Hotel Vilaggio is a great place to stay! It is creatively designed with rooms and facilities on many levels, interwoven with beautiful gardens, and perched on rocks above two black sand beaches, with stunning views everywhere. Our room was small (others were bigger, presumably at a higher rate), but with a mesmerising sea view - from our balcony we could watch the waves lapping or crashing onto the rocks and sand below. It is possible to walk into town and to the port, or taxis are available for a flat fee of €10 (hold on tight!). The staff were very courteous and professional. Several spoke good English and were pleased to help in any way. Breakfast was self-serve, and although boiled eggs were the only hot option, there was a wide range of sweet and savoury food and drink (try the delicious almond granita!). Elsewhere on site there is a bar and popular restaurant, serving largely fish and seafood, but a few other options too, for lunch and dinner. Having taken a boat trip to see Stromboli’s majestic eruptions, we did make one trip into town (La Luciano is a good place to eat, and to buy takeaway street food), but had little need to leave Vilaggio as it was so relaxing. We did pay (just go with it) to use the stunning infinity salt water pool, and used the compulsory swimming caps (Smurf hats!), taking the opportunity to relax on loungers, drink in the view and enjoy the jacuzzis. Bathing and snorkelling from the black sand beaches was also a pleasure.

In 40 years of travelling, we have never come across a hotel that charged its residents extra to use the pool. Not a problem, though.

The hotel is located on the coastline with a very small private black sand beach, and a swimming overlooking the ocean and beach. it has very beautiful and spacious public areas, a few restaurants, lounges sitting places, sofa bed, all facing either the ocean or the Stromboli volcano. the property has very beautiful gardens, and many plants it is absolutely beautiful just walk around. The room is very basic, but with such spacious and optional choice of public areas, I think no one will stay in the room during their stay. The hotel is 10-15mins walk to the town center or pier, so very easy to walk around.

nothing, wish the room is more spacious and Morden, but I would not stay in the room even it is much better

Stunning setting on the cliff above the quiet volcanic sand beach and views out to Strombolicchio rock island. Lovely flower filled courtyards and patio with several places to relax Great saltwater infinity pool Very good seafood restaurant on site Friendly and helpful staff

Would have been nice to have some cushions for the chairs on our seats view balcony to make a more comfortable and relaxing space to sit in the shade and admire the views. Would have been nice to have two or three parasols in the pool area to allow those of us with a skin complexion more sensitive to the sun to lie on the sun loungers for longer

Wonderful views, with semi private access right to the beach. Small terrace and outdoor seating outside the rooms. The room was generously sized, clean, quiet and comfortable. Working air conditioning and fridge, piping hot shower. The check in was available super early, and the staff were friendly and helpful and quickly arranged another room when all ferries were cancelled due to wind and we stayed another night. The breakfast had a lot of options and was good value. As was the shuttle service and small packed lunch provided with our early check out. Would highly recommend this place.

Nothing.

Stunning location and just about as perfect as you could wish for. Lovely little old fashioned room with air con and good facilities. Basic but perfect. The views from the balcony are wow! Infinity pool overlooking a black beach and clear still warm water. Go for food and get the same views. Breakfast will not leave you disappointed. Great service from the staff and great taxi service from the port. You have to take this but keep your arms in the tuk tuk. It’s tight.

Nothing it was all perfect.

Top location directly at the sea front with access to the beach (black). Very nice architecture of the estate, wonderful garden, well taken care of. A place that invites to stay longer. The restaurant adjacent to the Hotel (that does not belong to the Hotel) is pretty good.

Unfortunately the place is run like a hostel and not like a hotel. The staff behind the counter treats you like a student and not like a hotel guest. You have to pull every piece of information out of his nose. Use of the nice pool only against 10€ per person for 1/2 day. No towels are available if you want to take a bath in the sea. The breakfast is below avaerage. No cushons on the chairs/bench in front of the appartment. A lot os unused space, e.g. on the roof top area with great view on the sea and mountains, but there was almost no shadow so sitting there at 35+ C is almost impossibe.

A beautiful hotel within the rocks with a few little and almost private beaches. The flowers are amazing and the view from the room, breakfast and lunch ! Nice swimming pool too, but you need a cap. The staff is kind and so helpful with everything. It’s a romantic place in a romantic island.

Everything was perfect except the bed. We had two separate beds, a bit unstable and the mattress was bad. If the hotel improves the beds it will be 10!

We were pleasantly surprised by Stromboli and the Hotel. Very clean and well-kept, interesting design on several locations and levels, easy to access, truly a small paradise village. The room has all the equipment and is spacious. Very nice, understanding and friendly people. They helped us book the tour to "Sciara del Fuoco", another extraordinary experience. We were helped even after check-out, thank you! The pick-up and delivery service from the port is to be appreciated, it's for a fee but it's worth it! Rich and varied breakfast, in a beautiful location.

Furniture a bit old and less functional, but plenty of space. Some old sanitary installations and some worn bathroom decorations, beginning to rust.

Over the top, incredibly beautiful location with beachfront ocean views of gorgeous volcanic rock formations and easy access to 2 uncrowded beaches. Rooms are simple but adequate and we were outside most of the time anyway. Food was delicious. Flowers/trees gorgeous. Island itself was lovely overall.

Had to pay extra per day to use the pool, and had to wear bathing caps, which they provided.

Ideal location with a perfect view of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The gardens of the hotel are full of mediterranean plants and flowers with paths that lead you from your room to different parts of the hotel. The rooms and bathrroms are clean. The hotel staff very polite.

It was very absurd to charge the clients of the hotel for the use of the pool. I've travelled a lot and in many places around the world and it was my first time i had been asked to pay for the use of the swimming pool! The decoration of one of the two rooms was quite old-fashioned.
