Bottom Line

The small, 26-room La Battigia sits right on a sandy beach well equipped with lounge chairs and umbrellas. It’s also within easy reach of Castellammare del Golfo and other coastal cities in northwest Sicily, though without a car, the property is fairly isolated. Rooms are bright and basic, and were given a refresh in 2016, with new bedspreads and artwork. It’s an affordable value for the area and for travelers looking for a beach stopover.

Oyster Hotel Review

Hotel La Battigia

Scene

Casual and slightly trendy, with a beach-y vibe

There’s a pleasing and casual beach-y feeling throughout the property with subtle wave patterns everywhere, including over-bright tiles on the front desk and bar. The restaurant is large, with a covered outdoor deck overlooking the sea. The beach is clean and well outfitted with loungers and umbrellas, and the small pool area, though not very shaded, also has a pleasing view of the water.

Location

Off the water in a residential area, with other locales within driving distance

The hotel is right on the beach between Trapani and Palermo in Alcamo Marina, a small residential area on the waterfront. The city of Alcamo, a 20-minute car trip away, is a non-touristy area with cafes and shops. The seaside town of Castellammare del Golfo is also close by, about 15 minutes west when driving. By car, Segesta is 30 minutes south, Trapani and Erice around 45 minutes to an hour west, and Palermo about an hour east.

Rooms

Clean and large, but very simple

The decently sized, blue-tile-floored rooms were given a colorful update in 2016, with fresh coats of marine-blue paint and new pieces of art on the walls and bronze-and-brown-patterned covers on the beds. In the rooms (which range from Standard units to Suites) are small, wall-mounted flat-screen TVs, minibars, safes, and hairdryers. Bathrooms have a similar blue color scheme and are outfitted with small stall showers with futuristic looking jets. Some rooms have lovely sea views.

Features

Well-equipped beach, with a small pool overlooking the water; on-site restaurant as well

La Battigia is on a sandy beach with sun beds provided free of charge, a bar, and a beach volleyball court. There’s a free buffet breakfast and the restaurant serves lunch and dinner, though the food is on the basic side. The hotel also hosts banquets and weddings. Small pets are accepted, and La Battigia offers airport transfers, guided tours, laundry service, and pay parking upon request.
