Villa Del Lauro

"Attention : the receptionist is a big liar ! The guy working at the reception is a disaster. He is dishonest and tried to charge twice the normal price for taxi that we ordered which was already over priced (130€ for 30 minutes ride vs. 60€ normal price) against huge commission from taxi company. Furthermore, they tried to charge the minibar which was free. The receptionist showed unwillingness when we left the luggage at the reception upon check out, even though it was to store for just a few hours, time to visit the old town. He put lots of pressure for check out time even it was about 11:10 and wanted to ask us to pay extra. There was no wifi nor air conditioning in the room which was literally a small cave. No fresh air in the room and impossible to get hot water for baby in the room. In addition, they forgot to put baby cot and charged additional fee for it (first time in Sicily during our 2-week trip). The only positive thing is that the servers for breakfast were very nice and helpful and there is a nice pool. It’s a pity that it’s ruined by the receptionists who were unfriendly, unhelpful and rude. The hotel’s management should alert the receptionists and give them a proper training."

Aura Club - Villa Carlotta

"Fantastic structure, we stayed for 3 days and tried the couple massage that I strongly recommend! The owner boy is very nice and nice, but the chilli on the cake is the kitchen managed by Chief Cavalli person in a way and a real professional in the industry! We have been really good! We will surely return"

Relais Parco Cavalonga

"We had a wonderful 3 nights here. Noam I was charming and helped us - made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was simple but fresh & gorgeous. Its location is perfect for exploring and visiting nearby coastal towns, castles and baroque sites. We would love to revisit and spend more time here. Thank you 🙏"

La Dimora di Spartivento, Signature Collection

"We booked this believing it was an Agriturismo so were horrified to arrive & find a "Best Western" sign! And our initial feelings weren't helped by a disinterested receptionist & the clinically modern rooms. It's also located right next to a busy road, although somewhat hidden & there was no disturbing road noise noticed. All that said, the rooms were very clean & functional. We were obviously unlucky with our check in receptionist because all the other staff were, without fail, delightful, friendly, knowledgeable & helpful. Breakfast was okay, a typical Italian buffet, although the selection felt more supermarket than farm in origin, but the ladies running it were also delightful. The location is ideal if you have your own car, as it's great for exploring the surrounding area & towns. And the view from the pool & the terrace outside the breakfast room is beautiful. If they served more local produce & gave the rooms a little more character then this could easily be a 4 star."

Acacia Marina

"Lovely hotel a few minutes from sandy beach. 2 good sized pools 1 over 12s only + jacuzzis. Our room with a side seaview was a good size with full length and breadth window/glass door and good bathroom and good a/c. Worth extra money if you intend to sit out/spend time in your room or on balcony. Buffet breakfast well managed with tables cleared & relayed promptly as with the wide vatiety of breskfast items which included cook to order egg/omlette/panckes. We went half board and enjoyed the variety - different every night with typically a fish, meat and pasta dish cooked for you in a few minutes. A wide selection of savoury and sweet items again different every night. Majorty of guests used the many different restsurants in the area which those we spoke to said were good. Well staffed - waiters were charming and helpful particularly Giuseppe and Benjamin who always had time to say hello. Reception staff were helpful as was Jet2 rep who was from the local area so very knowledgable. Sadly it was a bit too hot for us to do the trips on offer to several historical sites. Would recommend the afternoon/ early evening speedboat trip which we were offered. . The journey from airport is just over 2 hours but does give you a chance to see some more of Sicilly. We were 2 sisters recently retired"

Poggio Del Sole Hotel

" Poggio del Sole Hotel Is a hotel of contradiction with impressive and grossly unimpressive features. The hotel is very large considering its remote, rural location. The foyer area is enormous with a large comfortable lounge area. There are numerous large dining areas and you can also eat by the side of the large pool. The pool also has a bar so you can order drinks and snacks. The decor is tasteful with wooden reproductions of a variety of cactus plants including the prickly pear, a noxious **** in Australia but its fruit is used to flavour spirits in Sicily. All sounds very impressive and favourable so far. So how do most people spend most of their time besides sleeping? Browsing the Internet on their phones and iPads. Whilst “free WiFi” signs are common in hotels, cafes etc., it is now a universal expectation. With this in mind, efficient internet connectivity is both mandatory and essential. During our two day stay, WiFi was generally unavailable. To make matters worse, the restaurant menu was only available electronically and there were no paper back up menus. Selecting a food choice from an invisible menu is a challenge. Understandably the restaurant staff seemed to be in a permanent state of stress. The food was very good but a prayer may be needed to get what you ordered. Oh! yes. The rooms are large and have all the expected facilities except for drink making items. Large bed but with 3-stars for comfort. Large bathroom, hot water but wafer thin towels. So lots of pluses, a few minor negatives and the WiFi issue may not be a regular problem (suspect it is), restaurants have atmosphere and reasonable food so just remember to bring a book to read for when your mobile device is inoperative."

Relais Antica Badia - San Maurizio 1619

"Great location and unique rooms. Wonderful breakfast selection"

Relais Chiaramonte

"We stayed at the SPA Suite, the whole stay was great, with a very attentive and nice team. The restaurant is amazing, but the best thing of our experience was Gonzalo, the maitre, which made our stay truly unique. Thank you and greetings from London."

B&B Belvedere All'Idria

"Belvedere all'Idria is located between Ragusa Ibla and Ragusa Superiore. There is parking on the street close to the property. The rooms are nice and have balconies. The breakfast is quite good. The rooms are just one level higher than the street level and so very accessible. The host was very responsive to questions."

Casato Licitra

Sabbinirica

"The room was clean, the facilities were complete, quiet and the service was good. The style of the whole hotel is very accent, whether it is a -2 restaurant or a -1 lounge, people will read books, eat, and sit quietly. recommend."

Antico Convento Dei Cappuccini

"Beautiful position near the old town and a beautiful building. However, the room we were placed in was well below the standard expected. The shower hose did not work, the shower drain was blocked, and the little air conditioner did not cope with the 29 degrees inside the room. When asked if anything could be fixed, no was the answer. The rooms are very small so don't travel here with two many bags!"
