The beach was amazing, staff was friendly and provided great service. Food and drink was great and so were the servers and bar tenders. Need to invest in better Wifi, barely worked half the time! Other than that is was nice!

Great stay. Quiet small hotel feel on beach. A short shuttle ride to town. Best of both worlds only exception I heard was no irons in room. We did not need but in case you go formal. You may want to bring a small travel one

Lovely hotel, great pool but not accessible for elderly. Lovely staff. Very good free bus service into Taormina which is helpful as there isn’t a lot of restaurants easily accessible from the hotel (other than the hotel restaurant).

The staff are super nice. Property is nice, not in the center of the action which is what we liked. Its real easy if you have a car to use as a home base. We originally booked if for only 2 nights and ended up staying for 4. Breakfast is nice. The beach is rocky so dont expect to be doing the backstroke there. Pool is very nice as well. For some reason the elevators and the bathrooms have a funky smell. No idea what or why. But all in all, would without hesitation go back there. Front desk staff couldnt be nicer.
