Second time staying here for one night pre early flight home, had the buffet dinner which we had earlier in the year also but this time although good had a much reduced choice, we had recommended the stay to friends also and told them of the wonderful buffet so was disappointed

If you want a quiet holiday, this is not for you! Lots of large groups of holiday makers, loud music at both sides of the site. No options for eating unless you opt for full board (only one bar snack available, toasted sandwich) and limited bar options (the bar near reception closes at 5pm). But staff are helpful and welcoming, and premises kept very clean.

Used for one night before early flight home to save the early morning drive across Palermo. Will definitely use again during next visit. The self service buffet evening meal is a very good value, with excellent choices for the money

This is a nice hotel, with very attentive staff, and big rooms. The beach is beautiful and the mountains in the backdrop are stunning. Outstanding sunsets. Close to airport and Palermo. Food is buffet and so hard to get excited about.

What a great hotel!! The staff is excellent and so helpful, from the staff at the reception desk to the servers at the buffet. It is a fun and friendly atmosphere of large and small groups. The decor is eclectic with a strong sense of design. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Beautiful views of the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Food was not good
We stayed here for one night. It’s a very large resort hotel so we didn’t do much since we were passing though in between other destinations and plans. The pool was basic and the large one was closed for some reason when I tried to take my kids. I did not go to the beach which looked nice. The biggest bummer was their buffet dinner (30 euro per adult). It was not good at all. Food did not seem fresh and reminded me of cafeteria food. The rooms were clean and comfortable though. Very loud at night with music.
Radha, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Everything was great, up until we needed a taxi to the train station. The desk lady just kind of pointed the right outside and said you can catch a taxi over there. But the night before, the other lady at the desk said it would be no problem to call you a taxi. So there you go. Then the taxi guy I got us to the train station gouged us around $40.00

Not a 4 star hotel
The room I was staying in was renovated and comfortable but its what I would expect from a 3 star. The common areas were run down and the restaurant isn't even open all day (I'm during the actual day not night). Staff were amazing though.

4/10 Fair

The prop was not well maintained. Inside it was clean but not welcoming. The gardens and exterior of the building was run down. Bars and dining was limited. Staff in the pizzeria was very friendly and the pizza was good. Unfortunately the atmosphere at the hotel was cold. Nice beach, don’t try to be there at sunset, you get locked out.

Does what it says on the tin!
It is what it says it is - a conference hotel. We stayed there one night because it is convenient (10 min drive) to Palermo airport but it was completely rammed with conference goers. The hotel reception and service staff simply could not cope with the volume. Bedroom was an odd layout and very plasticky but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. Located next to a nice looking beach but we felt this was more a transitory stop than a longer term destination. Couple of nice restaurants nearby.
Nigel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is a bit older but we got the impression a renovation is started. The bathroom needs also some renovation as the shower made the whole bathroom wet. Breakfast was simpel but okay. In the evening there is life entertainment and as you can hear even your neighbours when they spoke loud, you certainly heared the music of this entertainment. But overall the service was super and we slept good!
Meloeda, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The property is lovely, but the food is horrible, our room air condition didn't work well, and we notified the front desk, but nothing was done. Our room smelled like something died in the vents also complained and nothing was done. Great only for families, not couples. wasn't able to sleep due to all the kids running wild without supervision. I would not recommend to anyone.
Sharon, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Booked three nights stayed one- terrible hotel
Firstly the good - decent sized room for four Now the bad - absolutely everything else April is out of season so the area is dead… there’s no water in the pool, you can’t use the beach access. The hotel is a conference hotel and in no way family friendly. It was really noisy all evening and then we were woken by weights smashing around in the gym next door. I got up and went for a run asking the gentleman to ease up as my kids were trying to sleep, came back from a run and tried to use the gym which was locked with the same guy in. Asked at reception and the rude night guy said it doesn’t open until 8am… this was pretty funny as we both looked over and saw a bloke using it! Luckily the day guy took potty when I asked to reduce my stay to one night. My partner said she rates it the worst hotel she had ever stayed in… I mean I would go that far but I wouldn’t stay again. Went to Palermo and had a better experience

Uncomfortable Budget Hotel Claiming 4 Stars
My gripe with this hotel is that it has a lot of potential to be a nice resort—as it’s facing one of the nicest beaches I’ve ever been to—but it lies about being a 4 star hotel. 4-star hotels, at a minimum, typically have room service, vending machines for after-hours food, and if not, some other form of late night food option. Saracen Sands Hotels offers NO OPTIONS for food after 10pm, so if you get there late and you don’t bring groceries or food with you, you will have a tough time eating. Another pet peeve of mine is that the hotel is stingy with how cold they let your room get. It can’t be colder than 22 degrees Celsius. Most hotels allow up to 18. We were sweating for part of the night and the staff refused to override the code and bring down the temperature. I would’ve gladly paid more money for a cooler room. Long story short, when you arrive at the hotel, it looks nice. Sort of like a Hilton. But then you realize almost everything is self-serve (you even need to go to the hotel front-desk to get pool towels because they don’t have them available at the pools or beach), the rooms are uncomfortable and let lots of noise through, and it’s hard to find food after 10pm.

8/10 Very good

It is an okay hotel, definitely not 4 star as claimed. The room we were given was fairly basic, the furniture were old and out-dated, and needs upgrading. There was no kettle or any facility to have tea/coffee in the room. Beds were really hard and creaking, but we had two double beds in our room instead of one double bed, maybe suitable for family. Bathroom was okay, the cistern was constantly leaking, and the shower head had probably been there for ages, as we can see black discoloration, which could be harbouring Legionella, and can cause serious infection. Rooms were cleaned every day, fresh towels supplied. The pools were dirty and over crowded. Beach towels costs 2.50 Euro. One of my main complaints is that the drinking water supply was very limited, particularly in that hot weather it is important to drink plenty to avoid dehydration. Water was only available in the dinning area, with restricted access. The staff did not allow to fill up the water bottle. What a shame! Water is a basic human need and the hotel does not seem to care. Food was good, but became a bit repetitive, which is expected. Local white and red wines were for free, they were okay. The best part was the private beach, which was well staffed and the water was clean. We had a designated sun lounger so there was no hassle. The nearest train station was only 10 mins walk, and have easy train access to Palermo central. We used a taxi service of the hotel's contact, which was really expensive.
