Hotels on first line in Sicily

Everything was perfect, location is amazing-sea view, there were not many people and it was silent. Beach is opposite the hotel, free sun bed is included. Parking space is also opposite the hotel

The menu is slightly limited (in a normal time I would take off a star). The room is clean and the view of the beach is to die for

Overall, the stay would be great if they provided the refund for the sunbeds that we purchased, even though we were assigned them with our rooms

And the beach stuff informed the receptionists, they just didn’t care about even trying

So so hotel. Expensive and not very good ristorante. But beach is excellent. Say hello to Antonio

We stayed at the time when Covid mainly kills livelihood. Nevertheless, the hotel managed beautifully. The reception staff are great, also the restaurant

If you are looking for a unique place to immerse yourself in nature with a crazy view you have arrived!!! Every room has a sea view A large swimming pool overlooking the cliff A sunset and a sunrise that reconcile you with the world I left my heart there…

Special thanks to the owner, a very kind person who made us completely happy. We will definitely return because here we found what we were looking for: peace, relaxation, a stunning view, nature, sun, sea, and a pool

The teardrop-shaped pool, which is very clean, offers breathtaking views of the sea. The staff is very kind, helpful, and responsive. The rooms are fully equipped with all the amenities

Unexpected location, beautiful, Very quiet residence with everything you need, The pool, the gardens, the sea view, nothing is missing...

Lovely pool and direct access to the sea. Best regarded as self catering rather than " hotel". The local supermarket sells delicious home made Sicilia food which I'd highly recommend

Magical place! Structure built overhanging the crystalline sea; only flaw, the access to the sea no longer equipped. The swimming pool (even if small) very useful

Nice seaside hotel, but hard to get to it. Pool did not work.

I didn’t mind as I had booked for 7 nights and there are also beaches nearby and didn’t worry too much as I knew I came out of season. Overall I enjoyed my stay, I wanted a quiet getaway and I got just that!

I did get there late and none of the telephone numbers worked and despite my arrival before 10pm reception was closed and everywhere was dark (no lighting by the pool!) However when I did flag down a member of staff they were helpful, showed me to the room which I thought was very nice and clean

Positives and negatives: beach side with access to the rocky beach. Quiet area, but next to the railway tracks. Without the car it might be difficult to find any transport, long walk uphill to the town

Nice pool, unfortunately they empty it for cleaning reason and remain empty for three days (salt water). Two small parkings, but the only access road is under construction (September 24)

The pool was half empty and green when I arrived but a couple of days later it was cleaned and full again

The best place to stay in Castellammare! Everything about our stay was perfect. The location is great because the hotel is close to the port, restaurants, the piazza, and beaches. They even offer a shuttle to the beach

We really enjoyed our 3 nights here at Hotel Al Madarig. The location is very convenient and central. Friendly staff, great breakfast, and clean rooms. We will definitely stay here again next time we visit.

We loved our room with the balcony overlooking the plaza and the sea. I would not, however, recommend getting a message at the spa

Beautiful hotel in a beautiful location. We were thrilled with our little balcony with a sea view.

We especially enjoyed the breakfast that was served each morning; which included: fresh eggs, fruit, an assortment of cakes and desserts, oven baked fresh bread and panini's-and my favorite-fresh ricotta cheese every morning! We will definately go back to this wonderful hotel experience!

This is by far the best hotel I've ever stayed in. Staff were so friendly, helpful and professional - especially the man at reception. He booked us a shuttle to the airport, which was cheaper than getting a taxi

What an awesome week we had in Orsa Maggiore! The staff is the kindest and the location ideal to enjoy the other islands during the day, relax by the pool with a spritz and make the most of the amazing sunsets that Vulcano has to offer

Great place too stay breakfast included staff was great highly recommend checking it out will definitely teturn again

This was a very good hotel with a lovely swimming pool and the added bonus of a jacuzzi. Cleanliness was excellent with rooms being serviced daily to a high standard

We had a block of three rooms (128, 126, 124) which faced the beautiful pool. Rooms are very clean and nicely decorated. Breakfast each morning had numerous juices, cornetti, eggs, meats, cheese, cereal, yogurt, etc

Amazing hotel with rooms and a pool owerlooking the ocean! The rooms are clean and functional and with a breathtaking view (our Room has a view over the ocean). The staff where super friendly and service minded

The pool is well maintained and a relaxing place. We even received a complementary upgrade of our room upon arrival. A shuttle from and to the hotel is available upon arrival and check out

Our room faced the sea, and opening the curtains in the morning to be bathed in the Mediterranean sunlight was breathtaking. We booked a room with breakfast included, and coffee was unlimited

A beautiful hotel, across from the sea. Can walk thru the beautiful streets of Ortigia. Highly recommend.

