Reviews Hotel Citta del Mare***

09/06/2008 Last year we stayed here and this year we'll be back. Good entertainment. Very lively people, those Italians. We stayed here with our 17 years old son and he also had a good vacation. The meals and the restaurant weren't that great.

20/08/2007 Very large and beautiful domain, in case you don't speak Italian, the hotel service is bad and they'll ignore you. You have to book superior otherwise you'll end up in a hectic "schoolrefectory" including all bad mannered Russians. The food is not that good but you won't be starving and there is a lot of choice in case you don't see anything you fancy within the main courses. You will get "a room with a view though". Gorgeous surroundings. The trip to Palermo was unforgettable and cheap as chips. A rental car with Avis is the best option voor people with guts who can drive the Italian way but like to see some of the area. The shows are below standard and neverending and completely in Italian (they repeat themselves every week). The drinks at the bar are expensive (+/- 3 eur a coke). This hotel seems to be focussing more on the local people and foreigners are of minor importance. Daily animation is okay. And a lot of stairs for the slide and babies!!

21/08/2007 What is already written by the people before me is mostly right. I would recommend "superior"too. As mentioned before it is a "village" with a lot of movement and animation,but the food and the service were quite good after all (in superior class)! The Russians didn't "bother" us (the few couples with children that were there were even a bit timid); what, on the other hand, you can expect is large groups of people that run to the buffet as if it's their last... Big gardens and many swimming pool, private shuttle bus service to the (small) private beach.
