This hotel lived up to our expectations and more. We cannot single out anything because it was all just perfect from the cleanliness of the whole hotel, variety and quality of the breakfast, location of the hotel, comfortable beds, we could go on and on. Rest assured you will not be disappointed. From the moment we stepped into the hotel and were greeted by Julia, we knew that this was going to be a wonderful stay. Julia and her colleague, Rosanna the two receptionists were friendly, kind, efficient, helpful and couldn't do enough for you always with a smile on their faces. All staff, without exception, were always friendly and helpful. We stayed in a Superior Room with a seafront balcony which was worth the extra money and gave us a lovely platform to sit and have a drink, watch the world go by and see the amazing fireworks for Ferragosta. We would recommend that if you want to use the beach the hotel has a link to the Billionaire Beach Club 700 yards away and the hotel can pre-book this for you. Whilst this is not cheap, 40 Euros a day for two beds and a parasol, it is well worth it as there is also a bar serving a range of food. You can collect and return free beach towels from the hotel reception each day. We should also mention that we used the taxi organised by the hotel and if you require a transport or around the local area, we would recommend that you use this family run taxi firm, thank you Luca and Carmelo. If we holiday in Giardini Naxos again (maybe next year) we would not hesitate to stay at the Nautilus Hotel again - Thank you everyone at Nautilus - ciao!

Parking is very difficult but the hotel offers paid parking- I would recommend going straight to the hotel and go for that option. We had a room with sea view and if possible I would go for that option, it’s really what makes this hotel so special.

The staff is super friendly and the location is great, next to the sea (keep in mind there’s a road between the hotel and the sea). It’s also very easy to take the bus to Taormina and avoid parking in a small town in busy high season. The hotel is great if you want to stay close to the sea and have the option to visit Taormina.

The balcony seating would have been better with cushions as the metal heats up. A coffee machine in the room would have been nice.

Location, staff and breakfast were all great.

It’s not cheap given that it has no hotel facilities eg pool etc and that many rooms look into a light well or similar, but it’s very good just the same.

Superb service from friendly staff. Thoughtfully and tasteful designed and furnished rooms. Breakfast well above expectations. Very good location. Very good communication.

NOT THE HOTEL’s FAULT. With hindsight it probably isn’t the best location for a family (with no car) as there isn’t much to do. Taormina is far more lively and we spent a lot on taxis getting up there and back (if you do get taxis don’t use Uber you’ll be ripped off) . If you hire a car then good luck with parking as the road doesn’t seem to have much parking along it. One small note: we were not a fan of the taxi company the hotel uses. The boss, Carmelo is nice enough but never stops talking and at times tried to show me stuff on his phone while driving - he actually turned around to show us!! After that I always sat in the front so he wouldn’t do that again. And his son (who took us to the airport) is a dangerous driver. He was doing 120kph on a road limited to 100. This was while rummaging round in a bag of sweets that he kept eating - often not paying much attention to the road. He is not cut out for the job and the sooner Carmelo realises this the better (hopefully the hotel read this and pass it on). The son also asked us why we had brought the pickup time forward by 30 minutes - like he was really put out by it. Sorry but that’s none of your business! Sorry to the hotel that I’ve taken up review space to moan about the taxi company but in a way it reflects on the hotel if the company they use puts their patrons in danger.

The hotel is located half-way along the promenade, with a public beach in front of it. It’s handy for local restaurants (lots of nice places to eat) . Staff very friendly and helpful - they can’t do enough for you. Rooms cleaned every day with fresh towels. Breakfast was excellent. The hotel is perfect for people who want a relaxing beach holiday.

The room and the bathroom were spacious and sparkling clean. Breakfast was amazing, delicious and big variety (from scramble eggs and bacon to torta della nonna!). The hotel is exceptionally located right in front of the beach, close to restaurants, cafes and a very convenient parking. Best of all was the staff, who was lovely, attentive and always smiley. Can’t wait to go back!

Cannot fault it.

Excellent location on the front road looking over the sea. The surrounding scenery is fabulous with lovely traditional restaurants and nice bars on the doorstep to enjoy in the evenings. Staff were so attentive and helpful. Breakfast has superb choice on offer, fresh produce each morning.

Parking is a bit tedious.

Remarkable hospitality here! The receptionist, Julia, helped us find a parking spot, book our tour to Mt. Etna and a boating excursion, and also gave us some great tips for restaurants in Taormina. She was one of the friendiest staff members we encountered during our trip, and made our stay truly unforgettable.
