호텔 쿠티마레(Hotel Cutimare - Aeolian Charme)

Excellent location in a tranquil setting, lovely staff and good breakfast: Will be back again: Lipari is a special place for a relaxing break and Acquacaldo beach is superb: Sun loungers and beach towels provided by hotel

This was my first trip to the Aeolian Islands. A bit of a hike from Catania airport but well worth the effort (bus to Milazzo - 1 hour - and then hydrofoil ferry to Lipari). The hotel is charming and clean, and the staff are extremly attentive to guests' needs (My A/C unit didn't work, so I got an upgrade to a junior suite with terrace) and friendly without being invasive. The sea views and dawn sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking from the roof terrace where you can also enjoy a pre-dinner/pre-lunch drink. Excellent breakfast buffet and I'd recommend halfboard as the restaurant on the top of the hill (you get picked-up and dropped back at the hotel) has excellent fish fare even on the set menu, as well as a fine wine selection, available by the generous glass. The beach is right in front of the hotel and has sun loungers available. The beach is also volcanic stone which is where the hotel takes its name: "cutimare" means "ciottole" in Italian or stones. Buy a pair of rubber shoes in Lipari to save your feet from experiencing excruicating pain getting in and out of the water, although the locals walk across the stones effortlessly. This was not my case! However, the stone beach has an upside - not an ideal place for young children and families, so the beach is almost "adult" only and quiet. On my final Sunday in June, I had the beach to myself. The sea is crystalline. I used taxis but if you have a car, there are some lovely places to visit around the island or you can do a boat excursion from Lipari to explore the other islands. I added a week here after holidaying in Trentino, Barcelona, Spain and Minorca and, of all the places, I loved Lipari and Cultimare the best. In fact, I'll be returning to Sicily at the end of August. And I'd like to go back next year ... Happy holidays, folks!

Amazing place, great staff, friendly and helpful, very clean and comfortable. Great breakfast. Amazing terrace and staff where we had very good lunches and apéros. Quiet and restful. Highly recommended

The hotel is nice. It is practically on the beach and you can almost jump from your room into the water. The room is clean and useful. The most important thing is the warm and friendly excellent service. Anytime of the day, you need anything and you get it right away with a smile. Breakfast is rich and good.

8/10 I was happy until I was charged €25 for a return minibus journey I was unable to use through no fault of my own a refund should of been issued end of !!! And my last dinner at restaurant aurora was crap and I was given the runs causing to not be able to get enough sleep before catch a later ferry to Messina and bus to the airport and had rush buying limencello and couldn’t get and eat a breakfast before boarding my flight!!

We had an amazing stay at Cutimare. A big, clean and quiet room. The staff was always friendly and helpful. The location is super nice if you don't wanna be in the crowd of Lipari Port. We would definitely book again there!

The hotel is just in front of Acquacalda beach, the building is recent, clean and comfortable but some rooms (among which the one where I stayed) don't even have a private balcony. Room was well furnished and clean but some details were overlooked: I would have expected a bit more from a 4 stars hotel. Special thanks to the staff (Ms Francesca in particular) who was always very nice and helpful.

The hotel is far from the noise of Lipari center, a place of peace and tranquillity. it has its own beach just crossing the road in front of the hotels. The rooms are comfortable and nice. Stag is very kind and helpful.

Fantastico hotel 🌟🌟🌟🌟, ci siamo sentiti coccolati sin dal primo giorno. Pulizia eccezionale, stanze dotate di tutti i comfort , colazione italiana e internazionale dove non manca nulla. Possiblità di godersi il fantastico tramonto, sorseggiando un drink, in terrazza. A pochi km dal centro facilmente raggiungibile con i mezzi pubblici. Alla prossima
