Good location. If you are driving, you should take care of parking in advance. The photo numbers do not match a little with those on the website

If I had to pick one good thing, it would be that the sea is nearby.

Something fabulous. Bungalows right on the beach. A wonderful sunrise. Beautiful view of Etna. Clean tidy. A very nice employee - a great person. The breakfast was modest but the coffee was delicious. 12 minutes to the airport. Open 24 hours. I am very satisfied. This place probably benefits in the summer, during the season. Nice infrastructure. Cottages in a wooded area, sandy beach, parking, 24-hour service. Just go there.

I will definitely go back. Practically on the sea. The beautiful beach a few meters from the bungalow. Excellent cleaning. Friendly and pleasant staff. Large green spaces. Restaurant and tobacconist. Nearby there are restaurants, bars and a Lidl reachable in a few minutes by car. Bus stop for Catania center right at the entrance of the structure. Airport 5 minutes away.

I rarely write reviews, but Michael at the front desk is really worthy of praise. He is very enthusiastic and helpful👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. He also helped us upgrade to a seaside room. When we opened the door, we saw the boundless sea and a beautiful sunrise. , very comfortable resort hotel with good environment

The resort itself is okay, but the cottages have terrible ventilation. When the air conditioner is heated at night, the entrance door is "wet" in the morning, "flowing". The towel takes 3 days to dry. Clothes attract moisture. Breakfast is quite poor, croissants, marmalade, one type of rolls and one cold meat and cheese. No fruit or vegetables. There are some breakfast cereals, but there are no bowls for them... the only staff at the reception can communicate in English, plus one gentleman who is a kind of "manager", a man for everything - very nice, helpful, his English is not the best , but he always tries to talk and help. I recommend the resort only to people who care about access to the beach.

The cabins are basic but OK. It's only a few minutes to the beach. And a fairly short, easy bus ride into the city. There is a restaurant on site. However, several nights of the week there is a terrible club next door that plays very loud, awful music all night. It's a shame but that ruins the place for me.

We stayed here end of May 2023 to first week in June. We stayed in a beach bungalow which has a lovely view as is located directly on the beach. The draw backs of this is the sand does get everywhere and the noise of the planes going over as so close to the airport is very disruptive. The TV didnt work and the shower made the whole floor completely wet. The breakfast was very basic no hot food there was cereal, juices, croissants, bread, ham, cheese, cold hard boiled eggs and yogurts available. Resturant on site was not open at lunch times when we looked a few times during the stay as previously advertised. The food in evening was very nice and staff were so friendly and helpful however most of them didnt speak English. The worst part about the stay here other than how loud planes were was the club next door afro club who had some sort of festival that went on all night playing the loudest music it was by far the most irritating experience of my life. 3 am went past and there was no let up to noise levels and no one to complain too. We came on this holiday to relax and it has been completely ruined by this rave at this club blasting techno music for hours on end as well as drunk locals standing around outside the rooms making noise. There was no warning about this before hand or we would not of stayed here. Buses were very in frequent which made it hard to get around the bus stop however is located right outside hotel but they are supposed to run around every 40 mins doesnt appear to be the case they more like run every hour to hour and half which makes it extremely difficult to get around. There are lots of restaurants close by which is handy and lidl in walking distance but not possible to walk to catania central as the roads run out of pavement. The stay here would of be alot higher had there not been this noisy club next door having all night parties. But this is not a family orientated place its very run down needs lots of renovation. Not much to do for children.

One of the best service in all my life! I was in an emergency in the middle of the night, I called more than 10 hotel/b&b in Catania and NOONE accepted my reservation ( hotel 4 star too and so on ). At 03.30 a.m. I found this place and Mr Domenico was so kind to give me a room for the night so I could rest for few hours before my flight. If he didn't help me I would have slept in my car close to the airport. Bad experience with an HAPPY ending thanks to him. I Recommend 100%! Uno dei migliori servizi in tutta la mia vita! Ero in emergenza nel cuore della notte, ho chiamato più di 10 hotel/b&b a Catania e NESSUNO ha accettato la mia prenotazione (anche hotel 4 stelle e così via). Alle 03:30 ho trovato questo posto e il signor Domenico è stato così gentile da darmi una stanza per la notte in modo che potessi riposarmi qualche ora prima del mio volo. Se non mi avesse aiutato avrei dormito in macchina vicino all'aeroporto. Brutta esperienza con un lieto fine grazie a lui. Consiglio al 100%!

If I had listened to the terrible comments I read I would never have spent this wonderful holiday. My husband, daughter and I spent a very nice week, the village is 10 minutes from the city centre and we moved around with the bus that passes right in front. The restaurant La Botte offers fresh fish and has a really good quality/price ratio, like the rooms, the sea view (right on the beach) in my area would have exceeded two hundred euros compared to the 70 or so paid in this structure. The only flaw is the poorly maintained greenery, really kind staff, ready to accommodate every need. They also offered us Sicilian Cannoli!! We will be back!! See you soon Fam. Cristaudo Room 605 sea view!!

I was actually looking for a hotel room, but because I read the advert too quickly I ended up at a campsite with garage-like "bungalows". You have to park here and then lug your suitcase about 100 m. For me as a senior citizen, that's an enormous effort. The room is small and a bit "old". After opening the outside door, you're right next to the bed. The furnishings are cheap, but you're compensated for any unpleasant impressions. The campsite is right at the end of the runway, separated only by a road, so when you take off, the planes fly over your head at a height of just 100 m. During the day they fly every 5 minutes, in the evening the breaks are a bit longer, but it goes on like this until midnight. In the morning you're back at it before 6 a.m.!
