Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Avola

What a pleasure to have stayed in Diego‘s wonderful and peaceful home surrounded by such a lovely neighbourhood. We loved the rustic flair of the place and appreciated the materials/elements/shapes/colours Diego embedded into this lovely cave. You can tell that Diego has a good eye for things. Diego is also an excellent host and gave us tips for hikes to particularly beautiful places and more. Since we visited lovely Scicli during Mai/June and experienced the garden in full bloom, it was such a soothing oasis - the special gem. The shower space, design and experience is incredible and comes with a view to the sky. It's the big little things that make it so special: the tableware in the kitchen, pictures placed, furniture telling stories from the past and the wonderful places created. The floor in the ground was so very special for us, since the kitchen floor merges into the stone. If someone happens to have the same preference, it’s highly recommended to walk the floor barefoote

The flat is connected to main house but it has its own entry. We spent there only one night, but flat was comfy and clean. It has an interesting design but in good way. We had inside parking. The owners are very kind.

Our stay at Salvatore’s place was absolutely perfect. It’s one of the best Airbnbs I’ve stayed at in all of Italy, and definitely the best one in Sicily. It’s beautiful, well-equipped, and incredibly well-located. There’s parking just a 3-minute walk away and plenty of food options nearby. It’s close to all the main attractions, and Salvatore communicates very well. I’ll definitely be back!

Giuliana was a wonderful host – warm, welcoming, and always discreet. Her beautiful Shanti is a truly special place: the house is stunning, peaceful, and the pool adds a magical touch. We felt at home from the very first moment. Giuliana was always available with helpful suggestions and made our stay in Sicily even more enjoyable. Her kindness and care made a real difference. This has been a holiday we will always remember with joy. Thank you, Giuliana, from all of us – we hope to return soon to this little oasis of peace.

Really lovely apartment, newly renovated, spotlessly clean and equipped with everything for a comfortable stay, including a nice terrace. Walkable to the centre of Avola and close to beaches. Handy supermarket just round the corner. Ester & Seby are really friendly hosts and available to give good tips about the local area. On arrival there was water and other refreshments available and the nice touch of some Sicilian sweet treats & a souvenir fridge magnet! Would definitely recommend this accommodation and wouldn’t hesitate to return if I was visiting Avola again 😀

We stayed at Elisa’s place for 3 days and were really happy there. The house is close to the sea (approx. 2 minutes down the road) and you can hear the waves at night. The interior was nicely designed, the kitchen well equipped. The direct neighbors were often gone during the day, so it wasn’t too loud. One must be aware that the walls are very thin, so you will probably hear the neighbors. If we ever come back to Sicily we would definitely stay with Elisa again - thank you very much.

This place is an experience! Living in the old farm high in the mountains, far away from noise and rush. Me and my husband enjoyed the stay a lot! We were visiting nearby towns and beaches, which are easy to reach from Vincenzo’s place. vincenzo himself is super friendly, helpful and attentive - it was a pleasure to get to know him! We would definately recommend this stay to get an amazing experience of life in a Sicilian countryside. We really hope to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at Roberto’s place. If you’re looking for a quiet spot that’s still close to some of the island’s main attractions, this villa is a perfect choice. Lucky and the lady were incredibly helpful and friendly—it truly felt like home. Thank you!

This is a beautiful apartment with an upstairs patio that is very well equipped. You are situated right on the marina on Ortigia with sunset views over the bay. The inside living space (kitchen/living room) of the apartment is small but very thought out and functional. Bedroom is large as is the Bath and very comfortable bedding. Outside the apartment people do sometimes congregate on the marina but with the windows closed it was not bothersome at all. All of the necessities are provided including coffee/salt/pepper/oil. You are just steps from some groceries and tons of places to eat. Even the upstairs deck has a sink and wine/beverage fridge. She even has some mosquito coils up there to keep the bugs away. Minor thoughts for travelers - The stairs up to the patio are a little narrow and steep. - shade on the patio diminishes as it gets past 1400-1500 - US issue - the plumbing is not made for TP so have to use a can. We had a great stay and highly recommend. Thanks, C

Salvatore is a great host in his apartment is in a wonderful location, walking distance to everything. His recommendations for pizza, restaurants and a granita are perfect. The view from the balcony is wonderful, it is protected from the sun and the rain so perfect on a hot day or a rainy day. The bed is comfortable and the apartment is a nice studio. The parking garage on the other end of the island is only 15 minutes away so this whole area is a cute concentrated and small beauty. Because you are in the middle of it all so it might be a bit loud, especially on weekends nights until the time the places serving alcohol close. Nothing earplugs and a white noise app can’t fix. I would stay here again absolutely. Thank you Salvatore!!

