This hotel was very nice. It’s in a great and safe location. It’s a very family oriented hotel, which is wonderful, but we just didn’t know that was really one of their focuses. We were really hoping for something a bit smaller and quieter, but for one night it was very comfortable.

Located near Piazza Nardo - which has a nice sandy beach (added cost) and lots of dining options. Affiliated beach is a 10 min drive away but was worth the visit. Hotel was constantly being cleaned! The services at the spa were great.

We liked the location and the sun deck by the sea. The dining staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and clean. It was disappointing and inconvenient that parking was not included. The quality of the breakfast food was not very good; the hotel should offer fewer choices but with better quality. There were no ramps for ease of transporting luggage up to the reception desk and to the elevator. Poor signage to the pool, it was not easy to find it.

Week end say

Hotel is clean and confortable. But over all ambiance look more like a group Holliday hotel rather than a 4stars hotel. No bar at the beach or swimming pool… a bit disapointing.

Nice getaway

Hotel room was comfortable. Balcony is small and you can barely see the sea. Dinner was good with different set of choices per night. Parking was easy and secure. Pools and the area were nice and comfortable.

Totally relaxing seaside holiday

Exceptional service, clean and comfortable room, large pool, well laid out and attractive garden. Breakfast selection large and good quality, eaten on terrace with sea view, coffee freshly made. Lack of a balcony compensated by exclusive use of clothes dryer on a separate balcony opposite our room. One suggestion for the beach platforms would be to extend them beyond the the rocks, giving access to the sea directly by ladder - we found it slippery clambering over the rocks to get out.

We stayed four nights here and were lucky to have a room at the front with a sea view. The bed was extremely comfy and the room and bathroom spotlessly clean and aircon very efficient. The private “beach” (actually man-made platforms on the rocks with sun loungers) across the road is lovely with friendly lifeguards and great access to the crystal clear water. Top tip: bring rock shoes as the going is rather tough getting into the water! We borrowed free bikes from reception staff(very helpful and friendly) and rode each night to Santa Catarina al Bagno where there’s a small number of excellent restaurants to chose from. (Favourite: Art Nouveau). Only took off one star because of the lack of any extraction in the bathroom (there is a windows least) and the strange playing of music all night in the corridors outside rooms.

Perfect place for a holiday

Fab friendly hotel, all the staff were helpful, nothing to much trouble. Food was amazing and wine included with the buffet style meal 20 euros, booked B&B but ate at hotel every night, think about 3 or4 restaurants at village all looked fab, but better value and food at hotel. Room was large had a superior, air con good but not great, but room was very cool. Free bike hire, and quiet flat if wanting to cycle. Lovely to walk into village , and not to far. A beautiful local resort, would help to have spoken some Italian as not a lot of English spoken in the resort outside of hotel, but got by, everyone really welcoming and friendly. Grounds around hotel stunning, was a wedding, but did not impact on our stay at all. Always room at pool, which has a lifeguard, Will be definitely going back, came home yesterday and miss it already.
