    stunning, stunning, stunning

    The breathtaking views of the iconic 'Faraglioni' rock formations were nothing short of magical, creating an unforgettable backdrop for our stay. Dining on the private terrace with panoramic views elevated our evenings, especially during sunset while enjoying delightful local cocktails. The gelato bar in the lobby served exquisite flavors that truly captured the essence of Sicily, ensuring our taste buds were pampered every day.

    100% recommend 😊❤️

    stunning views
    fresh pastries
    noise disturbance

    The views here were just stunning, especially from our balcony overlooking the Cyclops. The breakfast spread was mighty with fresh Sicilian pastries. A downside was the noise from the nearby bar, making it a bit hard to sleep at night.

    A Memorable Stay with Stunning Views and Impeccable Service

    We spent four nights in a beautiful Superior Double room, enjoying breathtaking views of the Faraglioli. The pool area was perfect for relaxing with an Aperol Spritz. The restaurant's sunsets and delicious Bernese Fries made our dining experience truly special. A tip , explore nearby beaches during the day.

    amazing dining
    ocean view terrace
    missing balcony
    limited breakfast options

    The Bernese Fries at the hotel bar were to die for! We had fantastic dinners on the terrace with stunning ocean views and live music. our room was lovely with ample space and a great bathroom.

    Although I requested a double with a balcony, I got a triple without one. We tried to dine outside at the restaurant, but it was a no-go, even with empty seats around. The hotel is a bit far from the center, making taxi finds tricky, and my last in-room breakfast was just okay, but overall, it didn't dim the sparkle.

    The hotel lies in the heart of Acitrezza, an ancient fishing village, offering stunning sea views and convenient access to local attractions. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast with fresh Sicilian pastries, and the kids loved exploring the nearby beaches. The staff was friendly.

    My children wished there was a swimming pool.

    great value

    It was just a strong match for a couple of nights in Aci Trezza with great value for money. The staff arranged a taxi for us promptly when we asked, which saved us a lot of hassle. Make sure to check out the breakfast next door. it has a lovely sea view.
