Great Place to Stay with Family
We stayed in a self contained apartment/Villa at the residence. The staff were extremely helpful and there was daily entertainment for our 6 year old. There was a theatrical play every evening, an on site restaurant, bar, tennis courts, Sauna etc. Perfect place to relax with the family. The private beach was clean but a bit stoney. There was free use of boats, surfs etc. There are excursions to the neighbouring islands. Highly recommended.

Villaggio immerso nel verde
Molto bella,pulita e curata la nostra stanza con vista sul mare (zona Lipari), bello il verde ben tenuto,stupenda la spiaggia con ombrellone e sdraio assegnati per camera,carina la piscina di acqua salata anche se piccola,molto buono il cibo del bar della spiaggia (panini,arancini,insalatone),gentilissimo il personale alla reception e nei locali,manca però una doccia di acqua dolce in spiaggia/piscina. Degno di nota il centro benessere dove con soli 8€ a persona abbiamo fatto un bellissimo percorso relax (sauna,vasca idromassaggio e tisana) e il ristorante/pizzeria Le Terrazze,dove abbiamo gustato una buonissima pizza e dell'ottimo pesce spendendo davvero poco. Unica nota bisogna prenotare perché i tavoli a disposizione sono davvero pochi. Abbondante la colazione anche se ne ho viste di più fornite. Pecca del villaggio la sua conformazione, a degradare dal monte verso il mare, conformazione che costringe a fare lunghe salite a piedi continuamente, non rendendolo adatto a persone anziane o famiglie con bambini piccoli. Altra cosa da segnalare il fatto che essendo fine stagione la navetta non era più disponibile, boutique,minimarket, discoteca e ristorante grill già chiusi,centro benessere in chiusura...sarebbe da avvertire chi prenota in questo periodo che molti servizi non sono più disponibili..un vero peccato!!Animazione un po' carente,forse perché ormai fine stagione.

Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis
Wir haben 2 Nächte gebucht und fühlten uns sehr wohl. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, der Service gut. Die Preise für Getränke und Snacks waren relativ preiswert. Der Pool etwas klein, aber ok. Kostenlose Liegestühle und Sonnenschirme direkt am Meer haben dafür aber entschädigt. Im Hotel waren sehr viele Familien mit Kinder. Am Tag und am Abend gibt es Animation, auch für Kinder. Einziges Nachteil waren die Zimmer, die zwar sauber, aber sehr klein waren. Für längere Aufenthalte sollte auf jeden Fall ein größeres Zimmer gebucht werden. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Per gli amanti del mare
La struttura è un po datata, ma in buone condizioni generali. Tutto funziona come dovrebbe, ristorante, bar, spiaggia attrezzata, piscina, ecc. Particolarmente bella la spiaggia attrezzata che si raggiunge attraverso un passaggio sottostradale ed è ad uso esclusivo dei clienti della struttura. Il mare è favoloso, spiaggia con ghiaietta e acqua trasparente.

Idéal pour un séjour en famille face à la mer
Bel emplacement face à la mer et aux îles éoliennes pour cette résidence club très bien conçue malgré les contraintes de terrain en pente. Environnement très agréable avec une dissociation de la circulation piétonne et voiture. Plage privée mais un peu petite (pour l'affluence du mois d'Aout en tout cas) et piscine (pour enfant principalement). Personnel très agréable et disponible, avec des efforts faits pour nous accueillir en français. A recommander.

Buona struttura ma servizi pessimi
Ho prenotato due camere tramite Expedia, 1 con un adulto e un bambino. l'altra con 2 adulti e un bambino. Risultato: all'arrivo in Htel trovo che mi hanno assegnato due camere matrimoniali dicendomi che un adulto può dormire tranquillamente in letto matrimoniale con bambino e nell'altra camera il bambino di 3 anni può dormire nel lettone coi genitori. Servizio pessimo! La struttura è carina e abbastanza pulita.. per il resto c'è tanto di meglio.

Manutenzione della camera scadente
Al nostro arrivo ci é stata assegnata una camera con persiana senza maniglia e porta a vetri che non si chiudeva pertanto era impossibile chiudere la camera. Inoltre il ventilatore a soffitto era inutilizzabile per mancanza di manopola per accensione e regolazione. Ci é stata offerta un'altra camera ma non abbiamo accettato poiché era troppo opprimente. Per quanto concerne il resto del villaggio era secondo le aspettative.

La residence est toute neuve avec des logements climatises tres bien equipes et une superbe piscine, residence ideale pour des vacances en famille, les enfants jouet dans les allees font du velo et sont en toute liberte. le seul inconvenient est que la residence est situee dans une ruelle etroite d acces pres d un des 2 lacs, la plage est moche et sale. Nous avons eu un grand appartement pour 7 personnes avec 3 chambres, 2 salles d'eau pour nous 2 et notre huit a ete tres tranquille
