Santa Venerina Hotels & Accommodations

Was a very bad experience. I went there with my mum and we choose to spend time inside the spa and also we choose some treatments. They first didn’t give us enough time then we had to do the massage separate, and after that because my mum went before me when she came back was closing time apparently they just drop her in the hall with all the bags and wet hair saying to her now it’s close. When I came back after my massage I was thinking she was enjoying the spa for the half an hour but in fact she was left in the corridor waiting for me since I started the massage. After that I had to change my clothes in the commonal toilet which wasn’t really a problem but we didn’t have even a hairdryer. We had to leave there with wet hairs both of us which did made us become sick in the afternoon. Also we called before going to ask what we need to bring qnd the lady said about bringing everything like towels bathrobe etc. which in fact we didn’t use nothing , but mostly they didn’t even say to us “oh it will be closing time , so perhaps bring your hairdryer “ or maybe something as “if we would like to change the time because we would have not have time to change properly “ they just told to us to get a room just to shower and change but they didn’t even explain to us. And we said why would we have to get a room for just 1 hour ? We could have used our hairdyer in the commonal toilet. Anyway very very very bad experience. Never go there. I just wanted to spend some time between mum and daughter.

A really lovely little gem - we felt so comfortable and relaxed here (we're a couple in our late 50s). The staff are very friendly and usefully speak English. The room was clean and large with a large queen size bed and extra pillows, quilts etc. The bathroom was also large and well stocked with a good hot shower. The buildings are eclectic and charming, every room seems to have its own little outdoor seating area with table and chairs. The breakfast was a really good spread with plenty of choice and all nice and fresh. We also ate dinner in the restaurant which was a good tasty meal and not expensive. We used the pool and sunbathing area and there's a pool bar where they'll bring you hot and cold drinks. We used the free bikes (which to be honest were a little bit past their best) to cycle down the lanes to the coast. The area immediately around the hotel is not especially interesting and you need to drive/cycle to get into Giarre where there are bars, restaurants and shops; it would be feasible to walk but the road is busy and there isn't a pavement all the way. There's a perfect view of Etna from the hotel of course and it is a great base to explore the area, Taormina, Catania, AciReale, Aci Castello, Alcantara Gorge. Highly recommend.

We stayed for a weekend of pure relaxation and that was it. Wellness center is actually small but just right if you really want to unplug. The staff are nothing short of exceptional, from the reception to the wellness center, through to the waiters and the maitre d'. The food was very good, in fact we also stayed for Sunday lunch. I had reported an allergy to black pepper which was always paid attention to by the dining room staff. What can I say, we felt pampered. I highly recommend it.

The hotel is very well located in the green, very carefully managed and passionately. Two comments, one on logistics from nearby railways and it takes a few hours to get used to the trains passing, the other on staff cleaning rooms that arrive in the morning resulted I was a stupid and awkward man of things waking me up. We will certainly return because the star restaurant deserves more than one visit.

I recently returned to the Restaurant with my family and must say that this place has successfully maintained a consistent high level quality: from the caring service to the excellent cuisine. We had a wide selection of seafood starters whose freshness was undisputed. We also had a memorable dish of lobster linguine. The remarkable desserts concluded a great lunch. One last remark for those who have never been there: the close proximity to the sea is the icing on the cake.
