanno fatto sentire parte della casa. Molto buona anche la colazione: piatti preparati in casa, genuini e curati, che raccontano l’amore per la tradizione e per l’ospitalità.
Un soggiorno che porteremo nel cuore. Grazie di tutto!
- Giovanna (10/5): -
- Maria (9/5): Da ritornare sicuramente - Colazione buona, posizione eccellente, ottima per visitare altri paesi vicini , Noto, Ortigia,ecc , parcheggio facile . Struttura nuova ,proprietari gentili
- Maciej (10/5): Wygodny pokój, jeśli nie potrzebujesz kuchni. - Czysty apartament w spokojnej okolicy, można dojść do plaży w 15 minut. Bardzo miły właściciel. Apartament szybko się ogrzał po włączeniu klimatyzacji. Wszystko zgodnie z opisem.

- Amber (8/5): Simpel maar netjes en schoon - Simpel maar netjes en schoon. Ligging naast een tankstation.
- Criscione (9/5): -
- Simone (8/5): - Nel contesto ben organizzato struttura e camere nuove pulizia ottima nella struttura.
- Marzio Consentino (7/5): Bella struttura - Struttura nuova molto carina, ottima posizione, facile check-in, ottima comunicazione con la proprietà, cortile carino, pulizia. Scarsa insonorizzazione con il corridoio, la mattina il rumore della sala colazione/corridoio era fastidioso.
Il materasso veramente scomodo che tende ad infossarsi, non siamo riusciti a dormire bene, unica vera pecca della vacanza. Consiglio allo staff di sostituirli
- Meredith (10/5): - Extremely clean, super cold air conditioning, beautifully displayed breakfast, and a nice terrace Occasional noise from the street and the other rooms
- Gaetano (8/5): ottima esperienza, struttura che posso consigliare tranquillamente, con proprietari fantastici - Colazione molto buona, praticamente tutti i dolci fatti in casa, compreso yogurt e specialità locali. Possibilita' di aver sia dolce che salato e anche frutta.
Posizione piu' che buona, vicino al centro di Avola e anche alla spiaggia, ma sopratutto ritengo che Avola sia in posizione strategica per visitare la zona che va da Siracusa a Portopalo e anche Catania è raggiungibile in 1 ora di macchina. Proprietari molto gentili e attenti al cliente. A richiesta gratuitamente danno anche l'ombrellone per usufruire della spiaggia libera. Parcheggio libero fronte l'entrata della struttura è gratuito Nulla di significativo da segnalare, personalmente ritengo i materassi e i cuscini "duri", ma poi è un parere personale .
Buona l'insonorizzazione della stanza, poi chiaramente dipende dai clienti vicini.
- Giuliano (9/5): Comodo, rilassante, bello - Stanza giusta per una sola persona, pulita, accogliente. Unica nota negativa, manca il bidet, ma è ampiamente segnalato
- LAURA (10/5): - ..come essere a casa .. Gabriele attento e pronto a fornire link e indicazioni ..le torte fatte in casa strepitose ..lo yogurt, le marmellate, il latte di mandorle, la colomba: tutto produzione km 0 dalla sig.ra Antonella... pulizia della camera impeccabile ...Ci torneremo!! Nulla
- salvatore Riccardo (10/5): -
- ercole (9/5): - La pulizia ,la colazione varia dolce o salato a buffet, la posizione della struttura strategica,la disponibilità del personale.
.
- Moschetto (6/5): - Camera grande Proprietario scontroso che sembrava seccato, accoglienza zero, mica ci fa un favore siamo clienti.
- Sofie (9/5): Great place for vacation in Avola - Great location in Avola, very nice, clean and quiet B&B. Parking on the street right outside was great and nice breakfast. The hosts are very nice and kind.
- Giada (10/5): - Consigliatissimo
- isabelle (10/5): - Bon séjour parking facile dans la rue
Ménage tous les jours
Petit déjeuner correct
Je recommande
- Sandro (8/5): - Letti e cuscini veramente comodi, camera e bagno spaziosi e molto carini.
- Kenneth (10/5): Value for money !! - Super sted. Ny renoveret, rent og pænt. Parkering gratis lige uden for døren.
- Patricia (9/5): Superb - Nice, clean apartment. Easy to self check in. Enough free parking spaces in front of apartment. 10 minutes of walk to centre. Some rules, for exemple (that you shouldnt eat in room).
