"We sprayed in the Lipari Suite, overlooking the beach - the view for sunrise was breathtaking - the room was spotless & the lady who came to clean was so friendly! We loved the choice at breakfast, everything was delicious and fresh. The beach was really nice (though I wasn’t a fan of the rocks and pebbles) and the pool area was really nice and relaxing. We travelled onto Siracusa and Taormina and have missed everything about the hotel since we left - we would love to stay again"

"We stayed here 1 night. The room was clean and perfect. The continental breakfast was tasty. Location is walkable to good food and the beaches. Parking is free but limited. We felt lucky to find a spot. It’s a little confusing which building the apt is in. FYI- once you park, walk back up to toward the street and the building is on the left. Look for the glass doors leading to a dark, empty lobby. Enter the building and walk to the left, take the tiny elevator to the 4th floor."
