Sandro the owner was very kind and helpful. The room was warm and cosy. The kitchen and facilities were ample and always clean. The location on the water was lovely and a short uphill walk to town.

The hotel is beautifully decorated, offering an authentic palafittos experience. The views of the bay from both the main bedroom and the breakfast room are stunning. The main bedroom, with its breathtaking bay view, is definitely worth the price.
