About the location
Holidays in Lipari take you to the beautiful area of
Sicily and the Aeolian Islands, which can be found just off
Italy’s south west coast. The island is set out over 15 square miles, and is still the largest of the Aeolian Islands. It offers beautiful scenery and an untouched feel you won’t find in many places.
Lipari is home to the cave where god of the winds, Aeolus, is said to have given Ulysses the bag of wind which aided his tour of the Mediterranean and is ideal for history lovers, as well as those wanting to simply relax. Explore little fishing villages and interior towns by bike or hire a car and find hidden coves, pretty beaches and plenty of historical sights.
Head to Lipari’s Archaeological Museum where you can learn about this fascinating island, and its past as a Greek, Roman and Italian owned island. If you prefer to spend your holidays relaxing, there is a Roman sauna cave, as well as spa baths which date back to the ancient times, in nearby Vulcano.

Beautiful views and location. Everything is easy to walk to and from, although there was a mix up upon our arrival. We were supposed to get picked up from the ferry and shuttled to the hotel and they were not there and we ended up having to wait a while for them to come and get us (even after I had confirmed several times the exact time and location beforehand). Aside from this, everything else was great.

Hotel Mea
1. Check in took 3hrs, we were left waiting in the sun with no refreshment and the room wasn???t ready despite it being past the check in time. Weren???t kept informed of that was going on
2. Were given the wrong time breakfast finished, so missed breakfast the first morning!
3. Ants on the balcony everywhere! Did nothing to remove these.
4. Were given a family room with an adjoining door, so we could hear everything next door (I unfortunately mean everything, it was highly uncomfortable). I had to complain numerous times but finally we got given a key to another room. No one at the hotel helped us move rooms.
5. Plug in bath broke, so couldn???t use the jacuzzi bath despite paying extra for this facility.
6. Jacuzzi in the outdoor pool didn???t work.
7. Distinctly average breakfast
8. Screaming old man next door to the hotel who shook trees next to the pool daily: no one at the hotel did anything to stop this distressing and incredibly scary the first time occurrence.
The island is beautiful but I wouldn???t recommend this hotel to anyone. Had the potential to be amazing but due to terrible service and management it was a real disappointment.
