The pool area was very clean and enjoyable. The proximity to the beach and shops/nightlife was great. Parking onsite was convenient. The view outside our room was spectacular. Room itself left much to be desired, hard bed, no window and no housekeeping during our 2 night stay.

Accommodation - a summary of the pros and cons
+ good location; spacious accommodation; tasteful furniture, daily change of towels; super swimmpool; kind staff - thin walls ... you hear absolutely everything from your neighbors; very small shower; mold in the fridge and in the shower; the kitchen does not have a kettle or a microwave (only cooker)

Great location by the beach.Plenty of shops nearby
The hotel is in a great location by the beach and walking distance to the local restaurants and souvenir shops. There is a bar on-site at the property and also plenty of parking. The rooms are very big with many amenities, clean and there is a guest services rep available 24/7. The shower is extremely small and property is slightly dated. But, this is a minor detail and I would gladly stay there again.

Not as expected
The hotel looks so much better in the pictures. The pool area is not appealing at all , there’s a DJ all day playing loud and annoying music the entire day, and the crowd seems a bit wierd as well Overall the rooms are ok. There aren’t luxurious but the hotel is in a nice walking distance from town and the beach. The receptionist David was very nice and helpful.

Don't waste your money
We booked to stay here for 8 nights. We booked ourselves on day 6 and spent our last 2 days in Palermo city centre in a 5 star beautiful luxurious hotel (cheaper than Cala marina, by the way). The room was filthy and the sofa bed was awful. Not worth the price we were paying so we asked for an upgrade, only for the reception staff (which seemed to never be the same) to say we were already in their highest standard room. Very hard to believe. There were ants everywhere and a horrible noise which kept awake all through the night. We complained several times and (another) reception member said it was the boiler so to turn it off at night. That didn't work! So by day 5, we were all tired, miserable and annoyed! The upside to this place is the pool hygiene and the lifeguard is super strict. You need to wear hair caps, which you can purchase at reception for €2 or remember your own. We came to San vito lo capo following a weeks stay in Taormina- beautiful and clean in comparison. I'd say, if you are looking for a good, albeit very crowded, beach with calm seas and you don't mind overpaying on poor accommodation, this place is for you. Staff at reception gave us a discount, which helped to ease our annoyance. We couldn't have stayed here longer than we did. Maybe 4-5 days tops for the beach but the overly loud music in the evenings made us feel like we were at a rave. The music by the pool in the day wasn't too bad, until they whooped up the volume and we couldn't hear each other

Great holiday
We enjoyed our stay, this hotel has offered us all we were looking for during our stay. The weather was great so we enjoyed the pool as much as the beach. San Vito lo Capo is a small town but has enough things to do. We wanted a relaxing holiday and that's what we had. The apartment was cleaned every day and the towels, even the clean ones, replaced which is a bit of a shame. We loved the pool attendant who kept the pool and the sun loungers so organized. Reception staff was very helpful and accomodating.

Not Thrilled
The room was an apartment, great for families with kids. Had a kitchen, plus dishes, pots and pans etc. No dish soap to wash the dishes, nor did the maids do the dishes. They just made the bed and gave clean towels. Only two towel, which you needed to take with you to the beach or pool as well. The shower was so tiny to fit into. I am a thin women and could barley turn in it. My father in law is a large man and could not fit his entire body in the shower. The bathroom is a nice size, not sure why they have such a tiny shower stall and no tub. The blowdryer, is a vacum cleaner with the air blowing out. The staff was not very helpful. We asked if there are any fishing trips as the Marina was so close, we were told we can rent a boat for 100 euros and we would need to drive it, we asked if it has fishing poles and where to buy bait. They could not answer, they suggested we go buy fishing poles. I asked if we could book excursions to different areas and he did not know, he made a call but was very unsure of what was required One day the pool was roped off, I asked why and if we could go in and he replied yes if you want to, but the ropes remained. He seemed annoyed when I asked questions it appeared to upset him. We had a few rainy days and I asked where did he suggest we go, he said I don't know Palermo. Since we did not want to go to the city I asked for any other suggestions, his reply was very short " Look signora it's not my fault its rainin

So so hotel
Not for solo travelers though amazing location and minutes by walk from the beautiful beach. Very noisy in the room because of the evening entertainment. This hotel is overpriced and should be considered a 3 star.

