We booked a room via an online site on Sunday and arrived for a two night stay commencing on the Wednesday. None of the Staff expected (any) guests and were clearly discombobulated by our arrival. We waited at least half an hour in the lobby after being told our room would be ready in ten minutes. Eventually we went for... More

This is exactly the type of hotel you think of when staying on a gorgeous mediterranean island. The hotel is a short 10-min ride from the main port and the hotel arranges pick up transportation. From the hotel it is a 15-20 min walk to the city center or you can take the hotel shuttle which leaves and returns on... More

Hotel Caracso's view is breathtaking. The hotel decor, service, location, and value for money were all exceptional. The restaurant has amazing food and the staff are very polite and professional. This 4 star hotel we highly recommend to anyone wanting to spend an unforgettable vacation on the beautiful island of Lipari! We have personally visited this hotel for the second... More

My mother, 13 yr old daughter and I stayed here for 4 nights. The Hotel Carasco is located above the main town of Lipari (on Lipari) and has a tremendous view of the main harbor below. It is a 15-20 minute walk to the center of town and the harbor area. It should be noted that the hotel is at... More

Situated in a beautiful spot about 1km from the town centre of Lipari (but 2.5km by road) the hotel offers good size rooms, a free shuttle service to town, an outdoor saltwater swimming pool with sun terrace and good bar service, and attractive gardens. The big plus for the Carasco is the restaurant: the half-board menu is of an excellent... More

when we arrived the place was pretty deserted so when we were given our room we were a bit disappointed, the room was not that great, but before we had time to complain we were upgraded to a room with the most amazing views and I found the staff very friendly. We got lots of advice on great restaurants to... More

Worst place we stayed in the whole of Sicily. Way too expensive for the old smelly rooms, murky saltwater pool and rude staff. 15 min walk to anything of interest. Check your bill very very carefully! More

This hotel oozes of decay and neglect. Its interior is dark and gloomy, reminiscent of a bad taste italian restaurant from the 70s: one of those with fake grapes hanging off the ceiling. The hotel really gets to you and puts you into a state of deep depression. The rooms are of poor taste. The beds are absolutely horrible with... More

To be more "on the sea" seems quite impossible : when you step on the balcony of your room you'll have more the impression of being on a boat than on the land... The Carasco lays on one of the nicest part of the island, within a perfect distance from the harbour. It has beautifull vegetation, amazing sea-water pool, private... More