All rules could be written on one sheet paper not on 3.
- Cooper (8/5): - My wife and I booked this B&B for our honeymoon, the price and the rooms are very good quality. We enjoyed staying here, the owner is very friendly and helped me out with a few things. He doesn’t live in the building but his mother does and she was great. She gave my wife and I some beach towels because we forgot ours at home in the U.S. I’m not 100% sure who the older woman is that cooks the breakfast every morning but it is to die for, she makes all sorts of foods for the guests in the mornings which are delicious. They arrange tables in coordination with the guests staying there. One thing that kinda bothered my wife was you cannot eat inside the rooms, we aren’t sure if that’s just a Sicilian B&B thing. Everyone that runs the B&B together, you guys are doing an awesome job making this place very pleasant place to stay, all are very kind and have great hospitality! Avola in general has a genuine Sicilian culture so i recommend anyone that wants to see what real Sicilians are like stay here its worth it, you’ll see the difference between the touristy bigger cities and appreciate the little peaceful town of Avola even more. The beach is very close and the food at every restaurant we ate in the area was very good. Just make sure you practice your Sicilian or download a good translator app because the language is much different then Italian! Syracusa, Taormina, and Mt Etna are a max hour and a half drive.
- Adrian (10/5): Perfect place - Perfect accommodation for those wishing to explore the eastern-southern part of Sicily. 20 minutes drive to Noto and further to Modica and Scicli. The place is located 2-minute walk from Avola city centre, a lot of shops nearby and free parking on the street (easy!). The room is perfectly clean, comfy beds, fridge and kettle. Super good communication with the owner, I arrived after 20:00 and easily got into the room with directions received beforehand. I would come back :) Thank you!
- Stefan (10/5): - Die Kommunikation mit der Gastgeberin war super!! Das Zimmer ist sauber, hell und freundlich eingerichtet, nur einen Haartrockner habe ich vermisst 😉 Die Terrasse lädt für laue Sommerabende ein.
Zu Fuß in die Innenstadt und zum Strand sind es jeweils ca. 15 Minuten. Avola ist im Verhältnis zu anderen Städten auf Sizilien sauberer und hat eine menge Charme 😉
- Tereza (10/5): Exceptional - I stayed only one night and it was amazing place. All you need is there including safe parking in front of the house. Gabriele contacted me via WhatsApp and provided all information there. For some people it can be a bit noisy since the window is on busy street.
- Terry (8/5): The hosts mother makes the best mandarin jam & tart. - The mattress & pillow were memory foam and the most comfortable we had for all holiday.
It was very clean and quiet. Although a kettle & cups you had to supply your own coffee/tea.
- Luca (10/5): Exceptional -
- Martina (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect. -
- Takashi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Can (8/5): We would book the B&B again and thank Gabriele and family for the lovely stay. - Gabriele is a wonderful host, and the bed & breakfast is very clean and well-maintained. Check-in was uncomplicated; Gabriele even sent us a convenient video message via WhatsApp, so we quickly found our room. Breakfast offers a good selection of sweet and savory items, including homemade jam and cake—simply delicious. Unfortunately, there were eggs only on the last day of our stay, but that's okay.
It was our first time staying at a bed & breakfast; we usually prefer staying in higher-category hotels. Nonetheless, we leave with positive feelings and enjoyed the family atmosphere.
The B&B is perfectly located in Avola, from where you can easily visit many other cities in Sicily. The road to Avola Antica is simply wonderful. There are countless beaches in the area; we even found a small cove where we could enjoy our time alone. We do, however, want to leave a small but well-intentioned critique. Unfortunately, the hand soap was not refilled, and only two very small shampoo bottles are provided in the shower. These are at least refilled. This might not be customary for a B&B, but we found it somewhat inconvenient.
During the 90-minute breakfast period, chairs from other tables are cleared away, quickly creating an uncomfortable atmosphere and restlessness. We also recommend placing small plates at the buffet, as it would be nice to have a clean plate if you want to eat a croissant after oily olives.
- Andrei (10/5): - Great renovated hotel in a small sleepy town of Avola with an easy access to free beaches, free street parking. Nice helpful hostess and her staff. Luxury rooms, good continental breakfast, quiet area for a very small price! I strongly recommend it. In case you drive a car and want to visit sights in neighboring Syracuse, do not fall for expensive options in Syracuse, stay in this hotel and simply drive very short distance to Syracuse and use historical area available parking and walk to all major sights.
