Very, very bad!
The worst hotel I've ever stayed in! The location is bad - between the highway and the railway, Wi-Fi is so weak that it would be better to say there is none. Coffee for breakfast is terrible, food is poor and low quality. The hotel is definitely not worth the money!

Property was well located on the beach just outside of Taormina. A shuttle bus was available if you wanted to get to the city. Beach club was included in the tariff and well appreciated. Staff were immaculate in restaurants, reception and housekeeping. It felt like a 5 star hotel. I could not fault this resort.

The hotel is very simple. Pros: hotel is clean. Rooms are cleaned every day. The staff is fantastic and extremely welcoming. Beach is stunning, probably best beach in whole Sicily. Shuttle to Taormina is great. Reception staff is fantastic. Cons:without car you can’t walk anywhere. Parking is difficult. There’s problem with lunch with very limited options especially for children. No store or shop in hotel territory. Room is very small. No room in closet for 2 people.

The location is the best to enjoy the beach of Taormina. It is like living a dream. The free shuttle service means you can enjoy Taormina centro any time of the day or night. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is of an exceptional level. The staff are so friendly and accommodating and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a beachside stay in Taormina.

The hotel was a distance from Taormina town but the shuttle service was excellent, thank you Salvatore & co. The reception was well tended and the reception staff were always available to answer questions and recommend good restaurants in town. The room had a great view of the sea. The room was clean thanks to the team of Chambermaids. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the bar was fully stocked. The staff, especially Adriano, Gian Luca and Fabrizio were very accommodating and always found time to chat with customers. Will definitely go back one day

Location was close to town and the hotel provided a shuttle to Taormina town center. Private beach. Not easy to walk places. A ride was needed to go anywhere. Beautiful hotel. Dinner menu in the restaurant was limited and the only option near or at the hotel. Breakfast was amazing. Many choices.

Yes the hotel is dated - but everything else over compensates ! The hotel is genuine beach side with a lovely beach area and pool area for guests. Tranquil garden setting that is so relaxing. Every room has their own garden or balcony and rooms are spacious. The staff were amazing ! The free shuttle to Taormina at all hours is so handy

Weird cruise ship vibe!
The private beach was great and was really the only reason you’d stay at this hotel. Although you got harassed by people selling stuff who wouldn’t take no for an answer and you need to pay 3 euro for a towel. The beach bar had VERY limited food options and there isn’t a bar by the pool (perhaps this hotel is pitched at elderly cruise ship types who don’t want cocktails by the pool). Breakfast was below average. Mostly pastries and cakes that were frozen. Issues with the Wi-Fi connection. Shuttle bus - limited service, generally on time but it does leave early sometimes. The driver also dropped a lady who could barely walk at the top of the hill in the dark and I asked if he could drop her at the door which was ignored by him and then he drove down past the door to turn around anyway. Very random shuttle bus service as some nights they would drop you at the door. It you take a taxi to town it’s 20 euro. Definitely can’t walk into town. It’s over 4 kms and you can’t actually walk on parts of the road so it would be unsafe to do so. Overall the hotel was average. Guess it depends what you are looking for in your stay. I definitely booked the wrong hotel.

Hotel was clean and room was modern and well appointed. The staff accommodated a room change to the side of hotel with a view on night 2 which made a big difference. The beach is great - quiet and relaxing. Breakfast good quality buffet style. Beach bar food was not the best standard or variety but plenty of nice lunch options at places along the beach from the hotel. The minibus service to/from Taormina was really good - took the hassle and cost out of taxis.

Lovely hotel with very comfortable and clean rooms. The staff are very helpful and kind. Close to the beach and they provide a frequent free shuttle service to the main town. Incredble gardens with beautiful palm trees and flowers. Strangely the trains run right past the hotel but a high hedge covers the view and they dont really affect the lovely experience of staying at the hotel.
