B&B Epos Acitrezza

B&B Epos Acitrezza is a bed and breakfast at Via Provinciale 262 in Aci Trezza, a seaside village in the 95026 postcode on the Ionian coast of Sicily, between Catania and Taormina. Aci Trezza is a small fishing village best known for the Isole dei Ciclopi, a cluster of basalt sea stacks just offshore that, in Homer's Odyssey, are the boulders hurled by the blinded Cyclops Polyphemus at Odysseus. The village also inspired the novelist Giovanni Verga's 1881 novel I Malavoglia, a landmark of Italian realist literature set among the local fishing families, and its harbour, piazza and seafront still hold a working-village character. The B&B stands a short walk from the sea, and the neighbouring town of Aci Castello, with its Norman castle built on a sea cliff of black lava, is a short distance south. Catania's Baroque centre lies roughly ten kilometres away and can be reached by bus, taxi or car, while Taormina is further north along the coast. The location suits visitors who want a quieter seaside base with fish restaurants, gelaterie and swimming spots on the rocks, rather than a city address. The B&B lists a double room, with breakfast and air conditioning as stated amenities. Breakfast is served on site, and the harbour area offers seafood restaurants, with local dishes such as fresh fish, sea urchin in season and granita in summer. No pool, spa or fitness room is advertised. Service follows the small B&B model, and the website bbepos.it carries further details; no phone number is recorded. Indicative prices run from about €60 to €120 per night, with strong demand in July and August. The property works for couples and independent travellers with a car or a willingness to use buses, wanting a coastal base for the Cyclops coast, Mount Etna and Catania.
