    Is there was a bar by the pool

    The breakfast was perfect. Amazing scrambled eggs and bacon and then the classic Italian breakfast of cold meats and cheeses etc. The views from the terrace are stunning.

    Literally the only negative thing we could think of is to suggest a stronger extractor fan in the bathroom which hit a bit steamed up

    Amazing building in an extraordinary & beautiful location above the sea with fantastic restaurants in walking distance. All the staff were friendly, welcoming & first class!

    The menu was all fish based. No meat dishes at all.. The breakfast was not as good as I have had in similar priced places. For example, you had to ask for milk, non on display for breakfast. Nevertheless it was a nice breakfast, just limited choice.

    Very interesting location Excellent quality and very good food

    The twin bed had separate mattresses; it is more comfortable to have a single king size mattress.

    The venue is simply amazing, and has a wonderful view of the majestic sea.

    Lunch food wasn’t the best. So we opted to have dinner elsewhere. The beach is not private, you do see the public coming and going often.

    Incredible breakfast, very friendly staff, walking distance to many restaurants. Very easy access to the ocean, we loved having the sun chairs to read listening to the waves. The pool is also incredible.

    Absolutely everything was amazing, from the beautifully appointed rooms, wonderful sea views with access directly down to the shore and very attentive staff. Sita in the bar was exceptional and made the most delicious mojitos we had in two weeks (and we tried a lot!!) She made our first afternoon so much fun.

    We had a slight issue with the air conditioning but it was quickly resolved. There really isn’t anything to dislike here.

    The property is beautiful and still retains many of its original features as a sea defence fortification. The views across to the Ancona coastline are wonderful and not to be missed as the sun begins to set. Also, don’t miss the opportunity to eat in the beautifully dining hall while enjoying someone caress the grand piano.

    This property has an interesting history and a fabulous location. The hotel, restaurant and grounds are well-maintained. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed and the beds are comfortable. The shower was large and there was plenty of hot water and water pressure. The patio is a lovely place to sip coffee in the morning or an aperitivo in the afternoon. The grounds are peaceful. There’s a lovely beach nearby.

    An absolutely fabulous building steeped in history just far enough from the main track to be secluded (I visited off season); with easy parking, a fantastic rocky beach and great running / walking on the door step. Amazing staff with a great restaurant too.

    We loved the location, facilities and ambience. Just sorry we could only stay one day as it was a short stop over on our travel to the north of Italy. The access to the electric car charger was another reason we booked the place as it made it very convenient not to have to hunt around for a charging place outside the hotel. An amazing room, excellent breakfast and the breathtaking location made this stay memorable . We will tell our friends about this place for sure
