A perfect blend of beauty, warmth, and genuine hospitality.
Pros:

Our stay at Musciara was simply the best we’ve ever experienced. This family-run resort is filled with heart and attention to detail — everything is immaculate, beautifully maintained, and designed to make you feel at home. From the moment we arrived, we felt truly welcomed and cared for. The private beach, the tasteful atmosphere, and the genuine hospitality made every day unforgettable. We have traveled a lot, but Musciara stands out as something truly special. This place has a piece of our hearts, and we cannot wait to return.

Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay! The location is perfect, everything was spotlessly clean, and the beach is stunning. The staff is truly first class – friendly and professional. We rented an apartment and got exactly what we expected. Highly recommended

Cons:

The only small downside was the steep staircase in the apartment. It wasn’t a problem for us, but it might be challenging for older guests.

Divine holiday at the beach
Pros:

This hotel is so nice, the overall aesthetic is spot on. Every other room is even nicer than the previous. The hotel is the perfect mix between beach holiday and cultural hospots closeby.

Cons:

Really nothing, everything was divine. The only 2 suggestions I would like to make is only to improve an already fantastic visit, is to maybe add some more options to hang (coat rack) or lay down (shelves) in the room.

Musciara is a remarkable hotel in a lovely place
Pros:

From the meticulous attention to detail to the beautiful decorations, attentive staff, and amazing beach, everything was truly exceptional. The owners, the enchanting magician Laura, and her daughter Francesca treated us with great warmth and hospitality. A big shoutout to Costanza, Fabio, and the fantastic Argentinian couple working at the bar.
The location is superb and within walking distance to the major areas in Ortigia. I really wish we could stay longer in this wonderful place!

Cons:

Very little. We would expect that filtered water will be offered to guests at the hotel. With minimal choices for lunch on the menu, the restaurant was on the pricier side (which was to be expected).

Amazing stay at Musciara
Pros:

The hotel and its location is superb. The rooms are very comfortable, clean and serviced daily.
The private beach and its facilities are exceptional. It is cleaned on a on a daily basis and offers clear water and is safe for swimming.
At breakfast there is plenty of options to suit all taste.
Finally, the hotel management run a fantastic establishment and their professionalism filters down to their staff who cannot do enough for you.
Thanks to everyone at Musciara, we had a fantastic five night stay. Alan & Melanie

Cons:

The only thing I would say is that the bedroom could do with some drawer space but other than that, fantastic !!

Pros:

Em tudo existe a supervisão de Laura, nos mínimos detalhes, desde os mimos no quarto , a louça do café, almoço e janta, sempre diferentes e elegantes.
Os funcionários sempre solícitos e atentos.
O lugar com uma pequena praia com areia é um espetáculo a parte.
Poder jantar debruçada sobre o mar e depois tirar as sandálias e caminhar na areia é impagável!
Um paraíso que nos abraça.

Can’t wait to come back! There’s nowhere else I’d rather stay!
Pros:

I absolutely loved the warmth from the owners and her daughter, Francesca! They made us feel like family! The location was perfect! We rented a car to get around but if you don’t rent a car, there’s a short taxi drive you the piazza. This boutique hotel has the most magnificent beach that exudes elegance, privacy & perfection!

Shhh ... this is a magical place!
Pros:

If you want to press pause on life and escape to the tranquility of a boutique hotel for grown ups look no further. Influenced by instagram but at my age very cynical, it's absolutely as it looks on their website and social media coupled with the most relaxing atmosphere and friendliest of staff. Sunning Ortigia is a short walk away overflowing with history, restaurants and cafes but please eat at the hotel too. Beautifully prepared fresh fish with an Etna rosé for lunch or dinner and the Ionian Sea lapping on the terrace. Can you tell we loved it? Special thank you to Francesca - it's on our list of special places to unwind and we will be back!
