Classical beachfront beauty
Overlooking the beautiful Ionian Sea and with direct access to a long stretch of beach on Sicily’s picturesque east coast, the Delta Hotels by Marriott Giardini Naxos is an upscale hotel set in lush gardens with views over to majestic Mount Etna.
Rooms, decorated with traditional Italian flair, are plush and sophisticated with antique-style furnishings, classical art and elegant granite bathrooms. All have furnished balconies, most offering fine sea vistas to lose yourself in.
Relax in the lush tropical gardens, take a dip in the infinity pool, or unwind at the tranquil spa and wellness centre, which offers indulgent treatments and salt-water hydrotherapy. The main restaurant serves up gourmet takes on traditional Sicilian cuisine, and boasts amazing sea views from its outdoor terrace. Bars range from a laid-back beachside option – ideal for a sunset cocktail – to a cosy lounge offering delicious Italian pastries, and breakfast is served buffet-style each morning.
With its unbeatable location on the Ionian Riviera, the hotel is within strolling distance of some of the island’s best beaches. Taormina, a 10-minute drive away, is a relaxed spot for an excursion, set in a spectacular hilltop forest with historic ruins and an array of bars and restaurants.
A sophisticated resort with a luxurious spa, this hotel is also within easy reach of some of Sicily’s most beautiful and unspoilt seaside towns.

Good to know
Just so you know, the beach club is open between June and September. An entrance fee of €25 is payable for the beach club, unless you're staying in a Deluxe or Superior room type, in which case access is complimentary. The fee includes one beach umbrella and two sunbeds. For all room types access to the beach and pool is subject to availability, and cannot be reserved in advance. The Beach Club is open from June through September, weather permitting. On the day of departure, the use of sunbeds and beach umbrellas is permitted until 12 noon.
There may be a reduced range of facilities available during the quieter months (April, May, September and October). This means selected restaurants and outdoor hotel facilities, for example pools and waterparks (if applicable), may be closed during your stay.
Certified sustainable
A hotel features our 'Certified Sustainable' label when it holds an active sustainability certification from an independent, third-party organisation that features on the ABTA/ANVR list of recognised certifications. These schemes have been assessed against internationally recognised sustainability standards, including the Global Sustainable Tourism Council criteria.