- Maartenvl (8/5): Great room but amplifies noice - The room was perfect, very modern and lots of space. The owner was very friendly and the breakfast was good. Location-wise it was very close to major sights and the beach/city center. Soundproofing is really bad and I had the misfortune of having very loud Italian guests all around me. There was absolutely no courtesy and they came in at Midnight talking loudly in the halls. They couldn't even hear me shouting 'silencio', so loud were they. The entire house echoes unfortunately.
- natale (10/5): - B&b vicino al centro di Avola. Camera pulita, ampia e comoda. Proprietario discreto e gentile.
- Matteo (8/5): Very good -
- Ioseph (10/5): - Tutto perfetto

- Rothart (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jiri (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, quiet, comfortable bed, nice bathroom, good breakfast. Close to centre. Close to many sights in the SW of Sicilly.
- Jolita (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great, thank you for your lovely hospitality!
- Alban (10/5): Best host. He drove us in the bus station. Perfect fresh breakfast.
Come back again - Exeptional service Nothing
- Christopher (8/5): Very good - Very clean and super kind people there! Very good breakfast.
- Philip (10/5): - Hybla Major B&B was perfect for us. The room was clean, modern and safe as was the bathroom. The mattress was comforable, cleran and warm. The included breakfast was delicious and the staff helpful, warm and friendly. We found good food within a few minute walk of the B&B. Great place to stay.
- Fornal (7/5): Good - We enjoy a little backyard where you can relax and smoke, breakfast was tasty, various and traditional. The mattress was collapsing, the fridge didn’t work, the rain shower was hard to use and work
- Acate (10/5): The BEST B&B in all of Avola! Stay here instead of Airbnb! The breakfasts are also INCREDIBLE! - We had a WONDERFUL stay in Hybla Major B&B - we arrived in the middle of a rare cyclone, and Gabriele and her son were our SAVIOURS. When all the restaurants were closed, Gabriele cooked us a delicious pasta made with organic tomatoes by her mother, complete with fresh homemade potato bread and fruit for dessert.
The breakfasts here were the best we've had in all of Sicily; several varieties of freshly baked homemade cakes and sweets on the buffet table, plus homemade organic antipasti (e.g: homegrown courgettes and mint, peperoncino, fresh tomatoes, locally grown olives) and delicious freshly made organic bread. The home-made creamy yoghurt, candied orange peel and mandarin jam were also a highlight, alongside a caffé macchiato!
Gabriele's son also speaks excellent English and kindly helped us out with bus/train times. He is also a talented photographer and his photos of the local area adorn the walls, which is a nice touch. Gabriele speaks Spanish which was also useful (as I don't have any Italian!) She gave us a brilliant food recommendation - Mammarancina around the corner - which was much appreciated; €3.50 for a slice of the best porcetta pizza slice you will ever taste and just €3/3.50 for beautifully flavoured arancini and lovely wait staff.
The room was spotless, shower hot, heating good (necessary for February) and the location couldn't have been better. The B&B is 1 minute walk from two supermarkets, and a minute's walk to various bars and restaurants of excellent quality. It is also just a few minutes walk from the main square Piazza Trieste.
Avola is great if you want to travel to Siracusa/Ortigia or Noto for a day trip, too. Sadly we didn't get to see much of the town itself (or visit the almond museum) due to the storm, but what we did see looked beautiful.
Thank you, Hybla Major! We will be telling ALL our friends to stay here - and we will remember the incredible breakfasts for a long time to come, too! We decided against staying in an Airbnb and I'm so glad we did! Book here now!X
- Beata (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice room, everything was new. The city of Avola is a perfect location to visit many other places. Breakfasts were delicious - especially home made bread and tomatoes with olive oil.
- Julio (10/5): Very clean, homemade products for breakfast and good location to travel around the area. - Family business, very clean property and amazing breakfast. Host does homemade bread, yoghurt, biscuits, marmalade, tomato salad.. it was very good quality.
Very easy to park opposite the building and good location for exploring the area. More available information about the area
- Elizabeth (10/5): Exceptional -
- Orsolya (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lois (10/5): One of the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at - The owners and managers of the property are wonderful Gabrielle is always there or you can WhatsApp him and he’ll always respond immediately The rooms are immaculate new hot water AC great breakfast. Everything was super
- Bogdana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marcin (9/5): Great, new and clean apartment with very kind and helpful hosts. Amazing breakfast! - Great hospitality from the stuff - everyone was very helpful. New and clean apartment (everything is fresh). Breakfast was very good with home made bread and marmalades, biscuits, cakes etc.
