Great location, right on water, very short drive to town, 5-10.

Louis France

We loved the location along the Mediterranean and the history of this villa. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The onsite restaurant served an impeccable multi course meal from fresh, local ingredients, including wine and an aperitif for a very affordable price. The wait staff made us feel welcome and at home. We will definitely stay here when we revisit Italy. Loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves.

Amanda United States of America

A beautiful villa located right on the water. Many rooms have a view of the sea; though ours did not, there is a beautiful terrace where we relaxed watching the view with a glass of wine. Parking lot included in price.

Michele United States of America

The ocean view was absolutely beautiful, big windows let in the breeze. The staff went way above and beyond - we had checked out and got stuck in town when the local taxis would just not come. Afraid we'd miss our train back to the airport, I called the hotel and they sent someone to pick us up and bring us to the train station. They rescued us and we are so grateful!

Roberta United States of America

We paid $20 for an upgrade and it was definitely worth it! This was the most spacious and tastefully decorated room of the hotels we stayed at in Italy. Both of our large windows had views of the ocean. The bed was comfortable, there was a full mirror in the room, the bathroom was big, with a great shower, and the hotel itself was beautiful. The restaurant was top notch with very beautiful views and had one of the best meals that I had in Italy. You get so much more than what you pay for.

Stacy United States of America

A beautiful mansion turned into hotel. Staff was wonderful. Room was roomy with a wonderful view. Linens were wonderful.

Morris United States of America

Very friendly and professional staff. Great View and cute room.

Anonymous Italy

Spotless rooms, great location in terms of proximity to the water.

Anonymous United States of America

Nice facilities with great sea views (swimming pool, outside balcony, and breakfast area). Closed territory with parking places.

Denys Norway

The general look of the place, a renovated liberty building with original features. The room was spotless
