La Marsa Vacances

Fantastic location. Bungalows were clean and large but basic. The bathroom shower is in poor condition and needs to be replaced however.

great club on the beach...easy access to the facilities:showers,bar,toilets,bath assistance and beautiful garden with shade. You can rent a chair with umbrella fir cheap price.

Very relaxed resort. We stayed there in March just before the summer season so was a little dead. But the rooms are clean and worth the money.

Brilliant staff were the reason this got a 4 out of 5 The rooms, well our room was fairly outdated and need a bit of work. Very simple accommodation The shower was clearly made for a child rather than a adult Cooking facilities available. We didn't use them Bikes also available If flying in to Palermo I would suggest organising a pickup with the hotel. It's about €35 but worth it especially if I a late night flight Good swimming pools and deck chairs Not far from Mondello but dont walk there or back at night as there is limited lighting and pavement

Very friendly staff. The 2 men spoke good English. Good breakfast (according to the Italian standards); including cheese and ham as well, and not just sweets. Very good location; just on the beach, although it is rocky beach. The sandy beach is around 2 km-s away; it was walking distance even for my 7 years old daughter. Bus stop is in front of the hotel; the bus takes to the beach for 1,4 EUR per person. The same bus brings to Palermo as well, but they can ask for a driver/taxi who can bring to Palermo (if you are not Italian I do not suggest to drive in Palermo :) Very good restaurant just on the other side of the road. JUN-AUG (high season) there is kitchen and it is possible to go for half or full board. We were in end April/beginning May; it was just breakfast. More restaurants are 2-3 km away; for our family it was also walking distance :) A small shop is on the other side of the road; it is not cheap, but basic products are available. Bigger shops (Spar) are 5 minutes driving. Lots of free parking spots in front of the hotel. 2 pools, good for younger and bigger children. We did not have experience with air condition / heating as we did not have to use any of them. Huge bed in the bedroom; the size of the house was enough for 2+3 persons (13, 10, 7 years old children). There was NO wifi in our house. Signal was very weak; our phones/tablets dropped it. Thanks to EU-free mobile data we were not completely disconnected. For me the bed was too hard, but my wife loved it. Fridge was a bit noisy and also the electric switches were a bit noisy situated above one of the beds. According to the owner in high season the resort could be busy as many people come from Palermo just for 1 day for having rest.

love this place. We have just come home today after a week in a beautiful bungalow. Was end of season so we had the pool to ourselves most of the time in 30’ heat. Staff can’t do enough. You do need a car though to get anywhere as it’s a bit out of the way, but only just. What to come back next year same time. Think it will be very very busy in summer season.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at La Marsa. The views are amazing, the pool is great (and clean) and you have access to the sea from the hotel property. Beautiful beach is 15 min walk but no real sidewalk so driving (or catching a bus ) is a better option. Our rooms were big, kitchen well equipped and the mattress couldn't be more comfortable. The staff is friendly and very helpful, answering any questions we had and sorting out any issues immediately. We were there in mid October so it was rather quiet and other than serving breakfast, the restaurant was closed. Great value for the money!

Reception staff were amazing particularly the manager. Very welcoming as soon as we entered the reception area. Couldn't do enough for us. One improvement tip - have food menus PRINTED in english as restaurant staff have minimal english language which was tricky. We got a nice upgrade. Free bikes to rent each day to cycle to Mondello. Would recommend.
