Unfriendly staff. The men who worked the front desk were indifferent and not very welcomfurniture and warped mattress of the sofa was very uncomfortable. It appears that that the hotel is undergoing some renovation because some areas were roped off and oddly connected. The area and close proximity to the water and variety of eateries were the best thing about this hotel. In summary, it’s a glamorized Motel 6 with not so friendly staff.

Het zwembad is niet groot maar wel heerlijk, waren altijd voldoende ligbedjes. Het personeel was erg vriendelijk en zeer behulpzaam.

A very nice hotel

Nice room with some cool design features in roof / lighting. A large and inviting pool, with a water feature inspired by Isola dei Ciclopi, in-pool massage jets, a shallow section for the toddlers and a good depth in the rest. A relaxing pool area with a bar where the ever smiling Giovanni (Johnny) and his other, friendly colleagues serve drinks, snacks and meals. Usually possible to get a sun chair so no one runs around with towels at 7 in the morning. The ever pristine Signor il Direttore keeps a watchful look at the premises, always with a smile and a chat for both guests and staffs (described by our 7yo as the friendliest boss he has ever met (although, admittedly, he hasn't met THAT many)). The staff is helpful and service minded. When a friend fell ill, the night staff decided it would take unnecessarily long to get a taxi and simply drove them to the hospital. Breakfast is varied and should cater to most people. A bit confusing upon arrival in the dark, as Google maps claims the adresse is on the other side of the street. The resort is part of Hotel Malavoglia, and that name was easy to see. Good size parking spaces in the basement, but a bit narrow getting in and out, as usual in Italy. Highly recommended.
