hehe,some of these answers are amusing. I am Italian..so here it goes: Ciao is a friendly way of saying Hi or Bye , it is very much used either when you re meeting someone for the first time, or just leaving some friends to be back 5 minutes later. There is not an english translation, it means it all, from -nice to meet you- to-I'll be right back- or.see ya next year. Note: you never address a person in authorithy with Ciao, its very much a buddies-term.
Bella literally means beautiful, referred to a female thing or individual ( things have a gender in Italian, Una bella macchina= a pretty car). The espression 'ciao bella' has most of the times a very light ,carefree flirting hint, the sense of it is very much like -hey baby- or even -hey cutie- .If a girl is addressed with a -ciao bella- by a guy she doesnt know, the flirting hint is intended to be stressed, it always means -hello hottie- or something like that.
It is very much a compliment.
Its all, Ciao. ( Or...Ciao bella? hahaha)

Ciao means hello or goodbye, and bella means beautiful.

Ciao, pronounced "chow", means 'hello' in Italian. "Bella" means 'beautiful', so saying "Ciao Bella' is basically saying 'hello beautiful'. We don't have anything like it in the US, but it's a wonderful thing to say to your girlfriend. ("bello' is for men)
