I just returned from a magical stay at Hotel Villa Schuler, where everything felt perfect. The service was truly really good, with staff who treated me like family. The views from my room were absolutely amazing, and breakfast offered a good menu with fresh ingredients and a lovely ocean view. The only downside was the absence of a pool, but the stunning garden and easy access to local attractions made up for it.

My stay at Hotel Villa Schuler was genuinely a mix of fantastic experiences and minor disappointments. The amazing views from my room were a highlight, as was the warm and friendly service from the staff. However, I found the room size to be smaller than expected given the price, and the lack of dining options beyond breakfast was a bit limiting.

Breakfast on the terrace was a real treat with delicious, fresh options and a lovely setting overlooking the sea. However, I did find the cost of breakfast to be on the higher side compared to other hotels I've visited.

While the hotel offered several amenities like room service and tourist assistance, I did miss having dining options beyond breakfast available, and it would have been great to know about the sun loungers earlier in my stay.

My stay at Hotel Villa Schuler was such a good experience. the stunning views of the Ionian Sea and Mount Etna from my balcony were amazing. I loved the homemade breakfast served on the terrace, especially the delicious blood orange juice. however, the bathroom setup left something to be desired. While the overall ambiance and friendly staff made it a nice trip, the shower design was quite puzzling.
