A family run hotel. Pool area was nice with lovely views. Delicious food at family restaurant at the end of the short driveway. Giuseppe was one of the most hardworking people we've met. He was so helpful and attentive to his guests, Thank you Giuseppe for all the lifts.

Stunning sunset views overlooking the town
Hotel located in a quiet area up in the hills.
The owners Giuseppe and Kelly made our stay a happy and enjoyable.
The went out of their way to make up feel very welcomed and even driving us to places that we wanted to visit.
We definitely come back to the same Hotel.
Thank you for Colella family hospitality
We had a very pleasant, relaxing and fun time at the hotel. We especially liked gorgeous view, a pool and hot tubes at the outside area. We got a big, clean and comfortable room with a terrace. Giuseppe was very helpful in terms of transport and advice on food content (Our daughter has food allergy). We miss already the place and would like to return again.
Stayed last year and returned with friends, it didn't disappoint us or friends. The hotel is out of the town centre but has fantastic views of Forio bay. The owners (Colella family) can't do enough for you, nothing is any trouble, from giving lifts to and from places, as well as providing lunches when staying by the small pool area. Guiseppe and his wife Kelly along with Tina (Guiseppe's mother) also operate a restaurant just 1 minute walk down from the hotel, called La Casereccia, fantastic food and service and frequented by locals from all over Ischia. Will certainly be going back!
The best choice and would certainly return to this hotel. Giuseppe! the owner was extremely welcoming and sought to make us as comfortable as possible. We were met at the port and were also offered complimentary lifts to and from the town centre each day, Giuseppe even went as far as to drive us to The Poseidon Natural Park one morning.
Just returned from a two week holiday at the Hotel, the owners Giuseppe and Kelly made us feel very welcome upon arrival, the rooms and pool area's are set up a steep bank and gives lovely view of Forio and the coastline. Continental breakfast's are served in the large restaurant with some outside seating at the bottom of the steep bank. The restaurant called "La Caserrechie" offers excellent food at reasonable prices and is often busy and frequented by locals. The staff are very attentive and polite and speak good English.With the Hotel being about 1 mile out of Forio town centre the hotels mini bus will drop you off and pick you up at suitable times, local buses also operate and are not expensive. A very relaxing and enjoyable experience which we intend to do again, soon! The owners and staff really make this Hotel.
Giuseppe and his wife Kelly were most welcoming and helpful, collecting me when lost and offering lifts to Forio and helpful advice. The room was a good size, clean and comfortable. The terrace had great views and I enjoyed sitting out there at night looking at the stars and fireflies! It was lovely to be surrounded by nature. Their restaurant only 100m away served some excellent food and the staff were all very nice. I certainly hope to have the opportunity to be a guest again. Thank you.
Afte you trudge the hill to your accommodation from reception, you realise the effort was well worth it. The view from room veranda was spectacular. From the family who run the hotel to the staff in the restaurant we received the best of service and have to mention Lorenzo's chocolate souflee which is the best ever. Roberto and Enzo looked after us with friendliness and fervour despite the occasional language differences. Overall would definitely recommend hotel but be warned as hill is not for the fainthearted and anyone with breathing difficulties or disablement should be warned. Island is beautiful and lots of different cultural and leisure facilities to fill your days from gardens to beaches and thermal spas. Travelling to these sights though a little more difficult if you depend on the buses. Don't in any way be fooled by the timetables and expect to stand and discover you've stepped on the wrong bus AGAIN. Weather superb but look out for the mosquitos.
Views excellent, food better than any other restaurant. Lovely friendly helpful family place. Bit of a climb to pool and rooms but worth it. Pool good to cool down and kids to play. Guiseppe organised scooter to explore island. Best way.
This is a great place! The staff was very accommodating and pleasant and the food at their restaurant was great. The room was perfect for us; basic, clean, bright, and they cleaned everyday. The hotel is a bit out of the way (and a big hill to climb to get to the rooms) but that made for great views and good exercise-we loved it. Also we appreciated being away from the bustling downtown. The pool and hot tub were nice but needed a little maintenance. Beer in the vending machine-by the pool-was an added perk. Overall we would definitely go here again and recommend it to friends! Great for couples and families alike.
We had a little problem at the start which was quickly resolved. It is a family run business in every sense of the word by the time we left we felt like we had been adopted. A very warm and humerous atmosphere. The staff were extremely helpful, rooms kept very clean, air con worked well. A bit of a trek up to the room but the view on the way more than made up for it and it kept you fit! The whole family go above and beyond to make your stay a memorable experience.....they work extremely hard yet still found time to drop us off and pick us up around Forio within 10-15 min waiting time night & day at no extra cost.....Myself , my sister and my daughter all had an amazing time at Poggio Del Sole even the other guests were varied , sociable and considerate......would reccomend it to everyone who can make it up the hill. We would 100percent stay there again, we plan to in the near future.

