Hôtels et resorts de luxe

Would highly recommend staying here. The food was excellent but if you manage to finish all courses you would probably pile on a few pounds!!! Very peaceful with great views and friendly hosts. It is worth learning to speak some Italian if you want to get the most out of your experience.

Zu allererst ist zu sagen, dass das gesamte Personal extrem nett und zuvorkommend ist, manche auch lustig! Der Zug daneben ist zwar nicht zu sehen, aber stark zu hören. .. Man gewöhnt sich aber scnell daran. War kein wirkliches Problem. Einige Zimmer sind bereits etwas abgewohnt und benötigen kleine Reparaturen. Die Kleinigkeiten machen es aus! Und bitte das Zimmerschloßproblem lösen. Die Sauberkeit war absolut in Ordnung. SOnst... Tolles interessantes Essen. Wenn die Haupt-Karte täglich oder zumindest 2 Mal in der Woche getauscht werden würde, wären wir nicht nur 3 mal essen gegangen, sondern immer. Ist nur ein Anstoss der vielleicht schwer durchführbar ist. Sonst ein toller Urlaub! lgPP

Absolument parfait

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.
