My stay at the resort had its ups and downs. On one hand, I experienced a lovely clean room and some great entertainment options, but on the other hand, I faced challenges with the dining variety and the unhelpfulness of some staff. The location was quite remote, limiting our options for activities outside the resort.

My stay at the Athena resort was a mixed experience. While the beach was beautiful and relatively quiet, the overall service and dining left a lot to be desired. I found the facilities a bit underwhelming, but the friendly atmosphere created by some staff members helped lift my spirits. However, I wouldn't recommend this place if you are looking for a well-organized and inclusive experience, especially for English-speaking guests.

I had a unique experience at this resort with its large complex and beautiful setting. The food was fantastic, especially the pasta and fish dishes, and the pool area was a fun and lively place to relax. However, the language barrier made communication difficult with the entertainment team, who seemed to focus primarily on the French guests. While I loved the overall vibe and variety of activities, I couldn't help but feel disappointed by the lack of engagement for English-speaking visitors.

The Athena Resort offers a variety of experiences, from beautiful dining options to vibrant animation at the pool. While the rooms are clean and functional, they lack some modern comforts like balconies. The location strikes a balance as it's convenient for exploring the beautiful cities of southern Sicily, but can get congested during busy periods. Overall, it's a decent place to stay for its value and the food certainly elevates the experience.