Free parking space in front of the entrance. Beach umbrellas available to use for free.
- Kostile (9/5): Superb - Nice enough place. Good breakfast, smack down in the middle of Avola, so close to everything else. Window was facing the street, and it's a busy street. Even at night there were cars/motors passing by, so if you thought to leave the window open during the night you should think again. Bit pricey, I've had better accommodations for this much money.
- Gian luca (10/5): Bravi - Tutto perfetto. Stanza grande e pulitissima. Ottima la colazione.
Grande disponibilità e professionalità.
Complimenti
- Serena (10/5): - Gabriele e la madre gentilissimi .
Pulizia impeccabile e colazione fatta in casa 10e lode pane a lievitazione naturale marmellate fatte dalla sigra ogni mattina ti sorprendono con una novità culinaria.
- Patricia (10/5): Genial!! - Nos encantó todo! La habitación muy limpia, amplia y luminosa, colchón muy cómodo, desayuno excelente, riquísimos productos elaborados por ellos. Todo un lujo. Gracias por vuestra amabilidad y por habernos hecho pasar unos días maravillosos.
- oflight07 (10/5): Excellent fabulous B&B!!! - My friends and I stayed here 4 nights. Each room was modern, the beds were comfortable, the A/C cooled quickly and the entire property was very clean! All of the aforementioned is great BUT the ABSOLUTE best part of this stay was Antonella and Gabriele!!!
Okay the best food I have ever eaten at a B&B, literally the best!!! Antonella is a master baker uses only fresh local organic ingredients. Each morning there is an extra special something yummy from lemon cakes to homemade cannoli!!! From pastries to jams to cooking fish and veggies to local cheeses and homemade yogurt!!! The pictures attached don’t show the various foods or the homemade yogurt because we ate it all! LOL Simply delicious and you can taste her love and care in each bite.
Gabriele is extremely helpful and informative! He is thoughtful and provides suggestions for locations to see based on your interests. He is a very talented photographer and you will see his photos throughout the property.
We wish them continued success and we thank them for making us feel at home!
- curtbro4 (10/5): THE BEST of Avola - This is my third trip to Sicily and my first to Avola. In all those times and ALL the places I’ve stayed none can compare to this B&B. The area is quiet but well located. The beds are the most comfortable and all the home baked goods are delicious. Had the best cannolo in my life! Just have to ask for one. There is no question about coming back to this jewel of a place. Don’t believe me? Find out yourself.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Tutto eccellente, dalle colazioni home Made preparate con amore dalla mamma di Gabriele alla stanza. Sia il salato ( il pane) che il dolce ( cornetti, brioche) preparati con lievito madre ultra digeribile. E poi granite di mandorla , cannolate, ricotta e marmellate home Made per riempire cornetti e brioche. Materasso comodissimo, condizionatore silenzioso ... si dormiva benissimo. Doccia ampia. Posizione strategica della struttura tra Siracusa , Vendicari, le splendide spiagge di carratois e Sampieri. E poi a due passi da Noto e dai laghetti di Cavagrande. Insomma si può visitare comodamente tutto il val di noto e le meraviglie artistiche di Ragusa Ibla , Modica , Palazzolo Acreide ecc..
Un B&b da consigliare.
- LRM830 (10/5): Great hosts and pleasant environment - Shouldn't be making this review as it will only make it that much more difficult to find accommodation next time we visit. However, the hosts thoroughly deserve it. Most breakfast food is homemade and are ready to look after everyone’s needs. Bedrooms, dining area, kitchen and outside area are spotlessly clean, location is just perfect . Easy parking and pleasant surroundings. Avola is worth visiting also and once again hosts can give valid tips what to do and where to eat. Can’t wai5 to go back%
- toni4475 (10/5): Nice Host and Fantastic Breakfast - The place offers nice, spacious, and clean rooms. The host is very nice and offers plenty of useful tips and advice. The breaksfast is breathtakingly fantastic. Avola is a great location to discover Siracusa and the southeast of Sicily.
