Description
The B&B "La Terrazza sul mare" of the Monello Family was born from the pleasure to give hospitality, in the style of typical sicilian tradition.

It's situayed in Avola, "pearl of the Ionio Sea", in front of the lido Tremoli's beach, set up in a villa of three floors.

The ground floor is conceived as reception and breakfast room. The first floor is completely reserved to the Monello's family (Paolo, Grazia, and their sons Salvo, Cristian & Andrea). The B&B guest rooms are arranged on the second floor. All rooms, look east towards to the sea, are furnished with clima, tv, fridgebar, and safe-deposit box.

The villa has a direct access to the sea and it's surrounded by a 600 mq garden with palm trees and an english painstaking lawn.

It will become during the hot summertime nights, a magic scenery of unforgettable thematic evenings where the guests may taste typical Sicilian foods.

This was my third visit to the wonderful B&B La Terrazza sul Mare and we were not disappointed. It is the most perfect place to stay. The Monello Family are so welcoming and accommodating, they are incredibly special people who go out of their way to make you comfortable. The place itself is quiet and chilled out. It felt like an oasis amidst the crowds of ferragosto! Avola is fabulous and close to some amazing beaches so the location is perfect. Breakfast consists mostly of homemade goodies, fruits from the Monello's farm and even jam made from those fruits. My daughter, who can be a fussy eater, ate very well at breakfast! Our whole holiday experience was so special and we would definitely come again, we would come every year if we could! Thank you for having us to stay!

We spent a week at this property and had a great time. The owners are always kind and available for a chat. The B&B allows direct access to the sea, provided you have suitable shoes because there are rocks. The garden is an oasis of peace where you can sunbathe in complete tranquility. The breakfast is plentiful. We also made friends with other guests, which helped create a pleasant atmosphere of familiarity that left us with a pleasant memory of the holiday.

Great location, seafront with direct access to the beach (about 100 meters from the internal gate). Well-kept and well-maintained structure, very well-kept English lawn. Outside the center of Avola and close to the seafront (reachable in 5 minutes by car), in a quiet location. Very comfortable superior room, and sea view from three different points (even from the bathroom!). The owners are very kind and discreet, available and always ready to have a chat. The only note about breakfast: little variety and few local products... with the excellent raw materials you have in southeastern Sicily, you should dare more! Overall, 4 very satisfying days.

The structure is located in a very beautiful and strategic position. Beautiful garden directly by the sea. Convenient parking. It's a pity that the posidonia has accumulated on the shore and makes access to the sea from the garden impossible. The room was a bit small and the wardrobe insufficient. However, we slept well because the sea breeze naturally refreshes the air (without the need to turn on the air conditioner).

Great structure overlooking a wonderful sea, what a pleasure to go down just with a towel to dive into the sea! Let's talk about the well-kept garden where you can relax to read or eat: spectacular. Excellent cleanliness every day, definitely better than some hotels. Complete breakfast with local food and fruits where the local delicacies could not be missing: Almonds. Thanks to the staff and especially to the very kind Mrs. Grazia and her husband with whom we chatted cordially.

We stayed at B&B La Terrazza sul Mare during the first week of August, and we truly had a magnificent holiday, full of serenity and the beauty of nature, expressed by the well-kept garden and the splendid sea. The location of the property is excellent: it is indeed located in front of a stretch of sea that can only be accessed through the rocks, but fortunately 100 m ahead there is a sandy beach with a really clean sea (there was even a spring), and just 5 minutes by car you can reach the beautiful Pantanello beach. The excellent hospitality of the owners is to be appreciated, who delighted us every morning with a rich, delicious and genuine breakfast. As for the rooms, the cleanliness was impeccable and the furnishing of a warm style, suitable for the style of the property and the temperament of the owners, very sunny and helpful. Overall, a highly recommended B&B!

A great place to stay. Super room with balcony and sea view. Excellent sandy beach, good for swimming right on the doorstep. First-class breakfast; especially loved the fresh fruit. Great to be able to sit outside in the garden with a sea view while having breakfast. Hosts are friendly and helpful. Honesty bar for water, beer & wine much appreciated. Very good eating places within walking distance, though the number is limited. Parking on site but tight entry to the parking area. The only negative was that it was not made clear before we arrived that credit/debit cards were not accepted and we had to pay cash. In addition to the quoted price, tourist tax was added.

Wonderful! The house is exactly like the pictures, is located in Avola. Avola is 15 minutes drive from Syracusa, nice and beautiful city. With a lovely and big free beach. Grazia and paulo are lovely and super welcoming. Their house is really by the sea, exemplary cleanliness. The beach is 20 meters from the house by a path almost private. The parking of the house is perfect. Having breakfast in the garden facing the sea is just a marvel. The breakfast is great, fruit, cakes, salty and the coffee is really good. In addition to the top of the alley I advise you a gourmet stop to discover the products of sicily to "il terrone" at a really low price! all spend exceptional holidays.

Posto bellissimo con accesso diretto alla spiaggia, comodissimo! Bello il giardino vista mare dove si può fare colazione, rilassarsi e fare una doccia veloce quando si torna dalla spiaggia. Camera molto spaziosa (eravamo 2 adulti e 2 bambine), luminosa e pulitissima. Colazione perfetta con prodotti locali buonissimi. Sicuramente il valore aggiunto sono i gestori, molto cordiali e disponibilissimi ad ogni esigenza. Purtroppo abbiamo soggiornato solo 2 notti ma sicuramente ci ritorneremo. Lo consigliamo a tutti quelli che hanno bambini, che vogliono rilassarsi e magari andare in spiaggia senza avere l'incubo di dover prendere l'auto anche in ferie.

Les petits-déjeunés sont copieux et délicieux avec confiture maison et de saison (oranges un vrai délice, coing et prunes) + petits gâteaux préparés la veille par la maîtresse de maison. Les petits-déjeunés sont pris sur la pelouse en face de la mer. Je le conseille vivement.
