Facilities

This place delivers big time on the food front. There’s a Continental buffet spread for breakfast, while a choice of daily set menus and an Italian-style salad bar are on offer at dinnertime. If that doesn’t take your fancy, you can upgrade for a little extra to an evening à la carte menu, too. When it comes to after dinner entertainment, there’s a small bar and live music in the lounge three times a week. The swimming pool is the hotel’s focal point. It’s huge, and sidles up to a large sun terrace with lots of parasols and loungers. The best part is that you can see the sea from here. There’s a bar next to the pool, which offers waiter service if you don’t feel like moving from your sunbed. Little ones have their own paddling pool, too. The food at this place is well worth a mention – a daily set menu of Neapolitan specialities and Italian classics is served in the restaurant every night. The restaurant itself has a large bay window, which looks out over the mountain scenery to the sea. As for snacks, the pool bar serves a menu of salads, burgers, pizza, pasta, fish and sandwiches on an al fresco terrace. Live music takes place a few nights a week in the laid-back lounge and there’s a pianist on Sundays at the weekly gala dinner. Ping pong and football tables are set in the lemon grove garden. A small gym is available at the hotel. Plus, 2km away there is Ulysse Spa, run by an external provider, which features a whirlpool bath, sauna, Turkish bath and ice cave, plus a long menu of treatments. - Free Wi-Fi - Gardens - Parking - Shuttle bus - Safety deposit boxes - Reception area
