Description
"Al Chiaro di Luna" is located in the city of Paola, three kilometers away from the famous Sanctuary of St. Francis, on a hill overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. As the owners and managers of the bed and breakfast, we live on the upper floor, while we have reserved three spacious rooms on the ground floor for our guests, each with its own independent entrance and private bathroom. For breakfast, and to enjoy homemade sweets and delicacies made with the fruit from our trees, you will have access to the breakfast room and the adjacent garden. On clear days, while sipping a good coffee, you may even catch a glimpse of the Aeolian Islands on the horizon. Our aim is to make you feel like part of our family rather than just customers, by providing a peaceful and clean environment with friendly service. Whether you choose to go to the beach or relax in the garden, whether you are traveling for business or for a day trip, we will strive to meet your needs and turn a simple stay into a pleasant memory to share and repeat over time.

Perfect place to spend a holiday, surrounded by nature and with a breathtaking view (during the day, at sunset and at night). The owners are always available for any request. The rooms are well furnished, cozy, very clean and tidy, and everything is cared for down to the smallest detail. Highly recommended for any type of holiday.

Simply fantastic. The best place to spend your holidays, surrounded by nature, the singing of cicadas, and with a breathtaking view. The owners, Claudia and Lucio, with the help of their wonderful daughters, work every day to make customers feel at ease, with their kindness, friendliness, and availability. The rooms are cozy, very clean and tidy, and everything is taken care of in the smallest details. It is suitable for all types of holidays thanks to its versatility: for families looking for a place not far from the sea (just take the car to reach the beach in a few minutes), for those who want to spend a quiet and relaxing holiday... and for couples who want to have a romantic holiday. In the evening, you will find yourself in front of a spectacular panorama, "Al Chiaro di Luna", where only the stars and the reflection of the moon shining in the sea will keep you company. Thanks to "Al Chiaro di Luna", you will spend an unforgettable holiday.

If you have never experienced a seaside holiday that also includes the tranquility and relaxation that a stay in the hills can provide, then we wholeheartedly recommend spending some time in this establishment. To begin with, the rooms (and it is reductive to call them that) are very welcoming, spotless, and very well-kept. The varied and abundant breakfast is lovingly prepared by the owner, who personally bakes delicious cakes. The location, although it may seem a bit remote at first glance, will soon be greatly appreciated for the magnificent view, the cooler air compared to sea level, and, not coincidentally, the "moonlight" in the evening. Lastly, but not least, we would like to mention the kindness and friendliness of the owners Claudia and Lucio and their lovely daughters, who were always available to advise us and made us feel like family.
