The Amalfi of Puglia
Amazing gem on a hillside overlooking the sea. Very Italian. Room selection is key to getting the best experience. Simple decor, yet works well. A bit of Amalfi in Puglia.

Awful, rude and rufused a refund
It's such a shame that awful management and upkeep spoiled what could be a lovely hotel. We checked out early because of all the problems we had and were told we would get a refund. Since then the manager has refused to process a refund and respond to messages. I have never felt so ripped off by a hotel This is in NO way a 4-star hotel, the facilities and condition are barely 3 stars. We booked for a week in September to find that our room, a bungalow suite, was shabby, dirty and needed repair. There was no wifi at all in the room and no mobile reception, so we had to ask especially for a coffee machine which seemed to be a problem. The shower didn't work! What was worse was the staff and management. Staff were having audible arguments over breakfast service, we were made to feel like a nuisance for asking for foods which had run out. The cleaning staff just left bags of dirty laundry from other rooms on our porch. A change of management and a refurb is seriously needed

Un hôtel magique
Un séjour juste génial , un endroit magique sur une crique face à la mer . La chambre est très spacieuse un Pt peu ancien mais sa passe . L’airco juste dans la chambre des parents et pas dans la chambre des enfants il cédais 25 degree donc ça allais . Si vous avez peur des bêtes ce n est pas un hôtel pour vous !
Le lit pas hyper confortables dommage et il manque vraiment du café sans les chambres .la piscine très jolie , nous n avons pas bcp profitez de la piscine . En général un bon séjour

panoramico con problemi di accesso al mare
Hotel in posizione panoramica eccellente, dotato di piscina ed accesso al mare .il problema è L accesso al mare , non è specificato che bisogna scalare 192 gradini . La maggior parte dei clienti infatti resta in piscina o va in altri lidi

Très bel hôtel avec vue fantastique
Très bel établissement avec jolie piscine d'eau de mer et un beau restaurant avec vue fantastique sur la mer . Concernant le couchage le site propose plusieurs petits bungalows éparpillés sur le domaine et il y donc beaucoup de montées et descentes et par conséquence d'escaliers, ceci serait très difficile pour une personne a mobilité réduite. Pas de plage avec sable à moins de 20 kms mais l'hôtel à un accès à la mer dans une petite crique après... une descente avec 185 marches !
Mais globalement très bel hôtel calme avec une très bel situation.