We had the most beautiful time at this beach house and hope to come again one day! You can hear the sound of the ocean all the time, the interior is cosy and everything you need in the kitchen is there. The communication with Francesco was perfect. It‘s a gem.

We had the most fantastic stay - incredible to be overlooking the market. We went everyday and cooked our wares in the lovely kitchen. Apartment is beautifully designed and loved the wine cellar - an unexpected bonus. Double glazing is also excellent- the calls of the market are so atmospheric, but when you don’t want to hear them, you can just shut the windows. Great situation in Ortigia. Responsive check in and support during our stay.

Everything about our stay here was wonderful. Francesco is the ultimate host - he has thought of everything to make his guests as comfortable as possible. We were welcomed with beautiful food, wine, a gift, and a plentiful supply of bottled water - very generous. We loved the apartment and made the most of the two beautiful terraces. We loved exploring Noto and the apartment was in a great location for this. This apartment certainly deserves all the positive reviews. If you can't manage stairs, this is not the place for you. But if you can - book it!

What a beautiful home! We loved being walking distance from Avola’s main square while also having easy parking access right at home, an uncommon luxury at some of our other stops in Sicily. Marcella was terrific from the beginning, giving us a tour of the place with her daughter and providing wonderful suggestions. Cavagrande was stunning, and we absolutely loved it! We both run, so we enjoyed running along the promenade overlooking the sea in the morning. The house was equipped with everything we needed for laundry, had shampoo and conditioner, provided water, and even had some past in the cabinet that we enjoyed cooking on an evening at home. The home was also a terrific home for a day trip to Modica and Ragusa and is close enough to go to Noto even if you just want to go for a morning or a quick dinner. We had a terrific visit, thank you Marcella!

Sabrina was helpful and friendly — she greeted us upon arrival to show us the place and gave us great recommendations for Noto. the place was tastefully decorated, spacious, and overall a lovely stay with everything we could need. would definitely recommend!

We had a great time in our apartment. Parking below & very quiet despite being in the middle of the city, perfect simple accommodation to stay overnight & enjoy. We loved the bikes that we got to borrow for free. The apartment had most things, the only thing we missed in the kitchen was a proper knife as there was none, which makes it difficult to cook something that needs a knife to cut. But otherwise the location, the welcome and the apartment were super! :)

Great place to stay. Really close to the main attractions.

A Naca Sopra was a charming apartment right at the top of the stairs to Ragusa Ibla. The surprise roof top view was gorgeous and private; we lived it so much we made our own dinner and had a stunning view of Ragusa and the surrounding countryside. The apartment was spacious and neat, full of beautiful objets d’arts. We were also treated to some local fruit, which was a treat. Giancarlo was a fantastic host and provided lots of tips for local dining. A wonderful place to stay.

great apartment and being away for several weeks with a bit of luggage, appreciated the ground floor well appointed, comfortable and clean. Christiana was extremely responsive as well

They say perfect is impossible. Here Maria, the host, has achieved the impossible. The Airbnb is absolutely beautiful and incredibly clean. The view from the balcony was beautiful as well, we had a great time relaxing and looking out at the boats. Maria was incredibly hospitable, with a flexible check in and also providing information on the area. Thank you for the wonderful and unforgettable stay!

Such a lovely host. She gave us so many recommendations and was just super friendly! You can tell the host put their heart into the house and the experience, because there are so many thoughtful details that just make your stay so much more pleasant. Would definitely recommend staying here.

My partner and I stayed at Cristina’s place for 3 nights in the first part of our Sicily holiday. The apartment was peaceful, clean and quiet with everything you need. The courtyard area was great for some fresh air and eating breakfast. Pleasantly surprised at how much bigger the space was in person- plenty of room. The walk to Ortigia was around 10 minutes and was fine to do if you do not have any mobility issues. The apartment is in a residential area so short walk to some local shops/bakeries. Cristina is a wonderful host who replied very quickly and readily provided information. Thank you again Cristina :)

Rosa could not have done more to make our stay enjoyable. Very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any queries we had. We haven't given 5 stars for the location only because there is a redevelopment of the promenade at the moment in front of the apartment which is not active at the moment, but will take time to complete. It did not disturb us at all but not the best immediate view. Only 10-15 minutes walk to the centre of Ortiga more than compensates for that temporary aspect.

Amazing place close to everything we needed. Apartment was super clean with everything you could need in there. Host super helpful and responsive to messages. A+++++++++
