    I would only suggest adding a bit more continental/salty options to the breakfast, but I know it's not local :) A tea station in the room would be great as well

    It's a wonderful place right by the sea. We saw sea from our bad. Beach is huge and very beautiful. It's now new, but well kept. Although they speak very little English, the staff is wonderful. As they have a restaurant and a bar, you can spend time there without even going anywhere. You would probably need a car to conveniently get there, but it is worth it.

    I did not like, that everything was for additional price, for example private beach stuff. And maybe price-value ratio could have been better.

    The view, location and the beach are the best!

    An unbelievably beautiful view and place on the beach that offers a lot of peace and tranquility.

    It's not their fault, but the internet wasn't working throughout the hotel when I was there. I happened to have a lot of online work to do, so this was an inconvenience; like I said, though, I'm sure it's not their fault. And they did try to accommodate me in another room, but that room didn't have internet access at that time either. There is a "living room" that is close to the router and seems to always have the internet working, and the internet worked in the outside area of the restaurant, too.

    The place was absolutely lovely. It is on such a beautiful piece of land on the beach. The beach itself was lovely. I went in the water twice. The waves were the perfect size for me to swim. The people who worked there were very nice and made me feel very much at home.

    I liked everything but maybe a suggestion, they should include lunch dinner packages in the lodging fee. And start serving pizza :)

    The location is unbeatable! The hotel is right by the water, there is no other hotel like this on this long coastline. The hotel had a huge private beach, the sea had the most beautiful turquoise colour. We loved the food in the restaurant we ate there every lunch and dinner. Our hotel room had a balcony looking right on the sea.

    The room was very cramped. The shower was old, small, was patched up with some paste and didn’t look pleasant. It worked well though and had lots of hot water.

    The location was very good. The hotel as such and the facilities were well kept. Beautiful pool. Nice breakfast.

    We didn't like that we had to leave the keys to our car at the reception during night. It was nowhere mentioned before booking, and that kind of surprised us.

    In economy room the balcony and view is poor, although the room is larger than in see-view room. The shower cabin is rather small. For breakfast we would wish also fresh vegetables (e.g. tomatoes, cucumbers). The restaurant is ok.

    The hotel is situated in the beautiful spot just on the beach with clean water surrounded by mountains. Beach with fine pebble and clean water. Swiming pool with free umbrellas just 50m to the sea. Very friendly and careful staff. Clean rooms. Minibar. Good breakfast.

    I have nothing negative to say!

    This is a wonderful hotel. It is located on a stunning shoreline with views of the sea and the imposing cliffs of Acquafredda. The beach is rocky, and they have beach umbrellas and chairs available to rent. You can walk along the beach to the north and check out the different rock formations, and to the south to see more views and forest. The sea was nice and warm for swimming. They also have a lovely pool with beautiful landscaping. Our room had an excellent view of the sea and the cliffs. The food is OUTSTANDING! They show you the fresh fish, such as a huge swordfish, and then you order it. We stayed 5 nights, and we needed that much time to sample all of their delicious food. The breakfast is a complete spread of rolls, croissants, cereal, fruit, juices, cappuccino made to order, hard boiled eggs, and more. The service is IMPECCABLE. Above all, the service is what made our stay so special. For example, they helped us book an excursion from the port. They also have free parking. Thank you Hotel Gabbiano, we will be back!

    We stayed in a room for 3 persons. The spring mattress of the extra bed is outdated; it definitely needs a new mattress or at least a cover mattress to make it comfortable.

    Beautiful location, beach and pool area.
