Excellent location and grounds. Beautiful family run hotel. Dario and Paola could not do enough for you. All the staff from the cleaners to the waiters to the gardener have a genuine smile on their face. If I could give 20/10 I would. We enjoyed our time so much we booked extra nights. We are already planning a return visit. The Hotel is spotlessly clean. Many Thanks from Conor and Nicola.

It is difficult to describe all the expierences about visiting a single place in one opinion. Nevertheless, if you are lazy and looking for a simple answer - then yes, I recommend this place. This hotel is run by a wonderful family. They are super nice and helpful to every guest. It's quite cute to watch how next generations run the same place :) The location is great, getting to the port city of Ischia takes a bit of time but is within reach of any taxi or a long walk. In our opinion, Casamiccola is as nice as the other towns on the island, so there is no real need to walk further. The restaurant in the hotel is not the cheapest, but taking into account the size of the portions and the quality of the food, it is not a problem at all. Arguments that the service is unpleasant do not hit us at all. Everyone was always smiling and ready to help. Problems with sometimes poor knowledge of English were not a barrier. Everyone else can have a bad day, especially when it's 35-40 degrees. We highly recommend this place - The owners, Roberta, Lucia or Valerio, have always helped us when needed :) With great pleasure we will come back here both with friends and our children - see you soon! P.S. The only thing we missed a bit was music - play it all day long, regardless of the genre, it will definitely make your stay more pleasant.

We had an amazing stay. The rooms are spacious and the bed and pillows are comfortable. Good aircon in the rooms and amazing black out shutters on the windows The pools are beautiful and lots of space for chairs which was great. Just remember to take a swimming cap as you cannot swim in the pool without one but this wasn’t a big deal as the use of the pool outweighs having to wear a cap in the water. The buffet breakfast was one of the best we’ve had and the service from the staff was always attentive and available. The staff across the whole hotel were always lovely and happy to help. I would like to make a special mention to one of the staff members Guiseppe from concierge. He gave us exceptional service and we are so thankful for how much he helped us trying to find a barber for my partner. He used his own time and followed up with us to help us with the booking he always had a friendly and welcoming smile. Thank you for making our stay one to remember.

We absolutely loved everything about this hotel! My wife and I felt very relaxed and happy with our stay. Very welcoming reception staff. The half board was worth every penny with amazing & delicious dinner every night. The pools were beautiful and well maintained with sea water (jets, water bike) & the beach although small very enjoyable. The indoor SPA with 3 thermal pools and steam sauna was excellent. The room are very tastefully furnished, the bed was comfortable, the lighting very good. In the bathroom we found, in addition to the usual bath towels, beach towels, flip-flops and bathrobes. The hotel is full of aesthetics and romantic. The hotel is about a 15 min. drive to Forio, 10 mi. to Negombo Thermal Park and 20 min. to Giardini Poseidon Thermal Park.

The breakfast was really good, with a variety of fruits, savory items, and plenty of sweets. The views were outstanding! The location was good, close to the center of Forio (although not walkable), and also near a bus stop, which makes it easy to explore the island by bus. It's great that the hotel provides a shuttle to the closest beach, Citara. The staff were really friendly, including those responsible for our transportation. We also had a small problem with the air conditioning that was solved very quickly by the maintenance staff!

the hotel is placed in an excellent position, easily reached with a short walk. It is also a few metres away from the Ischia Port Terminal and from there you can catch a bus (actually a mini-bus as the streets of Ischia are quite narrow) to just about anywhere on the island. The staff were very friendly and courteous offering precise explanations and details. Highly recommended if you simply want to relax! An added treat (which we did not know about when we booked) was the "percorso benessere" included in the price!

A beautiful island with a range of personal experiences that made our vist unique. Everyone we met was so friendly and we enjoyed all of our time on the island. We did find the roads very narrow and different to drive with a hire car. Th thermal pools at Poseidon were outstanding. We visited in mid-October and found that the island was in the process of shutting down for the off season. Despite this, we are now missing the fabulous family run restaurants and quiet hotel. Would love to go back and visit again.

No parking. Many steps to get to the piazza and port and not pedestrian safe. Not geared to tourists. Shops for local consumption mostly. Ok for a day or two but traffic in and out is terrible and not a good base for exploring the area. I found the restaurants good but expensive.

Almost only Italians are in Bacoli, very few international tourists, which makes it a special experience. You can just relax and enjoy the sea at several beaches, many of which are free, like Spiaggia del Poggio and Lido Schiacchetiello. There's quite a large supermarket on Via Roma with lots of nice local cheese, meat and fruits & veggies. Everything within Bacoli is walking distance. We used public transport to get there and around, EAV buses run mostly on schedule to reach for instance, Pozzuoli. Pozzuoli may be a better choice to stay if you want to discover the Roman ruins and the islands. There are some things to see and do in Bacoli as well, like visiting the Castle with amazing Roman sculptures and the Piscina Mirabilis is also interesting to see.

There isn't that much to see and so two or three days is all you need. The roads are vertiginous . Make sure you have heard of the film IL POSTINO. Loads of good restaurants but you have to like fish and seafood. Meat is virtually non existent.

I used to live here for 2 years. I like how it is more peaceful than Naples. The restaurants have very good food, especially the pizza a la lenio. I love the markets you have called mercantinos. I love the beaches as well. I don’t like the massive amount of traffic around 10am on Sundays. That’s only in the summer though. All in all I love lago patria.

We loved the owners of the hotel that we stayed at but as for the town it was a dump with all due respect! It was way out of Naples and access to the beach is impossible without a car, not much affordable transport options in Italy. I would not return to Varcaturo and probably not Italy for that matter. This experience has put us off! The owners of our hotel are the only reason we would consider returning to Italy due to there warm hospitality but sadly wouldn’t stay there again solely due to the location.

Beautiful coastal area just a few kms. from Pozzuoli and easy to get to from Naples if you have a car. There is a train line but only seemed to be a few trains a day, and not sure about bus transport. A car for this area is essential to get the most out of it. We went out and about every day exploring the area, which has some wonderful archaeological sites, some dating back to ancient Greek settlements, that are little-known outside of Italy. Lots of pretty beachside cafes.
