"Beautiful location fabulous hotel. Excellent staff breakfast was over the top! Absolutely wonderful."

"Great property in the off season, imagine it is a lot busier in the summer months. Courteous, helpful staff, ample menu choices and convenient to the little town of San Stefano. "

"The balcony view was lovely, looking at the sea, good size room, with small refrigerator and comfortable bed. Breakfast was varied with pastries, bread, egg options, coffee options, yogurt and fresh fruit "

"The staff at the hotel is amazing from the moment you pull up to the door. I would’ve loved to stay longer it was such a beautiful experience. A special shout out to Marina who makes every guest feel special. The hotel was beautiful, the beach club is phenomenal. Great people, great property."

"The room was fabulous as was the staff. Francesca helped out at the front end suggesting great places to visit nearby. Samantha was the best! She served us breakfast with a smile every day but the one day she was off. She also served us drinks up by the pool. We loved staying here. The spa was closed for maintenance so we only were able to test it out our first day in. The pool was so beautiful but we wish it had been heated. It was very cold!"

"The outstanding location of Hotel Torre di Cala Piccola is what makes it incredible. From swimming in the private cove to having cocktails while watching the sunset, to the staff anticipating and providing for our every need. We had a wonderful stay."

"Il Pellicano is a dream. The property is stunning and exquisitely maintained. The views are breathtaking. The staff is most gracious. The perfect place for a peaceful and restorative getaway. We tried both dining options for dinner--the informal as well as the Michelin-starred dining room--and both were excellent. The latter was one of the best meals we've ever had anywhere, and we're serious food people who live in New York. We'll be back."

"We had a wonderful four days in this amazing beach hotel with its swimming pools and the amazing spa. Be sure to bring your shower caps. Great service from Gabriel and Gataneo along with the great breakfast crew. Special thanks to Jafar. Great job by the housekeeping team kept our room and huge deck clean"

"Lovely rustic escape on the beautiful island of Monte Argentario. House was clean and well equipped, and hosts Carmela and Pier were so warm and helpful with ideas of where to visit and which restaurants to try, as well as local info on the beaches and property. Good base to explore the island, and the local beach is only a 5-10 minute walk and not crowded. We had many playful cat visitors in the gardens as well as lizards and a tortoise, and saw wild boar across the island, so definitely a nature lovers choice. Very relaxing week and could not ask for better hosts for our stay here!Note to the road-nervous - the road to Porto Ercole is unpaved and in poor repair, a hard impractical drive even in an SUV. Nearest shops etc and access around the island is through Porto Santo Stefano 30 mins away so plan your visit with that in mind and be sure to get directions for your first arrival!"
