Hotel Signum, Salina
The Hotel Signum is set on Salina, a little gem of an island, part of the Aeolians, tucked away north of Sicily.
A delightful family run property with absolutely everything to offer. The hotel is crammed with antiques that the owner Clara has picked up over her travels around Italy and Europe which means no room is the same, and there are objects of interest dotted throughout the hotel and the spa. The style is traditional Sicilian with beautiful spaces to sit, read and take in the views of the ever smoking volcanic island of nearby Stromboli. Real Holidays favourite spot was in the orchard amongst the lemons trees bursting full of fruit, glass of crisp white local island wine to hand.
The outdoor spa was a fantastic experience and a great way to wile away the afternoon, with its Thermal Stove steam baths, geothermic mineral pools and the mud deck. Oh, the mud deck. We covered ourselves in thick Thalasso silt and reclined in the afternoon sun until dry before hosing ourselves down and heading to the stone Jacuzzi baths until our skin went crinkly. Another draw to the Signum is the food. Michele, the husband, with his daughter Martine handle the kitchen, and it’s renowned on the islands for the high standard of food offered. Surpassing the traditional trattoria cuisine, they use local ingredients to the island and Sicily and give them a modern twist, and when accompanied by an impressive wine list and the friendly, helpful service, makes for quite an evening.
The classic room all have garden view, and the superior rooms either have a partial sea view or garden view with a mezzanine. All the deluxe rooms have sea view and come with either balcony or terrace.
If you’d like to venture out and explore the surrounding area then Malfa is one of the bigger settlements complete with village square and a few places to eat and drink. The buses go regularly to the picturesque Santa Marina, and Lingua where no visit to Sicily is complete with the treat of an open sandwich (seriously) from Alfredo’s and his gratina, widely regarded as the best in Sicily.
