Relais Antiche Saline

Immersed among white salt dunes, at the|Discovering a metaphysical seascape, we find ourselves at the Relais Antiche Saline like magic. The facility is welcoming right from the entrance gate. Beyond the blue threshold of the front door, the courtyard with armchairs and small tables invites a stop even before we reach the reception. Here we are greeted by the very kind concierge, who has already made reservations for a nearby restaurant. Comfortable, tastefully decorated room with a large bathroom with window and views of the salt marshes surrounding the relais. Breakfast varied, plentiful, served by smiling staff, and then to the pool, with even goes to whirlpool. Could it be done better? Difficult. We will definitely be back!

very nice Hotel near Trapani, offering amazing views, great breakfast, and a great pool. Very busy restaurant, contrasting with the quietness of the Hotel. They generously offered us a late checkout at 1 pm, which I did appreciate, but did not recognize it was my birthday, was not expecting champagne but a happy birthday card or a slice of cake is simple, inexpensive and would have been a nice touch. Considering the above, found service to be lacking, with a little bit of attention and care they would have all it takes to be a 5 star hotel.

A quality hotel, fantastic location, great service and breakfast only marked down as rooms could do with bit of modernisation.

Without their knowledge, this place inadvertently saved our whole trip. We suffered a massive schedule delay, and it threw our pre-booked itinerary in the garbage. We literally booked our room about 45 minutes out while en route to Trapani (found on booking.com). We were greeted personally, and given special arrangements. The staff made reservations for dinner 200m from the front door where I literally had the best pasta dish of my life: Medaglioni Ripieni di Crostacei al Pistacchio, even typing the title makes me salivate and smile. The next morning, the breakfast was perfect: fresh fruits, pastries, fresh baked bread, various meat and cheeses, coffee prepared to order. We were allowed a very late checkout, and this time allowed us the opportunity to reclaim control over our trip in a relaxed, no stress environment. Do yourself a favor, self care is important: Stay here. It's far enough off the beaten trail to be quiet and peaceful, close enough to everything around to be convenient.

Very comfortable hotel with an outstanding location looking out over the salt pans, Egadi islands and the most magnificent sunsets. ||We had a large room with a large terrace, comfortable chairs and our own jacuzzi. I think we were lucky to have the best room (201) but it was definitely worth it. ||There’s a nice pool and a bar/breakfast room. The hotel owns a restaurant about 250m away across the salt pans (don’t drink too much as you have to find your way back in the dark!). A lot of people come to the restaurant just for the sunset so it’s rather busy though most are taking photos rather than eating. ||Very nice staff and all very helpful. ||Would definitely recommend.

Very welcoming and exceptionally helpful staff. Pleasant, simple rooms. Overall good value for money. The environment next to the salt pans and windmills is unique with amazing skies. Great views from many of the bedrooms and wonderful morning walks. Very convenient for visiting Mozia with all its ancient history and museum. The garden and pool are very relaxing. The restaurant is a short walk away, has lots of character and is excellent value,serving generous portions of Sicilian food.

A very unique experience in a special location. Super quite and dark skies in this stand alone oasis set in a nature preserve and historic salt farming area. The associated restaurant down the path is as good as the hotel and the staff in both is excellent. Worth going out of your way to stay here.

Lovely comfy room in a beautiful hotel. We walked to the windmill for dinner. There happened to be a salt festival going on so the area was busy but everyone was friendly and helpful. Lovely sunset. There is a bar and a swimming pool at the hotel. Breakfast was very good.

The west coast of Sicily is remarkable. Europe of course, with strong influences of African culture. Some of them due to the climate. Between the two cities Trapani and Marsala you'll find the old salt district. Salt from the sea. Right here is Relais Antiche Saline. A charming secluded hotel at the end of the road in connection to an excellent restaurant just a few steps away, passing alongside some of the very many salt basins. The hotel is in perfect shape with a nice garden and a swimming pool. For the interested travelers; we are in Nubia where they grow the world famous red garlic. When leaving your bags are full of them. And that's a promise.
