And an ideal place for those who enjoy peace and quiet of the city center, but it can reach in a few minutes.

The presence of the pool makes it even more relaxing stay at the B&B Il Girasole Capo d'Orlando.

Family-friendly environment, clean, and very helpful manager. The pool is pleasant and well-organized. The location is a bit off-center from the urban center, which is reachable with a few minutes by car; in return, it's a quiet place without noise. The sea is close by with a long beach also reachable with a few minutes by car.

I rated low due to the breakfast, as there is no specified time for it. Moreover, I paid twice for breakfast and couldn't have it.

The answer from the host:
Buongiorno, mi dispiace contraddirla quando afferma che non c'è orario per fare la colazione. L'affermazione è intrinsecamente falsa perché le è stato comunicato che la colazione veniva servita dalle 08:30 alle 10:30. Come se ciò non bastasse, in ogni camera è appeso un quadretto in cui sono riportate una serie di informazioni utili durante il soggiorno, compreso l'orario in cui viene servita la colazione. D'altronde la prima colazione in tutto il mondo viene servita la mattina. Semplicemente lei la mattina è uscito dalla camera alle 07:30, quindi prima che venisse servita, ma bastava dirlo e le avremmo restituito i soldi, oppure l'avremmo indirizzata in un bar ed avremmo pagato noi. Bastava parlare.

The cost does not meet the total quality of the service. The room was hot and I believe the air conditioner was empty. The room also did not have a window except for a small skylight. Unfortunately, breakfast (included) was served from 8:15, while we were leaving earlier.

Cozy, tidy, and very clean structure. Very functional, well-maintained, and with really comfortable beds. Unfortunately, since the window lacks shutters, the light woke us up very early. Monica, the owner, was very kind, nice, and helpful. Breakfast was average. B&B definitely recommendable!

Beautiful structure immersed in the local countryside from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of the mountains and a few steps from the beach. Very clean structure, comfortable and fragrant rooms, well-kept and equipped swimming pool. Excellent breakfast. The owners are very helpful and kind. Great for a relaxing holiday, an experience to be repeated and recommended.

I stayed with my family the first week of August and we had a great time. Mrs. Monica and then her husband were really kind and welcoming. The B&B is a new, clean structure and ideal for families with children, because it is quiet, away from the chaos, and there is also a pool that attracts children. Furthermore, Capo D'Orlando is a 5-minute drive away.\n\nTo keep in mind for next summer!\nThank you Monica. See you soon.\n\nAngela (Florence).

Modern structure with a mix of friendliness, kindness, and meticulous cleanliness. Good breakfast, sea a few steps away, and for those who want more relaxation, there is a well-kept pool equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas and a corner with armchairs and a small table. Recommended to visit again.

I have visited several Bed and Breakfasts in Sicily, but this one made me not envy 5-star hotels. Perfect cleanliness, almost maniacal, availability and kindness of the managers Monica, Fernando and Enza, typical breakfast with local cakes, abundant, good sleep, fridge available in the breakfast kitchen area, fragrant rooms, spacious showers, air conditioners everywhere, completely new structure. Pool available. Free private parking, I can't find any flaws. Congratulations.

If you want to relax, just as they say maximum relaxation, this is the right place. Quiet area, wonderful pool always very clean. You will feel as if it were your home. The managers are very kind and helpful, and always attentive to the cleanliness of the B&B in all areas: pools, rooms, bathrooms, breakfast area, everywhere. The breakfast is good and plentiful, I would say it is worth it. As soon as I can, I will return.

The stay in this B&B was practically perfect. The structure and the rooms, which have nothing to envy to even multi-starred hotels, and above all the courtesy and availability of Monica and Enzo, the managers, make the vacation very pleasant. The advice of Enzo and Monica to appreciate this area of Sicily turned out to be precious. Furthermore, this B&B is in a strategically perfect position for visiting this portion of Northern Sicily, including the Aeolian Islands.
