Tersane IV

We liked the Propaganda 4 hotels a lot when we saw them on the show, though I didn’t actually get to stay there on vacation. The quoted prices, however, don’t match the current ones. They’re exactly double, perhaps that was part of the program’s strategy. Still, I don’t think that’s right. I get it, I’m no Bruno Barbieri and I don’t host a show, but the details should reflect the truth.

The place has charm and really feels like a change of scenery. The staff were friendly, and breakfast was generous, though very rich and sweet. At night, it gets quite noisy, with boats nearby, various pumps and night owls on the upper deck, so bring earplugs. The main issue for us was the hot water: there was none in the morning. We were told it would be back in five minutes, but even after waiting an hour, we still had no hot water and had to take cold showers.

We had a holiday we’ll remember for a long time. The gulet itself was spacious, comfortable and beautiful, and Angelo, Guglielmo, Gerardo, and Eleonora were serious, capable and always ready to help. Thank you all!

On the Tersane IV, we had such a good week that we lost track of what day it was, which is one of the best things about a holiday. Angelo, Guglielmo, Eleonora, and Gerardo from the staff were superb. Unforgettable.
