“A beautiful place that we’d happily return to!”
We had such a wonderful stay here. The location is absolutely stunning, with incredible views out to the islands, especially at sunset. The aperitivo was a lovely touch, and the whole atmosphere was peaceful and truly special. The family-run warmth really came through – our hosts couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful. The room itself was modest but had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxed stay. A beautiful place that we’d happily return to!

“We had such a wonderful stay. Beautiful location, stunning scenery and amazing sunsets.”
Everything was magical. The most peaceful and atmospheric scenery. great rooms, comfortable beds, very clean, incredible restaurant (food was delicious!). We were lucky enough to extend our stay here by 1x more day and so glad that we did. I cannot recommend enough, staying at the Hotel La Locanda Del Postino. Everything is perfect. With the most incredible sunsets every night, it felt like being in a film. Salina was our favourite Island, such a stunning place - which says a lot, as all of the Aeolian islands that we stayed on were gorgeous.

The hotel is owned and managed by a family and you feel at home from the very first moment. The attention to the details and friendliness from every staff member was exceptional. Our special thanks to the chef for the excellent dishes and creativity. Having a catch of the day as a dinner with the view of the sunset accompanied by Malvazia wine from Salina will stay in my heart forever. Hope to return soon!

Francesco runs a beautiful hotel and the food was excellent too, cocktails over the sunset from the garden, friendly conversation with the staff and other guests. I was lucky to arrive at the time of the festival of the village Saint Onophreus. The night here was a highlight of Salina.

“Best part of our Sicily trip 🙂”
Due to a cancelled ferry, we arrived in the middle of the night (02:00) but Francesco stayed up to wait for us. Staff went out of their way to accommodate our needs and created a relaxed atmosphere in which to enjoy food, drinks and sunsets.

Beautiful historic house lovingly restored. I loved my room with its high ceilings, beautiful drapes and antique tiles not to mention wonderful lingering fresh scent on the air. Set in lush green gardens with panoramic views - what's not to like. Delightful staff. I'd love to stay again.

The views to catch the sunset from the hotel are the best ones in town, the place is very romantic, peaceful and beautifully designed. Super friendly staff, very welcoming and made us feel comfortable. The quality of the food made with local ingredients was delicious and the breakfast and dinner are totally worth it. Highly recommended place, one of the highlights of our trip to Sicily!!

Staying in this charming family owned hotel was definitely the highlight of my 3 weeks in Sicily! The family who run the hotel was really helpful and gave me good tips what to do on the island, they made me feel very comfortable, they even let me stay one extra night after closing the hotel. My room was really clean, nicely decorated and had a stunning seaview with views to Filicudi Alicudi. From the terazza you could enjoy the sunset every evening while sipping your aperitivo. Breakfast was great and filling. Pollara as a location is a really small place with not much services (I think my hotel was the only one operating there during my stay and it was closing as well for the winter). I was also travelling during the low season, so I don't how it is during the hight season. But I didn't really mind the lack of services because this kind of peaceful and authentic place away from tourist massed was something I was looking for. Also there was amazing restaurant at the hotel that was visited by people from other parts of the island as well, so I was not left hungry! Also there's minibus going quite frequently to other villages on the island where there are supermarket, some restaurants and farmacy etc. but renting a moped or a car would definitely give you more freedom. Famous and beautiful pollara beach is at 15 min walking distance. All in all I enjoyed a lot and left the place with wistful feelings. Grazie mille!

“A friendly and personal small hotel, in a beauty spot in the middle of nowhere”
We enjoyed a very pleasant stay at the Locanda. It is run by one family, and they were all very helpful and made the overall experience very personal. The breakfast and dinner were of exceptional quality, and having your dinner at sunset on the outdoor terrace with great views to neighboring island Filicudi was magical.
