We stayed here for a week in April, and it was a fantastic holiday. We got a great deal on our stay by contacting the hotel directly, and it was worth every penny. We arrived late at night, and as it was out of season the hotel resterant hadnt opened for the season, but the town of San Vito Lo Capo which was a five minute walk away had some great place to eat. When we got up the following morning we were greeted by the most stunning view of the beach and mountain from our patio.
The rooms were well kitted out, with a tv and all the kitchen utensils you could need (including table cloth and napkins which was a nice touch) and there were plenty of towels. The bathroom was lovely. The pool area was very nice with plenty of chairs and sun loungers. The pool bar like the resterant was closed but we were so near to the beautiful town that it didnt matter. The staff in reception were very helpfull and as it was quiet, let us stay in our room till after 4pm even though check out was 10am, which felt like it allowed us have another day on our holiday!
San Vito Lo Capo was beautiful, and I can highly recomend the Gna' Sara resterant for its great food and friendly waiters.
A 10/10 holiday!

We spent 7 nights here at the end of September. The room was light and comfortable with a well resourced, separate kitchinette/sitting room and spacious bathroom. The site was well situated, just a few minutes walk away from the harbour, the fantastic fishmonger, the beach, shops and other amenities. All the staff were helpful and the hotel had some good views and dedicated parking which is handy as you have to pay on most of the roads in the area.
However, the stay was marred by the AWFUL DJing. We were shaken out of bed at 9.30 am on a Sunday by this terrible racket which continues spasmodically throughout the day and only stops at midnight. We complained and the volume was turned down a bit.
Another downer was the TINY shower in the bathroom - hardly room for one person. The swimming pool is also much smaller than you would expect from the photos and you have to wear a swimming cap. But, who needs it with the sea so near by.
So, despite the lovely facilities, I would probably choose to stay somewhere else when I return to San Vito Lo Capo which is a charming and relaxing place for a holiday. My advice to the hotel is to get rid of the DJing - we met many others who were put off by it! I am sure they are losing custom as a result of this over enthusiastic fellow. San Vito Lo Capo is not Ibiza.

I just got back from this hotel today, and while it was adequate, there is nooooo way (on the planet that I live on) this is a four star hotel. I got there with my luggage and the reception guy who showed me to my room didn't lift a finger to help me with it. He's walking up the little hill that leads to my room holding nothing but my room key and I'm dragging a huge suitcase behind me. Grrrrrr.
There's not a whole lot of service, exacerbated I'm sure by the fact that I don't speak Italian. Forget dreams of room service, or even ice delivered to your room. Breakfast is a trip to the poolside bar (before 10AM! Grrrrrr.) for pre-packaged crackers, brioche and coffee. Thank god coffee is good anywhere in Italy, even though its served by a surly barrista. Dinner in the restaurant is crap, tough calamari and undercooked risotto. But I think most folks have little kitchenettes in which they make dinner, so that probably explains it.
The place is filled exclusively with families (expect that, since San Vito is very much a family holiday spot) and absolutely STUFFED with kids. Want to take a refreshing dip before dinner? You can't. There's a nice pool, but you won't be able to enjoy it since it's constantly over run with bambini, whirled into a frenzy by some guy (loosely based on a Club Med GO) with a microphone screaming games for them to play in the water. When adults should be able to enjoy the pool (say, 7PM) they CLOSE it. Grrrrrr.
The best thing about it is that my room was clean and the location is close enough to the beach, although pretty much everything in San Vito is near. Also, the view of the beach is pretty since the hotel is on a hill. Plus sometimes everything else is booked and you have no choice:)
That said, if you have kids, you'll probably enjoy it.

we stayed here for 5 nights in may and what a wonderful place. it just takes approx 1hr from trapani airport and the drive there is spectacular.
the location is fantastic just 3minutes walk to a beautiful beach.very relaxing holiday and staff were wonderful. we even got fresh towels every day! plus they didnt mind if you took them to the beach.!
food was lovely but we self catered so we just had snacks.
the units are just lovely, decent size bathroom (no bath just shower) and a lovely kitchen/dining area. everything was spotless.
resort was quiet but everyone was so friendly, would definetly return.
