Melilli Beach Resorts from RM372

"The star rating on this property by various sources appears way too high. The rating and name and some photos imply it is a luxurious full service property. It is not. There is no one at the front desk from 10am to 8am. The street noise level, at lease in some rooms, is very loud. I was surprised the room did not come with a noise machine and ear plugs. One source stated airport shuttle - no such shuttle - they call you a taxi. The room itself is very very basic - nothing luxurious. "

"The breakfast was outstanding, with a very wide variety of fresh products. The staff was excellent across board. Denise was particularly helpful and hospitable. She gave great recommendations and was kind and patient. Kudos all."

"We stayed here for two nights and were extremely disappointed, especially considering this is supposed to be a five star property. Our first night we were put in a room where the bathroom had a horrid smell that spread to the entire room. The room was also on the same floor as all the cleaning staff which was very odd. They offered us nothing in return for this very disappointing night. Do not recommend staying here."

"Room Tired and needs uplift - paintwork, shower handle loose. Staff friendly and helpful. Great variety at breakfast. Restaurant a bit pricey."

"The location is great as it’s walking distance to many things. There’s a bus to the airport which you can catch across the street which is a plus. The breakfast was decent and the gentleman in charge was very kind and helpful. The rooms could use some upgrading as it was old looking and the bathroom smelled like sewer water. It’s no frills and comfortable but don’t expect amenities like a gym or room service. It’s a small boutique hotel. It was comfortable for our stay. "

"Bitterly disappointed with this hotel. On reading the website when booking it advertises sea, relaxation and comfort. However on arrival we were informed the pool, sea swimming and the dive centre were closed all of which open on 1st June as listed under the “services subsection” of the website. At the spa centre again the same story with the sauna, jacuzzi, Turkish bath and steam room all closed. On asking why “just because they are”. Presumably again open on 1st June. The hotel itself is a little tired being a conference / venue hotel that sprawls along the cliff edge. It is not in the centre or near Catania (7kms away) with a poor and sporadic bus service into the actual town. Taxis are available and Ubers can bring you back. The staff are generally very friendly and accommodating. Really there is very little to do outside of the “open / high season” here and we would not recommend this hotel for visiting Catania as the website is misleading in what you actually get. We met other groups and they felt the same with everything being closed. "
