Alright for an overnight stay
The hotel is ‘alright’. There’s small pool with loungers, but try sitting near it, a shuttle to the beach is another option. The superior room we had had a broken balcony door, however, the receptionist was helpful and moved us to another room. Whilst clean, the room did smell of stale smoke and the pillows were very hard, the bathroom decor tired. That said, it is an ‘alright’ hotel. We were passing through and stayed one night. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms clean and it’s fairly well located with secure underground parking. More positive than negative on the whole but I wouldn’t rush back to the town. It’s suitable if you are in need of a well priced base before taking a couple of hours drive to Erice which was a welcome return to scenic, beautiful Sicily at its’ best.

The facility is mediocre. Location probably good for beach combers but not for others. Desk staff is very poor and failed us on numerous occasions. This is just a hotel for group tours.

Great experience at Mahara
The hotel staff went all out in helpfulness and courtesy. When there. Were no taxis working to get us to the bus station one of thestaff drove us herself. They helped us plan our transportation with the bus schedule The food in the restaurant was outstanding even though there were only a handful of guests offseason. For breakfast they provided free room service with food fit for a king,s banquet.

FANTASTIC
We had a fantastic breakfast in the courtyard. The staff was friendly when we arrived and told us about breakfast the next morning, but the experience was better than expected. The food selection was enormous and the courtyard amazing. The location is close to the beach. We also met the owner Antonio and he gave us an explanation of the history of the location. He was so passionate. I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel.

Great hotel for everyone!
The hotel is great, literally across the road from an amazing beach and sea. Restaurants and the best ice cream places can be found along the main road where the hotel is located (perfect for those with a sweet tooth like me). Inside the hotel and room is super clean and all the staff are really nice and very helpful. The room was clean and comfortable at all times. The view was amazing from the room. The pool is nice and big with enough room to swim. I cannot express in words how much of a great time I had here! I will 100% be back!

utter disgrace
We arrived on monday 8th July to an average room which was supposed to be superior. On the 2nd day there was a power failure rendering the hotel without running water, sanitation, lights, air conditioning or electricity at the socket outlets. We were advised this would be restored on various ocassions which proved to be incorrect. The power was off for almost 48hrs with no assistance from hotel staff ie providing candles, bottled water etc. As soon as we found another hotel me, my wife and 2 young children left immediately.

Liked: Cleanliness
It is in a convenient location about a 10 minute walk from the city center. It is on the waterfront, but about 1 km from the beach. The waterfront is littered with trash and smells badly in some places. The staff is efficient, but not everyone is very helpful. They speak limited English. The lobby is nice, but the hallway where my room was located needed to be refurbished and smelled a bit odd. The room was plain, but clean and a nice size by the standards of many European hotels. I did not try the restaurant. It is an adequate hotel, but is nothing special.

Very nice
We just stayed in the Mahara while visiting family in Mazara and it was very nice. Clean room, free wi-fi, large shower, nice pool and a pleasant staff. It's definitely not a four star, but I read reviews before staying there so that's what I excepted, but it was still a great place for the price and I would stay again!

Een luidruchtige accomodatie, waarbij we niet gekend zijn in grote feesten en gym. Zwembad was niet te gebruiken door het feest. We hebben wel een upgrade gekregen naar een rustigere kamer, maar de overlast bleef tot diep in de nacht. Als ons dat bekend was geweest, dat dit een locatie was voor bruiloften en feesten, dan hadden we dit NIET geboekt. Het personeel heeft wel direct gereageerd, door ons gelijk een andere kamer te geven.
