The hotel is lovely and the pictures really do not do it justice. There is a lot of indoor and outdoor space including in the gardens just to sit and contemplate life or have a conversation. The proximity to the beach is excellent and the beach service is spot on and the sea very safe to swim in. If you want to reserve an umberella and sunbeds it costs €20/ day. A small cafe services the beach and a short walk down the beach are a number of beach bars. There is also a small supermarket 20 meters from the hotel entrance. Our room was quiet, had a garden and sea view and was away from the main hotel, so lovely and quiet for us. The only down side being that while there was a table and two chairs on the balcony, you had to play solitaire everytime you wanted to move or open/ close the shutters, so it wasn't practical to sit on the balcony. Flip flops are also supplied along with bath robes and fluffy towels. Without exception, all the staff are amazing, friendly, welcoming and helpful even though our Italian was poor. The restaurant host/ maître d' was one of the best I have ever come across in a resort hotel, the staff in the dining room worked so very hard but always had time to smile and talk. The food at breakfast and dinner was of a good quality and once you got used to deciding what you wanted for dinner at breakfast it all went well. The hotel did what we wanted to and that was to help us wind down and relax. There is entertainment every evening, but it got a bit repetitive and there was no where quiet to go and have a drink as the doors to the main bar area were propped open for the staff to walk in and out of to service the outside areas. The hotel is about a 30 minute walk into Forio, a 5 minute walk to the nearest bus route and a 15 minute walk to the Giardini La Mortella. We'd go back again, which is always our measure of a good stay.
