About the location
An Aeolian Island adrift from Sicily’s northern shore, mysterious Vulcano is an island well worth unpicking. A favourite of visitors looking for the unexplored, Vulcano’s beautiful volcanic landscape means fantastic hiking, black-sand beaches and natural mud springs. It’s quickly earning its spot on Italy’s ‘volcano trail’; you can reach its peak, Fossa di Vulcano, in around three hours. Vulcano Porto, the main town, is filled with a handful of restaurants and shops, but it’s really Vulcano’s remoteness that is the basis of its appeal – and mystery. It’s not hard to see why the island crops up in Greek myth; according to legend, the Romans named the island after the god Vulcan, believing the smoking volcano to be the chimney of his workshop.

Breathtakingly beautiful and relaxing resort. It was truly a slice of heaven! The view is incredible, food is amazing, and the staff is beyond friendly and helpful. Massages and spa treatments are perfect. We were especially blown away by Maria in Reception. She was so helpful and sweet and made our stay even better. Probably the best experience with a staff member of any hotel we have stayed at. Highly recommend this resort!

We were so impressed by this resort. The hotel's team was unfailingly polite, generous, and helpful. The setting is simply sensational. The choice of restaurants is extraordinary. All that the resort offers, from the spa to the swimming pool to the phenomenal service, is wonderful. We had two problems - the room in which we were staying had extremely poor internet and, much as we loved the main restaurant, we were sad not to have the option to have fresh green salad on a regular basis. The breakfast is terrific - no need for lunch. We are eager to return. You will not be disappointed.

Our standard room was just that. Lots of noise from tiled floors, thin walls. You could hear every neighbour and every one walking in the corridor. Bathroom was just adequate. Not even tissues supplied. Free minibar was 2 small beers and sugary soft drinks only. No wine, no spirits. Cheapest glass of wine was €15, 2 or 3 times the amount paid elsewhere on the island. So many staff they watch your every move yet it took 10 minutes to bring coffee at breakfast.
Pools were good, location is superb. We weren't given any info about the spa, or the layout or facilities or excursions. We had to ask every thing.
We would return to the island but not to Therasia. Difficult to identify why but it didn't feel 5*. Felt like a old hotel that has tried to come upmarket but just misses.
Has potential to be glorious

We saw the amazing sunset! Absolutely amazing location, right at the northern tip of Vulcano, looking out over Lipari over the narrow straight. The location is very peaceful and romantic. Guests are a bit of a captive audience: the two Michelin-starred restaurants are impressive but not cheap and we got the impression that there was nothing else on the island (in contrast to Lipari - no obviously nice hotels but a stunning small town/harbour with lots of food options). The service here was superb and there were four standout people: Maria, the American-Italian front of house person full of useful info and local experience: Lillo, the tireless Bar manager: Ciro, the fantastically helpful shuttle driver into the town/ferry terminus and Michaela, the lovely and incredibly hard-working member of the restaurant team. They made it feel as if we were part of a big family. Thank you.
