Summary of reviewsDomina Zagarella Sicily, located close to Palermo and offering direct access to the sea, provides guests with a serene and picturesque beachside retreat. This beautifully maintained facility sits amidst charming fishing villages and pristine beaches, boasting stunning views from its pools and sea-facing rooms that enhance the overall experience.

Breakfast at the hotel is appreciated for its varied and plentiful offerings, catering to a range of dietary needs. Guests enjoy selections like omelets, assorted sausages, pastries and fresh fruit. However, the repetitive variety and the quality of some items could see improvement to match 4-star expectations. Dinner experiences are mixed with some guests praising the rich and delicious buffets, while others noted disorganization, high prices and a lack of variety in hot dishes, particularly fish.
The hotel’s rooms are generally praised for their cleanliness, beautiful views and diligent housekeeping staff. The accommodations, though, have received mixed feedback regarding their size, comfort and noise levels. While some rooms are spacious and comfortable, others feel small and basic with varied opinions on the beds.
The exceptional cleanliness at Domina Zagarella Sicily stands out with the housekeeping staff receiving high marks for their friendly service and thoroughness. The two spacious pools, including a saltwater option and the clean access points to the sea, offer ample swimming opportunities in a stunning setting. The well-maintained exterior and beautiful views further add to the appeal of the hotel.
Staff interactions are largely positive with many guests praising the friendliness, helpfulness and professionalism of the personnel, particularly the restaurant and reception teams. Yet, some inconsistencies were noted, particularly with the pool bar staff.
The hotel's pool area, complemented by sea access, is a significant highlight, providing a relaxing and enjoyable experience. The beach area, while more of a rocky seafront access than a traditional sandy shore, is well-organized with private entry points, adding to the vibrant and enjoyable ambiance.
Families find the hotel very accommodating with facilities like the kids club and baby club service ensuring children are entertained. The double rooms with connecting doors are particularly beneficial for families.
However, parking is noted as a downside due to the additional fees and limited space, requiring advance booking. Concerns about the safety and accessibility of outdoor parking areas were also mentioned.
In summary, Domina Zagarella Sicily excels in offering a clean, tranquil beachfront experience with quality services, making it an ideal choice for a relaxing vacation. Improvements in breakfast variety, dinner organization and room comfort could further enhance the overall guest experience.

Guest Reviews
Location
The hotel features lovely pools, a neat gym and well-kept gardens, providing an environment conducive to relaxation. Direct access to the sea and the panoramic views further enhance the stay. While the location is fantastic for those who prefer the serene ambiance and beautiful sceneries, nightlife and shops are not in immediate vicinity and the Santa Flavia train station is a 1.5 km walk away.
Overall, Domina Zagarella Sicily offers a clean, beautiful and tranquil beachfront experience, making it an ideal choice for a relaxing vacation with quality services and facilities.
Breakfast
However, a considerable number of reviews pointed out repetitive and monotonous selections with the same items served daily—bacon, liquid mix scrambled eggs, mushy tomatoes and convenience pastries were frequently mentioned. There were also comments on the quality of the food, which was often described as low with processed items and powdered eggs and coffee taking a significant toll on the overall experience.
Ambiance issues were also noted with the breakfast room often being crowded and noisy, detracting from the dining experience. Additionally, the food selection ran out quickly and the fresh fruit options were limited to apples and pears.
In summary, while the breakfast buffet offers a range of choices, there's room for improvement in terms of variety and quality to meet the expectations of a 4-star hotel.
Dinner
Rooms
However, room sizes appear to be a double-edged sword; while some guests appreciate the spacious villas and rooms, others find them excessively small and basic for the price. Comfort levels seem inconsistent with some guests lauding the beds, while others find them old, uncomfortable and in need of an upgrade.
The overall aesthetic of the rooms has mixed feedback. While some enjoy unique touches like color-themed floors, others criticize the outdated furniture and cheap-looking decor. Soundproofing is an issue, as many rooms are affected by noise from evening entertainment and nearby activities.
In summary, the rooms offer stunning views and solid cleanliness, but traveler experiences vary with room size, comfort and noise levels.
Beds
However, a noticeable number of guests find the mattresses extremely hard and uncomfortable with some waking up with back pain. Instances of guests feeling the springs in the mattresses and encountering very firm bedding are also mentioned. While some guests slept comfortably, the recurring theme of hard beds and associated discomfort stands out in the feedback.
