Everything was great - location, accommodations, views - it was extra for a beach bed…felt a little “nickel and dimed” for a basic beach amenity - just include it in the price!

Excellent hotel right on the beach. Absolutely loved this hotel. It was absolutely stunning! Our room was huge and the balcony came right out onto the beach front. The hood at breakfast was great. Lots of variety. The pool was a standout. Stunning views of the gorgeous surrounding buildings and the pool barman/ lifesaver was an absolute legend. So lovely and hospitable. He also tops your drink right to the top which made us very happy. I can highly recommend this hotel to anyone coming to Santa Margherita

The hotel grounds are absolutely stunning and well maintained. The staff are lovely and helpful. The hotel is quite dated and would benefit from a refurbishment. No iron or ironing board in the rooms. Also no kettle, wine glasses or tea/coffee facilities. Great location
