Beautiful property located 10 minutes from Ortigia and the city of Syracuse, best to have a car. Grounds are impeccable and you can easily spend your days by the enormous pool. Breakfast is great and staff is pleasant. Rooms are super clean we smelled the cleaning products as we walked in. Air condition unit seems to need some maintenance, but still worked. If you are looking for great beaches and have a car, this is the place, within an hour or less you are at the isola delle correnti (southern most point of Italy) or San Lorenzo beach and Fontane Bianche all beautiful beaches. Recommend to anyone looking for places to explore or to simple soak up the beautiful weather on this pristine property.

Beautiful, but not a great location
We chose to stay at this hotel because it was just outside of town and had a pool. The ground of the hotel are beautiful, and the pool was perfect in the extreme heat. My only issue was the location. It is a 15 minute drive to the center of Siracusa, and if you don't have a car, you are forced to pay 30 euros each way. There is no public transportation, and it is very difficult to get to any of the nearby beaches on foot.

Could have been better
Having booked late, the only room available was not in the main hotel. It was clean, tidy and spacious but, we think, little used. The smell in the bathroom from the drains was awful until we ran some water in the shower room to fill the u-bends in the pipework. Because we were not in the main building we had no Wi-Fi in the room. The staff were attentive and helpful, the pool area was busy at the weekend with locals but otherwise very quiet and peaceful.

Perfect hotel provided you have a car
We loved the hotel, the staff, the pool. You will need a car as the hotel is 5min south of Syracuse but worth the drive to be in a so relaxed hotel. Breakfast was perfect, the only down side was the tv had no english speaking channels but I told this might be fixed for 2013. Francesca was a great help with lot's of local information. If you want a pool this is a A1 pool and with lots of sunbeds and couches around the pool. Enjoy

Väldigt lyhört och oljud från vägen utanför. Framgick inte att restaurangen var stängd vilket medförde ett långt letande efter andra alternativ. I övrigt bra.
