Hotel and Sea
Your 3-star hotel overlooking the sea

We look out directly on the marina of Castellammare del Golfo (take a look from our webcam), on the ancient and suggestive harbor, a popular destination for many visitors also for the walk among the numerous “famous” restaurants for fresh fish. Take advantage of everything that the Cala Marina Hotel can offer you.
The car is not needed, use the free shuttle to the partner beach or dive into the sea to the nearby Cala Petrolo just a 5-minute walk away. Enjoy the mini cruises in the beautiful Zingaro Reserve and the Faraglioni of Scopello up to San Vito Lo Capo. Do you want to rent a motorboat? Do you want the Skipper service? Do you want to try the experience of fishing on the boats of real fishermen? Lots of boat trips that leave just a stone’s throw away from your hotel after enjoying breakfast directly on our terrace overlooking the sea, all in a very romantic setting.
