Il Gelso Vacanze  

On Salina Island’s Punta Scario, a short stroll from Malfa and about 200 m from Punta Scario beach. This family-run bed and breakfast sits in the Aeolian Islands, part of the UNESCO-listed archipelago. Pet-friendly and sea-view rooms put you minutes from the little fishing port and local life.

Set in a lovingly restored Aeolian manor, the property keeps classic local character—stone seats, bougainvillea-draped pergolas and a bower terrace (bagghiu). Six standard rooms open onto private terraces with hammocks and most offer sea views. Rooms come with a mini bar, hairdryer, ceiling fan and air conditioning for comfy, simple stays.

Start mornings on the panoramic terrace and wake up to sea-breeze mornings. On-site highlights include a diving club, a tour assistance desk, a lobby bar with satellite TV, private car park and free Wi‑Fi in common areas. Staff can arrange transfers; laundry, car rental and a safe-deposit box are also available.

Free Wi‑Fi in the common areas and an unattended private car park. Staff help with transfer arrangements and local logistics.

Breakfast is an extensive buffet served on the terrace with panoramic views and can be brought to your room on request. Reviews praise the breakfast as a standout start to the day.
