Sicilian respite
Our stay was very comfortable and relaxing. The property owner, Andrea, was very helpful and also very informative about Sicilian history and politics which we found very interesting. He also gave us assistance with our flight boarding passes and made sure we got to the airport on time when our original driver cancelled at the last minute. We were very grateful for his help. The room we had was in front with an ocean view and veranda, and it was very up to date with tasteful furnishings and décor. The air conditioning worked very well. The bathroom was small, but well appointed with everything in working order. The in room refrigerator was very handy. The only thing we missed was an English speaking channel on the TV.

Good location, fantastic service
My wife and I spent two nights in this bed and breakfast. The location is just perfect in the waterfront of Aci Castello and 20 minutes away from Catania airport. This accommodation offers a great price quality ratio. The kindness and helpful hints of the owner complete what has been a fantastic stay.

B&B enfrente del mar y con vistas al Castillo.
Fué una estancia de una sola noche pero muy positiva. Por motivos del horario del vuelo y de la posterior recogida del coche de alquiler, no pudimos llegar hasta las 10 de la noche y su propietario nos esperó y nos dió todo tipo de instrucciones para llegar y después cenar en un restaurante próximo. La habitación era grande y la cama cómoda. con parking en el propio recinto. El desayuno en el exterior con sombrillas, fué abundante y de calidad, y con atención personal de su propietario, muy amable y con una conversación culta e informativa de la historia de Sicilia.

Leuke eigenaar, mooie omgeving
Zoek je iets in de buurt van het centrum van Catania? Zoek dan verder. Dit ligt namelijk heerlijk rustig langs de kust, op een half uurtje met de bus van Catania. De kamer is van alle basale gemakken voorzien, en biedt uitzicht op de baai van Catania, aan de overkant van de straat. De eigenaar weet veel over de omgeving en is erg geïnteresseerd. Het ontbijt is erg goed en uitgebreid, je komt niets tekort. Kom je alleen voor het strand, kun je beter ergens anders zitten, want dit strand bestaat voornamelijk uit lavasteen. Dit ligt niet erg lekker en het is best een kunst om zonder valpartijen het water in te komen. Verder: Prima verblijf, mankeerde niks aan!

Schönes, ansprechendes B & B
Wir hatten ein schönes Doppelzimmer mit Blick auf das Meer. Frühstück war super und der Vermieter hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben, uns wertvolle Tipps zu vermitteln. Diese waren auch hilfreich denn Insider Tipps kann man immer gut gebrauchen! Am Abend wurde es dann leider etwas laut, da gegenüber die Promenade war und sich dort jeden Abend Jugendliche trafen. Zum Schlafen sind in der Hauptreisezeit Ohrenstöpsel zu empfehlen. Wir möchten aber betonen, das der Vermieter dafür nicht verantwortlich ist. Trotzdem ist diese B & B empfehlenswert!

Отдых в на романтичном берегу
Великолепно. Хотя окна спальни выходили на главную проезжую дорогу, это совсем не тревожило и позволяло выспаться. Андреа очень доброжелательный и приветливый хозяин и много делает для удобства гостей. На крыше отеля устроен просторный солярий, можно загорать в почти приватной обстановке. Огромная сосна даёт непроницаемую тень на балкон, где так приятно посидеть с бокалом вина от Андреа.

Amazing
Everything was amazing! The accomodation is well-located, spacious and familiar besides. The parkig area is enought and safe. The balcon and the sun deck is wonderfull. The room is okay, everything is there what is needed. We can collect only 2 small negative things: the cleaning woman could be a bit more accurate in the recesses (and not just the recesses) and the shower tray could be a bit more spacous. Mr. Andrea is a great, friendly, open minded and very helpful person. The breakfast is brillinat: rich, tasty and it is possible to eat not just sweet things but salty too (ham, chease) if you would like to. We always got as much toasts as we wanted and also not just jam but Nutella, extra cake or croissant, some joghurt, fruit salad, italian coffe or cappucino (as much as wanted :), some juice and so on... During the breakfast time we could talk to Andrea about everything what was interesting and we got extra and great, usefull ideas for destination of the day and also local map. We had a perfect time there we, we would like to come back once with our baby and friends. We advise this accomodation whole-heartedly!!!

Educational and enjoyable
We stayed one night at B&B Blue e il Castello and were welcomed in a personal way with a glass of almond milk by the owner Andrea, who, it turned out, was an expert on Sicilian history and gave us a real History lesson at breakfast! He was also very helpful with practical matters and recommendations. The place itself was scenic and the service impeccable!

Nahe Catania - guter Start für Sizilienrundreise
Wir haben nach unserer Landung am Airport Catania hier unsere Rundreise gestartet, wir waren mit allem sehr zufrieden- sehr freundlich und sehr zuvorkommend. die Gastgeberin. Bei der Verabschiedung sagte sie ein freundliches: Gute Reise, auf Wiedersehen und baldiges Wiederkommen. Genau das tun wir, vor unserer Abreise nach Deutschland wollen wir dort wieder zwei Übernachtungen buchen. Empfehlenswert das Restaurant in der gleichen Straße.

Ottima posizione sul lungomare in zona molto tranquilla; il proprietario mi ha assegnato la camera migliore e si è rivelato di una cortesia e di una simpatia non comuni, nonostante la nostra presenza solo a colazione e sera al rientro da escursioni.

Très sympa
Très bon accueil, le petit déjeuner est un délice avec des fruits frais des croissants et toujours le sourire de Andréa. Nous étions tellement bien que nous avons oublié des vêtements dans l'armoire de la chambre. Andréa sympatiquement nous a proposé de nous les expédier. C'est un pur délice de déjeuner dans le jardin, après une nuit bien tranquille. On se sent en sécurité chez lui.
