Why people love it

  • The family. Guests say staff remember them each time they walk in. Bianca and Anna are named for help with taxis and plans.
  • Views. Many rooms have balconies or terraces facing the town and sea, and guests describe the night view as a highlight.
  • Location. It's central and reachable by taxi on the road, high enough for views without long climbs.
  • Small extras. You can borrow beach towels, and staff prepare breakfast boxes for early departures.

Why they come back

"This is the fifth time we've stayed with the wonderful Cinque family."

The worst thing guests say

Room setups don't always match the booking. In July 2026 a family who paid for a quadruple room found a different bed setup than shown. In 2024, one guest was given a smaller room than the one booked with a jacuzzi, and another had a dispute over a deposit. Several guests mention very early checkout.

Insider tips

  • Confirm your exact room and bed setup before you arrive.
  • Check-out is early.
  • The hotel restaurant is expensive; there are cheaper places nearby.
Who it's for: couples and families who want a central base with a view.
Skip it if you need hotel-level consistency on room types.
