When you can't wait to soak up some sun, head to Mondello Beach— one of the most popular seaside spots in the heart of Mondello. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Isola Delle Femmine Beach and Spiaggia di Vergine Maria.
You can stroll along Palermo Harbour for relaxing water views when you're in Borgo Vecchio. If you carry on walking you'll get to Palermo Cruise Terminal, Molo Trapezoidale, and La Cala for some more water views.
"Overall experience was great. Staff was friendly, professional and all around great.
Lots of outdoor areas to hangout and spend time outside.
Pool area was nice. Minibar was stocked with good options and the prices are not bad comparing to other hotels I've stayed. It was almost cheaper to drink from the minibar vs. The actual hotel bar. Pool area was nice but maybe in the busy season it could get growded.
Each room has Echo device with Alexa, so you can play music or get other information easily.
The room i stayed was clean and good but some things were little outdated and rundown, some USB charging ports by the bed was not working, the thermostat screen and buttons were damaged but i was still able to turn down the temperature, i just couldn't see the actual temperature reading.
But because the staff was so great and my stay was great, these things did not bother me.
TV channels are all in italian, or at least the 100+ channels i scrolled thru, so if you like watching TV during your stay and don't understand the language, i recommend to bring your own movies or tv shows.
I would stay here again.

"Great room - we stayed in the suite with terrace and it was fabulous! Enormous terrace overlooking the theatre piazza. Staff were really friendly and helpful… couldn’t have wanted more from our brief 3-night stay in Palermo"
"La Plage has magnificent views of the sea and the iconic Isola Bella. The breakfast buffet is delicious and the staff are friendly and attentive. Be aware that the beach is rocky and hard to walk on and it’s difficult to enter and exit the sea for a swim. It’s easy to get up to Taormina via the funivia (cable car) for a 10€ round trip. "
"Loved it here! Clean, spacious rooms, beautiful property with well-kept grounds, very friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend and would stay here again. "
"everything was fantastic. the front desk staff were amazing, every single one of them. The pool and beach were beautiful and just steps away. The breakfast was immaculate and delicious.I will definitely stay here again. Grazie. "