The entire experience at the hotel
The entire experience at the hotel was fantastic. The surroundings were like being in paradise. The atmosphere was like being with family. The food was unsurpassable. I highly recommend the hotel and hope to return next year.
Hotel familial avec piscine. Nous avons apprécié la chambre, assez vaste pour une famille avec 4 enfants. Jardinet devant. Petit-déjeuner au restaurant, a quelques pas de l'hôtel (avec une grande pente entre les 2). La piscine aurait besoin de plus d'entretien mais est très appréciable. Literie bonne, panorama magnifique! A 1,5 km de la plage. Parking (très) petit. A refaire? Oui!
Billederne er taget med en kærlig hånd og lever ikke op til virkeligheden. Poolen og dækket er meget småt. Værelserne små og elendige senge. Morgenmaden den dårligste vi nogensinde har fået på et hotel. Og wifi virkede først, efter at have rykket flere gange. Men personalet er super søde og hjælpsomme. Skal være opmærksom på, at lufthavnstransport betyder hentes ved færgen på øen, og ved den havn, hvor der kun går meget få færger til.
Nous avons passé 4 supers nuits à l'hôtel Poggio del sole, vue et terrasse magnifique depuis la chambre. Accueil de Giuseppe et Roberto très sympathique, ils nous ont descendus dans le centre pour prendre l'autobus à plusieurs reprises (à pied, cela prend 20min). Ils sont de bons conseils pour les visites, n'hésitez pas à leur demander ! Le restaurant propose une cuisine de qualité, ne surtout pas manquer les pasta al limone, al vongole, les raviolis de lapin et le tiramisu al limone : ces plats sont succulents. Petit déjeuner bien.
Ho trascorso una notte al Poggio Del Sole.
Posto belissimo, vista stupenda e personale impecabile e molto vicino ai ospiti.
Al Hotel apartiene il ristorante sotto ( La Casareccia ) Ristorante buonoissimo con Camerieri Bravissimi.
Il Propretario Giuseppe Porta avanti la struttura con grande Passione.
L hotel ha anche una Piscina e un whirpool.
Lunica cosa che si Potrebbe migliorare e il rinovo delle Piscine.
Dell resto e da consigliare. ci torneremo.
Condizionatore non funzionale la vasca jacuzzi era poco funzionante la piscina piccolissima rispetto alle visioni delle foto una lentezza ai servizi tavoli molte zanzare una sera mancando l'acqua il giorno dopo la tubazione dello sciacquone non dava acqua. Forte disagio.

Hotel hat sehr schönen Meerblick. Lage ist auf einer Anhöhe über Forio.
Zimmer werden jeden Tag gereinigt.
Quando ho prenotato questo albergo mi sono fidato dalle foto ed dalle recensioni. Arrivato la era totalmente diverso dalle foto ed una collezione così pessima non l’ Mai trovata da nessuna parte. Sconsiglio assolutamente questo albergo
Vi blev budt hjerteligt velkommen af hotellets søde ejer, som gav et lidt fra havnen i Forio. Hotellet ligger ca 20 min gang fra Forio by og har en smuk udsigt over området med de tronende bjerge i baggrunden. Vi nød særligt solnedgangen. Der er et lille men hyggeligt poolområde og så er det et must at booke bord på hotellets restaurant ‘la Casereccia’ ! Herlig mad med moderen bad gryderne og skønne og hyggelige omgivelser - smag deres Rabbit ravioli! Det eneste men er at sengen er ret hård.
Helt fantastiskt hotell och jag rekommenderar det verkligen!!.
Helt bedårande utsikt, extremt bra service och maten på restaurangen var så god att vi åt där varje kväll!!
Ska man bo på Ischia ska man verkligen välja detta hotell!!
Hotel molto semplice ma essenziale è situato in collina rispetto al centro di Forio. Il proprietario è una persona molto disponibile ed effettua una sorta di servizio navetta (a chiamata). Il ristorante si cucina bene ed i prezzi, però, sono leggermente sopra la media, la qualità sì sa si paga. Le camere godono tutte di una vista spettacolare ed immerse nel pieno relax della montagna retrostante e possono usufruire di una piccola piscina e una vasca idromassaggio e sedie a sdraio. Unico neo: le camere non hanno le zanzariere. Per i bambini, se non si va in auto, non lo consiglio, perché le fermate dei bus non sono proprio vicine. Nel complesso, comunque, è un Buon Bed and Breakfast: COMPLIMENTI
Úžasny rodinný přístup. Výborná italská restaurace. Nic není problém. Pokud Ischia tak jedině u Giuseppeho :-)

We had to stay in another place for the first night because the hotel was overbooked!
This place was not with airco and was not good enough.
Fortunatley the next room was very Nice with a beautiful view over the sea.
The breakfast is simple. The rooms are clean. There is a Nice small swimmingpool and a hot tube with a beautiful view over the sea.
There is a nice restaurant included.
The place is a bit far from the city and you have to climb at a hill.
The owner Giuseppe is very willing to bring you by car to every place you want.
Vi spenderade 2 veckor på Poggio del Sole och vi fick ta del av familjen Colellas fantastiska gästfrihet och omtanke. Allt från skjuts till stranden eller ner i stan, till att enkelt hjälpa till med förslag på aktiviteter och arrangemang kring dem. Här kommer vi tillbaka!
The Hotel has an excellent italian restaurant .Regional cuisine. Typical tasty dishes.
The owners are always available to help, to bring you. You feel at home, in a family.
The hotel is in a lovely location with beautiful views. The food was amazing and Guiseppe and Kelly are some of the most friendly and helpful people, i have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Guiseppe offered transport to and from attractions and sights.
I would recommend this place to anyone,as we felt very relaxesd and at home int his lovely place.
Excelent value for money.
Helt underbart hotell för oss och jag rekommenderar det verkligen om ni vill ha ett lugnt hotell med mysig familjekänsla. Letar du dock efter ett superlyxigt charterhotell med roomservice och stor pool så är det här hotellet inget för dig. Du kommer behöva gå en hel del vilket jag inte hade gjort på de gatorna med småbarn. Frukosten var okej men cappuccinon var toppen! Maten och atmosfären på den egna restaurangen var suverän (och vinet var billigt och gott!!!).
Rekommenderar verkligen att åka till Poseidon Thermal Bath i Forio. Guiseppe från hotellet körde oss.
