Scoglietto 50

The grounds are lovely and well kept, and the staff were attentive and quick to sort out problems. When we arrived, we learned previous guests had broken the induction cooker, but it was repaired promptly. The apartment itself was a letdown. I found hair all over, the bathroom floor was dirty, and the old tub-shower felt rickety. The taps were worn and clogged with limescale. I had to wash the plates and cutlery again, and the bathroom linens had yellowish stains. The kitchen cabinets don't fit properly, make noise, and seem likely to break eventually. Everything in the apartment feels old and poorly maintained, so it really needs a major overhaul. What a shame.

We first came in July for a four-day break from work, almost by chance, and liked it enough to return twice in August. That's three stays in just a few months. What keeps coming back to mind is the calm atmosphere, with greenery all around and a picturesque view. It was exactly the slow, quiet escape we wanted, and the sort of place where the usual daily rush fades away. The sea is about a five-minute walk away, through the park and then along a short stretch of main road. The crossing is clearly visible and safe, and we never found it a problem. The residence is a great fit if you're after peace and easy access to the sea. We tried several apartment types for couples, from Economy to Superior. Each was clean, well maintained, and had what we needed for a relaxing holiday. The higher categories naturally have more space and extra amenities, but we found them all functional and well equipped. Here's hoping we can come back soon.

We had a wonderful stay. The apartment was modern, nicely equipped, and had a beautiful terrace, and parking on site was very convenient. The residence is surrounded by greenery, just steps from the sea, and the service was excellent. Highly recommended!
