Great stay

Great location. Breakfast, lunch and dinner had something for everyone. Pools were nice. Bigger pool needs bigger loungers though. Right on beach . Staff were great.

Tolle Aussicht

Schönes Zimmer, tolle Anlage. Super Sicht auf die Bucht. Leckeres Frühstück. Etwas befremdlich finde ich, dass bei einem Privatstrand mit kostenlosen Schirmen und Liegen 5€ pro Strandtuch/Tag verlangt werden. Schade, dass das Hotel nicht mehr Wert auf Nachhaltigkeit legt. Die Säfte beim Frühstück wurden in Plastikbechern angeboten.

Buono, da tornare

Villaggio molto carino e ben organizzato, esterni puliti e tenuti alla grande. Bagnino eccellente, meticoloso e preciso nella cura del lido privato dall'hotel. Buona pure l'animazione. Personale gentile e cucina in linea con le caratteristiche del villaggio

Disappointed

The hotel is not very close to anything and walking outside the hotel I would not recommend. Roads are busy and steep hills. Nothing really around you. Rooms are very old and damp. Hotel music very loud until midnight at times. Pool and beach are adequate.

Reler bom preço

Quarto confortável, chuveiro quente, muito limpo, bem na frente da praia, duas piscinas ótimas e o melhor de tudo o atendimento de TODOS os colaboradores, disponíveis e simpáticos. A única reclamação é sobre a comida, falta de frutas variadas no café e jantar muito fraco.

Es gibt bessere Hotels für diesen Preis

Positiv zu erwähnen ist die Außenanlagen inkl. Pool. Diese ist schön uns sehr gepflegt. Unser Zimmer war leider sehr abgewohnt und spartanisch eingerichtet. Da bekommt man woanders mehr geboten. Die Preise an der Bar sind etwas unverschämt und entsprechen nicht dem sonst üblichen italienischen Niveau. Besonders negativ ist der Kaffee zu bewerten. Das ist kein Kaffee, sondern eine regelrechte Zumutung. Leider insgesamt nicht zu empfehlen

E' il terzo anno che soggiorno alla Baia d'Ercole e, come sempre, trovo la località stupenda con un mare altrettanto stupendo, il villaggio incantevole, personale accogliente e disponibile, una cucina buona e varia con un direttore di sala instancabile e cordialissimo. Nell'insieme possiamo dirci molto soddisfatti: già, ero con mia moglie!

The good, the bad and the ugly.

Well location, location, location this hotel certainly has it rignht on the water the beach 50 ft from our door, BUT our little apartment (2 bedrooms, bath and outside summer kitchen) was in dire need of an update. The bed was worse than just cloth covered plywood as the coils dug into you all night long. The bathroom was downright horrid with mold on the ceiling and sand and dirt showing up in the shower after using it and tiles missing. The furniture also needed updating. They say they have air conditioning but they turn it off at 1 AM and you are left feeling quite hot and humid by dawn. The restaurant is a buffet for 18 euros, but even the veggies are cold, we drove 1.8 km away to a nice restaurant and ate for almost half that price and got what we wanted and hot. The grounds of the hotel are very well kept with a nice pool and beach which are a plus, but if they want people to come back they need a major overhaul on the rooms.