We had such a lovely stay, great location, beautiful room, and cute balcony watching the sea.

We really enjoyed this property. The buildings are ancient, but completely renovated and clean. Bathrooms are new, beds are comfortable with good linens. Breakfasts are excellent with many choices.

Can't say enough great things about Algila! The staff was so helpful & accommodating, awesome location, nice rooms and large common areas to gather aft

The breakfast was delicious, the staff impeccable and the room delightful. All in all an excellent stay which I would wholeheartedly recommend.

Fantastic staff, very kind and helpful and always smiling. The location of the hotel is stunning and the views are breathtaking. There's an evening entertainment as well with great songer Federica

We have had seven nights here in the Bai Taormina Hotel where the friendly staff make you feel part of the family, which encourages the guest to mingle and chat and spend the evenings together

I can’t recommend this lovely hotel enough when I visit Sicily this will be where i will be staying. Well done to all the staff here showing much more expensive hotels how it should be done!

It’s also built into the side of a hill with the hotel on three or four different layers with three or four different lifts taking you up and down the hill side and up and down the hotel

Sanny saved my life with a gin tonic. The resort is really great and all staff are amazing! But shout out to Sanny and Cristian for the amazing treatment that i had in my first day.

All presided over by Maitre Dhotel Leo Grasso who went out of his way every evening, to make it special for all the guests including ourselves even organising a vegan birthday cake

The pool area was very tidy and clean with lots of sunbeds to choose. Breakfast was perfect for us with fresh yoghurt, ham, eggs, cereals, pastries and fruit to choose from

The hotel provided TV & Air Con with a continental breakfast it has a large-ish pool and sun bed area with outside bar The staff are extremely helpful and friendly this is another gem of an hotel which delivers highly recommended

Situated in a residential area and just a ten minute walk to the beach)s and about 15/20 minute walk into Giardini Naxos centre with its numerous restaurants and bars a large promenade which stretches for over a mile or more

The area is quiet with a small selection of lovely restaurants nearby and close to beach, but we found the beaches further up Naxos better which is about 20 minute’s walk. Over all a lovely holiday, strongly recommend

Room cleaned everyday and bed linen changed 3 times in a week Ottavio was extremely helpful throughout the stay and a credit to the hotel staff Hotel is 5 minute walk from restaurants and 10 minutes to the beach

Location is the best! Hotel is very near the sandy beach and also a 100 meters away from the public bus station from where departs busses to Catania, Siracusa, Taormina and the airport

The organization, thanks to the amazing Cristina, was seamless and stress-free. The rooms were comfortable, spotless, and welcoming, and the hospitality we received throughout our stay was exceptional

The infrastructure here is solid and works well for us. The pool area is always clean and inviting, and the showers are well-kept

The atmosphere at Resort Santa Maria is vibrant yet laid-back, the staff are warm and friendly, and everything about our stay made us feel truly at home. We had such an amazing time and can’t wait to return!

At the end of May, we had the absolute pleasure of staying at Resort Santa Maria as part of a kite surfing trip with a group of around 24 people. From start to finish, everything was simply wonderful

The apartments genuinely modern, well-maintained, and offer all the amenities we need for a comfortable stay. It's nice to have a clean, contemporary space to relax in after a day kiting

The views from the resort are always a pleasure. Whether you're looking out at the lagoon or the surrounding landscape, it adds a calm and picturesque element to the stay

Opposite the hotel is a flight of wooden stairs down to a pleasant, sandy beach where you can hire an umbrella and two sunbeds for 25 Euros a day or just sit on the sand for free

Nice sea view The modt wonderful location towards the beach. Exceptional good service at reception. Hard bed, an a vague smell pointing downward. Very good value

The only flaw was that in one of the rooms there were many mosquitoes, certainly due to a seasonal problem, but the owner reassured us that next year if we returned we would never find the same problem again

Really nice family run business. If I were to make a suggestion, it is to put some kind of water fountain outside hotel with recirculated water, to rinse off the sand from the beautiful beach below

