"We loved everything about this property. The grounds are beautiful from the lavender lined side walls to the acres of olive trees. The staff could not be more accommodating from when we pulled into the parking lot and Joseppe came running out to help with bags to every other server going out of their way to make our stay special. We love a smaller hotel and appreciate the attention to every detail. The room was perfect, bed was comfortable and shower was also great. At night we sat on our patio under the olive trees and drank wine, so special. The restaurant was also very good. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast and our waitor(canโ€™t remember his name, great smile though) was great. We loved our stay!!!"

10/10 Excellent
"This lovely B&B was perfectly situated near the old town but off a quiet side street. The apartment itself was more than we could have hoped for. We asked for the sofa bed to be made up and the layout of the apartment suited our needs. There was a hairdryer, toiletries and even a spare toothbrush set which came into use when the battery on my electric toothbrush ran out. There is a small kitchen which had everything that we needed and a handy fridge to store items we had picked up during the day. The best part though has to be the views. The balcony is small but perfectly formed with enough room for my friend and I to both sit and watch the amazing views and beach below. My friend and I felt very safe walking around the area at night time. Anna and Osvaldo were the perfect hosts, nothing was too much trouble and we felt very well looked after. Thank you for putting yourselves out for us on our last day. What we experienced was an authentic welcome with amazing hospitality and if ever we stay in the area again, this would be our first choice accommodation. We must also mention the 2 other ladies who worked there too. Such lovely people. Thank you so much!!"
