This hotel needs also some Tender Love: the first room they gave us had a mattress that looked like an elephant had just got up from there. Bathroom really outdated. They then transferred us in another triple room: I do not think this room is ok to host more than 2 people. It felt crammed, and in case of fire, I believe we would not have made it out. My friend said: it looks like a hospital room.. Well, when my son video called and I showed him the room he said: wow, it looks like a orphanage room... :-( Also, we were not informed that if we wanted to use the beach (private beach it said), we needed to pay.. OMG! What a rip off.. On a good note, the restaurant food was outstanding..

Sea Views

It was OK, nothing spectacular about this place but again nothing too bad. It was the end of the season, maybe everyone had had enough, the staff didn't really seem too interested and the breakfast was OK. Overall it just felt a bit mediocre. Average value for money.

Hotel is old and tired

Everything was Ok...just Ok. The pool was small but clean, you had to wear a cap. The beach was fine and quite private, but you were assigned beach chairs and there was definitely an honour system in place. The room was small and the mattress poor but typically Italian. The hotel was near nothing but a short drive to town. The parking situation was a little ugly. we got blocked in several times and had to wait 10 to 15 min.

Hotel accogliente con personale disponibile. Posizionato sul mare e dotato di piscina per bambini, ma piacevole anche per gli adulti. Struttura funzionale per persone con eventuali disabilità, grazie anche all’assistenza continua dei bagnini, sempre disponibili e attenti. Camera standard prenotata tramite expedia, comoda con balcone lato strada, ma bagno molto piccolo con doccia solo per persone “molto magre” e assenza di supporti per detergenti (ci si deve organizzare!). Nonostante un bel lungomare e la spiaggia molto ampia, la zona non offre attività di intrattenimento. Per tale motivo, un plauso speciale va allo Staff dell’animazione presente in Hotel, Federica, Francesca, Michele e Mario, che con gentilezza e simpatia riescono a coinvolgere tutti nelle loro attività, balli, giochi e sketch divertenti, rendendo piacevole la permanenza in hotel.

Personale molto gentile e disponibile. Ristorante ottimo con vista mare. Spaggia molto larga. Stanza pulitissima. Direttamente sul mare ma anche con piscina accogliente. Unica cosa non ottimale è stata la colazione un po' povera ma penso che migliorerà quando sarà possibile farla come buffet

Ottima struttura

La struttura è direttamente sul mare, sulla spiaggia di sabbia e piccoli sassi. La spiaggia è ampia, la struttura offre piscina, vasca idromassaggio e uso delle canoe gratuite. Ottima soluzione per visitare Tindari (santuario e i laghi di Marianello) e per le escursioni alle isole Eolie (Vulcano, Stromboli, Lipari). La camera ampia, dotata di vista mare e balconcino con sedie e tavolino. Ottima la pulizia. Possibilità di fare pranzo e cena a prezzo fisso.

Grazioso hotel, tv in camera antiquate e poco funzionali specialmente per ospiti anziani. Nella nostra camera mancavano i teli doccia e la pulizia del bagno poteva essere migliore. Colazione appena sufficiente nella varietà disponibile. Se il soggiorno è in offerta promozionale è ok, diversamente a quei prezzi in zona c'e' anche altro.
