I am 1/2 Italian 1/2 English so I have no gripe with the Italians and have no problem with foreign food and as you would probably guess from my roots some Italian food is probably my favourite. All the above said I have to tell you that if you are planning going to Italy or Sicily then whatever you do... more

We stayed at this hotel following a late booking on the internet. The hotel is advertised as a 4 star, but this is a vast overstatement of the actual facilities, 3 star at best. The reception desk was friendly and efficient and spoke good English. Our room are quite roomy and, while being quite comfortable, was looking past it's best.... more

Rather like a previous correspondant, we were also apprehensive about this holiday having read other reviewers' comments. Am more than happy to say though that we were very pleasantly surprised. The hotel was very clean and the staff were all very friendly. We had our room cleaned & bedding etc. changed every day but agree the shower cubicle wasn't the... more

We are well travelled and this is the first time we have complined.

We have two children who liked to join in the entertainment but couldnt understand the language. Our saving grace of the holiday was the... more

my husband and i have just got back from costa verde, we were so disappointed , it says in brochure that it is on the beach , its not , but a short bus ride , we paid extra for sea view, we got sea view but looking across a motorway first, , the food was not for english although... more

if you dont speak french dont bother going here because if you are english you really are not welcome and it beats me as to why this hotel is featured in an english brochure. the hotel itself was really nice and the amenities were good but it is in the middle of nowhere and you are not able to escape... more
