Exceptional service, (the hotel manager even personally delivered our luggage to our rooms), and everyone from the front counter staff to the pizzeria staff were phenomenal. The entire hotel was well appointed, modern and clean. We were only there for 1 night for a wedding next door, but will definitely be back, and I can not recommend them enough. A

Amazing views and good public transport to get around the area. Lovely, helpful staff. Good restaurant. Very pleasant stay and would recommend. Well worth a trip to Il Padrino Restarant in Forza d’Agro village - local bus goes there. Unusual pool hours - not open until 11:00 am. Next door hotel service area quite noisy - disposing of bottles at 06:45 am.

Lovely friendly hotel
The hotel was very welcoming and the staff are extremely helpful. It is a little out of town so having a car is useful but the hotel has a courtesy bus and they are more than happy to take guests into Taormina or to the beach. The pool area is clean and well maintained. The pool is quite deep and not particularly good for children but there weren't any staying when we were there. The gardens are well laid out and there are several small areas with sun beds so we were able to find somewhere quite private to relax and sun bathe. The rooms were very clean and nicely decorated. We had to ask for assistance setting the temperature of the air conditioning and once this was done the room stayed pleasantly cool. Our room had a balcony with amazing views over the sea and down the coast. There was a wide choice at breakfast and plenty of it.

This hotel was everything i wanted! My room was so dreamy with the most beautiful view to the ocean. Everyone were so nice and helpful. I really think it was the most beautiful room with view i ever had. The room is a walk to tr beach but they have shuttles to more popular beaches. The only cons are that the internet is not super fast and the air conditioner is not super strong. Theyboth working though and for this price i think they did amazing job.

Excellent Location & Views
Location, location, location. Room with excellent view over the bay. Nice balcony and room itself was fine. Bathroom was a little disappointing with mould etc. in the shower and a smelly floor drain - quickly fixed by pouring some water in to re-establish the u-bend seal. Nice pool and terrace. Did not try the restaurant as we arrived too late. Not sure how effective the air con is, however, it was not too hot during our stay.

Hotel Cystal Sea, Taormina
Lovely Hotel overall. Clean rooms, lovely staff. View over Toarmina has to be seen to be believed. Breakfast was a of a very good quality, and loads to chose from. Only down sides are that you need a vehicle as its very isolated, even the beach is a 20 minute walk down some very steep climbs. The restaurants evening choice can be a bit limiting, so eating out for dinner is required. Parking is limited at busy times, yet you can park down on teh acccess road. Be warned if you have a vehicle and need to refuel before heading back to Catania, DO NOT refuel at the Q8 garage in Letojenni. We got charged 1.92 Euro per litre (petrol) as we went into one of two pumps, the guy had the nozzle in the filler before i had got around to talk to him, i saw 1.92 Euro on the pump and questioned him why it was not a per advertised on the board at 1.49 Euro, his reply was "no understand", well its a scam. They charge nearly 50 cent a liter more to refuel you car. Only negative on a great time.

Great hotel, extreme hospitality!
When we arrived, we were upgraded to a lovely room with full sea view! The concierge couldn't do enough for us! He even called the hotel next door to find out if there was entertainment that night (and there was). There is no entertainment at night here. There is a pool bar and a restaurant on site. We ate here 2 nights in a row. Breakfast was included in the room price. The food is very good. The only thing that upset me greatly was the dining room manager who constantly barked orders at his staff, seemingly berating them at every turn. They were actually running back and forth to the kitchen - all of them! They were like spinning tops. It was continuous and the staff didn't look happy and he didn't look happy! Consequently, it seemed to take over one's focus as all eyes were trained on him and the poor staff who tried to please. It was very disruptive to those dining. He was even there at breakfast! He was always running around and was upset that we had sat at a table for 8 as we didn't see a table for 2 at the end of the breakfast room. We were quickly transferred to it by him! When we didn't have a reservation for dinner one night, he threw his arms up in the air in an exasperated manner which upset us. We ate at the restaurant in the hotel next door the next evening. Were it not for the little man in the dining room, the hotel would have been perfect!

Excellent view of the ocean
The hotel was accessible if you had a car. The rooms were comfortable but our bathroom had some evidence of mould in the tub grouting. Parking was a bit problematic as there was little space available. The staff were courteous and helpful. A very good breakfast was provided and the hotel had a varied dinner menu. Overall a positive experience.

Beautiful setting
The staff are excellent as is the food. The setting is beautiful overlooking the Med. The main problem is that you can't walk anywhere and there is no entertainment at the hotel. The main bar wasn't open at all, so drinks after dinner was not an option. There was a free shuttle service either to Taormina or Letojanni however the last pick up was 18:00 so you were left to get a bus or taxi if you wanted to stay later. The pool was only open between 11:00-18:00. The showers were in poor condition and need updating

OK HOTEL
We stayed here for 2 weeks in September and it was an OK hotel. Fabulous location in the countryside only 5 km from Taoramina, with the most spectacular views of the sea. Nice and quiet too. We got the bus everywhere, only 30 euro for a weekly ticket and you really get to see the lovely villages in the area. There is a shuttle bus at the hotel but it only runs 2 or 3 times a day, and if you ask if they could pick you up or drop you off at a different time, they simply say no!! The hotel next door is called Baia Taormina, much bigger than Crystal Sea but still a 4 Star. We noticed their shuttle running at least every hour and also late at night, so will probably stay there next time if we come back to this area. The swimming pool area is lovely and the only complaint I would have is that one day when I ordered drinks they wanted to give me a plastic glass. Yet the day before I had a glass one.(different staff member). Every day I saw other guests with their drinks in a glass . We didn't have the drink in the plastic glass and after that always went to Baia Taormina for an aperitif as well as a nightcap when we got back in the evenings. When we were leaving we had a late flight and they gave us another room to use for the day, which was brilliant. Some of the staff are great, but some aren't! One day the air con broke down so I went to reception and asked if I could borrow a fan. The man on reception asked if I had tried opening the windows !!!! Very sarcastic.

A well maintained budget hotel ... with a view.
This hotel is obviously older, but has been well maintained and the rooms are clean and comfortable. Every room had a balcony, and the views were wonderful. The hotel pool was small and pleasant and the restaurant had good food. Breakfast was very good with a wide variety of things to choose from. Finding the hotel was a little difficult, you can't trust your GPS or you'll end up on top of a mountain. Look for signs. It is right next to a much larger resort style hotel.
