Villa Sul Molo tra Siracusa e Catania

Great property and nice snack/breakfast selection. Location was great too - would stay there again!

Die Unterkunft ist mit dem Bus, der Catania mit Augusta/Siracusa verbindet, auch vom Flughafen Catania aus gut zu erreichen und liegt auf der Insel, direkt am Hafen. Im Garten blüht es auch noch im Oktober. Man blickt auf das Industriegebiet Augustas sowie auf die Iblea Megara.

Das Frühstücksbuffet bietet überwiegend abgepacktes Gebäck (Kekse, Kuchen, Cracker), dazu Fruchtjoghurt und frische Äpfel - aber das ist meiner Erfahrung nach recht typisch für Italien ...

Breakfast was self service in the dining room with re-packed selections. There were facilities to make drinks at any time. Palatial sized room with very large terrace, bed and bathroom. Very comfy bed. The property was of a very high standard with a small swimming pool. Free parking, easy walk into the town

We were not met by the host through various reasons (time of arrival etc) and managed to get in the property with help of the neighbour. Directions to the parking area would have been nice but we worked it out.

Wir hatten das große Zimmer mit Terrasse. Beides sehr großzügig, großes Badezimmer. Die Terrasse bietet einen Blick aufs Meer mit dem Marinehafen nebenan. In der Küche im Erdgeschoss kann man sich den ganzen Tag Snacks, Kaffee und Obst holen. Das Frühstück ist absolut ausreichend. Die Kommunikation war (fast) immer reibungslos und sehr freundlich. Der Bahnhof Augusta ist ca. 20 Gehminuten entfernt, geschickt gelegen für Ausflüge nach Siracusa und Noto.

Das Gelände könnte etwas mehr Pflege gebrauchen. Der Pool wurde nicht mehr gesäubert, vermutlich aufgrund der Nebensaison (Anfang Oktober).

Het appartement was heel ruim en schoon. Alles was aanwezig om je verblijf aangenaam te maken. In de zogenoemde snackcorner was van alles om te eten en te drinken 24/7 beschikbaar. Het ontbijt was heel eenvoudig.

The pre arrival communication was very good , and Giuseppe was due to meet us on arrival , but as we arrived 30 minutes early (after a 250km drive) , we got texted instructions instead and over a 3 night stay never did meet any member of the host or cleaning team. The villa is indeed large , internally attractive , but externally feels a bit crumbling , lots of dead plants in planters. I quite liked the outlook over the naval port , and the rooms were fine. (apart from mould on my shower door) . The location was good and we had three excellent dinners in the town in different restaurants each night , all within walking distance. Parking was easy on the street. Augusta was nicely not touristy and the locals were very friendly.

I booked here as a base from which to explore SE Sicily (and it worked well for that) , and because of the reviews and pool facility , but I note now that the most recent were from 12 months ago. We didn't use the pool , it felt almost in a basement surrounded by vegetation and no seating. Nor was there any seating on the upper terrace to enjoy the sun , the limited seating was all by the room with the hot tub outside but it wasn't clear whether it was communal or not and certainly the people in that room made it clear they weren't sharing. Breakfast was extremely basic and another guest said the coffee machine wasn't working. My daughter wasn't comfortable with security , the front door often left wide open.

Ik verbleef hier maar 1 nachtje tijdens mijn reis op Sicilië, hiervoor was het perfect. De communicatie verliep soepel, duidelijk in goed engels en vriendelijk. Ik kreeg diverse aanbevelingen in de omgeving. Parkeren kon gemakkelijk aan de straat en de ontvangst was vriendelijk. De kamer en het terras waren super groot en comfortabel. Heerlijk bed!! De bakdkamer ook super groot met bad én douche. Het was heel stil en rustig. Je hebt 24 uur per dag toegang tot de ontbijtzaal en daarin onbeperkt toegang tot water, sap, yoghurt, melk, cruesli etc. Wat bijzonder!

Iets meer schaduw op het terras zou het helemaal perfect maken
