Riva Sea Apartments

Beautiful villas with uninterrupted views of the sea and mountains. The staff was very friendly and the host were amazin

Pros: Our apartment was very central, local to all the amenities and 5 mins walk to the beech. Beautiful to watch the sunrise in the morning. We also enjoyed the bbq. The pool was clean and even though the villa was fully booked it was very peaceful.

Cons: Everything was good. The only thing i can say is that the windows mesh can be repaired as the area has mosquitoes. ( thats the whole area not just the villa ) and the main door could do with a snap screen to prevent the mosquitoes coming in.

Beautiful

Pros: Loved the pool, the view, access to supermarket & beach by walking. Clean & professional set up.

Cons: I have an allergy to cats & there are a family of cats roaming around visiting the front terraces unfortunately for me. There's only 1 key/family group so other villas would sometimes call your room to buzz them in the gate. I would suggest allowing additional keys or a way for guests to get inside without relying on one key perhaps?

Pros: Very nice view. Close to the city, supermarket and train station. Nice pool, surroundings and good services ( garbage disposal, etc.)

Cons: - a smelly couch for sleeping. -a leaking terrace roof (during heavy rain) - some cats

Lovely family break just a little bit far out of town to walk - need a car

Pros: Clean , quiet and good location to small supermarket and beach . Friendly staff to meet and greet on arrival .

Cons: Was a trek into the town for meals out

Had a very relaxing time, would come again.

Pros: Very close to beach and supermarket and local cafe and pizzerias. Amazing view of sea and mountains. 30 minute walk to the town centre for more restaurants. 20 minute drive to Segesta temple and amphitheater.

Pros: convenient parking, seamless check in, 10 minutes walk to nearest beach and conand market. pool is really nice, with amiazing view. it is 1,5 m deep - without area for small babies. kitchen is well equipped, bathroom is clean rooms are spaciuos bedrooms with aircon. apartments are really comfortable. recommended for families with kids. castell mare itself is not a town with italian soul though, neighbourhood is not really interesting, not much to do within walking distance. there are really nice places to visit but you need a car. Zingaro reservat is reall beatiful place you can hike for hours or swim at one of those beatiful smal beaches. you can also rent a motorboat in the marina and go for a trip along the coast.

Nice option for families

Pros: We are a family with a child and had a wonderful vacation at the end of March, despite the windy and rainy weather. The apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including a spacious terrace with sea and pool views. Each apartment also has a private yard. We had a parking spot for our rental car (highly recommend Brucolla Rent). There is a children’s playground on-site. The large beach is a 5-7 minute walk away, and the old town is just a 5-10 minute drive.

We loved our visit and plan to return for a longer stay so that we can explore more of the area. Cannot recommend highly

Pros: Very well appointed in a lovely setting close to a supermarket, a beautiful sandy beach and a selection of restaurants plus a pleasant walk into town. The properly was clean, comfortable, well equipped and we loved the outside shower which was useful if more than one person. We also loved the swimming pool ❤️

Cons: The only thing that would have been better is if it had 2 bathrooms, or at least 2 toilets. Otherwise it was perfect.

Very enjoyable, relaxing, comfortable stay. Loved it

Pros: Beautiful views, near beach and a few restaurants. Ideally you would need a car but it was extremely hot so we were happy by the sea a lot of the time. Gorgeous pool. Spotlessly clean apartment and pool. Comfy beds. Helpful for taxis, daytrips, airport transfers etc. Lovely stay. Would definitely return

Cons: The only thing I didn't like was that we received a long email mail prior to our stay about how it was our responsibility to manage the different bins properly. Would have preferred to just receive that info at the apartment as we are on hols and it wasn't a great start to welcome us, but once we arrived the welcome was lovely and everyone was very helpful

Rive Sea holiday July 2024

Pros: Location was fabulous. Swimming pool was lovely and very clean. Eliana our host was very friendly and helpful. Apartment had everything we needed for our stay. Nearby beach is a short walk away and was clean and sandy. Castellammare is a lovely picturesque town with lots of places to eat and is a good base for exploring the area.

Cons: No air conditioning in downstairs bedroom meant that it was a little too hot overnight, but other than that, it was perfect.
