“Bad value for money”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed July 30, 2012

I spent two nights at the Hermitage after a very pleasant stay at Park Hotel Napoleone to end our holiday with a bang, since Hermitage is supposed to be the best hotel in the island. I was very disappointed: location is very nice indeed but service level, food quality and room's maintenance level don't justify a price tag of almost 600 Eur per day. Very bad price quality ratio.

“Gorgeous, relaxing, just what the doctor ordered”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 16, 2012

I just arrived and already I am in love with this beautiful resort!!! as a Four Seasons devotee i find this hotel every bit as wonderful!!! from their wonderful staff (one might even say delicious... but i suppose that goes for most if not all italian men), to their beautiful rooms to amazing views and magical sunsets. The food is lovely as well and everyone is so friendly! I would definately reccomend this to any couples looking for a romantic getaway and families looking to relax by the pool or beach with their little ones! truly lovely!!!

Room Tip: ask for a cottage with a sea view!!!!

“Wonderful place for a relaxing holiday.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 8, 2012

This hotel has everything you could wish for if your wish is for a relaxing holiday by the sea. The location is incredible, nestled in the corner of a beautiful sandy bay backed by a picturesque tree covered hillside. You have the choice of strolling from your room to the sea for a cooling swim in the clear, sheltered water, or the huge, deep, sea water swimming pool. Should you be feeling thirsty there is also a stunning infinity pool where you can swim right up to a friendly, well stocked bar. Our 10 year old daughter rotated around all three, stopping off for a dip in the jacuzzi now and again in between. There is no shortage of activities available if lying on the beach is not your thing. You can take a walk around the coastline, hire boats, jet ski, windsurf, kayak or learn how to dive The staff are friendly and courteous and the hotel has a warm, welcoming atmosphere where you feel as if your enjoyment and comfort are paramount. There is a choice of restaurants and the food is consitently good quality and well presented.
Our daughter also made good use of the mini club for children which is well run by enthusiastic young staff and well attended by the children who really enjoyed it. We were there for the last week in June and there was plenty of space for everyone. It's not cheap but it's a really special place.

Room Tip: We had a family room in a cottage on the hillside. It was simply furnished with a large double bed...

“Pardise on Earth”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 21, 2012

This is just the best hotel of its type off the Tuscany coast. The service is superb and the private beach fantastic. Slightly overpriced but it's worth every penny. The best of all is that you can have your privacy and spend lazy days under the trees some few seconds walk away from the Mediterranean waves.

Room Tip: Choose the rooms far away from the main building with sea view!

“Confirm previous impression”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 31, 2012

We have been visiting this hotel for several years in a row. After a stop of a few years, we were back this spring, and our very good impression was fully confirmed. The place is special, food is delicious, service couldn't be better. I saw that in some reviews people complain about the rooms. Of course it depends on your expectations. Each time we had a different room, sometimes better for some aspects sometimes for others, but never anything we could complain about. I love the rooms being among the trees, I love the peace, the view on the gulf, the flowers, the fireflies at night. Rooms are extremely clean, bathrooms are spacious, beds are comfortable. Each room has some private "space" outside, either a terrace or a little patio. We have always been off-season and the quality/price ratio was very good. I understand that in high season it can be very expensive.
