The hotel is family owned and operated since 1960. Fabio and Loretta are the most gracious hosts who go out of the way to make you feel that you are at your home away from home. The hotel restaurant staff were all pleasant and helpful, especially Giuseppe and Carlotta, the owner's delightful daughter!
The hotel restaurant served wonderful meals at very reasonable prices. They also provided vegan meals for my partner who was able to enjoy several meals in the restaurant, which hasn't happened in the 3 years I've been with her. The breakfast, which is included, had some of the most tasty croissants I've had. There is also indoor and outdoor seating under a lovely Terrace.
The hotel sits in front of a cobblestone beach that is met by an ocean full of surfers. Bonsai Beach Surf school is on the location. The beach also provides amazing sunset photo opportunities.
The hotel is also pet friendly. The house dog, King Arthur is a sweetheart. While the hotel is actually in Santa Marinella, it is a pleasant walk to the Santa Servera Castle.
The hotel itself was built and designed in the 1960s by Fabio's father. While the decor is a little bit dated, it has a charm and character that is warm and inviting, as well as walls covered by lots of artwork. Some of this artwork was created by the owner himself. Fabio started running the hotel, taking it over with his family in 1987.
We feel like we have made new friends and family that we will see again in the future.
Situated in the characteristic Piazza Trieste, this hotel is set in the center of the seaside town of Santa Marinella, beside the wonderful Odescalchi Castle.

In the light of day, the place looked fine, and I suppose it'll be nice for summer travelers given its proximity to the sea. The hotel manager was also much nicer to us the next day.

It was the perfect stay for my quick visit to Santa Marinella! In this cute little square with a grocery store and multiple restaurants/coffee shops. Close to the water and fun area to just wander around! Like a 5 minute walk to the train station!

Cute, little cottage with a beautiful garden. Secluded and quiet but super centrally located. Newly renovated and fully equipped kitchen. Extra beds behind curtains, so a family can fit.
A little hidden gem, still easily found thanks to the hosts directions.

The sea view and the perfect location for our needs.

Santa Marinella is a very quiet town, with very few food options at the time I visited, second week of April. I feel that the beach and bay area could be renovated to be more welcoming. The best restaurant to eat was Punicum, their food was 10/10. It wasn't well advertised, I stumbled upon it whilst out walking one day.

The ocean is steps away.
The ocean is steps away. We were there off season so many things were closed. Come a little later in April.
Restaurants around our BB opened after 7 , se we ventured a little further and found options open prior to 7.

This was a pleasant place to spend a few days before taking a cruise from Civitiveccia which is just one rail stop away. Winter temperatures were excellent for walking around the resort and visiting adjacent towns by rail.
Although winter, the resort still has the main facilities available.

The hosts were wonderful.
The hosts were wonderful. The room was great for a night or two. Located close to beach. The small fridge was appreciated. The pool was refreshing after a long day on the road... more of a large soaking pool with attached jet tub. Lots of outdoor seating and lovely second floor terrace. The breakfast was exceptional.

The breakfast and view was perfect. Room clean and quiet... but the air conditioning was nothing more than a fan. Anyone who needs a cool room at night will not get it. That being said, I know some Italian hotels turn the cold air off until the summer .. (giving them the benefit of the doubt). But it was June. The air outside was cool but mosquitoes came in .. so window open wasn’t an option. The private beach across the street wasn’t swimmable. All rocks. The pool was clean, though I didn’t go in.
We had a corner seaview room and also 2 rooms facing the road. I would highly recommend the corner seaview rooms because the lighting was very good. The view from the restaurant is water front and beautiful. The hotel has access to a rocky beach and they provide beach chairs plus towels. They also provided wet shoes for walking in the water because there are a lot seaweed growing on the rocks. . The sea water was clear and calm for swimming too. Overall we had an relaxing stay.
We decided to stay here for one night before flying out of Rome the next day. The location was perfect, 30 minutes from the airport, walking distance to the town and restaurants (10 min), and allowed us to get in one last swim. We arrived early and the staff were really helpful, stored our bags, and got us chairs on the beach to enjoy the water (thank you!). The hotel is not fancy but it is nice, very clean, the beds are comfortable, and the breakfast was really tasty.
My wife, son and I stayed in this hotel yesterday. We needed a place to stay for one night between Rome and Tuscany. It’s a charming place in a small town with views of the ocean. They lady who runs it made us feel very welcome, and the restaurant next to the hotel (Aquamarine) served an amazing dinner of the freshest seafood. Highly recommend!
Liked the room style, had a fab balcony with gorgeous sea view. Had great pool area and access directly to the beach ( have to cross a small road). The restaurant was very accommodating as we don’t do fish which is their main menu and made us spaghetti even though it was their going home time . So appreciated that very much .
The apartment looked great with its beach theme, and had everything we needed. Very complete, with things like bathrobes, oil/salt/pepper for cooking, tea/coffee etc. It was also very clean. The host was attentive and easy to reach per app. Short distance to the beach (about 5 minutes walk).
Large and spacious.
A ll on ground floor.
Private entrance.
Well equipped kitchen
Private sunny terrace.
Very close to beach. (Just to be aware, unless you go to small, rocky "free" beaches you pay E40 - 50 for 2 beds + 1 sunshade. The white ones are very comfortable and you get towels)
The stuff were great, kindly and friendly. the location is awsome, like 3 minutes by walking to the beach. 10 minutes to the supermarkets and 10 mins by walking to the center beach. the breakfast was good enough, not self service but we could say a simple italian breakfast.
It was the perfect stay for my quick visit to Santa Marinella! In this cute little square with a grocery store and multiple restaurants/coffee shops. Close to the water and fun area to just wander around! Like a 5 minute walk to the train station!
Very nice appartment. Huge terrace . 10 min walk to supermarket. 5 min to pebbled beach. 25 min to sandy beach.
There is everything you need in the appartment for a comfortable stay.
We enjoyed our stay very much
Rooms were spacious and very clean. Ac in all the rooms and big refrigerator. Balcony t o see the sea and private parking with gate so very safe. Walking distance to food and caffe! Pool and beach steps away!
we arrived the evening before our cruise shortly before dinner. our only regret was that we didn’t arrive a day sooner to fully enjoy the hotel, beach front property, and the town.
