Top Santa Lucia del Mela Hotel Reviews

Hotel Villa Belvedere

8/10 Good

"This hotel basically is 5 stars. I’m giving it 4 because our room was on street level and very noisy at times. The staff deserves 10 stars."

Hellenia Yachting Hotel

8/10 Good

"⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Value, Convenient Location, but Room for Improvement The Hellenia Yachting Hotel offers good value, especially if you’re driving and looking for a convenient base to explore Taormina and the surrounding area. There’s a convenience store and a great gelato shop nearby, although you’ll need to drive to reach the main beach area. The hotel has an impressive marble interior, though the decor is somewhat dated. My room was spacious with a comfortable bed, but cleanliness could have been better, and there was a faint odor. As mentioned in other reviews, the buzzer system allowing people in and out can be noisy. I slept fine with earplugs, but light sleepers may find it bothersome. Since I visited after beach season, the beach chairs had been removed, but I still enjoyed some sunshine on a lounge chair on the outdoor deck overlooking the ocean. Parking was convenient, although it was essentially a dirt lot, and I had to contact someone each time I entered or exited. Breakfast was good, not great, but convenient with a three-hour window each morning. The staff were helpful, though I’ve experienced friendlier service elsewhere in Sicily. Overall, a comfortable stay in a good location at a reasonable price. Improvements in cleanliness, noise, and facilities would help, but considering the value, I’m giving it a generous four stars."

Grand Hotel San Pietro Taormina - Preferred Hotels & Resorts

10/10 Excellent

"We would give this hotel 6* if it was possible. Everything from check in to check out was fantastic. The hotel and their staff are of the highest quality yet remain friendly, warm and welcoming. We came for our honeymoon and had the most wonderful time. We used the spa, ate at the restaurant, drank at the bar and were transported by the valets. Everything was perfect. We will be back. Grazie mille from David and Adam."
