Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in a quiet residential neighborhood, within a short walk from Vulcano town center and the mud baths. The rooms were nice but lacked outdoor space, and I missed having basics like shampoo and body wash available. The service was excellent, especially Giorgio who went out of his way to help us with a charger. Dining options were limited, more like a continental breakfast, but the fried fish was a stand-out choice. The location was ideal, not too close to the town center but still within walking distance, making it convenient to explore Vulcano.
The hotel is in a perfect location with an easy stroll to shops, Port Levante, the beach, and mud baths.

My stay at the hotel was mixed. The staff was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to accommodate our needs, even arranging for breakfast earlier than usual so we wouldn't miss our hydrofoil.
