We stayed here for 3 nights in late September, other than a French tour group, the hotel was pretty empty... many times we had the beautiful salt water pool all to ourselves. Our room was large, clean and with a view to the sea... for a great price!!! It had AC and we needed it! The best part was climbing... More

Lipari offers so many memorable experiences that it is almost too much to expect a perfect hotel that is a solid base of operations as well. But the Carasco is just that. The staff of this hotel (family owned and operated for three generations) is extremely professional and capable, while remaining completely Italian - warm, passionate and genuinely engaged. The...

Just returned from a week long stay at the Carasco. Firstly, the Island of Lipari is an absolute treasure. I cannot recommend it highly enough. The town is big enough to keep you amused, plenty of shops, many many excellent restaurants, yet not too big too feel engulfed by tourism. It feels Italian, it feels like an island. Rent a... More

I am disappointed to read some of the other reviews as having stayed in the Carasco on two occasions, I found it the most spectacular places to stay in Lipari, When I opened the shutters in my room, all I coild see was this amazing turquise sea! The pool is on top of the cliff, the food is lovely and... More

We booked a room via an online site on Sunday and arrived for a two night stay commencing on the Wednesday. None of the Staff expected (any) guests and were clearly discombobulated by our arrival. We waited at least half an hour in the lobby after being told our room would be ready in ten minutes. Eventually we went for... More

This is exactly the type of hotel you think of when staying on a gorgeous mediterranean island. The hotel is a short 10-min ride from the main port and the hotel arranges pick up transportation. From the hotel it is a 15-20 min walk to the city center or you can take the hotel shuttle which leaves and returns on... More

My mother, 13 yr old daughter and I stayed here for 4 nights. The Hotel Carasco is located above the main town of Lipari (on Lipari) and has a tremendous view of the main harbor below. It is a 15-20 minute walk to the center of town and the harbor area. It should be noted that the hotel is at... More
