    Beautiful view but beware of the challenging drive in. Take SP 19 to get there since Google maps or your GPS will get you lost. Staff is fantastic and hospitable. Great restaurant. Met the owner is was charming and sincere.

    Beautiful place, a real slice of tranquility. The two ladies on reception were delightful and so helpful. Minor quibbles were the rather underpowered aircon, and the pool area needs a little TLC ( although the water was lovely and warm), but don't let those things stop you from visiting.

    We came across their restaurant after visiting the beautiful streets of Savoca. The food was not bad, but average and definitely not worth the price! Very high prices for average quality food. The location is nice and quite catchy as it looks perfect for a romantic dinner, but I would not come back there for dinner!

    Our second visit, this time with our almost-3-year old and nanny. The first time it was a romantic couple’s trip and, even with a toddler, it still lived up to every positive memory. Vittorio and the staff, the views, the rooms, the hospitality…it’s truly a slice of paradise. We’ll be back soon. ❤️

    A wonderful experience and service from super staff. Many thanks Alessandra and Federico for making our stay so memorable.

    I cannot start to express how fantastic and great everyone here is. The wait staff, the host, the reception, everyone treats you like family. Then there is the room, beautiful, clean, and comfortable with an amazing view. Finally the location, you just can't beat it. You are walking distance from so many great locations and sights to see. Oh and I almost forgot the food is next level! If you are considering a stay in Sicily, look no further, you have found the best place to be. Don't just take my word for it, everyone else is saying the same thing. We will be coming back!

    Very nice view. Hotel is on top of a hill, quite hard to drive from narrow streets. Rooms are not special. Basic furniture (eventhough we were upgraded to a suit!) and there is even no tea or coffee in the room. Breakfast is average, no omelet or fruit juice, fruits are not fresh, same cake was being brought everyday....maybe it was because we went in low season. Restaurant food is in my opinion bad, and not value for money according to italian standards. We ate 2 nights and the other 2 nights we ate in the city, which was much better. Old bread is brought. Only nice thing in hotel restaurant was the starter they served from the chef. Personnel is very kind, however in general I would have expected better facilities and food from such a "resort".

    We stayed at the hotel with my wife for one day while travelling around Sicily. The staff was very friendly, the facilities were great and the view was amazing. And of course the food at the restaurant was really delicious. Definitely recommend to visit.

    What a place! Such a beautiful hotel, with amazing views and the most kind and welcoming staff you can imagine. Owner and staff was super friendly, and we felt very very welcome. Would highly recommend this place!

    We got married at Borgo San Rocco Resort in May 2023, and we cannot recommend this venue highly enough. We were able to seamlessly communicate with the hotel in English as everyone spoke excellent English. This made it very easy for us. Our journey to this beautiful location in Sicily began in October 2022, and from the moment we set foot in the resort, we felt like a part of the family. Francesca was with us every step of the way, fulfilling every wish we had for our special day. Thanks to her excellent organization, we were able to save on hiring a separate wedding planner. Francesca introduced us to amazing vendors and handled all communication on our behalf, as we didn't speak Italian. We were thrilled with every detail, from the priest and the beautiful church Chiesa Madre di Savoca, to the music (a beautiful string quartet in the church, traditional music during the reception, and a fantastic DJ in the evening), the photographers and videographers, vintage wedding car, delicious wedding cake, the exquisite floral arrangements, and the overall decor. We particularly loved the beautiful string lights at the front courtyard, which they specially installed for us. Francesca even organized babysitters with a bounce house to keep the children entertained. The kids all LOVED it, allowing the parents to enjoy their dinner without worry. We had a total of 100 guests and celebrated for two days at the resort. The first evening was a delightful pizza party for everyone to get together, and the second day was our wedding. The food, Sicilian wine and service were outstanding. During our visit in October, we had the opportunity to taste all the dishes, and Francesco (the chef) tailored the menu to our preferences. He also accommodated special requests from our guests, considering allergies and dietary restrictions with absolute perfection. We were able to accommodate approximately half of our guests at the resort itself, but there are several small Airbnbs in the village that offer rooms for rent. This made it easy to house all our guests without any issues. We stayed in the "Bridal Suite," which was a charming tower, and it was perfect for capturing stunning getting-ready photos. Savoca is a truly magical little mountain village, and it was incredibly convenient that everything was just a few meters away. This meant we could avoid transfers and save time. One of the highlights of the village is the breathtaking view and the tranquility it offers. It was perfect because there weren't many other people or tourists in the village, allowing us to fully enjoy our wedding with our families and friends. Every corner of the village is beautiful, making it perfect for photoshoots. Savoca is a part of cinematic history, as the all-time classic "The Godfather" was set in this location (wedding scene). This added an extra layer of special significance for us and our guests. The journey to the location was uncomplicated as well. The nearest airport is in Catania, approximately 80 km away, which is about an hour's drive. We organized a shuttle transfer with small minivans for our guests. Some of our guests rented a car as they extended their stay on the beautiful island of Sicily. On our wedding weekend, everything went according to plan and even exceeded our expectations! It was the most beautiful day of our lives, and we want to express our heartfelt thanks to the entire team. GRAZIE! We, along with all our guests, fondly remember the wonderful days in Savoca. Our guests enjoyed it so much that they suggested we celebrate our anniversary together in Savoca every year.

    Our last day in Sicily. We didn't really know where to go. Ultimately, we chose Messina, but on the way we went to the town of Savoca, where Coppola was filming The Godfather. There wasn't a soul in sight, almost everything was closed except Vitelli's bar. But the weather was truly beautiful. As it turned out, not only the weather. We spent the whole day here walking in the fairy-tale scenery. On the way, we passed a hotel with a restaurant, closed for the off-season, when we passed a gentleman sitting in a chair. We asked if the restaurant was open? He replied that not until March, but he was about to prepare lunch, and would like to invite us to his place. Apart from us, he invited a couple with two children. I cautiously asked if I could pay by card, to which he replied, "if I invite you to dine with me, I do not expect you to pay, this is Sicilian hospitality." He also added that he saw that we were looking for a place to eat, and the other couple were with children that were most likely hungry, and he knew that we would not find an open restaurant in the area. The next hour we spent talking over dinner with Vittorio, the owner of the Resort Borgo San Rocco hotel. We didn't reach Messina. But we do not regret it. A truly cinematic experience. ❤️ We will come back to stay there soon!
