This is an exceptional hotel. Lucy (hotel manager) made us feel right at home after our long journey to Salina. After all, the best places are the hardest to get to. We chose the Ravesi to celebrate our honeymoon and every member of the staff made the experience special. There are stunning views of the mountains and ocean at every corner of the property. It's a surreal experience and one that should be treasured. Madame Ravesi has created a culture of excellence. You would struggle to find a better hotel, anywhere. Be sure to participate in the sunset cruise if weather permits and enjoy a cocktail from their legendary bartender.

Our stay at Hotel Ravesi was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, everything felt peaceful and special. The staff were amazing, so kind, helpful, and thoughtful throughout our stay. The bar was one of the highlights. The cocktails were fantastic, and we had a mixology class with bartender Daniele that was a real treat. He’s talented, passionate, and made the whole experience fun and memorable. Big shoutout to him! The hotel’s location is beautiful, with stunning views and a calm atmosphere. Our room was super comfortable, clean, and tastefully decorated. We also took part in a boat tour and a wine tasting organized by the hotel - both were excellent and very well planned. Everything was done with care and attention to detail. It honestly felt like a little piece of heaven. We loved every minute and can’t wait to come back.

Ravesi is an old family home which has been turned into a hotel and it very much feels like you are welcomed into the family home. It is absolutely charming, in the most gorgeous grounds in a stunning location. Captivating views of Mt Stromboli over the infinity pool and a range of locations throughout the gardens to relax with a coffee and drink. Martina was so welcoming and helpful as were most of the staff.

Breakfast was amazing but we sometimes felt the servings were a little on the small size And getting a drink from the barman in the evening sometimes felt like an imposition which was completely out of step with the rest of the most welcoming and friendly hospitality.

I loveeed this place. It was kind of magical. Since it is locating in the middle of the island everywhere was reachable and reception helped me a lot with taxi arrangements. I really recommend this place not just because the place itself was amazing but everyone who are working here are very kind, helpful and genuine. They even prepared a breakfast bag and left it the night before since i was leaving early in the morning. Thank you everyone especially Nadia😊 hope to stay there again.

Thankyou so much to all the staff for making our stay so memorable. Every member of staff is a credit to the hotel! Nothing is too much trouble and guests are really looked after. The hotel location is perfect and facilities and landscaping is done beautifully. A most wonderful and special place to stay! Thanks and see you again soon.

nothing.

Everything was amazing. Staff were super friendly and helpful with great tips on what to do on the island. The facilities were clean and tasteful and the grounds were immaculate with beautiful gardens. We were lucky enough to be upgraded and had the most amazing terrace. Sad to leave.

Nothing. Genuinely a phenomenal stay with nothing to critique.

Above all the service provided by the staff is outstanding. The infinity pool and terrace with views of Panarea and Stromboli in the distance (after dark you can actually see Stromboli erupting from the terrace) is the standout feature of the hotel. The gardens are also beautiful. The bar is staffed by an excellent barman with a great selection of cocktails available. The beds are also especially comfy. The high review scores really are deserved.

While the breakfast selection is very good, I would personally prefer a wider selection of cooked items (only scrambled eggs are available). That said, the breakfast is inexpensive compared to other hotels we stayed at in Sicily and cooked breakfast isn't really a 'thing' in Italy in quite the same way.

This is a true Gem. Everything was exceptional. The friendly staff, the beautiful property, the breakfast home made by Ms. Ravesi herself, the private boat tour with dinner on the boat and views of the erupting Stromboli vulcano, the communications leading up to the trip, the transport, the scooter rental. We cant wait to come back!

This was one of our favorite hotels...ever. We were upgraded to a suite, but I suspect that every room here is superb. Ours had a small living area and a spacious bedroom. But the main reason to come to Ravesi is the sea. Our room had a large terrace with comfortable furniture and an incredible view over the Tyrrhenian Sea to Panarea and Stromboli. The pool is remarkable, an infinity pool with an ever broader view over the ocean. The hotel has lush gardens that spill far down the hillside toward the water and a beautiful terrace for aperitifs or a light lunch. The food is also excellent. Hard to imagine a better stay on an island in Europe.

What an absolute find. Such a jewel of a boutique hotel. The history, the engagement by the matriarch Mrs Ravesi, her food, the service of the friendly staff and the location make this one of my favourite hotels. I’ll be talking about this hotel for a long time. Such a beautiful setting in Malfa on the Island of Salina.
