Почему людям нравится
- Balconies that practically hang over the Tyrrhenian Sea
- Saltwater pool that feels like a private ocean extension
- The restaurant's 'Il Cavalluccio Marino' seafood is actually worth staying in for
Краткий обзор: A charmingly aging seaside dame that trades modern polish for unbeatable views and the sound of crashing waves.
Подтверждено @Jadesss: I stayed here for a weekend recharge and honestly, the location saved me. It’s not ultra-modern, but waking up to that ocean view and having breakfast by the waves was exactly the reset I needed. Super peaceful vibe.

Reality check
The 'aging' factor is real — peeling paint and worn carpets are common complaints from those expecting a modern 4-star.
- You want to fall asleep to the actual sound of waves
- You appreciate 'old school' Italian hospitality (brass keys, not keycards)
- You have a car (free parking is a rare goldmine here)
Чистота и уход
7
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable, but they are fighting a losing battle against sea salt and age.
- Bathroom hygiene: Clean but worn. Grout is scrubbed but stained from age; fixtures have limescale buildup.
- Maintenance: Peeling paint on balconies is common due to sea air. AC units can be rattly.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and white, though towels can feel a bit thin/scratchy from line drying.
- Odors & scents: Dominant smell is fresh sea air, occasionally masking a faint mustiness in carpeted hallways.

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is there a shuttle to the Civitavecchia cruise port?
Not a free one. The hotel can arrange a private transfer (expensive, ~€80+), but a standard taxi costs around €30-40 and takes 15 minutes.
Is the pool heated?
No, it's an unheated saltwater pool. Refreshing in July, bracing in May.
Does the hotel have an elevator?
Yes, there is a lift that reaches the upper floors.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, but check your rate. It's a continental buffet served on the terrace with sea views — worth the €12 if not included.
Can I swim in the sea here?
Yes, via a ladder from the concrete platform. The water is clear but deep immediately.
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, but it can be centrally controlled and mild compared to US standards.
Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
Ask for a 'brass key' souvenir photo; they still use heavy physical keys instead of plastic cards.
- ✨
The hotel has a 'Residence' wing with apartments that are often cheaper but lack the best hotel views.
- ✨
Walk 10 minutes north to 'Porticciolo' for a more local, less touristy beach vibe.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The 'private beach' is basically a concrete pier with sunbeds, not a sandy shore.
💡You might find salt residue on the windows — it's that close to the spray.
💡The shower stalls are often the 'bifold door' type that are notoriously tight.
💡It's a favorite spot for local Sunday lunches, so the restaurant gets packed with non-guests.
💡The WiFi signal struggles to punch through the thick concrete walls in corner rooms.
