The pool are was beautiful, the rest of the property is outdated. Warn out mattress, you can see the springs through blanket, not comfortable. Would be a great place if updated room, lived the easy access to beach,about 200 feet away.
They have the best staff. Very helpful with whatever you need. Large room with balcony and beautiful view. The restaurant on the hotel ground is wonderful. The whole staff made sure ee got exactly what we wanted and the way we wanted it. Domenico was especially attentive. We loved our meals there, and were sad to leave the Hotel.
Property needs updating. Pool use not included-surcharge of $5 per person per day. Beach Umbrellas and chairs not included. Breakfast and service was disappointing. Very loud music when ballroom and/or pool have an event like a birthday or wedding which is often - experienced loud music until 1:30am. Difficult to find parking during these events.
Absolutely the best in the region. Exceeded our high expectations. Owner was always on site and overseeing that our stay was perfect. Highly recommend.
Adequate for our need but a tired property. Pool is nice but not much shade. Wedding events are very loud. Beach is lovely. Parking is a bit of a mess.
The staff were very friendly and attentive. Our travel plans delayed a day which was truly regrettable. Would have loved to spent another night. My children arranged a birthday surprise for me at the hotel and the staff put it altogether through e-mails. It was so nice!! Grazie Mille!
Bugs all over room, sheets feel like cardboard (horribly uncomfortable beddy), weddings that go until 3-4am every night (don’t plan on sleeping!), wifi does not work, and just overall outdated and uncleanly property.
Cadre agréable, hôtel spacieux, tout est présent pour y séjourner plus longuement.

Nur auf den ersten Blick top
Der Start war geprägt von Zimmersuche ohne Fehler. Im ersten ließ sich die Balkontür nicht öffnen, im zweiten war die Klimaanlage defekt. Das dritte war dann ok, bis auf die Bettkopfteile, die sind in den gesehenen Zimmern im miserablen Zustand. Ansonsten Zimmer groß, Bad auch ok. Großer Pool ohne Stehtiefe, Damentoilette nicht abschließbar, Toilettendeckel liegt daneben !! Frühstück: Rührei nicht frisch (Geruch?)
Etwas mehr Achtsamkeit fürs Detail wäre angebracht.
Schon für deutlich weniger Geld qualitativ wesentlich besser übernachtet.
En el hotel había una fiesta con musica hasta la 01:00 de la madrugada, hasta la 01:30 una persona hablando con un micrófono. Nos deberían haber avisado para reservar en otro hotel… a esto añadir que el desayuno era de 6:30 a 9:30, con el check out a las 10:30… dormir lo que es dormir mucho no pudimos
Soggiorno di vacanza - punto di forza: buono hotel, fronte mare.
Mare: cristallino, bandiera blu, spiaggia attrezzata e tranquilla poco lontana dal centro di Roccella: già questo vale il soggiorno.
Hotel: niente da eccepire ma niente che incanti, possono fare di più ma si limitano all'essenziale, senza che ciò inifici sostanzialmente il soggiorno che nell'insieme è confortevole.
In ogni caso, nell'eventualità, ritornerò.
Soggiorno di vacanza, hotel fronte mare: mare pulito e splendido bandiera blu, hotel nulla da eccepire può migliorare nei servizi e nell'organizzazione ma niente di criticabile tale da scalfire il soggiorno anche se al tempo stesso niente da
The best service ever from a place we didn't stay!
The booking had not been confirmed to the hotel by Hotels.com and they were full so could not accommodate us. The staff were incredibly helpful and apologetic even though it was clearly not their fault. The manager found us a table by the pool with a cold drink while they put themselves out to find us another hotel. They found us two options and even offered to drive us to the other hotel and pick us up later for dinner at a restaurant we had already booked. We chose one of the hotels and as we left they gave us a gift to take with us. When we checked out from the other hotel they would not take payment as the bill had already been paid by Hotel Kennedy. Thank you to all at the Kennedy who went above and beyond to help us out!
