We absolutely loved the stunning beach and the boat service to explore nearby Siracusa. The staff was incredibly accommodating, especially when we requested amenities for our baby, ensuring our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.
My wife says that it would be great if better food options were available for families with children.

The views here are incredible, particularly from the terrace overlooking Ortigia, making every moment spent outdoors a delight. The pool and sandy beach area are beautifully maintained, and the staff are attentive, quickly delivering food and drinks wherever needed. However, the rooms felt small and somewhat dated, needing updates to match the ambiance, and the dining options were limited, lacking the variety expected in a high-end resort. Overall, this was a mixed experience, balancing stunning views with some areas needing improvement.

Amazing staff and lovely service.
I was incredibly disappointed with the dining options. The restaurant prices felt outrageously high for average meals, and I had high expectations for Italian food. The limited dishes and mediocre quality really left a bad taste in my mouth—literally. Despite the beautiful ambiance, the food simply did not match up.

Had an awesome time with friends! The views were breathtaking, especially from the private beaches, and the pools were a great way to relax. We enjoyed daily trips to Ortigia and hit up great local restaurants. The staff was super friendly, and the breakfast options were top-notch!
One downside was the restaurant prices, which felt a bit high for average meals. We'd recommend exploring local dining instead.
