Homestays in Sicily, Italy

Very good, mainly cheap

Lovely little hotel, exceptional location. As a solo traveler, I really enjoyed the convenience of having a multitude of restaurants and bars available at my door step. Despite the area being lively, little noise would be heard in the room. Breakfast was delicious, great shower, comfy bed and super friendly host. This was an extremely pleasant stay!

We chose Hybla Major B&B because it was very affordable, at an excellent location, and the ratings were super! And everything was true!!! Gabriele, the owner, got in contact with us before to explain the check-in process. Everything went smooth and we easily checked into our room #2 at Hybla Major three nights ago. The room was simple yet immaculately clean as was the bathroom. Towels were provided and they smelled good (that's a maybe tiny thing to add but it's important to me). We didn't book the breakfast (we wanted to be free and hungry enough to eat whatever we see ”out there” 😂) but we saw the buffet that was waiting for the breakfast-ers earlier in the morning and it looked very good ... 🥐 ☕ Unfortunately, I completely forgot to take pictures of this cute little place, but I will do next time when we go there again. Because: Avola is such a lovely little Sicilian town that we go back and visit again and we'll stay at Hybla Major for sure - that should be convincing enough! 😉 Anyways, I will add a few pictures of Avola, so you know how beautiful it is!

The Serena Palace is a modern, clean and furnished room with a superior taste that reflects the beauty of Mazara. The location is strategic to explore the centre, but the hit is the warm and careful welcome of Marco, a genuine Sicilyan excellence that I strongly advise those who look for comfort and style.

First of all, I would like to praise the owner and his wife. I contacted them one night and said that I hoped to put my luggage down first. As a result, when I arrived at ten o'clock, the hostess gave me the key directly and gave me a large bottle of mineral water. I also asked what I had for breakfast. I said that I would go to catch the car at 5 o'clock in the morning. If there was no breakfast, I understood that if I wanted to prepare, I would give me two eggs, a piece of bread and a glass of milk. In the evening, the host brought me a box of eggs (6), a long loaf of bread, and prepared room temperature milk, which was really moving. In addition, he also has a variety of shampoos and toothpaste. I really hope that his business is good, but I am not satisfied with my stay. First, the Wi-Fi signal in the room is very weak, you have to go to the restaurant to be better; second, the bathroom and toilet are shared, I don't know if I didn't see it clearly, I thought it was a private bathroom. The bathroom had a surf bath, but I wanted to wash a normal shower and found that there was no shower curtain and the faucet was low, making it difficult to wash my hair. Third, the house is on the dark side of the first floor, very cold, the boss also put me heating, I was still awake at one o'clock, and turned a blanket in the cabinet, barely sleeping until four o'clock; Fourth, there is no disposable sheets on the bed, but sleeping on the blanket. The top is also a thin quilt. There is no layer of quilt cover or sheets below. So I suspect that these beddings are not for me alone, because the blanket and thin quilt are thicker and it is impossible to change every day. Wash. Fifth, the price is high, more than 300 a night and the local price is higher than some.

Очень удобное расположение рядом с туристической улицей, откуда рукой подать до достопримечательностей и ресторанов. Номера небольшие, но чистые. Ванная просторная. Уборка проводится каждый день. На стойке рецепции никого обычно не бывает, поэтому задать вопрос проблематично. Нужно писать в вотсапе, чтобы люди пришли к нужному времени, например, для выселения. На месте при заселении с нас попросили залог в размере 100 евро, который вернули в конце. Возможно, мы не увидели эту информацию при бронировании, но лучше иметь это в виду. Персонал не говорит на английском, поэтому приходилось общаться на пальцах.

Very good location at the same price, very close to the business district and the church square. The rooms are very spacious, very different from those cramped hotel rooms. It is more suitable for the whole family to travel together. The breakfast is very rich, and it is not compliant with a five-star hotel. If the check out is too early, the hotel will prepare a take away breakfast in advance. The only thing to note is that the front desk is not staffed 24 hours a day. If you arrive too late, it is best to greet the hotel in advance.

This the no 1 hotel I liked during my trip around Sicily. The hotel is like hidden gem. Beautifully surrounded by olive trees, and love the rosemary at the backyard. The room is spacious, modern and chic. Receptionist is friendly and speak fluent English. I had diner here. It's like having a di er in fine dining. Everything is great, from the services and food. Highly recomended..
