The restyling project was enriched by the prestigious collaboration of the Arch. Santa Contarino, who respected the original idea of Arch. Cancila, and conceived an original renovation project, drawing inspiration from the natural scenery of Isola delle Femmine. Indeed, the aim was that to highlight Saracen Sands Hotel’s strengths.

Its stunning position – among Mollica and Raffo Rosso mountains, Capo Gallo and its natural reserve and the charming sea villages of Mondello and Sferracavallo – is perfect for nature lovers. Moreover, the main locations of Western Sicily can be easily reached with organized or private daily tour.

First lot of redesign, launched in February 2017 and completed in just 4 months, gave to Saracen Sands Hotel a new modern façade, enhancing the exterior layout and the common areas.

The new beautiful grass, with lush palm trees, welcomes guests; it perfectly integrates into the natural landscape, enriching the waterfront, as well as the Terrazza Marine, the ultimate relax area.
The large Les Arcades room, has been renovated too, with wide windows overlooking the stunning seafront and showcooking stations. During this phase brand new fitness and wellness areas have been created and some rooms have been restyled.

In autumn 2018 redesign focused on Saracen’s Congress Centre, starting from modular hall, composed by “Politeama”, “Bellini”, “Biondo” halls, and Teatro del Sole – previously Music Hall – one of the biggest meeting rooms in Sicily – setting new wall and floor covering, lights, stage and bar.
The restyling keeps going on.
In March 2019 a new step took place, it was focused on the redesign of the entrance and the hall, working on a better functionality and conviviality of common areas, a more comfortable natural lightening and a cozy design. The management refurbished also some rooms, with new furniture and bathrooms.
