The location of the hotel is excellent and we enjoyed the pools with sea water. The hotel offered a really delicious breakfast in a courtyard overlooking the pool. We were picked and dropped off at the port. We did not have dinner at the hotel so we cannot comment on its quality. Overall a very lovely stay.

This is the perfect small family run hotel in a charming location! With the sea on three sides, you could hear the waves lapping as you lay in bed and the breakfast/dining area was a covered deck over the sea. Breakfast itself was very Neapolitan: lots of cake but also fruit, cereals etc. As for the staff, they were also charming, the friendlest and most helpful I've ever encountered.

The room was spacious and very nice, with a large terrace outside where we could eat our breakfast with a great view over the island. We enjoyed the free buffet breakfast. The staff at the reception was very nice and helpful.

Small island with a lot of secret history.
Small island with a lot of secret history. We visited the Roman cisterns and the botanical Garden as well as taking a boat trip out to neighboring island--uninhabited-- of Zannone. Attractive little shops in Porto the main town and very good restaurants, as this place caters to Italians--very few foreign visitors. Very good bus service races up and down the island, depositing people above the best beaches, which are a long way down!
NB Mainly fish on offer.

Beautiful island with breathtaking views.
Beautiful island with breathtaking views. The sea is multicolor, the water was so clear and beautiful.
I recommend taking a hotel near the port, as most of the life was there, however it wasn't too crowded and it was so pleasant to walk around.
I recommend a cruise around the island (we took one with Cooperativa Barcaioli Ponzesi), we had really great time and there was lunch on board.
Just a couple of things to keep in mind:
1- The island is quite uphill from the port, therefore when booking a hotel, even though it says that it's only 10-15 minutes walk from the port, there good chances that it is uphill, so you must be quite fit. Of course the view from uphill is so beautiful, and totally worth it, but not the most comfortable option. As there are a lot of stairs to go up, taxis may not get you exactly where you need to go. If you have mobility problems or you are unfit, please speak with the hotel to ensure that it is the right one for you, otherwise you may choose a hotel in front of the port.
2- The island is quite pricey, definitely more expensive than average in Italy. A coke was 4€, and a small bottle of beer 7€. Average meal with one main course and a glass of wine was about 35€.

Beautiful views and since it was the end of the season (November) there was enough space to park your park, despite the small and steep roads. Do not visit this island with your own car during the summer. There is a good bus on the island.

Ponza is a beautiful island which in many ways feels quite untouched. The best way to experience Ponza is by boat and I highly recommend that you spend at least one day sailing around the island with a local.
Fantastic location. Connected to the main town by a 15-20 min bus ride, it is right in front of the steps to access Cala Feola, one of the rare sandy beaches in Ponza, and it is contiguous to Le Piscine, which can be reached swimming from Cla Feola, or through dedicated steps at walking distance.
About 10 minutes walking distance from the small center La Forna, with groceries and several restaurants and cafeterias.
Highly recommended.
The location with splendid views across the harbour and surrounding sea and the friendly staff are the two greatest assets of the hotel. Our room (one of the family suites) was large and very clean and had a great view of the harbour. The historic building itself gives the place a unique and exclusive touch. The al fresco breakfast on the terrace was one of the highlights of the day. The little pool was alsoan unexpected pleasure.
the family room was a nice days for us 4. the pool was small but large enough for multiple guests and to cool off durning the heat of the day. the view was spectacular from the pool area and worth the climb up the hill to the hotel. open area lobby brought in some great shade and breezes. staff was very friendly and welcoming, we found the breakfast to be plenty of choices and well stocked. AC was great too.
This is the best place to stay on Ponza - a unique spot that is right on the beach, and with a private pool. It’s a delight simply to stay on the property all day, but is also a great location to travel the island. We stayed here on our honeymoon, and loved every minute of our time here, and would love to come back. One major highlight was Elena, our incredible host, who cared for us like we were family.
Carlo was a great host, came to pick us up from the port and drove us to the apartment. He gave us info about the island, resturants and scooter rental.
The apartment is in walking distance to the city center of Ponza and is located in a quiet neighborhood.
We liked that the bedroom was separated from the main living room+kitchen. The apartment has a balcony and a terrace with sitting area.
What an amazing experience.
First I like to thank the team for been so kind and helpful.
The hotel is really well located with an amazing views of the port of Ponza.
The rooms are clean spacious with good facilities.
Close to the best bars and shops from the port of ponza. I definitely recommend this hotel and I’m personally definitely staying there next time in Ponza.
Thanks
My fiance and I had a lovely time at this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpul. The views from the pool and cocktail area were absolutely out of this world can't even describe it. Our room was ok not amazing but it was clean and well kept and served it's purpose but the hotels pool, location and views make this a must stay when visiting Ponza in my opinion.
Rita and Antonio, the staff of the hotel, are welcoming, available, prompt to respond to any request, and full of information of where to eat on Ponza, best beaches, transportation, etc. The hotel itself is lovely, with bathrooms and hotel rooms covered with antique ceramic tiles. The breakfast is a buffet, everything fresh and abundant. Highly recommend!n/
We absolutely loved it!!!
The apartment was outstanding!
It was so beautifully decorated, very very clean and the staff was so friendly and accommodating! This was hand down the best place we ever stayed in Ponza!!
The view was stunning and the area was very quiet and peaceful!
Cannot wait to go back again!!!
Grazie Lucia!!
The hotel is located just a few minutes walk from the Piscine Naturali which is wonderful. The view from the terrace is beautiful and it´s wonderful to have breakfast with a view before walking to the beach where you can rent boats and sail around the island. We loved staying at the Hotel and will hopefully return soon :)
The view of the town and the beach is beautiful. The beach that it looks over is NOT accessible though. It has been closed for 10 years so if you want close to a beach that you can go to, this is not the hotel.
Closest beach is by ferry. There is shuttle service
To the ferry and the guy that does it is lovely.
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel especially welcomed. The room was immaculate, the staff were incredibly accommodating, and the location was perfect. The view from our room was spectacular. This will be where we stay every time we visit Ponza. This place is an absolute Gem!!!!
It is the perfect place. The view is spectacular. But it's clean. It offers the comfort, Cleanliness, and security of a hotel, but with the little kitchen, the freedom of an airbnb which are normally not that clean and filled with Ikea crap. We were very happy with our stay.
Beautifully decorated room in a beautiful location. Fantastic views of ponza and delicious breakfast catered to guests desires. Luggage transfer arranged so check in and out was hassle free. Carlo even surprised us with a couple of cakes as a honeymoon treat. Thank you!
Nice and quiet location within walking distance from Chiaia di Luna.
Transfer to/from hotel on arrival and departure days included. Rosaria the owner is amazing and one could spend hours listening to her stories about Ponza and the Ponzesi.
