The hotel has a great location between Ragusa and the resort, offering spacious locations and a cool, peaceful atmosphere with internet access. However, the room experience was tainted by the stench of sewage until midnight every night from Friday to Sunday, and the noise from the family above made sleeping impossible during our stay.

The hotel offers a clean and modern room with good air conditioning, albeit the beds were two twins pushed together. The staff seemed multilingual and made an effort to assist, with various services available. The location was convenient for independent exploring despite some temperature discomfort among non-Italian guests. Dining options varied, with some issues in food availability, but a scenic terrace was enjoyable. Overall, a comfortable stay with a range of amenities.

The hotel is situated in a convenient location for independent travel, making it easy to access various places using public transportation. The rooms were adequately cleaned daily with fresh towels, although the room in the village was more basic than expected. The service, while friendly and welcoming, lacked some facilities and expertise. The on-site dining had a decent variety, but some items needed extra preparation. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money with peaceful surroundings and adequate internet access.

The hotel's location is fantastic for independent travel with easy bus access, singer entertainment in the evenings, and proximity to beautiful cities in Sicily. The rooms were small for three adults, with limited seating and a single small window overlooking the bar, providing nightly entertainment until midnight. The village location led to some encounters with ants on the way to certain rooms.

The hotel was in a quiet location, with clean, bright, and airy rooms offering excellent maid service. However, the room was very small for 3 adults with limited seating and only one small window. The service was friendly, especially when explaining the all-inclusive options, but there were challenges with language barriers during the holidays. The location was perfect for independent travelers, with easy access to transportation but had some issues with odors. The dining experience provided a good view but lacked variety in the daily options. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers basic rooms with all necessary amenities, facing the pool for a comfortable stay. The service includes helpful tour assistance and customized dishes on request. The location is lively with sports fields and entertainment, though it can get loud. The dining experience offers authentic Italian pizza in a greenery-surrounded terrace, but food availability might be challenging. The facilities are decent but nothing extravagant.

The hotel is set in a huge village-like area with cozy 'villas' accommodating multiple families. The air conditioning in the rooms was excellent, the maid service top-notch, and the beds incredibly cozy. However, the dining options could use a bit more variety. The location is ideal for exploring beautiful cities in the south of Sicily independently, with easy access to transportation. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly service and convenient travel options.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very quiet and directed down a slope, giving a unique layout to our stay in Rooms 771 and 772. The rooms were quite basic, but the surroundings were serene. The service was a blend of wanting to innovate while maintaining traditional practices, though the language barrier was a challenge. The location was vibrant during meal times due to a hosted tournament, yet evenings were tranquil. The dining options had some variety but lacked consistency. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.

The 'village buffet' hotel offers basic but comfortable and clean rooms, ideal for families of three. The service throughout the resort is excellent and very friendly. The location is perfect for independent travel and close to the beach bar. Dining can be a bit of a challenge at times. The facilities are well-maintained and provide a decent experience overall.
