Very nice holiday
After checking reviews of this place I was a bit worried but overall we did enjoy our stay. We are family of 4 and stayed 7 nights in bungalow. Accommodation was spacious and clean however very outdated. AC only in the bedroom so kids who were sleeping in living/dining area complained of a heat. This is a sport complex which is available to the public so at the weekends quite busy. But plenty of sun beds so no issue with finding a spot. Big swimming pool, however swimming cups are necessary. (Can be bought at reception) Beach is rocky which we actually liked. There is a sandy beach 15 min walk but it is very busy. Breakfast was very good, plenty of choices. Reception staff very nice with excellent English. There is a restaurant in the complex. we only tried pizza there which was nice. Free parking and possibility to use tennis courts without extra charge.

Check in 3pm and Check out time is 10am. This is so bad, normally should be 12 to 2pm. Because of the restaurant that is open in the courtyard of the hotel at night from 7:30 in the evening until night, it is not possible to be comfortable in the hotel and the hotel area is practically closed after 7. But the rooms are very clean and nice. And the sea and mountain view is great. The hotel restaurant offers many good tasting dishes for lunch time

This property has some reasonable photography on website but being here is not quite the same. I had 2 rooms as my wife and I were heading off elsewhere for work whilst the children stayed with grandparents. Room 1: Clean but very basic. Air con unit broken. Spent 1 hour to try and get sorted but had to move rooms in the end. Room 1.2: new room had air con that worked. Still basic. Shower broken but replaced with hand held head. Had to move the crib and luggage without any help. Light coming off ceiling - exposed wires. Room 2: air con working. Room basic. Noise from bar next door kept everyone awake as it backs on to it. Noise from air con unit making high pitched noise periodically in middle of the night. Shower head not working properly, water falling out in a straight line almost against wall. Hot water in both rooms available but shower will swap from cold to hot and back at random. Broken glass on private terrace wall. Misc: - told by reception, as residents we could reserve beds by pool from 0900. Life guard arguing it’s 0930. - unable to get lunch until 1400. Only able to get deli snacks for lunch from 1230. Not ideal for children. - told I would be charged €15 per day for a crib for 6 month old baby (€105 total). Could buy one and burn it when leaving for less…and preferable. - restaurant, 1 waiter taking orders for every table. Takes ages to order. - was told on 1 day breakfast had finished the croissants for day despite it being 0930 (finish 1000

Around a rough area but the propert itself was great and when you were in it you wouldn’t suspect. Expensive shop across the way but coffee shop was good . Love that the resort provided bikes so most days we would ride into Mondello beach for the beach , atmosphere and shops (get your groceries here if you need any) . We used the tennis court , pool area and the ocean front and it was all great. Balcony in the bungalow was also a highlight as it was nice for privacy when we wanted some sun. Bungalow had a proper kitchen which was amazing as we like to cook for ourselves on occasion. NO BASIC ESSENTIALS so had to buy a lot of basics like things to wash up dishes . Had breakfast included each day which was very handy and pretty decent .

Property and bungalows are beautiful and great for a family with the small children and very safe and enclosed. We were there end of May and none of the amenities were open yet except the pool and breakfast. Staff was very friendly. Not the best location if you wanna go to other cities in Sicily without a rental car. As others said would be nice if information being printed in multiple languages.

Beautiful water, nice pool and friendly reception
Stayed in the bungalow with a great view of the ocean from the roof top terrace...hotel reception staff are excellent and will help with any query. Really friendly and helpful at reception. The private beach is excellent for snorkelling and sunbathing. The water is absolutely beautiful and there are plenty of sun beds. Bungalows are basic but have everything you need and the rooftop terrace is a nice place to have a glass of wine at night. The pool is nice and very big and close to the ocean so you can use both quite easily. No real restaurants around so you have to go in to mondello which is a 10 minute bus ride or taxi ride (€20 /30) so quite expensive..you can also try the scooters for some fun but the drivers and driving is the worst I’ve ever seen. A trip to Palermo is also worth it. We went to the 4 quarters as a starting point to walk around. Great vibe and very unique area. would recommend going to the side streets and sample the street food. Overall la Marsa was perfect for us. The reception staff, the rooftop bungalow, the beautiful water. Only draw back is all the restaurants are in mondello.

Everything was perfect at La Marsa! Excellent hotel, we had all we needed, many facilities that we couldn’t get to use them all, privileged with sun and sea. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with everything. The hotel also has bikes which you can borrow. The best hotel experience ever!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We stayed for 7 days in early September in a bungalow with a nice terrasse + a roof top. The aircon worked well. So far so good. The interior was pretty run down - the furniture ancient, the walls crubling, the bathroom moldy. There was no daily cleaning as advertised & as is typical for any hotel. The trash bins were emptied on day 1, 2 & 6 and the bungalow was superficially cleaned on day 3 only. This was particularly disgusting when you have to collect toilet paper in a bin. The kitchen was not really usable, as there were no towels, dish cloths, soap, pot holders etc. Also, there were no blackout curtains, which you need because there are bright lights outdoors everywhere. As is if this wasn't enough, the hotel rents its premises to non-guests: we had to stay awake through 3 nights because of loud parties right next to our bungalow. Since the windows did not close properly, this was no fun! Also, the hotel rents out the sunbeds - when we arrived we wondered, why they would have so many sunbeds for only 20 rooms. Well, during the weekend we got our answer, when we couldn't even find a parking spot because there were over a hundred cars park infront of the hotel. The hotel property was packed with external sunbathers. Overall, the property is not how it is presented on the hotel's website - it's certainly not a 4-star resort. And it's not recommened if you want a little peace & quiet. If you don't mind a youth-hostel at a 4-star price - go there!

Breakfast was good with a large selection of fruits, breads and juices. The room was older, a bit rundown and very bare. Shower drained very slowly and the hot water was more like warm water. The place could use a major update before I would consider staying again.

Not a place to stay out of the summer seasons. There is nothing nearby and the few restaurants that are their are closed. Also, the bed was broken causing the mattress to fold in the middle. In the summer I’m sure this place is fantastic.
