Our only regret was we couldn’t stay for longer…
2-night trip

10/10

The hotel is wonderful, set in beautiful grounds, very close to an enormously long, albeit unguarded and not well-maintained beach. Convenient for trips to Taormina and Mount Etna, but set on a quiet and secluded area. The restaurant on site is nice, and the one across the road by the beach is great, with friendly staff, good food and reasonable prices.
4-night trip

10/10

The hotel is beautiful and super enjoyable, just like the beach. This was good, as was the restaurant, because there is nothing good around that is nearby. That's why you live in the hotel and it's very nice and enjoyable.

This hotel was exceptional in every way, the staff, the service, the room, the breakfast. Simply everything. Well done Castello San Marco for thinking of everything !
3-night trip

8/10

Lovely quiet setting. Very close to the beach. Great restaurant. Beautiful gardens. Very helpful and charming staff although, by the pool, sometimes hard to find staff or towels. A pack of hotel information in the room would have been useful - restaurant times/bar times/telephone number for reception & room service/local facilities etc.

we really enjoyed our stay in this superbly renovated castle. World class accommodation in a spacious room, exceptional swimming pool. The restaurant Giardino di Pietra has to be tried for a gourmet dinner while the Wine Bar Il Palmento can not be missed.
3-night trip

10/10

We had a wonderful and unique stay at this renewed castle, converted to a boutique, high standard hotel. Beautiful and classy garden for breakfast included and luxurious dinner if booked. Amazing large pool overlooking the beach. An easy, 20 minute drive from Taormina. One point had to be taken off, sadly, due to the queen bed mattress which felt small and a bit squeeky and not perfect maintenance of bathroom. Other than that - truly a magical experience reflecting the vibe of romantic Sicily.
4-night trip

8/10

Hotel and grounds are beautiful, service was wonderful. It’s far from Taormina - transport is very expensive and can be delayed in the busy summer. Lighting in the room lounge area was subdued, and little things like bathroom and tea supplies were not replenished. It should be possible to have a fresh towel at the beach and pool if needed. These are little details but prevented a 5 star rating for this 5 star hotel.
3-night trip

10/10

What a treat to be able to spend a few nights in this beautiful oasis. The minute we arrived. Marco greeted us and The lovely ladies at the desk were welcoming friendly, helpful, professional. Every inch of the property was beautifully maintained and gave us a great sense of being in historic Sicily feeling like royalty . The restaurant which we ate at two nights was a surprise ,Michelin star  food, cleverly and tastefully each course was delicious. Wine list was full of beautiful Sicilian wines and a showstopper was having a very special cocktail made right at our table. I have had the good fortune from working so hard my life to stay at many four and five star hotels around the world and this will not disappoint . Our room was so comfortable, tastefully decorated & beautiful I didn’t want to leave the room . The beach was just steps away, and we swam in the beautiful Ionian Sea , the hotel is a destination, (we did go winetasting during the day at Benanti an excellent tour and tasting) hotel definitely worth a stay if you need to relax and want to be pampered -oh, and the swimming pool was magnificent along with serving cocktails and food poolside.
