Good location and walking distance to the beach. However, I expected the room to have a kettle and tea bags

Staff are amazing especially the receptionist, food and service are also good,private parking its very safe.

We spent a wonderful week in Atlantis palace hotel. Kindly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, good and enough breakfast. Pizza is perfect! The pool was with perfect clear water every day. Highly recommended!

Lovely hotel with a fantastic swimming pool. Reception staff were wonderful and food in the restaurant was a reasonable price.The pebble beach is nice with sun beds and parasols free for guests but I didn’t bathe in the sea because it was a steep entry - difficult with the pebbles but it was nice to relax by the sea then swim in the pool. Bus stop only 200 metres away with just one bus to Taormina which leaves at 10am returning from Taormina at 4pm but it is a request stop so need to ask the reception staff to ring and book it. The bus fare is about 5 euros return so very good price.Train station is about 2 miles away. We walked from Giarre Riposto station downhill to Riposto then level walking along the coast road to the hotel but got a taxi back when we left. That was 10 euros so not bad. Train fare from Giarre Riposto to Catania is 3.10 euros and the bus fare from Catania station to the airport is 4 euros. All very easy. The hotel could arrange a taxi all the way to the airport for 70 euros.

Pool beautiful and clean and bar area very luxurious and pretty. Pizza is delicious and breakfast is nice. Staff very friendly and helpful. Location is a bit secluded but private beach is nice and if you have a car it’s fine as not far from Giardini-Naxos and Taormina. Painting the balconies and front of building would be fantastic as it’s not as nice as the rest of the building but for the price we paid I cannot complain. Thank you for a lovely stay

The staff were nice and friendly, the location was convenient, however there were a few of issues which made a difference: 1- most importantly, the air conditioning was terrible, I could barely sleep during my stay in the hotel, upon complaining to the staff there was no improvement. Aircon is the most important feature of a hotel in my opinion as it can ruin your holiday, in this case, it did 2- access to the beach is free, however, external customers have preference to take the first three lines of beach beds, if you ask for one of the front line beds they’ll refuse even if there are plenty of free beds because “they are reserved for paying customers” as if we were not paying customers? It’s part of the hotel, not charity, this in my opinion is 3- the pool closes at six, if like us, you like to explore during the day and expect to come back to have a refreshing end of the day in the pool then this is not the right hotel for you. I did not get to enjoy the pool because of this. It’s the middle of summer and they close the pool when the sun is high, not great. 4- kayaks and pedalo boats in the private beach are very expensive, over 10 pounds an hour which is more than we experienced anywhere in the east coast of sicily and there is no benefit to hotel guests 5- gym was closed I would not stay there again.

The hotel is very spacious throughout including the rooms all with balconys. It is also situated across the road from its own private shingle beach. On site parking and a lovely swimming pool are just a few of the onsite facilities. We enjoyed our week here very much.

Amazing staff. Comfortable hotel. We had half-board accommodation and both of them (breakfast & dinner) were very, very good. The beach is just across the street. Big parking place.

Really enjoyable stay. Staff were great helpful friendly pleasant and humerous.Lovely pool and entertainment. Thanks to all for a really enjoyable stay , will definatly return again next year. The grounds were impeccably maintained we got great photos around the grounds and a private beach thrown in.

The rooms were clean, well maintained. The staff was very friendly and cooperative. The hotel provided a wonderful breakfast and had a awesome pizzeria on site. Location was great view of Mt. Etna and the Med from our balcony.

Well located with access across the road to the beach.Pool is of a very good size.Views of garden, mount etna or sea,Good buffet breakfast.Wifi access only in reception.

Beautiful hotel! Clean, comfortable, and modern.

Don't be put off by first impressions - this is an ugly concrete hotel from the front, but a really lovely one from the back, with a great pool, plants and flowers and a fantastic pizza restaurant. Staff are very friendly, but are possibly prone to saying yes without quite understanding what you are talking about.

We stay in this hotel for 6 nigths with 2 childrens.There is a lot atraktions for children and nice swimming pool.

We stayed here for a week and had a relaxing holiday. Hotel was attractively situated with Mt Etna smoking in the background. It has a good pool and restaurant/pizzeria and it's own private beach though personally I preferred the pool. Rooms were basic though provided an adequate level of comfort. Staff, both reception and restaurant were very friendly and helpful.

Hotel was nice in a good location north of Catania, but away from city. you need a car to get around. Staff was great, rooms were simple but comfortable, breakfast was very nice, dinner at the pizzeria was also good.

Staff were outstanding, always a smile and very helpful. Rooms were good, a bit dated and the shower setup coud be improved. The gardens were lovely and the food was good. Swimming pool was nice, large and clean. We enjoyed breakfast each morning and dined at both the Pizzera and main dinning room, each had plenty of variety and the food was good. Definitely need a rental if you want to get out and explore. Overall we enjoyed our experience and would consider staying there again.

Staff is not very cooperative, mainly on breakfast. Internet only available at lobby, but didn't work.

We went early May. Staff were friendly and helpful, rooms clean. Fantastic view of Etna in the background. Private beach was open but no facilities, pool closed, and on at least 2 nights the hotel bar was closed. You need transport if you're staying here!

Beautiful hotel, beautiful location, beautiful people. We just wish the showeres were a little bigger.
