We loved staying in Avola. There is so much to see in the area and the beaches were wonderful. And Corrado, Martina's father gave us many excellent tips. The house is located outside town and close to the sea so was very quiet and peaceful. Early mornings, evenings and nites all we heard was the whistling of the birds and the sea rolling at the end of the road. Heaven! The garden was also lovely and we enjoyed sitting in the shade to eat lunch or enjoy a drink in the evening. The house itself is comfortable and interestingly decorated with old objects. The bed was firm but very comfortable, and the bathroom also fine with a good shower. The kitchen and living areas were rather dark which in the heat of the summer would feel cooling, but for April it was a little too dark for us. The living area lacked a couch to sit on in the evenings. The kitchen was quite spacious but lacked quite a few basic amenities.
