Hotels near Playa Grande

"Great apartment and lovely hosts"

"Pros: The apartment was clean and had plenty of towels and the kitchen was equipped with all the necessary pots and pans if you wish to cook. However, no salt, pepper, oil, or sugar was available, so if staying short term not worth buying to cook a few meals. Another plus was a cloth washing machine and space to hang clothing to dry outside. The location: walking distance to marina shopping/restaurants and beaches (the beaches in the area are very shallow and not goo for swimming, in my opinion the best beaches were found in Mondello, near Palermo). Nice place to stay and go for day trips to Ragusa, Modica, Scicli, Siracusa, etc. Cons: the shower is super small, barely fits a normal person. There was not shampoo, conditioner or soap provided. There is no place to hold a bar of soap or shampoo bottles. If you are large, It would be impossible to kneel and pick up from the floor as it is such a tiny shower space. On top of this the shower drain was clogged and the water did not drain easily! I did request to get it fixed, however, the water continued to drain slowly and the only way to use the shower was to turn the water off, wait for it to drain and continue to shower. The apartment, towels, etc. were strongly perfumed. In spite that I had requested no perfumes due to allergies ( we suspect that they are trying to hide odors. It is definitely a personal opinion, but the mattress in the main room was not comfortable. The gate was difficult to operate."
