Pensione Aquilone

Stromboli


Convenience and a peaceful location come together at this cheerful, long-established guesthouse tucked away above Stromboli's main drag, just west of the hilltop church square. Guests love the sunny, flowery central garden patio and shared terraces with views to the volcano and Strombolicchio. Three rooms come with cosy cooking nooks; otherwise, friendly owners Adriano and Francesco – both Stromboli natives –provide breakfast.
