Salina Island, Sicily hotel rooms at the Independent

"The staff was wonderful. Fluent in English. Had great recommendations for things to do and see. Great breakfast too. Beautiful pool and surroundings with beautiful sunsets. "

"Great location, easy walking distance from the port, shops and town. Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable room, which was cleaned everyday. A nice breakfast was supplied every morning, which was great. Lovely surrounds to the property including a pool, which would be great in the summer time! Overall, a fabulous property at a reasonable price."

"This was the highlight of our trip in Sicily. Everything was perfect, even the little cat that came to say hello on our balcony! The pool was lovely, and the sunrise views from there simply amazing. The only snag was that the pre booked "shuttle" was nearly 30 minutes late picking us up from the port. Apart from that, perfect. Would recommend and certainly stay again"

"This hotel is our favorite. We have been in Sicily for a month. Everyone was pleasant. The food was great."

"The staff were exemplary. Service was excellent. The grounds and view were amazing. The food and service was excellent. The Michelin restaurant was amazing with local wine pairing. I will return. It was a magical stay"

"Stunning property with incredible architecture and location on cliff side next to see and overlooking the town. Wonderful staff and owner that offered to drive me to the ferry when the taxi was not showing up on time. Good menu for dinner. Great breakfast and unbeatable setting. The only problem was that although they say to preserve water, it takes 10-15 minutes for the water in the shower to get warm. Investing in a new water heating system should be top priority. Even so, I would love to stay there again."

"Great staff"
