Castellabate hotellia

Plussat: Costabile was a very generous, hospitable and welcoming host. He upgraded us to a superior room at no extra charge. The room and ensuite was beautifully presented. Constabile was keen to share local knowledge and history with us. The property was very well situated with a short walk to the beach, restaurants, shops and the square. There was secure off street parking. There was ample tasty breakfast including homemade cake.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The location is perfect, it's only 5 minutes walking from the seaside and it's located in the heart of the city. Costabile, has been the better host i've never met, very kind, polite and friendly always helpful. The breakfast was delicious and everyday different. We really enjoyed our days in there and for sure we will come back.

Plussat: We had a wonderful time at Posidonia. The owner of Posidonia was incredibly nice and helpful. He gave us a lot of tips and we had great conversations. The room was very comfortable and everything is very clean. The staff is great. We could really relax. We can only recommend Posidonia. We'll certainly be back.

Plussat: The room was fantastic, we were given a suite as an upgrade which was amazing! The toilet was spacious and clean. The breakfast was delicious and everything was fresh and local produce. The host was so welcoming it made us want to stay for longer. We will definitely be coming back and recommend staying here to everyone!

Miinukset: Nothing, there was literally nothing that we didn't like. Everything was perfect!

Plussat: Very clean, organized, kind and the location is beautiful. It has a lot of culture

Miinukset: The unstable hot tap but it’s something small, near all the other incredible things there is.

Plussat: Fantastic view from the balcony and terrace. The staff were very warm and welcoming. A lovely place to stay for couples. There are lots of steps up to the centre, which may be challenging for some. My husband and I are pretty active so it wasn’t a problem at all for us.

Miinukset: No negative comments we would have loved to have stayed longer.

Plussat: -We stayed at Superior Suite with Terrace and Sea View for 3 nights. The room looked exactly like the pictures shown on the website, the best part of the room is the big balcony with the glass windows, we had great sea view from the balcony. Both the window and the roof of the balcony can be opened in order for people to better enjoy the view. -The property has a very big and beautiful garden, breakfast were served in the garden with amazing sea view. -The property provides private parking but we did not use it because there is a public and free parking area right next to the property. - The center of Castellabate is easily reachable by a few minutes walk.

Miinukset: This is not something I didn’t like about the property but more like a little reminder. The property is located in the middle of the mountains, although it might look like it is close to the sea but it is not walkable to the beach. You always need to drive the car to the seaside towns and beaches.

Plussat: Everything about this suite was great! The view from the balcony is to die for + the whole facilities with the terrace, the breakfast room and the fabulous host Ciro. Speaking Italian was a bonus!

Miinukset: Nothing to report.

Plussat: The location and view from the room was stunning. The room was stylishly furnished spacious and airy. We loved it. We would highly recommend it.

Plussat: Location and sea views

Miinukset: Balcony wall was high so couldn’t enjoy the view when seated

Plussat: Ciro was super friendly and accomodating. The views were spectacular and Ilwe had the most romantic few days swimming, eating and exploring the town. The beauty and the kindness we experienced stay with us. J&G

Plussat: the view the property nice staff

Plussat: You have to see the view from the hotel windows.

Plussat: Great location and facilities. Lello was a great host and helped with our stay. Very nice person. Wine tasting arranged by him was great! Breakfast on the terrace was incredible and views were spectacular. Whole Cilento region is great so a MUST SEE and MUST Stay in Residenza D'epoca Tamara.

Plussat: Beautiful town, lovely view from the restaurant. Simply but very well furnished and finished. Very clean and spacious.

Miinukset: There are high steps around the building and town which are part of the Medieval charm but not easy for navigating with a pram or someone who is not very mobile. I was almost 6 months pregnant.

Plussat: Breakfast buffet was varied, delicious and plentiful. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable with a balcony overlooking the harbour. The spa is amazing - 7 rooms with different experiences such as salt treatment, seaweed, steam, sauna, flotation, bubble pools as well as the indoor/outdoor seawater pool and relaxation areas. The staff are friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: There was nothing that we did not like. I can’t write any more about that. Our stay really was fabulous. No complaints.

Plussat: Excellent in every sense of the word!!

Plussat: The hotel is well located beside the Marina and has its own pool beside the sea. If you enjoy a spa then I suspect it is the prime reason for visiting. We did not use or check out the Spa but it is obviously big business and slippers and towelling robes are provided so you get get to the Spa area. Our room had a terrace overlooking the sea which would be nice in a longer visit. Seemed to have a nice pool and lounge areas and a private beach.

Miinukset: WlFi dropped out every time we switched off our phone/iPad and necessitated logging back in. Lighting in room poor, could not see instructions for safe in th evening. The compendium was a list of what not to do; the pool is closed for two hours during day time - lifeguard at lunch!?. Parking is 5 min walk away because I think marina authorities control area outside hotel. Poor maintenance - our bathroom had mould on the ceiling and on some of the tiles - in a health resort! To be fair when I showed reception the photos,they offered and applied a discount . The address given in the booking.com reservation did not say th hotel was in San Marco Di Castellabate, only Castellabate which is a town on top of a hill, but may be the name of the commune, but does not help when trying to find the hotel

Plussat: The room is large, tidy and quiet with lift access to the third floor - decent bathroom and shower

Miinukset: Disappointing resort with so few cafes, bars or restaurants, or fishing restaurants-so very little to do apart from using the spa

Plussat: The spa was amazing! The beach was just courageous and the room very clean and with an amazing view!

