Views are incredible. Best gym, sauna and pool we saw while in Italy. Go into town for food though; it very very pricey at the hotel compared to local restaurants. Ride up the coast to Recco for uncrowded beaches and the best street food and gelato. Be prepared to walk as in any place in Italy, but especially at the coast it is not flat! ##### Brittany Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ben 5 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities So rarely do you actually get a 5 start hotel that actually lives up to that accolade, but this one does. Room and property was beautiful, breakfast and bar lovely but the staff throughout excelled and actually made the 5 star service you would expect. From check in, to bar staff, restaurant and room maids everyone made you feel welcomed with so many little extras to spoil you and make your stay that little bit more special. Truly an excellent stay. Thank you so much. ##### Ben Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### megan 20 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Great spa and pool ##### megan Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julia 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice property with great service ##### Julia Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jean 15 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful special place ##### Jean Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elias 21 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The property is a true five star hotel.

Staff could not have been more helpful. Food and service were excellent. Only criticism was the lack of a shuttle service to the centre of town which, given the position of the hotel on top of a hill, the high cost of local taxis and the high temperatures, made it difficult for older customers or those with mobility difficulties. ##### John Stayed 10 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Raymond 12 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent hotel with a beautiful infinity pool and hot tub overlooking the ocean. ##### Raymond Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ken 24 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Off season amazing place to stay.
