Therasia Resort Sea and SPA

We spent our honeymoon here and it exceeded expectations! The staff were incredible and attentive, especially Maria. The breakfast was vast and varied. Our room was beautiful. We had excellent massages. I highly recommend the yoga class with Valeria, which was so special. The highlight though was the 5 course tasting menu at Il Cappero. There was so much food and the service was first class. Such a special time at Therasia, I highly recommend it.

Absolutely beautiful, really friendly and helpful STAFF and the most incredible location of anywhere I’ve stayed in Europe. The rooms are extremely comfortable and the food we enjoyed it so much we increased our stay by four days as we did not want to return.

We stayed here for 5 nights as a family of four. This is a wonderfully located and truly relaxing resort.
We were greeted at the gates (after a very easy transfer from the ferry port) by the wonderful Maria who gave us a superb tour of the resort and was continually helpful, attentive and charming throughout our stay. She is an absolute star here and helped organise and recommend loads of activities including a private boat trip to the neighbouring islands, diving and a hiking tour of the volcnano crater (led by the fantastic Santi - I’d definitely check this one out).
The location is stunning with great view of the Faraglioni rocks and the coast of Lipari. At sunset this has to be one of the best views of any sunset in the Mediterranean and I never tired of watching the sun dip beneath the sea with a smear of orange and gold.
The cactus gardens and grounds are also beautifully kept and the pool and public area of the hotel are clean and luxurious.
The staff with just one exception were really wonderful and we felt welcomed and looked after in the numerous restaurants and bars. Special shout out to Michaela and Lamin for making us feel at home and welcome. Our only bad experience was at breakfast one morning where the staff member was rude, abrupt and just got our order almost entirely wrong and then lied when we asked for it to be fixed. It shows how just one bad staff member can taint a hotel but we let the team know and I hope they deal with it.
We had rooms 126 and 127 and they both had fabulous views and were well appointed. Housekeeping were excellent here - super helpful and polite and the rooms were always restocked and immaculately cleaned. The mini bar, espresso coffee and lots of water are included in the room which is a nice touch especially when you consider some of the highish prices around the resort.
On that note, we thought the resort offered fair value given the quality and service although €18 for a single glass of white wine is a little steep maybe.
They are also multiple restaurants here to choose from and we ate at them all, from both 1 star Michelin restaurants, the restaurant by the pool and the excellent pizza restaurant. We had good meals everywhere and I even had a Pizza tasting menu which was a great first for me. I’ve left separate restaurant reviews where appropriate.
The gym and spa were also very well equipped and spacious and had good air con throughout. We enjoyed using these facilities a lot.
Also make sure you walk down to the sea entry point - it is very well designed, has a lifeguard and the water is clear, cool and beautiful. The resort also runs a regular shuttle service to the town which is helpful and a great way to visit the beaches and local shops and restaurants.
A few small points which perhaps need addressing at a 5 star level. Room 127 had an almost unworkably small bathroom where the door closed onto the toilet and it was a squeeze for two people to use. This was a feature of the 2 level room design and was offset by the amazing room itself and huge balcony.
The price for drinks in most places was at the top end but then the service and quality was excellent. There were always good sunbeds (lovely double ones) by the pool but we were occasionally denied more than 2 towels despite there being 4 of us which confused me. And maybe breakfast could do with a few more options but that is being quite picky but the choice is a little below other 5 star hotels we have stayed at.
Overall we had a fabulous time at the resort and would definitely recommend it.

🌟🌅 **Heaven on Earth at Therasia Resort!**

From the moment we arrived, Therasia Resort on the volcanic isle of Vulcano captured our hearts, providing not just a holiday, but an experience we will cherish forever. This was no ordinary stay; it was a celebration of our engagement, made unforgettable by the resort's exemplary staff and world-class service.

A heartfelt **grazie mille** to Maria, who welcomed us to paradise and was a treasure trove of great advice throughout our stay. Each morning, Stefania greeted us with her lovely smile at breakfast and served us with elegance at the iconic Michelin-starred Il Cappero. Lillo, the gin master, charmed us daily with his friendliness and suaveness, crafting the perfect gin cocktails that enhanced our evenings.

Special thanks to the wonderful lady at Bar Russuri and Michelin-starred vegetarian restaurant Tenerumi (apologies, as her name escapes me), who made our degustation experience delightful with exquisite cocktails. 🍸🍽️

Therasia's location is simply stunning—perched on a promontory with mesmerising sunsets that paint the sky, a tranquil pool to lounge by, and close proximity to Lipari and the other beautiful Aeolian Islands for exciting day trips. The natural beauty of Stromboli and the Tyrrhenian Sea added a dramatic backdrop to our idyllic retreat. 🏝️🌋

To everyone at Therasia, **grazie mille**! You've ensured that Therasia will always have a special place in our hearts. We can't fault anything about our stay—it was flawless and beyond our expectations. We shall return!

**Grazie mille, e a presto!** 💖🇮🇹

Surprisingly wonderful resort… very friendly staff and little niceties like free mini-bar and coffee at room. All very charming.. much nicer as on pics on website btw.

We love this place. It's a bit of a journey to get here but the setting is wonderful, the food fantastic and the staff are amazing

Rooms are perfect and clean, view and pool are amazing, can not see a more beautiful sunset any where else.

But the head waiter at The Caper Restaurant is over limit, there were 5 us, about $240 euro each, a 9 course dinner, in my opening very overpriced, with very expensive wine list. he very rudely told us not to talk to each other, and we were not allowed to go to washroom unless we let him know 30 minutes in advance :( we didn't want to make any noise, we followed his ORDERS, but told the front the next day.

I recommend this hotel, but don't stay for their food Na.. restaurant.
