Würden wir wieder buchen.
Pros:

Das Restaurant mit Frühstück, Abendessen und Service war perfekt!
Der Sandstrand ist etwas eng mit vielen Liegen. Der "Felsenstrand" ist sehr spektakulär.
Das Design des Hotels und insbesondere der Gartenanlage ist sehr stylish, durchdacht und auf sehr hohem Niveau.
Das Hotel ist sehr schön gelegen mit Blick auf Syrakus. Mit dem Auto etwas entfernt - ca. 20 min. Das Hotel bietet auch ein Shuttleboot an.

Cons:

Am Pool gab es zerrissene Auflagen bei den Liegen. Es gab zerbrochene Blumentöpfe. Dies sind kleine Mängel, aber bei einem Hotel dieser Kategorie ist das nicht nötig.
Das Personal an der Rezeption war im Gegensatz zu allen anderen etwas kühl und distanziert.
