This hotel, its staff, the pool, the sea pool, the food and the ambience exceeded our expectations! We had a five-day trip planned to Eastern Sicily, and we could not have picked a better place to lay our heads. The whole experience was exceptional and to be repeated time and again! Do not miss dinner at the lovely Oleander restaurant or the fantastic sea pool. The staff in all parts of the hotel are lovely, helpful and very cheerful!!

Visiting from U.S. Hotel was nice. Pool had plenty of chairs and complimentary towels. Pool closed at dinner time so you can't go in the evening. You can swim in the Sea easily and there is a lifeguard. Breakfast choices were plentiful. Only drawback was the bus system is erratic. They don't come often and don't stick to the schedule. The Trenitalia train was very punctual and a 12 minute walk away. Taxi back to airport cost 35 Euros.

Amazing stay at Baia Verde. The staff is extremely professional and provides valuable attention to the customer’s confort. The lady at the desk was very kind and efficient, as well as the pool staff and bartenders (who make very nice cocktails). The venue is amazing with a very clean pool next to a private sea access. Will definitely come back, Grazie Mille for the welcome!

Thank you hotels.com Another excellent hotel. Rooms large and clean, serviced every day. Breakfast lovely, on the veranda, buffet style but everything covered, even a pancake machine! fruits, cereal, pastries cheese and meats. View of sea from rooms wonderful. Only a small issue with room balcony at the start. I scuba dive so required an external balcony to dry my kit on, did not have one for first night, requested a change, room was switched, even moved the luggage for us without asking SERVICE or what? Thoroughly recommend this hotel. Exceeded all expectations A big thank you from us.

Great stay
Beautiful, traditional hotel with outstanding sea views! The hotel staff were really friendly and rooms spacious! A few suggestions to improve guests stay: . Room air con was not easy to operate . No Ironing facilities - at all? Zero, not even an ironing room? - very strange for a hotel hosting conventions . Pool opening hours could be expanded (even just for adults) 10-6pm is a little short.

Very nice hotel. Not so nice gym.
Very nice hotel. Very clean, and the staff was very professional. Breakfast was also top-notch. The only issue I had was with the gym. They say they have a gym, but they don't; the equipment is old, and there are only a handful of dumbbells to use. If you're like me and need a gym, there is a gym 1 mile away (I walked) called Palestra Area Fitness that is very nice and offers day passes. Other than that, great hotel! Also keep in mind you will be about 4 miles away from downtown. You will need a taxi to get there which costs anywhere from 20-30 euros each way.
