Guest Review: The location was great, very quiet. There was a pool area (but I didn’t use). The room was spacious and very clean. Good quality free WiFi. I had dinner and there was a good choice and reasonably priced. Very varied breakfast menu. Would recommend
Guest Review: The staff were amazing. From Bruno at the front desk to the restaurant staff and the cleaning ladies, everyone went above and beyond. They were professional and smiling - and not in a fake way, but true to their warm, Mediterranean culture. In addition, the exterior design - most notably the pool and the orange and lemon trees - are the main asset. The restaurant was good, but not great. In particular the dinner menu could use a few more traditional no-frills local dishes. The haute cuisine approach did not fully deliver.
Guest Review: We started our 2024 in an amazing Place , “Virdamuri “. Warm Welcome by hosting of Lella and Andrea . Lella provided lots of infos during our 5days staying . Very spacious and beautiful Surroundings,with brand whole new apartment with “Etna “view . Can’t ask for even more 😀. Lella speaks very good German and English. Apartment is in a good size for 4 people with 2 separate rooms . Beds are very comfortable and big . Free parking in a location with plenty orange and lemon trees. Free Squeezed orange juice became my two kids first task of the day . My son even spent his 8th birthday over there with surprise cakes , thank you Lella. Easy to reach all the beautiful surroundings , ex : Taormina and Catania but you definitely need to have your own car to stay here . Pool was really clean and still can be used in Jan .
Guest Review: The hotel was very confortable, the space in the pool and around was very nice. The manager was great, always nice to us and available. We had a late flight and allowed to do a later checkout which was very important for our family. Highly recomend this hotel, only 10 rooms and big space and looks like is managed by a family were everyone is nice.
