Overview

 
Overlooking a wide sweep of golden sand with front-row views across the Bay of Naxos to Mount Etna, Delta Hotels by Marriott Giardini Naxos is made for slow, sun-drenched Sicilian days. Expect a classic resort feel with contemporary Marriott touches: a reserved section of beach*, sea-facing pool terrace, spa with thermal area*, and generously sized rooms, many with superb sea views from their balconies. The lively promenade of Giardini Naxos is moments away, yet the hotel itself feels like a calm, coastal retreat.

From sunrise over the Ionian Sea to fiery sunsets behind Mount Etna, this beachfront Sicilian address is all about the views. Glide between the sea-facing pool, the hotel’s reserved stretch of sand* and the palm-dotted gardens, then linger over aperitivo in the lobby bar or a long, lazy dinner of local flavours on the terrace. For couples or families seeking Sicily (Catania Airport)’s charm with everything at your feet, Delta Hotels by Marriott Giardini Naxos delivers the perfect balance. It’s approximately 1 hour 30 minutes from the airport. See more Italy holidays.

Map & location


Giardini Naxos, Sicily (Catania Airport), Italy

Set directly on the seafront in Giardini Naxos, this hotel places you between the golden sands of Naxos Bay and the low-key bars and trattorias of the promenade. The resort itself is relaxed and family-friendly, with a long coastline, archaeological sites and easy day trips up to chic Taormina or out towards Mount Etna and Isola Bella.

The waterfront promenade starts almost at the hotel’s doorstep, so you can be sipping an espresso or Sicilian spritz within moments. Yet the palm-framed pool and gardens give the property a tucked-away, resort feel when you’re ready to retreat from the buzz.

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


The hotel’s outdoor freshwater pool is framed by palms and a generous sun terrace with loungers — a relaxed spot for lazy days when you don’t feel like wandering far. Pool towels are provided free of charge, and opening dates typically run from early May to mid-October (weather and occupancy dependent).

Just beyond the pool is the real show-stopper: the beachfront. Delta Hotels by Marriott Giardini Naxos has a reserved section of the public beach with parasols and sunbeds* set up along the sand. It’s here you’ll feel most immersed in the Bay of Naxos, with views back to Taormina and, on clear days, Mount Etna rising in the background.

Use of the private beach area is included for certain upgraded room types (such as Deluxe and Superior Sea View categories, subject to availability). Guests in other room types can still access the reserved area for a local daily fee, which usually covers two sunbeds, an umbrella and towels.

Spa, sports & wellness


Wellness is taken care of with a dedicated spa area (local charges apply) featuring a sauna, steam room, Turkish bath and a menu of massage and beauty treatments. Access is typically for ages 16+ and the spa operates limited afternoon/evening hours, which may vary by season.

For more active guests, there’s a gym equipped with cardio machines, a free-weights space and fixed strength-training equipment, usually open throughout the main season.

You can expect regular evening entertainment in peak months, with live DJ sets and low-key shows creating a relaxed resort atmosphere without overwhelming the hotel’s peaceful vibe.

Food & drink

Days here are anchored around good food and lingering glasses of local wine.

Panarea Restaurant
The main restaurant serves a generous buffet and à la carte mix of Italian, Sicilian and international dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In peak season (roughly May–September) dinner is predominantly buffet-style, while in shoulder months the set-up can shift to more à la carte service depending on occupancy. Expect plenty of fresh pasta, grilled fish, seasonal vegetables and classic desserts. Highchairs and a kids’ menu make it easy for families.

Sciara Restaurant
An à la carte venue for leisurely lunches and dinners, with a focus on regional flavours and fresh local produce. This is the place for a more intimate, dress-up dinner — the hotel asks guests not to wear beachwear and for gentlemen to opt for long trousers in the evening. Reservations are required and supplements may apply depending on your board basis.

Brezza Beach Bar
Set right by the sand, this seasonal beach bar is ideal for light bites, cold beers and spritzes between swims (typically open summer season, limited hours).

Quintessenza Lobby Bar
The social heart of the hotel, open into the night for Italian coffee, cocktails and post-dinner nightcaps.
