Top 10 Villa Augustus Hotels

The location is fantastic, some 30 m high on a cliff facing a Cristal clear sea. The salted sea water swimming pool is gorgeous, very wide, deep enough on one side to allow jumping from one of the two springboards. A private ramp and stairs led you to the sea level, where small platforms host sun beds and umbrellas. We choose to book a cheaper non sea view room (with private bathroom) and were given a large room at the third level, facing Lipari harbour and the sea. Stunning view. The breakfast is fine, continental and Italian, most of the many bakeries are home made, genuine and tasteful. Something to improve in the service, but take it easy, you are on holiday and not on a business schedule. The light lunch restaurant at the swimming pool has a nice choice of salads and typical Sicilian dishes, arancini and others. The room is wide, the bed is comfortable, the air conditioning works well and it is silent. Lipari town with many restaurants and a small archeological museum is within 15 minutes slow walking, however you can rent a bicycle, an electric motorcycle, and taxis operate around. My best experience, hope to be back for many years in future.

Hotel Ravesi is a gem in Salina. The sightseeing is simply breathtaking, but what really made me happy was the stuff and their incredible and warm welcome. The hotel is located in Malfa area, with shops, restaurants at walking distance. We spent 3 days at the hotel, we’ve experienced the quietness, relaxing atmosphere, accompanied by amazing food and lovely events organised in the hotel throughout the day. I will definitely book by next summer holiday for July 2024.
