Excellent location, below average service
Posted 10 Jul 2022 on HotelsThis place has so much potential - the location is perfect for day trips to Erice, the coast and vineyards, and the views are unbeatable.
Unfortunately the rooms are tired, the air conditioning not very good, the owner disinterested in guests, and despite being nearly empty they still charge extra for a room with a view! Breakfast was not good value, and despite advertising being a pizzeria, the restaurant didn’t serve pizzas the night we were there.

Large hotel with extensive green site , large pool
Posted 23 Sep 2016
Pros: Large , light and well run .
Cons: Labelling of access from S115 . Better attention to room furnishing as outlined above . A few more restaurant staff because of the coach trippers .
Location: Usual tourist trip to the Valley of the Temples and main town . Did not go to the suggested beach , what we saw did not encourage a visit .
Good experience overall , light and nicely furnished bar , good range of drinks . Large quiet room with views out toward the sea , and an excellent set menu with a wide choice of hors d'oevres at a very good price . On the downside , staff kept very busy with large number of coach trippers . Very difficult first time access and poor labelling off the S115 with loops from this road not well labelled and we needed a couple of goes to access the turn off . At the Hotel a map was provided but even that not very clear . Had to ask for an extra chair and bedside light for the room , only one of each provided and we were staying 3 nights .

Splendid view and good facilities
Posted 17 Jul 2015 on HotelsWe stayed for one night here. The view is beautiful and it stands out. The place is quiet and the pool area is really nice. Restaurant is also good value for money

Stay at Baglio Santa Croce
Posted 23 Jul 2013Excellent stay and nice setting. Good food and excellent facilities. Pillows and beds need an upgrade because they are not comfortable at all.

A nice stay in a unique room
Posted 12 May 2013 on HotelsWe stayed only one night in one of the traditional rooms but we liked it. Two small windows (one was on the floor!) with wooden shutters and a little balcony you could crawl out onto for a fantastic view of the water and countryside. It was a bit warm in the room so maybe too much in the summer but it was still cool enough in May. The only irritating part was the shower which was just a curtained off section of the bathroom. Shaving in this is a nightmare unless you like wet cloth sticking to you as you try to balance on one leg and not end up in the bidet! Breakfast was nothing special but at least there was meat and cheese. They keep the grounds of this hotel well maintained so it has lots of charm and smelled clean everywhere.

Nice retreat with super views!
Posted 18 Jun 2012 on HotelsGreat location to visit sites like Segesta, Erice, Marsala, and Trapani, high above a bay on NW coast of Sicily. Out of town, no other dining options than the hotel, which was ok but not fabulous tho' the restaurant views were breathtaking of sea and mountains in the distance. Good wine, fair prices. Our booking made over a month ahead, was for a "traditional room" - when we arrived we were told none was available and we were put in the "new wing". Pleasant tho' small, nice garden view, good bath and A/C (which wasn't yet working, due to our early June arrival, and honestly, not yet needed). We were relocated the next day to a traditional room - very quaint, stone walls, farm-like, but darker and no A/C which could be a problem in the later summer, tho' breezes flowed thru the non-screened windows (had bars, kinda' like a prison cell, a bit disconcerting). The bath was more primitive than the newer room, water flow in shower barely strong at all, nor very hot. Charming, but.....

Not like the photos
Posted 25 Mar 2012 on HotelsWe based our stay on a photo and comments from the Eyewitness Travel book, showing a lovely old stone room with a carved beam ceiling. We asked for, and were given, a room in the old building. Imagine our surprise when we were shown into a motel-white room with no ambiance at all: paper-thin walls, plastic drinking cups, a cracked toilet seat... I speak Italian, and mentioned that the room wasn't like the picture we'd seen, and that we were a little disappointed by that. Our receptionist shrugged her shoulders and agreed.
That said, it's fine. The location is terrific for exploring
Erice, Segesta, even Selinunte. The restaurant is average and convenient.