overpriced and misleading, 3 stars max!
The hotel is disproportionately overpriced, I would be keen to find out how they got the 4 * rating in the first place. They couldn't get the basic thing right - breakfast! There is practically NONE, although our booking clearly said "buffet breakfast". What we got for breakfast was: a pastry (no options to choose from!) that was literally handed out to us in a napkin with NO PLATE?!, a bottled juice and a coffee - espresso was not even an option as we were just offered a "cappuccino" that tasted like it was made out of a packet. While we were still there we saw another group of baffled hotel guests who were enquiring about the breakfast and whether that was all on offer. They were given a slightly better treatment: the lady at the bar offered them an option of a croissant and jam and also laid out a table cloth for them, which of course didn't make it any better, but showed just how inconsistent their service is! We then complained to the lady at reception while we were checking out who couldn't answer a basic question - how on earth this hotel deserved to have the 4* and if we could have a discount, saying the manager was away etc etc. Wifi wasn't working either in our apartment. I feel very upset and frustrated, especially provided we had stayed at Palermo for the first 3 nights at a 3* B&B for half the price of Cala Mancina with excellent service, central location and delicious breakfast!

Organised incessant, very loud music from pool
Hotel experience was completely spoilt by the organised, incessant (from 10.00 to past midnight) and very loud (could hear in our room 100m away and with both inner / outer door locked) pop music. This was not a hotel but a holiday camp. Considering the price we paid for our room, the room was poor value with no balcony or private seating area (the only outside seats available were in a public corridor). Poor breakfast choice. Best thing about the holiday camp was the rather beautiful receptionist !

Amazing sea-side resort for families
We have been to Calamancina many times and we plan to return. It is in close walking distance to the beach and the little town of San Vito. It is perfect for families with children. There is also entertainment for children.

great expectations not realised
The hotel has poor customer service due to lack of staff, the place was very noisy till midnight and the cafe was limited in provision and not of a high standard. A moderate 3 star accommodation that was adequate but certainly not 4-star. The location is difficult to reach (130 km from airport) and not evident in the local signs.

Good location, getting a bit tired
Nice place with pool and impeccable garden, we had a very large 2room apt with some seaview. Walking distance (around 10 min) to beach and all amenities. The place could do with a lick of paint and the furniture is a bit dated. Overall recommended.

Beautiful Location
Scenic beach resort with a beautiful view from the more expensive rooms of the hotel. It is a hotel for Italian families on vacation. The view from our balcony was tremendous, however, the room itself was shabby and disappointing. The bedding was substandard. All of the blankets looked at first to be filthy, but then on closer examination we could see that they were just old and filled with shedding balls. We tried best we could to keep them under the bedspread. The maids changed the sheets every day but never for five days, did they sweep the floor or clean the sink. There were signs above the sinks telling us in English not to drink the water. The check out time was 10AM.

Great location, a couple of minor issues
The location of this place is great. It's a short walk/drive to the beach, and just a little bit further to the center of town. The 1 bedroom apartment was clean and spacious and had everything we needed except dish soap and dish towels. The sofa bed is actually like 2 separate beds (there is a trundle underneath that lifts up to be even with the sofa), but is very comfortable. Parking is inside of a gate, so the vehicles are secure. The pool is beautiful, and the staff was friendly and efficient (they even helped me print out my car rental form). I would gladly go back to this hotel, but there were 2 disappointing things about our room: 1. I paid extra for a sea view, but only a very small sliver of sea was visible from the room (and only when standing pretty much in the doorway). We had to stand outside in front of the apartment to see the water, and even that was only a partial sea view. If we had been upstairs instead of on the ground floor, the view would have been wonderful. Next time, I will probably get the less expensive garden view room instead of paying extra for basically no reason. 2. There is a breaker in the living room where the sofa bed is. Throughout the night, every time the refrigerator kicked on, it popped the breaker and then there was another pop when it went back into place. The noise was very loud and I had trouble sleeping because of it..

Nice, clean, quiet and convenient
Nice clean room, good air con and was pretty good value for the area. The kitchenette was very useful as it allowed up to keep food for packed lunches and prepare a few evening meals ourselves. We didn't use the pool or the bar but they looked as though they were good. Only five minutes walk from town - far enough away from the noise but close enough to be very convenient

The view from our room was like a post card and made for some long nights on the balcony soaking it all in. The staff were very helpful and did everything they could to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The hotel is located 5 minutes walk from the main beach and main bars/restaurants making the location ideal for days on the beach and nights on the town.

Great hotel, nice people, and great service. We would ask for towels at the front desk and they'd beat us to our room. How much of this was normal and how much was merely them having nothing to do since it was the off-season I cannot say, but it was nice all the same.
