We stayed at Elena's super cozy house for 5 days, 4 nights in total. Even if Avola itself is a very sleepy little town and not much to do / see, but it is very well situated near Noto, Siracusa, Augusta and the most beautiful natural resort with beaches and coastlines of gorgeous landscapes like "Marianelli", "Calamosche" and "Vendicari" which is definitely a must-see when you are in this area. So Elena's house is perfectly situated for a couple days of exploration in the south and east coast of Sicily. Elena herself is a super attentive host and was already there to help and replied within a couple minutes if we had a question. Her house is also over 2 stores, which makes it really feel like a home and not just a town apartment.
