    7MonicaPosted on: 10-1-2024

    The room was very close to the beach

    There was no cleaning stuf to remove the sand. The cabine was small and the price to high

    4DritanPosted on: 10-21-2023

    Booked as I had early flight next day, it is reasonable close to Airport, 15min drive. Free parking on site.

    Paid for Studio with complete kitchen, was given just a room with no kitchen. Asked reception after I checked in why was I given different room to one paid, answer was Booking.com allocates automatically rooms when booked online, nonsense basically. He did offer to change the room which I declined as I was there for 1 night only. Place or wooden huts should I say as they are made of timber, and it is full of sand everywhere, including wardrobe, fridge , bathroom. Not cleaned properly, a hoover could have done the job, but then again it is a beach hut. You can hear next door all conversations and noises. Was woken up by new arrivals at 1 clock in the morning and I had to get up at 5 myself.

    Staff were friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was good. Amazing simple cabin right on the beach and close to the town. Wonderful chili plants and cacti in the gardens, clean rooms and clean communal areas

    Great value for money, nothing to complain about

    4MarkusPosted on: 9-22-2023

    Friendly staff at the reception. Nice location close to the beach.

    Very old and not well maintained holiday-village. Ni WiFi possible. TV didn´t work . Very basic interiour.No blankets. Very loud in the night, party started at 3 a.m. until 5 in the morning. Bad restaurant.Poor breakfast. For 110, 00 € / night too expensive, poor value for money.

    3BeagittePosted on: 9-18-2023

    Poor

    The hole night there was a beach party next to our bungalow. At 6.30 a.m. the drum machines were shut down. Didn't sleep at all.

    7PatrikPosted on: 9-7-2023

    Location amazing beach

    There was a power outage and they had no generator for the rooms . So there was no AC . Loud music from a nearby bar until 3 am

    2GregorPosted on: 7-23-2023

    The beach is close.

    There was a big problem with electricity in the village, which they could have let us know before we arrived.They told us after the check in that there is no electricity. When we were in the bungalow we also realized that there was no water. They would refuse to offer us any other accomodation or provide any other help. No chance to get a refund no other help. I definitely wouldn't recommend or return here.

    8JosephPosted on: 7-18-2023

    The location was very convenient and it is beach front. The staff members were super nice and helpful.

    They do have wifi, but unfortunately it did not reach my bungalow. The restautant food is a bit disappointing, especially knowing the food culture of Sicily.

    9BenjaminPosted on: 7-5-2023

    No villa or bungalow on the property is more than 5 minutes from the beach. We stayed in one that overlooked the sand and the surf and it was stunningly beautiful. The grounds are gorgeous with lots of plants, flowers, tree cover, and beautifully painted buildings. The restaurant provides a wonderful changing menu on a daily basis that emphasizes Sicilian cuisine and charges prices that are in line with what you would expect if you were grabbing lunch/dinner/breakfast in Catania proper. The staff are welcoming, kind, thoughtful, and professional. I came with my mother (65 years old) and my sister (30s) and we couldn't have been happier with our interactions with the employees. Furthermore, the Villiago employs a group of high school/university aged people to provide entertainment to the guests that varies from water aerobics, volleyball, dancing, karaoke, etc. for the adults and games, crafts, or other activities for the children. It's truly a wonderful group of people who work there.

    The rooms are small and showing their age. Although we were perfectly happy to stay there, we got the impression that the facilities were built a few decades ago and recently went through a several years of decline. Our toilet leaked and our room had a musty smell that was difficult to get rid of. With that being said, several of the buildings had new roofs, our bungalow had obviously been repainted recently, and there was a gym and several canopies in the process of being installed on the grounds to expand the areas near the restaurant and likely meet guest requests. Overall, we felt the price we paid was still a bargain compared to the quality of the staff, food, location, and overall experience. The upgrades to the facilities show that in the next few years, our complaints will likely be put at ease.

    we almost missed our flight because of staff organized our transfer from Hotel to Airport

    6JernejPosted on: 11-7-2022

    Location right on the beautiful beach, staff is really friendly and helpful, breakfast included, free supervised parking on the premises.

    kitchen/kitchenette is poorly equipped, there are too few sockets in the app, it is not really regularly maintained, so it feels a bit outdated.

    7HamishPosted on: 10-31-2022

    Staff were very friendly and helpful. Facilities and rooms old but well maintained. On the beach. Food was good.

    Very quiet but it was out of season.

    8BeverleyPosted on: 10-14-2022
