Alkimia boutique hotel

Simona was a wonderful host, and her daughter made a delicious breakfast. We had a relaxing, wonderful night’s stay and will definitely come back. The area is really lovely and not as busy or crowded. Such a warm, welcoming place.

The breakfast buffet was excellent, especially the tasty local sweets. The location is great if you want to avoid the busy beach area while still being a short drive from the beaches and old town. Staff were courteous and very friendly, and took care of our special requests to make the stay great. It’s a stylish boutique hotel that’s managed perfectly. Strongly recommended.

The building and location are impressive, and the staff are exceptionally cordial, going out of their way to help with whatever they can. The superior double room with balcony sits about 2 meters above the car park. The view is beautiful, but because the room faces the parking area, there’s no privacy in the room or on the balcony. Wi-Fi was too slow for a steady connection and often didn’t work at all, so I couldn’t work from the hotel. That may not matter if you’re traveling for leisure or don’t need internet. There’s no restaurant, and getting anywhere requires your own car. The hotel’s location has no pedestrian path or safe route to the main road or anywhere else. There are many good things about this place, but also plenty that could be improved. For now, I wouldn’t recommend it for a business trip, though it might be pleasant for a leisure-focused stay.

Breakfast was made with exquisite products and suited those of us looking for balance and well-being at the table. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodated every need. The five adults and four-year-old girl in our group had a week of complete comfort and quiet across three rooms. The property is carefully designed and tastefully furnished, with elegance and attention to detail. It sits peacefully among olive groves on a hill just above Vasto Marina, only a three-minute drive from the seafront beaches.
