Absolutely amazing hotel
Totally loved everything about the Ipanema. It’s a little retro nineties but that suits me fine as we hate pretentious places. Our rooms were spotless and every one has a balcony with fantastic views it seems. Christine on reception was so helpful and informative, she is a gem! All other staff very friendly too. Roof pool was a little chilly in October but we had it to ourselves and the view from the sun terrace was spectacular with the sea and bright bougainvillea blooming. Really funny that some ignorant people on here have been rude about the food as it was FABULOUS. Decent selection of unlimited self serve breakfast and a three course evening meal that we could not fault. The highlight was being served a whole sliced at the table sea bass between three of us. Come here and you will not be disappointed. No problem with wi fi only being in reception lounge and front terrace as frankly you come on holiday to escape all that!
Unsatisfactory
This is not a 4 star hotel, 2 star at best, it’s dirty, not maintained and is in desperate need of refurbishment, shower hanging off the wall, cracked sink in the bathroom, stained and broken ceiling tiles throughout, the pool is in my opinion, not fit for purpose and unsafe, due to so many broken tiles and loose steps. We cut our stay short and rented an apartment in the town
Great hotel
Great hotel as people have said before the hotel is very clean but a little old fashioned but the staff make up for this. We had a lovely week there and feel like it is in the perfect position to be able to go to the local beach or go into Taormina town. Something to note is that the sun beds are expensive. The only downside to the hotel is that the swimming pool at the top of the hotel has cracks all around the side which we felt someone could cut themselves but it does have the added advantage of having a hotel beach club. This is a great option half the price of the local beaches and you have the choice to sit on the beach and then go sit around the more modern pool with a little snack bar for drinks. The music can be a bit loud around the pool. The hotel is so close to the cable cars which make it easy to go up to Taormina town itself so you have the best of both worlds. We would certainly and intend to go back to this hotel.
