| Area info. |
The hotel is located on the north coast of Salina, the second largest island in the Aeolian archipelago after Lipari. The island of Stromboli is visible on a clear day, including the volcanic eruptions at night time. Salina took its name from the now disused salt mines at Lingua but was previously named Didyme (meaning twins) due to its distinctive two hump profile caused by the now extinct volcanic cones.
Famous for its grapes and capers, Salina is now a UNESCO World Hertigage site. It is a quiet island, rich in greenery and hosts the highest point of the archipelago, with Monte Fossa delle Felci towering in at almost 1000 meters above sea level, next to its twin Monte dei Porri. The cultivated fields are fed by natural springs of fresh water which allow the marvelous Malvasia grapes to grow as well as capers and cacti.
The island has a total of seven small towns, but the three main towns are Santa Marina (10 mins from the hotel), Malfa where the hotel is situated and Rinella (15 mins from the hotel) which offers an excellent choice of restaurants. Salina also has a bus service that enables guests to explore the whole island or alternatively scooters and bikes are available to rent. The bay of Pollara which was made famous by the film ‘Il Postino’, are situated on the west coast and is well worth visiting.
There are several options for travelling to and from the Aeolian Islands. Ferries and hydrofoils run from Milazzo to all of the Islands, but please refer to the ’Travel Info’ - Ferry section of the website for further information regarding travel to the Aeolian. For those flying to Catania, it is possible to take a taxi from the airport to Milazzo and then catch the hydrofoil or ferry. There is also a train service between Palermo and Milazzo. During Peak Season (June – September) there is also a regular hydrofoil direct to the Aeolian Islands from Naples and Palermo.
