ADLER SICILIA, Siculiana

Adler Spa Resort Sicilia is built into a terraced landscape within a WWF-protected nature reserve, offering 360-degree ocean views. The hotel has three pools: an indoor/outdoor warm pool, an Olympic moderately heated pool, and a heated Thalasso pool. Guests can use free bicycles, borrow a golf cart shuttle to the private beach, or join guided bike tours and hiking trails through Torre Salsa Nature Reserve.

All rooms are spacious, air-conditioned, and soundproofed, with king-size beds, a lounge area, and a private terrace overlooking the ocean or the landscaped grounds. The Junior Suite with Sea View includes a separate shower and a large balcony. Bathrooms have raised toilets and grab rails for wheelchair accessibility.

The spa complex includes a Finnish sauna, a bio sauna, a steam room, and a fitness centre with personal trainers and yoga classes. Guests can book full-body massages, facial treatments, body scrubs, and couples massages in treatment rooms overlooking the landscape. The spa lounge and relaxation area provide sun loungers, sun umbrellas, and a hot tub.

The hotel's restaurant serves Italian, Mediterranean, and local Sicilian cuisine with a menu that changes nightly, plus a buffet of salads, breads, cheeses, and desserts. Breakfast includes a cereal table, homemade breads, made-to-order eggs, and gluten-free options. The bar offers wine, champagne, and live jazz music during sunset.

The hotel has an indoor play area, board games, and a kids' club with supervised activities. Families can rent bicycles, go canoeing, or join cultural tours and walking tours of the nearby Heraclea Minoa archaeological site. The hotel also provides babysitting services upon request.