- Federica (10/5): Ottimo - Ottima esperienza! Persone gentilissime, molto disponibili e simpatiche! Camere arredate moderne e pulite. Colazione superlativa, abbondante e sana con prodotti genuini! Complimenti Gabriele ed Antonella
- Coastal150190 (10/5): Great hospitality and amazing breakfast - Gabriele was a great host who welcomed us and was so helpful throughout our trip. From giving us suggestions about day trips, what not to miss to being a huge help when we got a flat tyre and directed us to someone who would fix it up the street.
We continue to tell our friends about the amazing breakfast here, with home made cakes, treats (thank you Gabriele’s mum!) and pickings from various relatives farms. We also want to thank Gabriele’s mum and grandmother for their hospitality, we felt at home here and would love to come back!
- serenap493 (10/5): Very pleasant stay at Avola - We booked this B&B for 4 nights in June.
There are spacious, comfortable, modern and very clean rooms. Furthermore, there were enough parking places in front of the B&B. The rooms were also all equipped with air conditioner which is really helpful during the summer period.
Another big plus, was the rich breakfast with typical fresh sicilian products such as brioches, bread, cakes, jams, granita, fruits etc. Everthing was rigorously self-made by the mother of the owner, Antonella. She spoiled us every day with her culinary specialties :-)
The owner, Gabriele, was very kind and helpful in trying to make our stay as pleasant as possible. He gave us good advices about the best places to visit in the area which was very useful.
Avola is a small and charming town which offers beautiful spots and beaches. Furthermore it is a strategic point as it is not far away from other beautiful spots such as Noto, Syracuse, Ortigia, Marzamemi etc.
This was one of the best places we have ever stayed so far and we absolutely recommend it to everybody. Thank you again to Gabriele and Antonella for making our stay unforgettable. We are sure that we will come back again to Hybla Major.
Kind regards from Rosario & Serena
- Salvatore Rocco (10/5): OTTIMO SOGGIORNO - B&B nuovo, moderno e arredato con gusto.
In ottima posizione per chi vuole esplorare la Sicilia Orientale.
Camere spaziose e pulite, ma i veri ingredienti che hanno reso indimenticabile il nostro soggiorno sono la CORDIALITÀ e la DISPONIBILITÀ di Gabriele, sempre pronto a consigliarci al meglio e attento ad ogni nostra richiesta e la PASSIONE per la cucina di sua mamma, capace ogni giorno di portare a tavola un nuovo assaggio di Sicilia, rendendo le colazioni un momento unico.
Grazie ancora, speriamo che le nostre strade si possano di nuovo incontrare in futuro.

- Verified traveler (10/5): Consigliatissimo !!! - Posizione strategica per visitare Noto,Modica ,Ragusa ,Siracusa e le belle spiagge della zona.Stanze ampie, moderne con bagno molto grande.Tutto nuovissimo con tutti i confort. Livello di pulizia altissimo. I gestori gentilissimi sono molto disponibili ti sanno consigliare al meglio i luoghi da visitare. Le colazioni sublimi con prodotti vari ogni giorno e fatti in casa dalla proprietaria stessa. Un valore aggiunto : viene utilizzata energia solare e per la colazione vengono usati molti prodotti bio.
Consiglio vivamente questo B&B
- sharonv909 (10/5): Perfection - The B & B is wonderful! The photos tell the truth! We stayed here May 2018. The rooms are spacious, perfectly clean and very beautiful. Breakfast was generous and included delicious, homemade sweets. The city center is a short walk heading in one direction, the sea a short walk in the opposite direction. The Interbus bus stop is just across the street so it is easy to get to the airport in Catania or to go sightseeing in Noto or Syracuse. But once you get to Avola, you won’t want to leave! It is a charming small town with plenty of spots for a granita or gelato and a lovely beach just perfect for relaxing. Gabriele knows all about the area and he is very happy to make suggestions for sightseeing and restaurants. We can’t wait to go back!
- Krzysztof (10/5): More than perfect! Great hosting, beautiful room - It was more then perfect. We've had been there for three nights on our honeymoon. Spent such a nice time in very spacious, freshly made beatifully-design room with bathroom. We can highly recommend it also for the breakfast - fresh cakes and Cornetto hand-made by mother of host. For couple of really warm words deserves also host, Gabriele. Not only showed us the neighborhood but also helped us with communication - took us to Cava Grande and helped to rent a car in Avola. Theoretically it is regular B&B, but in fact we felt like really being home, adorated and treated like special guests. To sum up - we not only recommend it but also promise that will come back one day!
