Les Sables Noirs & Spa

I stayed here for 2 weeks last year, and (pre covid) for week; but I had not left a review for either visit. I am writing one now, because I disagree profoundly with one or two of the (minority!) ‘less than perfect’ reviews i have just read. Our stays were about as perfect as a holiday can be. We loved Les Sables Noirs, and will definitely return for a third visit.

The rooms are scattered in separate little bungalows around the site, and on first inspection I was absolutely thrilled with my room. After 10 days of tiny little rooms and no outside space on a tour of Sicily, here I was presented with a cross between a suite and a self catering apartment. It was absolutely enormous, with a small kitchenette with big fridge and even a freezer; cooking facilities; a table and chairs; a sofa; a really big bed; another small sitting area; a big shower room; a big private terrace (you could seat at least 8 people I should think); and a small non-private sitting area outside the front door with table and chairs. On closer inspection, the sofa was stained, and the shower, although clean, had an awkwardly placed shower head which made it difficult to use. The private terrace was not practical to use because of the sulphur smell, and it looked on to the back of some other, less well kept, apartments; but the front area was lovely and I did make use of this. Everything apart from the sofa was perfectly clean. The pool was a bit small. I only used it first thing in the morning when I was the only person in it, and that was lovely but it would be crowded with multiple swimmers.

Very nice hotel on the interesting island of Vulcano. Rooms spacious and comfortable more like an apartment than a hotel room. There was a large fridge freezer, cooker, microwave loads of cupboards but no kettle or hospitality tray...very strange. We even asked for a kettle at reception with no luck. The view from the bar overlooking the black beach is stunning, although the weather was poor for the two nights we stayed so couldn't really enjoy. The bar also plays deafening music most of the day...not nice. Breakfast OK usual fare. No restaurant, we had to walk into the village for our included meal. I give 4 stars only because the room was clean and spacious and the view outstanding.

Wouldn’t come at all. They only have 1 option of food “a burger” and it was worst than eating chain fast food like mc Donals or Bk, not what you expect of a hotel of this price. The drinks were all over priced and the service isn’t good at all. When it comes to problem solving they cannot help you at all.

We were placed here by the company that organised our tour. The major surprise? It isn't really a hotel at all - it is a time share complex. So we had a totally unnececessary kitchen with huge fridge, hob etc. It has a nice pool and a private beach area - and the breakfast is good - but it's all a bit motel-like and dull. I wouldn't choose to return.

Hotel well located, transfer service for arrival and departure, very clean room with wonderful view of the beach. Excellent aperitif on the terrace at sunset, very helpful staff a special mention for Christian and Danilo handosme guys really professional and friendly.

Sicuramente la seconda migliore struttura dell’isola. La camera in cui abbiamo alloggiato, di categoria superior, è molto ampia, bene arredata e confortevole. Pulizia della stanza accurata, a differenza di quella dei vialetti e degli accessi a parti comuni come la splendida terrazza (raccomando l’aperitivo al tramonto) e la spiaggia. Un vero peccato perché sminuisce il valore del resto. Apprezzabile la piscina e anche la spiaggia privata, ma in generale la manutenzione andrebbe aumentata per eliminare un po’ dei segni dell’età della struttura. Colazione varia, ma migliorabile nella parte del “salato”. Servizio puntuale e cortese.

Non vedevo un tramonto bello così da tempo. Abbiamo ascoltato buona musica e fatto un aperitivo eccezionale con il sushi di Simona! Atmosfera meravigliosa, bella musica e cibo buonissimo. Super consigliato!

Se vuoi godere di uno splendido tramonto accompagnato da buona musica, questo posto è incantevole. Inoltre delizierai il tuo palato con il sushi di Simona. Tre ingredienti giusti per una serata da ricordare!
