I'd avoid this place in the future
This was the only disappointing stay during our two week trip through Italy. The location is not great if you're interested in traveling to Sorrento and the sights around it. You take a bus that runs almost every hour unless it doesn't, to a train, both were always delayed and really limiting for how much time we could spend exploring the sights. It's only 2.5km from Sorrento, but don't be tricked, those 2.5km are a big deal! It's on cliff, with a really dangerous road you have to pass to get anywhere, including the bus stop, and there's no access to grocery stores anywhere near the place. The owners were also really rude, I wanted to book a boat tour and they straight up told me they wouldn't help me because they thought it was a waste of money. I asked several times and said I knew it would cost money and they just told me no. They also charged a lot for a breakfast which was a pastry, and coffee. The coffee was also not free and no refills!!! They also didn't serve tap water with food, so all water was for a fee. We asked one morning if we could just have coffee (we didn't like the pastries), and the owner said no, you must have all breakfast or nothing. It was incredibly disappointing for the price they charge. The rooms are super bare and aren't worth the money, the bathroom smelled of mold. I would not recommend at all, spend your hard earned money somewhere where they treat you as a guest and not an annoyance.

My recent stay at Baia Serena was absolutely fantastic. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a genuine smile. The room was impeccably clean, comfortable, and had great view. The hotel staff went above and beyond to ensure my needs were met, and their friendliness was exceptional. The location was perfect, allowing easy access to the Amalfi Coast. I highly recommend Baia Serena for an unforgettable stay.

A great base to explore the area
Had a lovely time staying at Baia Serena, we had an amazing view from our balcony, the pool was lovely and the restaurant dining area again had beautiful views. Free Wi-Fi across location was a bonus too. The chalets were abit tired and could have done with more storage and hooks in the kitchen, a lick of paint here and there. However, we had comfortable nights sleep, a hot shower and a hob and fridge. For the price we paid, we did not expect 5 star accommodation and as we are used to the camping/caravan lifestyle, this was a great for us to visit the place of interest in the area such as the Amalfi coast, Pompeii, Capri, Mount Faito.

The property has amazing views! We didn’t expect a bungalow but that’s what this place is. It was very nice, centrally located to Pompeii, Sorrento, Amalfi coast, etc. the staff is super helpful, and they will help you navigate the area. They can even rent you a scooter. Cool spot! I’ll be back.

Let down
Parking was ridiculous and I am surprised we didn’t damage our car. The sheets were dirty on one of the beds and the towels were thread bare. The location was about 5km from Soronto which doesn’t sound bad however every time we needed to bring our car back onto the hotel property was dangerous. Wifi only worked in the main building. The only positive things I can say was that we received a warm welcome and the pool was nice.

Stunning location, cosy bungalow and super friendly staff.
My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Villaggio Turistico Baia Serena. The couple that owns the place were super friendly and welcoming. The swimming pool was beautifully located with a stunning view. One of the key features for us was the wonderful restaurant terrace that has an incredible panoramic view of the Sorrento bay. The bungalow we stayed in was very cosy. The atmosphere was very calm and serene. I would highly recommend this place and would love to come back.

Great view, friendly staff, not a great stay.
Let me first say that the owners were very friendly and the view was beautiful!! However, it was extremely hard to park or get out of hotel. The beds were horribly uncomfortable and we had no towels when we got there. Not a great location if you have a hard time walking (very steep hills) or heavy luggage. Pool was nice and the food was good. Good price, but not a great location if you don't have a car.

Arrived at hotel to be greeted with no u cancelled your holiday! Manager very accommodating as it was expedias mistake! We booked 1 family room but ended up with two small rooms, this meant we had to separate for our family holiday! There are good bus routes if you are a fit walker as the hills are very steep. The train service was also very useful and cheap. The shop had a good supply of basic foods, beers and wines and not too expensive.

Italy 2016 Holiday
My husband, 2 teenage children and myself stayed 3 nights or our two week Italian holiday in The Villagio Turistico Baia Serena approx 15 mins drive to Sorrento. We had a 2 bedroom holiday home with double room and twin room. It was very clean and fantastic views. The staff were brilliant and the food delicious.

Bungalows! Awesome view!
The location is off the beaten path, so a little hard to get to from the train station (requires a taxi or bus ride). But once you are there, the view from the terrace, where dinner is served is amazing! It seems to be a family owned/managed property, which is nice. The host family cooks dinner for themselves, and for you if you want it, and it was probably the best meal we had in Italy. I definitely recommend this place and I would go back again someday.

5 Star Dump
The place was nothing like it was advertised. You were first met at a guard house for check in, he took you to your little bungalow, you had to park and walk the rest of the way because the roads are so narrow that they cannot take cars. The bungalow itself was inhabitable, ants everywhere and I don't mean just a couple, every room was infested, colonies it was disgusting, the place itself was incredibly small, no kitchen table etc. There was no place to sit down except for outside which had trees blocking any view what-so-ever. We were there for about half an hour and decided we needed to find somewhere else to stay, when we checked out the owner said they had spray for the ants (why wasn't this done before we arrived, so we wouldn't have to breathe in toxic spray). The pool had a layer of bugs on it, making it non-usable. This place was awful for such a beautiful area in Italy.

The overall impression was just ok for a few days.
The chalets and restaurant areas were very rundown and in need of refurbishment. The pool was excellent and because we visited at the end of season was very quiet which may not be the case in high season. Access with a car is a bit tricky so dont stat here with na large vehicule. The views are superb and the owners are very friendly and very helpful.

Great service and location!
The service and location of this hotel make up for the fact that the rooms, though clean, are a bit run down and old. We enjoyed the fact that the hotel is close to Sorrento (with an amazing view of the city and coast!) but far enough away for some quiet when we needed it. Family-run, the owners did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable and worthwhile - sharing their knowledge of the area and more. Note: it would probably be difficult to reach this hotel without a car, however even for experienced drivers the entrance to the property is extremely steep and hard to maneuver!

Le village bénéficie d'une très belle situation. Mais l'accès aux bungalows en voiture est très difficile (chemin étroit et très pentu), le bungalow qui nous a été attribué était aménagé très succinctement, très peu de vaisselle,très peu de linge (2 petites serviettes de toilette, pas tapis de douche) et le logement pas propre à notre arrivée.

Zero mantenimiento, las fotos son una estafa
Es vergonzoso que un establecimiento turístico esté en éstas condiciones. No hay nada de mantenimiento, el agua del wc perdía, el entorno sucio y abandonado. Te cobran una tasa para usar el aire condicionado en pleno verano! Daba miedo entrar por la noche, no hay luz y ni siquiera recepción después de las 22h. La puerta permanece abierta a cualquier persona así que además es inseguro. No nos quedamos ni la primera noche a pesar de estar todo pagado, 400euros a la basura...

Fan et climatisation
Le seul bémol, il n y'a pas de fan au plafond, nous avons voulu avoir la commande de l'air climatisé, c'était 8euros supplémentaire par jour, dans hôtel.com il mentionne que tout est inclus.. faudrait revoir ça .. on a ouvert les fenêtres et c'était quand même tolérable. Nous avons du demander des serviettes pour la douche, elles n'étaient pas dans la chambre... Le restaurant du site était vraiment bon, le service aussi.. la vue est à couper le souffle, nous avons eu de bon moment dans ce petit village camping....
