Rated 4.4/5, this property delivers the logistics of a destination wedding without the scattered coordination.
This is one of the best hotels on all of Sicily. Clean and tidy, and nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Good parking and security and a good base to explore not just Marina di Ragusa but the whole of Sicily’s southwest. I have stayed three times over the years and its just so consistent and agreeable all the time. Professionalism is important in the Hotel industry and this is just a good well run place that I will return to over and over again.
