Our stay at B&B La Veduta in Scilla was nothing short of exceptional. The balcony views are truly breathtaking—you feel so close to the water that the sea takes on a luminous emerald clarity. Falling asleep to the gentle sound of waves lapping just below the balcony was an unforgettable experience.
Scilla itself is enchanting, especially the Chianalea district, with its charming waterfront restaurants and relaxed, unhurried atmosphere. Yet the true highlight of our stay was the warm hospitality of Antonio and his mother, Signora Nella. They made us feel less like guests and more like family. Antonio was incredibly attentive, assisting with luggage, logistics, and thoughtful restaurant recommendations. Each morning, Nella prepared a generous breakfast in the sea-facing dining room, featuring fresh homemade cakes, eggs, and excellent coffee—an absolute delight.
The rooms and bathrooms are modern, spacious, and beautifully appointed, ensuring a stay that is both comfortable and refined. We left already looking forward to our return. Without question, La Veduta is the finest place to stay in Scilla.

Beautiful views from our balcony situated literally above the edge of the water; lulled to sleep every night by the sound of lapping waves; incredible breakfasts; but the best aspect was Antonio’s exceptional hospitality!
Summary: Increíble stay in a picturesque seaside village!

Wow is that word!!! Antonio and his mom Nella were fabulous, so warm, the kindness that they showed us was so so nice, it was great getting to know them.
The B&B is right on water, the views incredible. The breakfast everyday was amazing, the cakes/pastries, and fresh coffee, what can one say except incredible.
Antonio picked up at the train station, dropped us off in ferry to Messina, just because. Give them an above 10 if we could. Highly highly recommend!!!
Summary: Wow!!! Amazing!!! Great hosts!!! Scilla should on your list and this B&B, felt right home with Nella!!

Our stay at La Veruta was a highlight of our vacation. Antonio was welcoming, kind and went out of his way for us and other guests.
The breakfast was outstanding- omelettes, pastries, fresh fruit, espresso and more.
The property is right on the water and the sound of the sea plays in the background all day and all night.
Walking distance to restaurants and the beach
Negative:
I liked everything, but there are steep stairs in the property (no elevator), it will be difficult for anyone with mobility problems. Nothing unusual in Italy, but worth pointing out

One of the best experiences in Italy we have had so far. Property is run by family Antonio who is a face of the property and Nella who is “gray cardinal” ❤️ of it and who takes care of the all delicious food you get for breakfast 😊 just a warning… if you think of not having breakfast, notify hosts that you won’t have one, for Nella not to wait and prepare for you. Need recommendations for a good restaurant for dinner, ask Antonio and you will get a reservation… Places he suggests are amazing. Honestly there is so much to say from our 3 nights stay, I could write here an essay… if Booking.com would allow ratings above 10, would give 20!!! Also worth to mention, Scilla and part of it where B&B is located, is so chill and nice. Imagine, if you dine in a restaurant one night and next morning you are greated by that restaurant owner (our guess) when he sees you… And yeah, Antonio’s motto is “don’t worry” and he delivered it to max!
Pay attention, you have private bathroom, but you will have to exit your bedroom to get to it. Bathroom is on the same floor, just need to cross narrow stair case. Bathrobes are provided for this.
Summary: Scilla & B&B la Veduta = Chill to max!
