First time in Lampedusa. The charm of this island is incredible, especially if you live it at the relais southern islands, thirteen rooms in a breathtaking location each with large terrace overlooking the sea with priceless views of the lighthouse. The structure is equipped with a private descent to the sea with umbrellas and comfortable loungers on the rocks flush with the water, as well as an excellent Restaurant with top fish cuisine thanks to the super chef Federico, very attentive to meet the needs of his customers. Special thanks to Monica, wonderful hostess, who made our stay in Lampedusa even more magical. We hope to return soon. Letizia and Francesco

We stayed at this property and had a great time. The location is lovely not to say unique. Monica, the hostess, is always very helpful and ready to satisfy every request making you feel at home. The staff is very friendly and qualified. The rooms have a breathtaking view overlooking the sea and the atmosphere of peace and tranquility that you breathe in this property is something extraordinary. Another positive aspect to highlight is that the property offers its guests free sun loungers and umbrellas located on the cliff below the relay with direct access to the crystal clear sea. The Controvento restaurant, which is also located overlooking the sea and therefore offers a wonderful view, is open for both lunch and dinner and offers excellent dishes. Special thanks to Nancy, Alfonso and Giorgia and all the staff of Relais Isole del Sud!!!

Everything really beautiful... after 1 day here I asked to meet the owner, because only a person who loves a structure so much, can 'make it so special. All attention to detail. From the “welcome” in the room, to the very comfortable gadgets... In this room you could breathe the love and care that only a person who loves “his” house can reserve to his guests. We had a great time. The staff is always kind, attentive and present. Nensi (written as it is pronounced😘), you were sweet and I will not forget you. I highly recommend this property because as a very demanding woman I assure you that you will not find a single fault except having to leave. Thank you very much. It was an unforgettable stay

My husband booked this hotel for our anniversary in October 2023. The hotel is in a beautiful location and the room was fine. When we arrived at the hotel, our room was not ready and understandably since it was only 1:00 pm. We went to the beach bar for lunch where we were greeted by the owner. At this point she told us the restaurant for dinner had closed for the season, but the beach bar would remain open. The next day after a relaxing day lounging by the water, we went up to the beach bar for lunch and we were informed that the beach bar had closed for the season. If we had been informed earlier, we would have made other arrangements for lunch. Now here we are, starving and not near any restaurants. That evening we took a taxi into town and back which cost round trip 35.00 euros. My husband had booked here because according to the website, we would have access to a restaurant for lunch and dinner. If we had been informed at the time of the booking that the restaurants were closed, that would have been fine. But to have the owner tell us on a Monday that the beach bar would remain open, then shut it down the very next day is not how you treat your guests. Needless to say, we were very disappointed, and we will not return!

Dear Madame, we are really sorry that you could not enjoy our restaurant and beach bar. Of course, we should have informed you (upon reservation) that our restaurant would not be avaiable after October 2nd. We actually hoped to serve lunch until October 10th, but due to unavailability of personnel, we were forced to change our plans. However, please note that you booked a HOTEL STAY, no lunch or dinner is included and we never propose full board nor double board. As to the taxi costs, if you asked our reception we would have certainly helped you or driven you to the town center. In addition, car rentals are also available at fair costs. We are therefore very glad that you enjoyed and liked our hotel as well as all related facilities, and are really sorry that you were disappointed by the fact that the Restaurant was closed. Kind regards

My husband and I stayed in this hotel during the week of August. Beyond the indisputable wild beauty of Lampedusa, we greatly appreciated the hotel both for the beauty and charm of the structure and for the quality of the dishes in the Controvento restaurant. We stayed in the Lampedusa room, one of the most beautiful in the hotel, with a magnificent terrace overlooking Cala Creta overlooking the sea from which you can admire a breathtaking view. A heartfelt thanks not only to the owner Mrs Monica, always kind and friendly, but also to the restaurant staff and in particular to the waiter whose name unfortunately we don't know and to Vanessa, a proud Lampedusa native, very nice and incomparable dispenser of very useful advice. We highly recommend it!

Its a hotel with a nice and tranquil location, A short ride come the city centre. Nice cliffs to bathe from. If you are a guest of the hotel you have a reserved area at the cliffs with sun beds included in the rate. The staff is really nice, friendly and helpful. The restaurant at the sea serves lovely food for both lunches and dinners.

If you are looking for peace and quiet facing the sea this place is for you. Far from the center and overlooking the sea. The rooms are spacious, spotless and attention to detail. The terrace (they all have it) has a breathtaking view. We slept in the Stromboli room and the sea could also be seen sitting on the bed. The staff is friendly and attentive. The restaurant and beach attached a unique convenience. Breakfast with tarts at Pistachio and fresh fruit is served in the indoor room with windows that look like a picture on the blue of the sea What about it? You wouldn't want to leave!!

My husband and I stayed at the relais for 5 nights. An enchantment, an oasis of peace. Our room, Panarea, well furnished with care and style, overlooked a terrace well stocked with deckchairs and chairs. The view over Crete Bay, a wonder. Sitting on the bed and already seeing the sea is priceless. In the evening, on the terrace with the candles lit there was an incredible peace. Great service; very welcoming and helpful staff. The owner, Monica, personally introduced herself to us during dinner and was very helpful throughout the stay. He recommended a wonderful catamaran ride, which he shared with us. In her shines all the care and love for her Resort. Then we want to talk about the restaurant Controvento??? Location and top location, food even more '. I'll miss everything about this place

Wonderful location and rooms with attention to the smallest details. Comfortable bed, themed furnishings with the name of the rooms named after the southern islands. The room I stayed in is the Pantelleria. I highly recommend.
