Marina di Ragusa Hotels with Bars

We have stayed in many 4* hotels across Europe, (generally travelling with Tui), and so can only make direct comparison with previous experiences. We probably paid £700 more than normal so we had high expectations. The facilities and location of the hotel were good. The reception and waiting staff were very friendly, helpful and clearly work hard. The facilities are modern and well kept. The gardens and communal areas are well maintained. We visited outside of the school holidays, so did not experience many families with children, however the only area truly for adults only is the smaller pool. On arrival you are given a pool/beach towel - if you want to change it during your stay it will cost 2 Euros each - not excessive but not what we expect. The food can only be described as mediocre - limited salads, no dressings, main courses somewhat limited in choice although on a few nights there was a chef preparing dishes to order (some fish/pasta dishes - he was clearly passionate about his food). No fresh juice at breakfast (just squash) and if you like cake you will be fine. Halfway through our stay a coach party of 40-50 adults arrived. Unfortunately, all the waiting staff's attention was diverted to attending to them at the expense of the other guests. We do not blame the waiting staff at all, but someone in management should ensure there are sufficient staff to accommodate the increased number of guests. The speciality cooking was absent on these evenings. The rooms are modern and generally clean. Our only complaint would be that the sheets were not changed at all during our seven-night stay. Conclusion - won't be going back, could do better.

The Kamena Residence is located in Marina Di Ragusa about 300 meters (328 yards) from the sea. It is a brand-new structure, consisting of 38 furnished vacation lodgings having 65 square meters (700 sq. feet), with a voluminous kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, attached to a spacious porch and a private garden for guests on the ground floor, while on the first floor there is a panoramic balcony with a seaside view of the most beautiful tourist sites on the Hyblean coast. Kamena Residence is few km from the most important late baroque cities in Val di Noto, some of them declared, in 2000, World Heritage by UNESCO: Ragusa Ibla, Modica, Scicli, Ispica, Comiso. Marina di Ragusa is full of archaeological sites to visit and has one of the most important Museums in the south-east Sicily.
