Marettimo Residence is situated on the slope overlooking the only real street on the island (of Marettimo), about three minutes walk from the ferry point. Certainly, the place has its charms: There is the spectacular view of sea and mountain, and there is a pool area where kids will have a gaz; there is even a rocky little private beach,... More

Marettimo is lovely (apart from dog poo on the streets from the numerous and actually rather appealing stray dogs). The residence is in a great location, the jetty for swimming and boarding boats very handy. The garden planting is attractive - try adding the rosemary to your cooking - tastes utterly different to how it does in the UK. The... More

The Marettimo Residence offers simple, well equipped accommodation set in lush grounds with the added benefit of a small pool which was greatly loved by our children. Set on the edge of the village it is a very short walk to the restaurants and other amenities. We spent 2 weeks in the Residence and never ran out of things to... More

We spent three nights on wonderful Marettimo and although this is supposed to be the best on the island it is fairly basic. The studio we had was quite spacious but furnished a little like student halls of residence with cheap pine. The bed was comfortable though, and the balcony ok to sit out on although overlooked by next door... More

I almost don't want to write this as it's one of those places you want to keep to yourself. We went there with our 12 year old son for the second time this year. Both times we went for a week. Marettimo is pure, otherworldly island magic - a small place far from the cares of the world, hugged by... More

Marettimo is a stunner of an island. Marettimo Residence is adequate. Combine these two and you've got an IKEA-filled apartment on one of the best islands I've ever been. As Marettimo Residence is the only viable option for accomodation on the island, it is highly recommendable. Just don't expect anything special of the apartments and you're fine. More

This is prabably one of the most unique and charming places in Italy. The Egadi Islands are a well-hidden secret for European travellers. Especially Marettimo and the Residences are secret pearls waiting to be discovered. This is a wonderful place to stay. Not too chicque, not extreme fancy but oh so wonderful. 100% location, dedicated staff, a charismatic owner (with... More

In 2003, my wife and I discovered Marettimo and the Marettimo Residence, and we were hooked. Since then we have been coming back every year, sometimes up to three times. The magic of the island, the beauty of the residence, and last but not least the hospitality of Fausto Gobbo and his team have turned this place into our second... More

Marettimo is a great location to get away from it all. The Marettimo Residences are nice, clean, modern apartments with a good location on the edge of the village. Staff were very friendly and very helpful (especially Livio). I would recommend Marettimo for a two or three day break. There is a good variety of places to eat and the... More
