Virkelig dejligt ophold på Minareto. God værelser/huse og mange muligheder for både pool, jacuzzi, klippestrand, sandstrand. Top service og hurtig betjening ved både roomservice og på restaurant og bar. Søde og serviceorienterede medarbejdere. Rent og lækkert, smukt og roligt.

The Minareto is a very well-located resort with superb views of the ocean and Siragusa. Rooms/beds were very comfortable, although the decor tended to be somewhat gaudy/outdated. Staff was very helpful and friendly, and the location was convenient to the sites in the area.

This is a beautiful, peaceful place to stay in Siracusa as a base to explore all the wonderful towns nearby. The grounds and views are stunning. Great staff, wine and food selections. Its great to have a car to explore this region and even more perfect to have such an oasis to return too. Valet parking was included and incredibly prompt. We loved the private beach too!

We loved our stay at Minareto. The food was delicious at all meals, the staff were lovely and we enjoyed the spa. Surrounded by the sea, the views were beautiful with Etna, Siracusa and their private beach. Highly recommended! Would be nice if they could get a English speaking news channel like CNN!

This is not Siciliano food

So it looks amazing but terrible food, service and the beach was all right. Sooooooo disappointing of the meals. It’s an embarrassment as an Italian to eat at a place that provided this kind of food. You spend almost 1600 euro a night and the restaurant is an embarrassment to all Sicilians. I live in Canada, that doesn’t mean that I should get crappy food. I’m Italian by roots and I know good quality food when I have it. This restaurant is disgusting. It should be ashamed of itself for being in Italy. The pasta came with lukewarm eight rigatoni pieces for €30 … I mean, if it was a dish that I loved I wouldn’t mind spending… I don’t care about the price, but this was an embarrassment to every Italian Sicilian mother, or cook out there. Shame.
