The Staff at the property felt unfriendly and disturbed by my presence. They were always making comments and did not even Stand up from chairs when talking in person. The bar tender at the swimming pool did not answer questions with good manners. The waiters at breakfast and dinner noisy and always making tables while people were still eating.

Lovely room bed sheets shower all excellent . Brek good and indoor barman v friendly . Have to have sit down lunch needs a snack bar . The car park has a barrier that smashes down on your car we were not impressed with this . Good location for bars and bus to Taormina . Lovely beach and views of Etna . No sunbeds on beach fort end of sea even though weather 25. Loud American tour group sat around pool one afternoon completely oblivious everyone trying to relax.

A great hotel, with great access to the beach, very accommodating staff and a lovely pool area. The breakfast was delicious. The rooms are clean and spacious. All for an incredible price. Highly recommended

Have stayed in this hotel many times and it has always been an excellent experience

I normally stay in the Hilton next door to this hotel but it was closed, so I decided to stay here instead. What a lovely surprise, lovely hotel, fantastic service, on the beach and loads cheaper than the Hilton with breakfast included! Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

Perhaps a glamourous hotel in its day, it is now a little tired. The shower is very small and bathroom needs updating. Beautiful views from large balcony over pool and beach beyond. This is not a bad hotel, it just feels a little soulless and in a different era.

we really enjoy our stay at this Hotel .very well situated right on the Ocean and when we got there they offer us to up grade my room with a balcony and a view on the Ocean which was very much appreciated. the staff are very nice .really had a good time .too bad we got there the day after a big rain storm which left alot of damage in the street and store in the area but the municipality took care of cleanning the road very rapidly

I just love it here . I cannot say a bad word because I have had one of the best times in my life. Of course nothing is perfect however this place offers the most laid back and chilled experienced in the most beautiful setting with the best beach ever !Im coming back as often as possible .

Beautiful hotel from the outside and from the inside. It could use a little updating but a marvelous building nonetheless. First night we had some problems because the AC in our room wasn't working properly. We had booked 4 rooms and we (by chance) got assigned the only one that had problems. They however moved us to another room without any issue. The stuff was incredible, kind, attentive, fast and couldn't do enough for you. The breakfast crew and the pool bar crew were fantastic. We didn't expect the charge for the umbrella and chairs at the private beach but it wasn't a big deal any way. Staff was great, hotel is very nice, location is fantastic with plenty of options to eat across the street (I suggest Valentino) and a mile or so down the road in Naxos. Great choice overall.

To my great fortune, the Hilton next door to the Hellenia, where my conference was being held, was fully booked. The Hellenia is beautiful to see, inside and out, quietly elegant, with an atmosphere of calm and gentility. The quiet extended to the room: Mine was a double with two balconies overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and the handsome terrace/pool area below. I slept well and enjoyed the atmosphere. The breakfast could have been a bit more creative. Two things prevent me from giving a five-star review, however. I found the front desk personnel to be stand-offish, and seemingly preoccupied with more important business; this is in marked contrast to the overall friendliness and helpfulness of Sicilians in general. And despite the claim of offering wireless connectivity, there was no internet service – wireless or wired – during my five-day stay at the Hellenia. "Is broken" was the only response I received. I asked whether it would be repaired soon. The reply was a shrug.

The location of Hellenia Yachting is it's best and worst feature. Worst because it's a little difficult to get to at first and there is very little parking at the hotel. I had rented a car. However, the people there, including the other guests who had cars, were all very cooperative. Periodically you find yourself being called to move your car so someone else can get out. But, this is an excellent location in that they are right on the water. You have a choice of hanging by the pool or just walking down a flight of stairs to the beach. Also, plenty of nice restaurants within walking distance and the bus stop is just around the corner. Food was very good, I like this hotel a lot.

very nice place; good location, with nice pool and on the beach; very charming design, tasteful and of good quality; only the wifi didn't work; but certainly recommended !

Five (10? 15?) year ago it was "top of the line". They still charge you this money, but it is not anymore. Staff is OK, but no more than this. I needed to break 20EUR bill to leave tips for the barman, but girls at the front desk could not help. I asked where I could do it, they sent me to the bar which was already closed. Result - poor barman got no tips...So overall nice place - but do not expect miracles.

I loved this hotel, the staff, pool, beach and facilities were great. However, our room was pretty small and the view from the balcony was a not so great hotel next door plus an obstructed of the sea if you stood right at the end. However, for some reason they kept our passports on reception while we were there until we asked for them back. The guys behind the bar make much better cocktails than the girl!

Hellenia Yachting is one of the best hotels Giardini Naxos has to offer. However the resort and therefore the hotel is a poor relation to Taormina and it's hotels. If you cannot afford the prices of Taormina then this is a good compromise, a very comrotable hotel with excellent access to the buses that will take you into the centre of Giardini Naxos or further on to Taormina.

My husband and I were very pleased with this hotel. It was clean, well maintained, and the view from our room was breathtaking. The service was excellent, everyone was friendly and extremely helpful.

We booked a "Deluxe Room" for a recent stay just before the Christmas holiday. The room we received upon arrival was wonderful. A three room suite with balcony, and on the beach ocean view....We were very pleased with the room accommodation, hotel service and staff attention to our needs. This will be a repeat for us in the future!

The Hotel had a first impression look but that's where it ended, due to restriction on weight allowance we did not take our computer - the Hotel only had Wi-Fi available and no computer or even a laptop explained by them as Terrorism prevention!

Really enjoyed the hotel, the decore was traditional Italian style which was beautiful. The rooms were very spacious and extreamly clean. All staff spoke very good english and were very helpful,polite and chatty. It was a lovely walk into Naxos only about 1.5 miles where there were great shops and fantasic restaurants. Overall, i would recommend the Hellenia Hotel to anyone and i will definately be returning.
