"Great little hotel only a 5 or so minute walk from the ferry. We had room 21 which has a patio looking out to the sea and islands. Nicolette our host was very kind and helpful in our 3 day stay. Rooftop..."

"It’s gorgeous, with beautiful common spaces and very stylish. All the crew couldn’t be nicer. By far the best experience we had in Sicily."

"Santino was a very welcoming and helpful host, reflecting the warmth of Salina and the tradition of the Aeolian islands. Excellent restaurant with local specialities."

"Everything about our stay at Mamma Santina was exceptional! The hotel arranged complimentary transport for us from the port of Santa Marina to their property, which is nestled a little way up into the hills with a spectacular view of the sea and surrounding islands. The manager himself, along with an assistant, picked us up, ported our bags and provided cheerful conversation during the brief drive. Once we arrived we were offered a drink and then shown to our room, which featured a terrace with a breathtaking view. The rooms are charming, decorated with elaborate tile work and filled with light. We ate three meals in the restaurant, all excellent. The staff was extremely accommodating throughout. On the day of our departure we went for a long hike and the kitchen was kind enough to prepare a very late lunch for us, even though we returned outside of their normal operating hours. From every angle it was plain to see that the people who operate this hotel really understand the recipe for exceptional hospitality. I feel lucky to have stayed at Mamma Santina and will definitely return."
