    After confirming the reservation, we received a detailed e-mail from the accommodation. These information were delicate services that no hotel had The accommodation has a terrace with a burst ocean view, so we can see Panarea and Stromboli. Our room is very clean as a suit room, and furniture and bedding are arranged making the most of the space. As soon as we arrived, the owner was served a self baked cake and coffee, and we received meticulous service. With her help, we were able to use a rental car to visit the nearby Pollara. We were also able to enjoy a wealth of breakfast, including homemade bread and fresh juice. I want to rate it as the best accommodation for this trip. Once again, we would like to thank Giuliana, the owner of the accommodation.

    Stunning view,beautiful bedroom and great breakfast. Salina is like heaven on earth. We came from Taormina which is over populated and oppressive. Malfa was such a contrast. The restaurants are great in Malfa. I think a Alera has the best views around. The staff were super nice. I loved it all!!!

    Nothing - it was great

    The property is beautiful, very clean and the room is very modern but with a wonderful traditional touch. We stayed in a room which opened onto the shared terrance which has absolutely stunning views, where you can sit and enjoy the sunset. There is also a lower terrace next to the breakfast area with lots of seating and can be enjoyed by all. The room has many windows and was great to wake up to stunning views in the morning. The room has a mini bar which is restocked daily which was great also. Breakfast was very nice and served on the lower terrance which was a fantastic way to start your day. Location wise, the property is within 5 minutes walk to the Spaiggia cello Scario beach and around 10 to the town centre of Malfa. You can also easily walk to the small port, which is handy is you are doing a day boat trip to the other other islands as some of the tour companies do stop her. Overall I would highly recommend.

    Nothing 😊

    Everything! the host - super easy to communicate with, organized a taxi for us for our ferries and gave us a discount on her family-run restaurant in Malfa which was delicious! The rooms were a great size, cleaned every day (including topping up the minibar). The location - 2 mins to Malfa square and 4 mins to closest beach (all walking). We were also recommended by the host a Salina boat trip which was 30 euro per person for a 3 hour trip around the island including stop offs for beautiful swims. Breakfast was also fabulous. Will hopefully be back again!!

    A Alera is a very modern and clean facility which is located in the beautiful town of Malfa and has an incredible views from both the public spaces and, in our case, our room. Breakfasts are excellent. Staff bent over backwards to not only make our stay excellent, but to share personal stories and thoughts that really made us feel at home. Whenever we asked about activities, car rentals, details about traveling on the island they were really helpful. Additionally there are some really fun restaurants within walking distance (including one which featured the very best meal we got in our two weeks in Sicily). If you have a chance, a visit to the local vineyard (which was arranged by A Alera), is a blast! Thanks to all for the great time we had!

    Maybe slightly more available for breakfast, to be fair, we came down close to the end of the breakfast slot but unfortunately most things had run out, it was disappointing because it so delicious.

    Beautiful location and owners. The facilities were lovely. It had a lovely homely feel. In particular the owner is so lovely, she was so friendly and accommodating.

    We stayed in the Junior Suite at A Alera which gave us some nice extra space and a beautiful view. We loved this small property and Giuliana, the owner, went above and beyond helping us with ferry and taxi transportation, and information about the island. The rooms were created out of their family home and such thoughtful touches: mini bar, robes, great shower, welcome gift, great hair dryer, drying rack for beach clothes, towels, etc. The place was immaculate and our daily room housekeeping lovely. It's a short walk to our favorite Salina beach, Scario, and a nice walk to town for dinner, catching the bus, etc. The uphill helped us work off all the pizza and pasta we ate. :-) They had some nice outdoor seating areas for guests, the breakfast was good with lots of fruit, pastries and typical Italian morning food and cappuccinos. Highly recommend, especially the Junior Suite.
