Macchia Valfortore Holidays from £232

Hotel Don Luis closed for the season 30 September. We were moved to a sister property, Hotel Sport Village, for our reservation 1 and 2 October. Sport Village is in the outskirts of Castel di Sangro, just a short distance from Hotel Don Luis. The hotel is modern, with a pool, spa and nice grounds. We happened to be at the hotel during preparations for a lavish wedding; therefore, Sunday breakfast was a giant buffet! We stayed at Sport Village 14 years ago and were pleased with the upgraded condition.

This hotel is wonderful… it’s old-style hospitality at its best, and very romantic. The grounds, pool and beach are fabulous, and spotless. Breakfast is fresh, varied and plentiful… staff friendly and accommodating. There is a mercato not far from the hotel where you can pick up some deli bits, fresh bread and fruit for lunch on your balcony (room has a fridge). Silvi itself has seen better days - although some decent pizzerias, seafood places and gelateria can still be found on the main drag. If you are looking for high end restaurants and shops this location is not for you. But if you are looking for a lovely simple beach break this is perfect.

excellent hotel in a convenient location, everything new and in and nice breakfast

The property is close to the sea and you can easily go for a walk along the seafront at night. Poor information at check-in and various requests not attended or had to wait more than one day. Restaurant and room service badly organized

Mario was fantastic, personable, friendly, and took care of me at check in, booked a restaurant, etc...
