We stayed as a family with two kids and had a great experience. The staff were very professional and welcoming, giving us a full tour of the hotel upon arrival to show all the facilities. The hotel is located right on the beach and offers plenty of parking. We booked a two-room suite, which had lots of storage — a large bedroom closet and a generous walk-in closet. There was also a nice little balcony to relax on. We chose the full board option, which included three meals a day plus snacks between lunch and dinner. While we didn’t get a chance to try lunch at the hotel because we wanted to explore local Sicilian restaurants, the meals we did have were not disappointing at all — a rich variety of good-quality food that worked well for both us and the kids. There’s a lovely winery called Anastasia about a 20-minute drive away that’s definitely worth a visit. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful gardens, adding to the relaxing atmosphere. All in all, it’s a great spot for a family vacation — you really can’t go wrong with a holiday in Magnia's Himera Resort!

At first i have to say that i have read all the reviews online and i was sure that this place will be very dull and bad. But im happy to say it all was wrong! We LOVED that hotel! We took the standard with sea view room all inclusive so we dine and wine in the hotel for 4 days. I will start from the room - Everything was super clean and new, beautiful design and big terrace (with roof) The bed wasn’t so comfortable but not the worst as well. Shower was big and clean and towels smelled fresh and nice. The only bad thing i have to say is that the room was quite small and not enough wardrobe space as well. The food - We had breakfast, lunch and dinner in the hotel, as well as some drinks from the bar (all inclusive menu and also off menu) all was really good! The inclusive drink wasn’t for my taste, the wine selection was poor and the taste was very cheap… im locally from sicily and i know you can find even 1€ bottle of wine that taste better than that so i dont think it was a matter of saving. Anyway back to the food that was AMAZING i was very scared that all inclusive hotel will serve poor food but then i was wrong again, all was fresh and delicious, plenty of choice. High quality fish and meat. I loved everything. The facilities- We didnt had the chance to dip in the pool since it felt cold for us, but i could see it was very clean and big enough. We stayed in the pool area and beach area for all the stay, and it was quiet and peaceful with beautiful view to relax, exactly as we wanted it to be. The hotel crew was also organizing some games and activities, we took part in some of them and if was pure fun. The crew - I have to say that we saw the director of the hotel at the place every single day (also during the weekend) its a nice feeling knowing someone is actively managing the place and you can feel it as well by the way everything was organized and perfect.

I have mentioned some things above.

The room was clean. The staff was very positive and helpful. There was a lot of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can book tours in the hotel. There is a little shop even there so you can buy something if you like.

There are mostly french tourists so the staff is speaking firstly french and than Italian, english is very rare. At some occasions the staff spoke only French. If you book a tour outside the hotel be prepared (if you are an english speaker) to google all the information or somehow translate the tour guide. They said the tour guide will be speaking English which she did not (at first she tried but quickly gave up and tried telling us only the important information). The room we had was looking right on the pool so we did not have our windows open because of noise.

I have read the reviews before, but some are exaggerated from my perspective. The staff was nice and we could communicate partially in English or French, mostly in Italian. There are several French guests and you can have Italian classes each day if you want. The beach is mostly with sand and partially with stones (10-15%), so you can avoid them. The food quality was good, and there was different food in each of the 7 evenings we stayed. It was a nice vacation overall.

Very friendly stuff, offering lots of activities on-site for their guests of different age. Some programs continued till mid-night. Safe area for kids. Direct access to the beach. A big parking for cars. There are different tours being offered for groups to visit Palermo and other places. Great breakfast, lunch and dinner in a buffet style - the food was never boring and always of a great quality! Those who prefer this kind of vacations will definitely appreciated the facilities, the highest level of service and how everything is organised! However, if you came for a sea, then be aware - coast line is far from perfect. This is the only reason I'm giving 9 out of 10 to the overall rate of our stay.

A beach and water in this particular area. It was a feeling that it's few degrees warmer that it should be (maybe because of a factory or power plant, which is located a bit west of Himera's beach) . It's not as clean as on the east side (Naxos, Taormina area). But the biggest problem for us was an actual entrance to a water - the coast line is full of stones, which are not always visible and covered with silt. We swam just couple of times during our stay of 4 days. Swimming shoes are highly recommended!

beautiful rooms, comfortable, very clean lot of reviews mentioned noise, we did not hear anything and felt the rooms were peaceful and quiet easy check-in and check-out process, reception staff very kind

a couple of times the restaurant staff made us feel almost as if we were bothering them when needing help, we also noticed french speaking hosts seem to receive better treatment here Quality of pasta/pizza (practically cake with cheese on top) quite poor given we were in Italy

- Swimming pool and beach area is great. Enough sunbeds and umbrella’s for everyone. - Rooms are very spacious and clean. One of the best rooms we have ever had in Italy. And clean!! - Very friendly and responsive staff.

- The average age of the guests here was certainly 65+ so we didn’t really fit in. - The dinner buffet is quite expensive, the breakfast buffet wasn’t of great quality but OK overall. - The music / entertainment downstairs is loud and keeps going until 1.00. If you’re a loud sleeper, ask for a room far from the entertainment area.

The property it is gorgeous, very clean, lovely pool side, lovely green areas. The staff was very nice and always checking on guests. Food was very good for our taste and need.

The mattress on the bed was quite out of fashion and not comfortable, after the first two nights we couldn’t rest properly and had back pain, my partener has hernia also and did not made him any good at all.

A very well designed hotel with nice and cozy rooms, pool area and a beach. The people working at the hotel are nice and attentive which made our stay pleasant. A lot of choices in the restaurant and especially the pasta was always delicious.

Very professional & Friendly staff. They do their best to accommodate you. Top notch cleanliness standard. The Garden and pool area are fantastic. Parking on property. Food is also good.

The room is very small for a couple. Our balcony was shared with an another room. Paid a good price for a standard which means you need to bring water , glasses , small towels and there is no kettle /coffee or tea supplied. As in toiletries just the right wash and shampoo and nothing else.
