Breakfast well organized, complete, fresh, and tasty. Solid gym. Tennis court available. Private jacuzzi was a highlight. Room was clean and well kept. Overall value: excellent — 5/5.

Overall the stay was good. However, the staff at reception were not very friendly, hardly acknowledging you as you enter after a day out. The cleaners however were always happy and always said good morning. The breakfast was the same every morning, with only 3 hot dishes to choose from, frankfurter, bacon and scrambled egg. Very boring after a 10 day stay. You really need a car if you stay here as it is not near the town centre. The bus was ok but came very infrequently.

Castello San Marco is beautiful, peaceful and relaxing.

When you first walk in, it’s very lovely. The staff is excellent. The area with the beautiful pool overlooking the water the very nice private beach and the facilities are top notch and the breakfast is absolutely wonderful. They make you omelettes and pancakes, which is very unusual for an Italian hotel. Only a couple of negatives, which was the parking that’s not on the hotel premises, but you have to walk about 100 m outside the hotel and the soundproofing of the room. You can hear the people in the hallway outside of your room talking, which makes me think they can also hear us inside our room. Overall, though I would rate this as definitely a hotel that will not disappoint. And I will definitely return back.

Good property, nice staff, 10min drive to Ortigia city center. Convenient free self parking
