I was visiting Giardini Naxos for a conference, where I had to stay at the Hilton, and then I stayed afterwards to sight-see at the Hippocampus BnB. I wish I could have stayed at Hippocampus the whole time instead!

Elisabetta and her family told me I was one of the first guests to stay with them, which was a surprise to me because it was such a comfortable and well done stay, I thought they must have been hosting people for a while!

To room was very nice, clean, and quiet, with a firm comfy bed. Breakfast was great each morning with good variety, and I was full each day! When I went exploring the nearby architectural history I often didn't feel hungry at lunch and could keep exploring instead.

The location was great, a very easy walk (maybe 3-5 minutes) to lots of restaurants, shops, cafes, and the beach, as well as pharmacies and markets for other items. But just far enough away to be quiet and calm. The bus stop was also just down the road to visit nearby towns, or you can take a nice walk about an hour to nearby towns and take in the beautiful views along the way. The room was very nice, a good comfy bed and a nice view.

My hosts were very kind and friendly... they even were kind enough to send some postcards that I had left with them since I missed the post office hours, and they made me a package of food on the last night for my morning flight which left very early, otherwise I would have missed out on breakfast. There was also a very cute friendly little puppy! :-)

I would definitely stay with them again if I ever return to Sicily!
