"Nice and cozy place"

"While there, we saw from the balconies, the 49er and 49er fx competitions, as well as the participants tryouts with windsurfing.A very active waterfront, including many higher quality dining venues. A wonderful town with open air and coop markets very friendly people.Guissepe made our stay one of welcome and comfort. (made us feel like home)Only downside, was the UPSIDE.... 3 floors up, and then another to go to bed....a well earned rest.Again, our thanks to a wonderful host"

"From the moment I met the beautiful young lady who took me to my room to the next morning when she invited me up on the rooftop deck for breakfast, the room and service was amazing. The view of the sea and the mountain was unbelievable. Thank you and I will be back. Pictures are view from my room and balcony "

"An absolute beautiful small hotel to stay in. Very organised and atmosphere is very charming and relaxing. You can have breakfast by the pool and view the sea with a cool breeze and gentle music playing in the background. Pool is open 9am to 7pm with one hour closure between 1:30-2:30pm Again gentle music playing in the background making very settled and relaxing atmosphere. Bar and lifeguard are in place too. The private beach that is connected to the hotel was so safe and organised. There is a secure entry and reception to it. Non hotel members can use the beach but have to pay a fee. Hotel members can access beach for free but need to pay for umbrella and beds if needed(€15). Beach also provides locked private changing rooms. As well as there is a lifeguard and security in place. There is a small play ground for kids to play in and a Volleyball game in the area for teenagers and older. There is also a good reasonable priced cafeteria at the beach. Beautiful sandy beach one can’t get enough of and is mostly visited by families. The neighbouring private beach Saracen have louder cheerful music and beach activities which adds to the fun. Local train station is Capaci and is about 15 min walk, but train frequency to Palermo central is every hour and takes about 45 minutes or half an hour to plazzo Reale-Orleans, so it is advisable to plan accordingly, otherwise a lot of time can be wasted waiting for the trains and getting to places. I highly recommend this hidden gem"