The town itself is very charming, and the hotel looks directly upon the Mediterranean Sea. The hotel is also situated very close to the phenomenal ruins at Selinunte

There is also a beach bar that has a restaurant that has an all-you-can eat buffet for 18 Euros. All in all, highly recommended

Came during off season; they gave me a free upgrade to a sea-facing room. The front desk was always incredibly kind. It's a 30 minute commute to Taormina, which you can also hike up / down from

Also the staff are very courteous and helpful and it is eco friendly you get to choose your own breakfast menu from a wide variety. They also cater for dairy free and gluten free food and cappuccino

Bath room is spacious, and Palladio provides special facilities for guests with disabilities e. Lots of tops for guests to put their personal toiletries and lots of rails for hanging towels

Organic breakfast is abundant. First time I find bins for recycling a hotel room ! Last but not least, thank you for the staff's recommendation, we had two wonderful dinners at the restaurant nearby

a real gem we could not have been happier from beautiful breakfasts on the rooftop overlooking the sea-- to excellent staff-- felt like I was at home

If I ever return to Girardini Naxos this will be my home away from home

We also loved the private beach access with umbrellas, perfect for a relaxing day by the sea. The room was comfortable and spacious, with a very handy fridge, though overall fairly average

A small tip for the management: some guests reserve sunbeds early by placing towels and then leaving for the day; a polite sign reminding guests not to do this might help

The price was €110 per night in August 2025 for a room for two. It felt a bit expensive, but considering the location in Giardini Naxos and the private beach, it’s understandable

I think we were there just at the beginning of the season but there were no problem with sunbed numbers. Sea, which you can access right in front of the hotel still a bit cold, pool great

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Kalos! One of the highlights was definitely the adorable stray cats roaming the gardens, they are friendly and even let guests pet them

It shares the pool, restaurant and the beach with Nike hotel, which is a good thing because pool, though small is filled with sea water that gets warm during the day and feels awesome! Beach is nice, for swimmers only to be honest, because it's slippery and has lots of rocks

Great location and great pool at night Excellent location … great views … around 800m away from the beach .. down the hill Friendly staff Great pool that is accessible all the time

Rooms very spacious for our family with lovely outdoors. Staff super helpful and attended to our queries striaght away. Lovely children's area at the swings and an amazing pool area. Surely a place to go to! Thankyou!

Very good stay, staff is very helpful, house is large with a terrasse, good swimming pool and bar, amazing view. The bathroom could be modernized.

Quiet, lovely pool area, friendly and helpful staff. The seeview property we stayed in our last day was very nice with an amazing view.

The hotel has some good amenities - pool table, table tennis and a play area for children. It is a little walk away from the town (about 10-15 minutes) and there is quite a steep hill to get back

Lovely pool area and very nice views! The staff were lovely and always very friendly and helpful. Nice coffee with breakfast although the breakfast itself wasn’t brilliant for the cost

The hotel has a great restaurant with all typical Italian dishes. The food is great with a great sea view. The hotel also contains the option to be at the pool or the beach

The La Martinica is a very nice hotel with free beach access! The own restaurant is very good and the whole staff is really friendly :) Only minus point for me is the breakfast, which lacks fresh food, lots of prepacked food or toast!

The lady working during breakfast was really nice and welcoming. The staff at the reception tried their best to be informative. They solved all issues and answered all of our questions

The room was comfortable and the view to the sea from the balcony was just awesome. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool a lot and of course the delicious ice cream and pastry at the local store

Located in the middle of nowhere-ish place, but driving in and out was ok. A friendly staff, lovely pool and beach

The room number we had was ground floor. The room itself has all the basic needs and the cleaning staff would provide new shampoos and towels daily. Our room had a balcony with a view on the sea

Family hotel located in the city center near the seaside Small rooms Simple breakfast

Alessio and Mustafa will make your night special here in Positano, their hospitality is unmatched, almost as unmatched as the view!! A definite must-visit for drinks after dinner or for the sunset!

Very close to the attractions. Very lively. Parking is a bit inconvenient.

Excellent location, the room was clean and comfortable, AND QUIET!!! As many places in centro storico in Cefalù, parking is central and you must walk to the hotel

They have an elevator and please remember to use it to visit their rooftop bar. Sunset views from here are not to be missed!

We made a last minute booking and they were happy to accommodate us

Wonderful owner/staff, beautiful views, and sea across the street, great dining, casual, and great pool, etc. Walking along beach is wonderful.

