Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a few drawbacks like the lack of natural light in the rooms and the small size without a wardrobe, but apart from that, there were no major complaints. The staff were helpful, warm, and accommodating, especially to our kids who enjoyed playing freely. The location was convenient, just a short walk from the beach. The dining experience was good with an extensive menu available outside in the garden.
The room was clean and as shown in photos but not very cozy with almost no daylight due to closed curtains, only fluorescent light. The service was above my expectations - very helpful and extremely friendly despite the language barrier. The location was secluded and tricky to find at night using GPS, but it's perfect, just a few minutes' walk from the beach. The dining experience was great with fresh pastries and silver pots of coffee. The hotel facilities were satisfactory, but some areas could use an update.
The hotel is a bit far from the beaches and is a bit messy. It's secluded and difficult to find at night using GPS. However, it's perfect, just a few minutes walk from the beach and is situated in a quiet location within a Tuscany forest.
The hotel's location is secluded but easy to reach the beach. The rooms were not cozy due to lack of daylight but had a balcony with a queen bed and bunk beds. The service was helpful and thoughtful, despite language barriers. Dining was extensive and enjoyable in the garden. The facilities were good, though the area felt lonely at night and during high temperatures.
The hotel offers simple and minimalistic rooms that are clean and efficient, though slightly small and lacking balconies. However, overall, there is nothing much to complain about in terms of room comfort. The service was exceptional, especially catering to our tired-looking room and ensuring our kids had a great time interacting with others. The location may be a bit far from the beaches, looking messy and unprofessional, but it does provide a secluded atmosphere with beautiful surroundings. The dining experience was not entirely satisfying, with limited options and occasional missing items from orders. Despite the shortcomings, the facilities are noteworthy, making the stay pleasant overall.
