Nice premises and helpful service
Nice location about 15-20 min drive from Syracuse town. Had some issue with a waiter serving the wrong items, but the hotel was kind enough to give us that for free, plus a nice bottle of wine that we had selected. Big pool area for both our hotel (the 4 star one, that Hotels.com have not updated yet) and the 5 star one. Great breakfast as well. Just miss the porridge which is more non existent all over Italy.

Resort stay AND/OR jumping off point
Excellent. Perfect jumping off point to enjoy historic Siricusa and especially Ortygia. Free parking and excellent free breakfast. 12 min to a car park that's reasonable and walking distance to everything. Better than staying in town where it's crowded and parking complicated. Helpful staff and lovely property if you want to relax for a bit.

An unexpected treat near Syracusa
This 5 Star Spa Hotel was magnificent in every way. The actual spa facilities were all world class, including amazing options for children. Breakfast was exceptional. The bartenders knew what they were doing. The only downside was location if spending time in Ortigia is a priority. The hotel offers a free shuttle or will arrange taxis...less than 20 minutes away. The staff was warm, professional and quite helpful.

Great Hotel, expensive meals
This is a wonderful hotel. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast (included) was the very best choice possible and all really fresh and continually topped-up. The free shuttle to a local beach and into Syracuse/Ortiga is a brilliant service. The swimming pools and sun beds are fantastic. You do not have to eat in the restaurant, but there is no where else walkable at all nearby. We found the food to be expensive for what it was - 15 Euro for just 6 small pieces of ravioli for example ! Sides all have to be paid for separately too. Don't let that put you off staying at this gem of a hotel, but do be prepared.

Make sure you know what you are getting
This hotel is in two parts and their website only really covers the other part - The "Wellness" hotel. That part is very modern and has excellent facilities that residents of both parts can use. However, the "Hotel" refers to the older part. One of the staff said that this is in fact only 4 star and its facilities would suggest this. The room we had was in fact a conversion of another, non-bedroom, type of room, maybe a conference room? The conversion had been done well but lacked a few details, most importantly on the safety side. There was no telephone and no fire sensor or break glass alarm point so if someone fell ill during the night, had a fire or an intruder, there was no way of contacting the staff without a 100 yard + walk. I raised my concerns about the lack of safety facilities and was told that it complied with Italian law. That maybe be the case but it is not what one would expect. Other major annoyance was the number of flies around both properties, being worst at the older part. On the positive side, we found the staff most helpful and friendly, willing to do what they could to make your stay pleasant. So, finally, Expedia should not be selling the "Hotel" as a 5 start property as we did not have a 5 star room.

Good facilities and excellent service.
The staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful. They genuinely wanted to do small things that made a difference such as setting up a breakfast table in the sun or ordering a taxi. They also found and looked after a wallet one of us left in the room by accident and everything was returned. So a big thank you from us.

Clean p- Modern Hotel
Nice clean modern Hotel with good facilities. Some bedrooms are apart from the main Hotel across a road -( beware when crossing as visibility is poor and cars drive too fast) The bedrooms in the separate accommodation are old and rather dated. However clean and well maintained. Advertised as a superior room with balcony - somewhat questionable however. A picture of theHotel showing a beach and sun umbrellas is rather misleading - Hotel is 5-10 minutes drive to the beach. The Hotel is some 20 minutes drive from Saracusa.. Roads in the area are extremely poor with numerous potholes and some unmade areas. If renting a car beware of these potholes which can ruin tyres etc.

Luxury Hotel with huge pool
Two sides to the hotel separated by a minor road. The 5* side had the huge outdoor pool, indoor pool, extensive gym and main hotel complex. We were based on the 4* side in the original hotel villa which was beautiful, clean and modern. We stayed in a family room which was fine for a family of four- room was air conditioned. Brilliant breakfast and good lunch options by the pool during the day. Great friendly staff but the best thing was the free shuttle service into beautiful ortigia which was perfect for evening meals. You don't want to be driving into Ortigia due to the traffic, so this saved significant taxi fares. Ortigia has many quality restaurants down winding streets and the harbour has done cool bars overlooking the super yachts

Perfect hideaway
Once you find the hotel which was on a beaten path, you'd be heart struck with the serenity and beauty of the sicilian countryside. One side of the property is traditional sicilian where we stayed at and very happy with. perfect and tasteful deco, comfy beds, decent sized bathroom and good toiletry. the other side of th property is the communal area, spa and restaurant. perfectly modern yet with an elegant italian spin. sitting outside the lounge area with a view of the nicely arranged garden and swimming pool sipping orange juice can't be more satisfying. breakfast is amazing with lots of selections. front desk is super helpful and friendly. she even worked late into the night helping us separate a large bed into two single ones as we reserved. Our group of five can't say enough good things about this 4-star hotel and 5-star spa property. Perfect hideaway for peace of mind and relaxation.

Quiet, relaxing break
An out of the way place for a B&B stay near Siracusa, with character and charm. We stayed in the old house rather than in the new apartments and chalets across the road associated with the brand new Spa facilities. Self service breakfast at the old house site had a wide selection of foods to suit most tastes. Used the old house pool daily-clean, quiet and deep enough for diving into. There is a shuttle service to a private beach 10 mins away-transport and entry at no cost. Room was clean, bed comfortable and shower usable. Complimentary bathing towels and air-con was a blessing. Room had a small balcony (no view) but no chairs to use to relax outside. There was however a nearby roof patio with fixed pergola and rattin furniture to use. Points to watch-literature confusing about the room fridge contents-suggested free but not so! Also evening meal needed to be selected in the morning and taken over at the Spa facility. The bar was also there so no convenient refreshments outlet by the old house pool. Transport to Siracusa needed to be booked well ahead of each visit. No complimentary hand soap in the bathroom so we used the shower gel provided instead. Menu was limited and relatively expensive-watch the two Euro charge for bread, which is not mentioned anywhere on the menus that we saw. Recommend that each room has a snagging list left in it for guests to complete for suggested improvements-for instance our shower door did not shut properly, which could lead to water damage.
