Hey from Santo Giovanni

Member since January 2010 | 53,129 hits

Hello everyone,
my name is Santo (but do not take me too seriously), I'm almost 33, and after 10 years spent in Italy and around the world, I decided to return to my beautiful land to open this delightful building and serve all those who, like me, are great travelers and adventurers.

I tried to create, with the whole complicity of my wonderful mother, a healthy environment, family and relaxing atmosphere where human relationships, respect and cooperation go over everything.

I'm waiting for you,
See you Soon,
Santo Valastro.

B&B Epos is delightful and very clean, in a central location. The breakfast is excellent and abundant. From our "Roof Sea View" room there is a splendid sea view and a parking space for the car not far away. Santo, the owner, is a delightful person, always willing to make everything perfect!

One of the best B&Bs we have stayed at! Santo is a spectacular host, kind, helpful, welcoming, and always smiling. The breakfast is delicious and plentiful. Quiet place, just steps from the sea and halfway between Taormina and Syracuse. We will definitely return! Aci Trezza has remained in our hearts, thank you for everything Santo!

The host Santo was an excellent host, always present and ready to solve any problems (which, however, did not occur) and to give you tourist advice. The presence of private parking nearby is important. If I return to the area, I will definitely keep him in mind.

We had already been here ten years ago and we returned with great pleasure. Santo is a perfect host, friendly and welcoming, always available to provide guests with valuable suggestions for daily excursions. Also, not to mention, he prepares excellent breakfasts, both sweet and savory. The property is centrally located, just a few meters from the port. What can I say, everything is perfect for a vacation in Sicily!

Beautiful place, in 5 minutes on foot you are in the center and by the sea. It has private parking. Room very beautiful even if a bit small, well maintained and very clean. A plentiful breakfast with fresh croissants and cakes. The owner is very kind and extremely helpful.

Nice B&B in the center of Aci Trezza. Quiet, clean, and very well-kept. Wide selection for breakfast. Parking space provided by the manager. If the opportunity arises, I will definitely return.

A very pleasant house with a flowery patio, very well located near the small fishing port, I only spent one night there, it's a shame, I would have loved to taste all those pastries made by Santo's mom! And Santo! Only the weather resists him: available and ready to do the impossible to give this stop a taste of paradise. Stop by!

Our host, Santos, was very friendly and helpful. He gave us plenty of tips to travel and visit Sicily. Despite that accessing the Bed and Breakfast was not too easy (Holy week in Sicily and plenty of traffic) he helped us and was always available to help. We will recommend his bed and breakfast to people who want to visit this beautiful country.

B&B very well located to explore the area, Etna, Catania, Taormina. Very quiet room overlooking a private inner terrace. The breakfast is very rich and delicious with homemade cakes. But the great plus of this establishment is Santo, the owner who lives on site. Warm, available, very friendly, good advice, a welcome that we would like to have in all B&Bs. Recommended without hesitation.

If you want to pamper yourself during a trip to Sicily, a stop in Aci Trezza and at B&B Epos is a must. The structure is in the center, very clean, tidy, and welcoming. What really makes the difference, however, is the unparalleled hospitality of Santo. Extremely kind, super helpful, and truly caring towards guests, making them feel immediately welcomed as if they were at home. The breakfast is something sublime. A wide variety of sweet and savory options, and you absolutely must try his sweets: tarts, pound cakes, soft cakes, muffins, there is something for every taste. It's a shame we only stayed for two days. When a job is done with the head and heart, it shows and is felt. Great Santo. The best stay ever that we will remember with affection and a hint of nostalgia.

The B&B Epos is perfect. On a slightly overwhelming street on the way out, but everything else is perfect. Santos is lovely. The breakfasts are spectacular with homemade cakes made by himself. And inside the B&B is a true oasis. And in the end, even though the village is nothing special, it's a good base to go to the east area and there are many places to eat good fish.

Owner always available for information and any need. The structure is very well maintained and the room cleaning, I would dare to say perfect. Abundant breakfast. I highly recommend this property.

We stayed 7 nights, upon our arrival we were very well received despite the late hour (23 h). The room is spacious and the bed is very comfortable. In the morning, breakfast in the courtyard was very pleasant and very plentiful. Santo is very discreet and at the same time very available, he gives excellent advice for our stay. We chose this establishment after reading the reviews on the internet and we were not disappointed. Highly recommend without hesitation. Thank you again Santo for your welcome and all the advice you gave us. Gisèle and Manu.

Thank you Santo for the wonderful vacation. Your B&B Epos is very close to the sea, in a well-connected area also to visit Catania, Acireale and the other beautiful nearby locations. The rooms are beautiful and spotless, my girlfriend and I stayed in the Nausicaa room where we slept very well, in total tranquility. The breakfast, served in a splendid internal garden, was really abundant and always different, characterized by delicious homemade pastries. But above all, thank you for your extraordinary kindness and hospitality. You are always available for any information and any need, making travelers feel like part of your family. Beautiful experience.

The breakfast was plentiful with different local specialties every morning. We highly recommend it! Thank you Santo, you are truly special!
