Antico Casale degli Ulivi In Avola

We spent 4 nights at the farmhouse during our Sicilian holidays. The property is located slightly inland near Fontane Bianche but has access to the sea on foot. Welcoming and simple environment. The rooms are above the restaurant so you can hear when there are parties but for us it was absolutely not a problem, as the rooms are air conditioned so by closing the windows you can isolate yourself well. Breakfast complete with fresh products Welcoming and helpful staff. I would go back

Fantastic experience.. top room, beautiful illuminated garden.. friendliness and professionalism, rating 10..

We stayed at the property for 7 nights. The room was small but comfortable, always clean and equipped with air conditioning. Too bad about the mattress/topper, too low and soft for our tastes. Extremely friendly staff, both for breakfast and dinner. We had dinner at the restaurant twice, always enjoying excellent food (both pizza, restaurant, and fresh fish from the Captain!) Strategic location just outside the Avola exit. Highly recommended!

Fascinating location, experience that could be improved in the details. We went to this place for an evening with friends, intrigued by the truly scenic setting: an old farmhouse surrounded by greenery, with a large and very suggestive outdoor area, illuminated by a network of suspended lights that make the atmosphere welcoming and a little magical. The menu is quite varied: classic pizzas, some gourmet options and first and second courses that range between land and sea. The menu also includes preparations with quality ingredients such as Bronte pistachio, sea urchins and red prawns. Prices are average for the area, while the most important courses reach 20-25 euros. The wine list, although limited to a handful of labels, offers some interesting Sicilian wineries, with bottles ranging from 18 to 40 euros approximately. The choice of beers, however, is more limited and the one we tried (a Poretti on tap) was not very pleasant for the period (June) as it was not "nicely cold", and then almost completely flat and with a rather anonymous taste. We ordered pizzas: the cooking and the dough were decent (perhaps it was a little too much in the oven for my taste), high and fragrant edges (even if slightly overcooked), but the base in my opinion was a little too thin. The buffalo mozzarella in the center of the pizza looked more like a morsel and was devoid of the classic whey that comes out when cut. (in the photo a Diavola with added Gorgonzola and onion). What negatively affected the culinary experience was the quality of the cutlery: extremely thin, light and impractical, with a fork that easily bent during use and a knife that could not cut (a detestable thing, when you go to eat pizza at a restaurant, is having a knife that does not fulfill its function). The service was unfortunately the weakest point. The dining room staff, mostly made up of older people, were willing, but also a bit confused, awkward and clumsy. On several occasions we happened to be inadvertently touched while the dishes were being served or collected, and the gestures were often hasty, with plates placed on the table in a rather brusque manner. They were never rude, but the whole thing conveyed a feeling of improvisation, despite the place being almost empty (Tuesday evening) compared to the number of seats. We also waited over an hour to receive the pizzas, and only after two reminders we were told - in a very brusque tone - that the order had been "taken out of our mind", probably forgotten. In short: a truly beautiful location and a menu that arouses curiosity, but what made the negative difference were the messy service, the quality of the cutlery and some details that, if taken care of better, would significantly improve the overall experience. P.S. As things stand (today 11/6/25) I would advise against draft beer.

Very good food, delicious pizza, aperol

I can only judge for the pizza, especially the Il Casale is good. Beautiful setting. Inside it is poorly soundproofed if there are noisy tables ...

A very nice restaurant with a wonderful ambiance. All of our dishes were delicious and the service was excellent.

I recently celebrated my daughter's confirmation, I am normally a regular customer, and I was even happier than usual. The quality is at good levels with peaks of excellence and the service has always been attentive to satisfy my every request. Thank you and see you soon.

Struttura molto bella e in mezzo al verde,la nostra camera era posizionate sul ristorante e tutto il chiasso e rumori sembrano in camera,come ristorazione la pizza è buona ma c’è di meglio. Vi consiglio di chiedere una camera che non sia vicino alle cucine del ristorante.
