Top Santa Margherita Hotel Reviews

Recent Reviews in Santa Margherita

Hotel Villa Enrica - Aeolian Charme

10/10 Excellent

"Good location and view. Pool nice amenity for post-activity down time."

Hotel Carasco

8/10 Good

"I cannot emphasize enough the absolute beauty of this property. The hotel is situated on a cliffside about a 15 minute walk from Marina Corta. The pool and rocky sea-access are breathtaking. If you snag a chair in the morning, which were sometimes hard to come by with people "reserving" chairs with towels, you can spend the day lounging and taking dips into the ocean. Incredible. Breakfast was included, though a little basic, but the views from the restaurant alone make up for it. The AC worked well in the rooms, which were a little basic, but we were not expecting perfection on an island. There is a small, reasonably well air conditioned gym in a room by the pool. The restaurant for dinner was fine, but I would recommend going into town to eat. The staff were friendly and helpful and the bartenders were great. I really cannot emphasize enough, however, how beautiful this place is. I had a great stay."

Hotel Mea - Aeolian Charme

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were amazing, A Air conditioning worked perfectly. Our Superior Sea View room had a great view. The pool was our favourite part, as the weather never dropped below 30 degrees, it was refreshing to have to say the least. Only a few minutes to walk into the town/main streets."

Orsa Maggiore Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a bit remote. We contacted the hotel to arrange the shuttle while we were on the ferry, but were told we had to call, which we weren’t able to do at the time. This made the arrival a little inconvenient. The pool has a beautiful view, although there aren’t quite enough lounge chairs for all the guests. Overall, though, we had a nice stay. The staff was friendly, the hotel was clean, and we enjoyed our time there."

Hotel Cutimare

10/10 Excellent

"Séjour de quelques jours en famille (5) et nous avons tous été conquis par ce charmant hôtel. Tout le personnel de l’hôtel a été courtois. L’offre pour le petit déjeuner était variée et goûteuse. Le quartier est tranquille, l’accès à la mer direct et le coucher du soleil mémorable. Nous y reviendrons avec grand plaisir!"

Hotel Bougainville

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property. Lovely staff. Could have used more guidance/support for boat tours. Huge breakfast offerings. Very small shower. Beautiful pool."

Hotel L’Ariana ISOLE EOLIE - UNA Esperienze

8/10 Good

"The property was well maintained and was excellent. It was disappointing that the restaurant was not open as there is very little I places to eat."

Hotel Signum

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly, corteous staff, spacious, cozy rooms with beautiful views, delicious food and amazing spa pools and treatments."
