Hotel Vento del Sud

The location was easy to reach and the parking was close. In early September you could even park on the street if you wanted to. It's close to the touristy parts but not particularly close to the beach. The standard of the room was good and bed was relatively comfortable by Sicilian standards. Breakfast was OK but they didn't let you take even an apple out with you. There were pegs and a washing line on the balcony, we were able to wash and dry loads of our clothes.If you do go to San Vito lo Capo (which I wouldn't recommend) then you have to get the Cous Cous. Its famous for cous cous and the cous cous I tried was excellent.

The hotel has a really strange setup. You have to be buzzed into the building, you can't leave the hotel without handing in your keys. Whenever we asked about this they would just say it's policy. That being said, most of the staff were very friendly. The balcony had a cover on it and was a little cramped with a view of the street, so we only used it to dry clothes. The hotel is probably much better in the season, we visited in September when they'd obviously downsized - for example, only one breakfast area and bar instead of two. Other hotels we've visited in Sicily gave us a bit of an introduction to the area and provided history, context and places to go. We didn't receive this here. Overall, I would not recommend visiting San Vito lo Capo, it feels like a fake, hollow, touristy place with no culture, just tourist shops, tourist restaurants and a big beach. If all you want are these basic things then you'll enjoy it but I found it be much worse than places like Cefalu, Palermo, Taormina, Naxos.

Fine location. -we had a late flight and the hotel had a shower that we could rent so we could be on the beach until we had to leave after booking out.

- the room was not ventilated or cooled down when we arrived. it was extremely hot and stuffy.- View from balcony was zero, absolute nothing.- the hotel sold parking more expensive than it would have actually cost if I had paid directly to the parking lot.

Nice breakfast, near the beach , bars abd restaurants

No pool

Great location, friendly staff, tasty breakfast

Staff was very helpful and kind. The room was beautifully furnished and spacious and the location was really perfect and centric to facilitate access to services and the beach is very close.The service provided is environmental friendly and the hotel offers reusable beach towels service. There was also a small and nice balcony with a drying rack. Breakfast is served in a cozy area with homemade produce and cakes, with attention to allergies of guests.

The bathroom was a bit too tiny and as we were three guests and we were assigned the room with eased access for people with disability we didn’t find it comfortable to use (the toilet seat was too high, to gain some space there was no bidet and we struggled in using the doors for the shower). At breakfast it would have been preferred to serve gluten free produce in single dose and packages to be very careful and really sure that there is no contamination.

Disappointing

The design, colours and furnishings were awful. We needed to upgrade from the first room we booked as it smelled of smoke.

Disappointing

(1) we paid for 4 rooms in one building and when we arrived, the person at the reception apologized as they had no availability so they gave us another room located in another building. When we complained, they said that it was an upgrade because it had a “balcony” but the truth is that the room was awful, did not look like the pictures of the rooms that we had originally paid for, and the balcony was for only half person standing. (2) when we were about to leave, they tried to charge AGAIN for the full price as according to them, they had not received the money from booking. i had to show my bank extracts and discuss for 10 min. (3) there were ants in the room

location, friendly and helpful staff, breakfast and comfortable room.

nothing really

Small little hotel, very comfortable and spacious room. Extremely kind staff, exquisite breakfast. Great location, just off the Main Street with all shops and restaurants, close to the supermarket and definitely not far from the beach.

Please tune the piano! ?

Everything was excellent. The room was new and fully furnished, the location and the staff are perfect

Clean and pleasant and close to everything Cristina was very helpful right through our stay arranging transport things to do and recommending places to eat

No kitchen limited breakfast but that is a minor complaint

Nice clean rooms lovely staff and al fresco breakfast

The breakfast was served outdoor and it was very pleasant. I loved the pastries from a famous local bakery and the choices.

Friendly and kind staff, bad management

Our room was so dirty, after doing couple of steps bare foot my feet were black ? When we arrived there was cigarettes on the balcony (we don’t smoke- so not ours) …not to mention the toilet was not cleaned- it was disgusting to see someone’s skid marks ??Poor receptionist went to clean the room herself- we just went out for dinner!The next day we weren’t even offered at least the water bottles to be comped…which were €1 each - no even a little gesture - there was no apologies from the management. I work in hospitality and if there such a massive fail - we won’t charge the customer! !!!! Also there are two buildings in this hotel - the pictures you see are from the renovated part - but they sell for the same price the old ones as well - so you arrive and what you saw online - it’s not what you get.Definitely not going back there, not worth the money

Friendly and helpful team
