Amazing hospitality, perfect location, beautiful room, delicious breakfast every morning, top notch restaurant! All the amenities you need in a hotel!

Kari, United States of America

The hotel is perfect but the staff were the true star! Very friendly, attentive and accomodating when you need them and completely invisible when you want to be left alone. Would definately come back. Thank you!

Bill, United States of America

To name a few: -We loved the staff friendliness and warm welcome upon arrival -The infinity pool -The top floor views with lounge chairs -Swimming in the azure Mediterranean just a few steps from the hotel. Beach is crowded on sunny days but that is bella Italy!! -The cheery yellow and white decor -Staff interactions including desk managers, housekeeping ladies, restaurant service the pool maintenance staff, and the owner. They have become friends in only 4 days and we miss them. -We did not opt to include the breakfast Heffez, but it looked phenomenal!!! The town is also beautiful and has great walking. Book this hotel!

The staff's kindness, enthusiasim and prompt service made this hotel a wonderful place to stay. Rooms were clean and relatively quiet, but my favorite thing was the location and views! Cute striped awnings and decor!

The driver took us to the train station, for our return

Thomas, United States of America

The hotel was immaculately cared for. The complimentary aperitivo upon arrival was a nice beginning to our stay. The beach bag in each room to use for the pool or the beach is also an amazing touch. Beach towels provided, breakfast was very good.

Old property and certainly overvalued. Even though you can see that the owners have tried to invest in this property at some point in time, no it looks outdated. The room we stayed at, was old as well and the bathroom was smelly. We did not complain at the property because we were there only for one night. If they fix/renovate the rooms, the hotel will be super.
Amazing staff, kind, friendly and super willing to assist. Great location and nice view. Nice terrace and quiet.
