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

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.

A stunning place

We had a very enjoyable stay, the hotel is very elegant and the location breathtaking, The (salt water) pool area is particularly nice. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms were spacious and simply decorated, the only downside was that we had a memory foam mattress which we personally don't get on with.

Abbiamo passato 5 giorni in tranquillità... PRO: location fenomenale bellissima a picco sul mare con piscina. Condizionatore in camera. Tranquillità assoluta. Ottima cena. Personale sempre cortese e dispinibile. Vicinanza a tutti i punti di interesse della zona. 200 mt dalla grotta della zinzulusa. 5 mt dalla grotta azzurra. Pochi minuti di macchina da s. Cesaria Terme e 20 minuti circa da s. Maria di leuca e otranto. CONTRO: forse 4 stelle sono troppo... Cambio lenzuola dopo 4 gg, menù del ristorante sempre uguale e poco vario, bagno in camera piccolino con un phon senza adattatore, scrivania traballante. Noi abbiamo scelto una standard magari scegliendo una camera superiore la situazione cambia. Comunque un buon posto dove trascorrere qualche giorno di vacanza.

A very run down hotel

What a shame with a Nice location. The entire hotel was very run down and it was very clear no one had Done anything for many years. The pool area was very dissapointing with the pool not cleaned and the bar looked 30 years old. Rotten Wood and Filthy sunbed linnen. The rooms are really old and beds in poor standard.

Sospesi tra mare e cielo

Hotel situato a picco sulla scogliera di Castro con una vista mozzafiato! Le camere sono dislocate sulla scogliera seguendo le linee di livello del terreno e sono tutte con terazzino o piccolo "giardinetto" privato vista mare. Abbiamo soggiornato in una camera family con due ampie stanze separate (entrambe con letto matrimoniale e armadi), e il bagno in comune situato nel disimpegno di collegamento. Il bagno è grande con doccia chiusa da una tenda. Pulizia complessiva buona. La struttura è dotata di piscina con acqua di mare, dipinta di blu notte, poco invitante e un tantino sporchetta. Da segnalare che in luglio già alle ore 18:00 la zona è in ombra. Una scalinata di 192 scalini collega l'area con il mare sottostante, dove si trova una piccola piattaforma. Favolosa la sala colazione, dove ti sembra di essere sospeso tra mare e cielo. Buona la colazione con dolce, salato e frutta.

The cliff top setting is magical, and the view from the restaurant and public room absolutely stunning. Our stay was made so much better with the help of the very helpful owners who helped book restaurants and trips to places we would not have otherwise found. The Castro Wine festival was a final bonus that made our stay very memorable. Lovely saltwater pool and the best morning swim down a set of steep steps to the sea. Thank you. It will be very hard not to come again. The hotel is spread out and requires some walking, but h LP is there for baggage and The payoff is a healthy appetite and and privacy with individual views of the sea through or over the pines and Cypresses