Rooms great size and cleaned every single day (fresh towels etc) Good AC in room (we had a Quadruple room - double bed and two single beds with balcony facing the pool and sea / mountains)

In all - absolutely wonderful hotel and with this great location - and able to book beach loungers and even beach hut, it was ideal for our family holiday. Nothing negative to say only loads of positives

Housekeeping girls were great / welcoming and helpful working tirelessly. Great large pool , lovely and warm with lots of loungers and parasols

Fantastic hotel right on the sea front

Great breakfast with choices of: Scrambled Egg, hard boiled eggs, frankfurters, bacon, toast, bread rolls, salami, cheeses, yogurts, biscuits, fruit, juices, lots of cakes selections and lovely coffee etc

Well placed, welcoming and attentive staff, lovely spacious room, with wooden floors and ceiling beams (we booked the suite), good shower and a jacuzzi bath, simple but fresh breafast. Great experience. Thank you.

Very good value accommodation in the heart of Milazzo in an elegant pedestrian street Air-Con room was spotless clean. The bed comfortable and the bathroom spacious. Breakfast excellent and plentiful

If has an elevator, so you won’t have to worry if you’re carrying a heavy luggage The hydrofoil terminal is just 7 minutes of flat ground-walking from the structure

It was very comfortable, spotlessly clean, quiet and a super helpful girl on reception who looked up bus and train times for me

Also the WiFi worked without any problem. A family run business where the owners can give you all kind of tourist advice

Great breakfast. Comfortable room. Good location. The staff went out of their way to help us out.

Nice room, good breakfast, friensly staff and we also had a beautiful view of the sea.

This hotel is very clean and very friendly is a great location the staff are so friendly and lovely breakfast very good value for money definitely will stay again perfect location do go and see the island and lots of restaurants with in 10 minutes walk

CAMERE BELLISSIME E PULITISSIME. COLAZIONE CON PRODOTTI DI ALTA QUALITA' ED AMPIA SCELTA. LA PROPRIETARIA ED IL PERSONALE DI UNA DISPONIBILITA' CHE QUASI CI HA MESSO IN IMBARAZZO. GRAZIE PER TANTA ACCOGLIENZA

Stayed at room with 2 seperated beds. They where really Big!! Really clean place, a lot of space, good people, close to centre, wi-fi of course, breakfast is tipical italian so for me it is good

Ideally located as not near the main hustle and bustle but a short t walk. Beautifully kept rooms. Clean, comfy and very large bed. Great to eat breakfast in the garden even in November

Good location near port and also city center, nice rooms, kind personal, good breakfast, easy parking.

A lovely, small and quiet hotel, run by a welcoming Sicilan family and staff. Very clean, with lovely sea views and a short walk down steps to their private beach, where beds and umbrellas are provided at no extra cost

Great position just by the sea and in walking distance to the amazing Selinunte temples. Nice staff and clean hotel.

Great location and terrace overlooking the sea. Staff spoke little English but tried to be as helpful as possible. We were offseason and there was good parking available. In season is probably very difficult

Food was delicious and we found the portion sizes very generous so shared some dishes! Marinella di Selinunte is quite quiet, there are a couple of tourist shops but otherwise it's not overly commercialised, which added to the area's charm for us

Flat screen TVs and mini fridges in rooms, free fast WiFi and air-conditioning. We took advantage of the free safety deposit box (located behind reception) to keep passports and a few valuables safe

Good choice of breakfast foods and nothing was too much trouble. The huge Selinunte archaeological site is within walking distance (albeit uphill/steps in places) and well worth a visit

Exceptional Hotel Extremely clean / all modern facilities/ excellent breakfast the hotel is situated on the top of the city walking distance to everything you need…

Great stay. Excellent location. Thoroughly recommend

Very nice room, modern decor and amenities. The rooftop pool and patio are amazing, just by the sea. Comfortable, nice dimension and very clean. The breakfast was delicious and provided many varied options

The staff were welcoming and helpful. Parking was available for free on small alleys nearby as directed by the staff. Our seaside room with three balconies was Spectacular

I'm what you might call a seasoned traveller and I've stayed a whole range of establishments throughout the world, but this hotel stands out as one of the best

Very nice and clean, top views from the Sea view rooms! Couldn‘t Imagine a better place in castellammare!
