'a Alera Room & Breakfast

Giuliana was an amazing host, helping us with ferry crossings to Salina, taxis, hire cars and local advice. A Alera is a stunning property with views of the sea from the lovely large balconies. The whole place was immaculate, breakfast was delicious especially her homemade cakes and jams. The rooms were beautifully decorated and had everything you'd expect and more, much more like a hotel than B&B. If you go be sure to visit Pollara for sunset and Papero for the ricotta granitas.

Proprietor Giuliana was very informative and helpful in making suggestions, arrangements, and bus schedule. Booked a deluxe double room which was small but had a shared balcony overlooking the sea. Location in Malfa was very good and we enjoyed our 3 day stay at the hotel and in Malfa. Rented a car for 1 day tour of the towns, took a boat tour (Salina Relax Boat) around the island, caper tour with Giuseppe and swam at Spiaggio dello Scario. We enjoyed the family restaurant, A Quadara, the food was delicious! Breakfast was continental and we enjoyed Giuliana's homemade bakery items.

Can only echo the other great reviews here. Immaculate B&B with dreamy views from the terraces. Booked direct on their website, very good value for money and they very kindly covered the cost of our arrival taxi from the port. Had a standard room - ours had no window except in the bathroom but the a/c temperature control worked very well as did everything in the room - first class. Loved waking up to the terrace flooded with morning sunlight. Breakfast is fine considering the price paid for the room and very good coffee. The owners gave us a 10% discount voucher for their restaurant in Malfa, A Quadara, which is well worth a visit.

An absolute dream of a B&B: beautiful house, fantastic rooms (very comfortable and clean), amazing views from the rooms as well as the various terraces (you can even see from your room small eruptions from Stromboli volcano at night). The wonderful staff was extremely friendly and warm, really making you feel at home as if staying with friends. Delicious breakfast served outside with magnificent sea views. Also worth mentioning is the excellent restaurant (5 minute walk from the B&B) owned by the same owners as the B&B; delicious meals; creative and with fresh ingredients only. If you love fresh seafood don't miss this place (also good veggie and meat options). Grazie mille, Guiliana and Paola !
