This was a very nice hotel with a great pool area and a convenient location in Catania—right by the sea and close to the airport. The staff were warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay, which we really appreciated. However, we did encounter two issues. Although the property has a restaurant, the operating hours were not convenient for us, as it was only open from 1:00–2:30 p.m. and then again at 8:00 p.m. In addition, there was no access to the hotel’s beach in May; we were told it doesn’t open until June unless you’re willing to walk about 20 minutes down the road.
