Top Hotels Near Luchino Visconti Museum - Villa La Colombaia in Forio from AU$83

"I’ll try to be as fair as possible. This place is really beautiful. It’s a gorgeous building and a very pretty setting right on the water. I know everyone has their own expectations and mine were not met on many levels. First of all the place didn’t seem like a real hotel. I THINK it’s more like an all inclusive resort (that doesn’t include very much). My stay was for a superior room with terrace and ocean view. The view was obstructed and the terrace was so small it was not usable. There was a table and two lounge chairs that you almost had to walk on in order to sit on them. The room next to us had a terrace at least twice the size as ours. They advertise they have a gym, they do not. They a treadmill, a 60 yr old stationary bike and 15lbs of metal plates. Yes a grand total of 15lbs. If you want to eat lunch you can do so between the hours of 12-1pm and choose from about 10 item on the menu. Breakfast was included with my room. The breakfast I assume is very European, lots of pastries some cheese and meats and warm scrambled eggs. Dinner??? I THINK the deal was you had to buy a buffet for $45 per person which would but nothing was clearly communicated to me. There were about 100 elderly people at the resort from Milan on some sort of tour/vacation and ALL of them, ALL of them were grumpy and NEVER smiled. The hotel is located in a very rural residential area that is charming in its own right but there’s nothing around it. You’d need to take a quick cab ride into Forio."

" Ery nice hotel with a range of thermal pools"

"Antonio was very welcoming and very helpful. The premise was spacious and very clean. It is nicely positioned in front of the ocean with a great view and the accompanying sound of the waves. "

"Everything and everyone was excellent "

"Our stay was fabulous at Mezzatorre. The service staff is spot on. If you’re questioning if it’s worth it - it is. The breakfast was included however we didn’t realize it so we didn’t take advantage of it until the last day and we didn’t really even eat much. Also the thermal spas are included as well. And the bed and toiletries are great as well. We stayed 3 nights and felt like 1 more would have been better. "

"Amazing spot by the beach and many great restaurants. Staff was very friendly and room was clean. Highly recommend "

"Stunning villa, beautifully designed"

"We just left Ischia after our first visit. As a family of four with two adults and two children, 3 and 7, this was a fantastic place to stay. The photos accurately represent the property. The views are as stunning as you see in the pictures, but of course better in person! They include all of the basic amenities needed and even did some light shopping for us before we arrived so we had some extra necessities for the kids. Check in was easy. Note that you have to pay 2/day in tax in cash. The place drips of ischia in terms of decor and style. Very clean and lots of light. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms beautiful. Only complaint with the bathrooms is the lack of a door on the downstairs bathroom - very limited privacy! It was very safe and parking was easy behind an automatic gate. Note that you share parking with the other villa on the property so it’s a little tight but doable. Speaking of which - there is another villa just below this one. We regretted not booking that one because it appeared to have a plunge pool which would have been great with the hot weather! Also you could hear voices from the other villa sometimes. The kitchen was excellent and well equipped and there is a small washing machine, and a drying rack outside. It is located perfectly - a short drive to Forio, and the rest of the island is also easily accessible. The Mariana gardens are directly across the street! In all we had an amazing time at this fantastic villa!"
