Hôtels et resorts de luxe

It would be nice to propose at least a breakfast.

Hotel catalogato 4 stelle ... ma le camere che ci hanno dato lo facevano diventare un 3 stelle

The „Grand view“ Aetna side is not as described on the website. Nice and spacious though but the bathroom is too small and has no storage room for toileteries. Otherwise the room is equipped with everything you could wish for. The interior design of the rooms and the whole hotel is very tasteful. The breakfast in the garden with fresh and local food and the setting is a special experience!

Castello San Marco is a lovely hotel with "charming" (for which I interpret interesting and good quality design, with period features - not the average, sterile environment of chains) well equipped apartments (air con, power sockets, wifi, TV [if you ever needed it!], etc.). The pool is good, with an adjoining small restaurant for lunch. Access via a back gate to the hotel's private beach area (with lots of sun lounger/shade space). Spa is good, and worth a visit. Beautiful location - there were 2 or 3 weddings hosted in the grounds. Staff are incredibly helpful. Restaurant (breakfast and dinner) was good. Only down-sides were: CSM is quite isolated - 40 euro cab from Taormina (which is worth visiting); sun shades around pool are too small, so you cannot lie flat in the shade; there were already quite a lot of wines unavailable in the restaurant in late July.