Plussat: Having a restaurant on the property.

Miinukset: Did not like automatic coffee machines, would run out and long lines. I believe they should have service for real coffee. That was TERRIBLE.

Plussat: Great location, looking directly into the sea. In our case it was a fantastic price/quality ratio. Good breakfast. Super nice staff, they helped us ship our luggage and gave valuable tips. Overall a very good stay in a romantic scenery.

Miinukset: The room and some facilities could be updated, they are a bit old and you can tell (painting, etc.)

Plussat: My husband teen daughter and I based ourselves here for 2 weeks in July. What a great location with views to die for! Pool was gorgeous and clean and Alfonso and Florin were both so helpful and welcoming. We had a one-bed apartment which was lovely and clean and had the most amazing views. Apartment was exactly as shown. Beds very comfy and change of bed linen and towels provided when requested Would have happily spent the whole holiday sitting on the spacious terrace just looking at the views! We did also visit all the main sights - Positano, Capri, Amalfi etc from here by boat - San Marco just a 5 minute drive away had v comfortable ferries going to all these locations and more, which was really convenient and great value. SM Di Castellebata was a lovely base also with great restaurants and some lovely little shops/cafes and then the beautiful old hill town of Castellebata just a short drive away. Just perfect. Highly recommend.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: This a a great apartment. The beds are really comfy and the kitchen well equipped. The pool and gardens were lovely and the owner and staff were lovely and very accommodating. We didn’t find it an issue but it is up a steep hill from the town so if you have mobility issues and don’t have a car then this probably not for you.

Miinukset: Nothing - everything was perfect.

Plussat: Great location, nice pool, helpful attendant

Miinukset: Apartment we stayed in was very damp with black stains on wall and our clothes became damp and musty.

Plussat: The location was a short walk into town and great for us with two small children. Florin was always available for any help/advice and Alfonso also personally came and checked in on us to make sure everything was ok with the place. We would definitely return and send others in this direction. The town is very cute and there is lots to explore in the area (three nights just wasn’t enough).

Plussat: Lovely view, comfortable bed, great pool.

Miinukset: Shower is a little small and shower screen is difficult to open

Plussat: Lovely apartment, very well equipped and with fantastic view and very good location

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Nice large Pool, good breakfast

Miinukset: Rooms a little bit too small

Plussat: Hotel grounds. Receptionist spoke very good English and was very freindly. Not too far from the shore.

Miinukset: The room was small and the room facilities did not meet 4 star qualifications. The restaurant offered a very limited menu, however there were good restaurants nearby. No sea view. A note to the hotel: Waze does not have your correct address.

Plussat: Very nice location, excellent dinner at the restaurant and very helpful and friendly staff.

Plussat: Nice surrounding

Miinukset: No fresh juice unfortunately.

Plussat: Staff friendliness!!! Very clean and tidy, beautiful hotel matches the environment, nice plants and flowers. Great location!!! Seaview and seasound, 10 min slow walking -) to a beautiful sand beach, 5min to restaurant, 4km to beautiful town Castellabate!

Miinukset: Music tip: relaxing Jazz music during breakfast.

Plussat: Location to main piazza, beach and sunset views.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Great air conditioning. Good location and nice swimming pool even if the view was disappointing from there. Shuttle driver was terrific and very helpful.

Miinukset: There was never any mention of extra charges for beach facilities until checkout. Breakfast was not up to standard of a 4 star hotel. Room was satisfactory.

Plussat: This hotel was a real find! It is located in a beautiful small village with a harbour and no, or very few, British tourists. It is a short pleasant walk to a wonderful sandy beach that is massively better than anything we found on the Amalfi coast/Sorrento. We had a room with a sea view that had the most perfect sunset with Capri in the distance. The building, grounds and pool were great. The half board was good - Christo our waiter was superb! Although we were the only English visitors a good number of key staff spoke good English to make the visit go brilliantly.

Miinukset: Perhaps better lighting in the dining room for the evening meal to enhance the atmosphere.

Plussat: The staff were so friendly, helpful and welcoming. The hotel is in a beautiful spot! Thank you for everything!

Plussat: Great location. San marco was peaceful little village and we enjoyed our stay very much. Everything was allright in the hotel. Everybody was friendly and breakfast was good. Lovely view from our window.

Miinukset: Bed was a bit hard.

Miinukset: Really needs a refurbishment.

Plussat: I loved how private it was and how close it was to the beach. I loved that it had a pool, and it was clean and had a bar. Over all it was absolutely beautiful. We will be back !!!!!

Miinukset: Internet.

Plussat: The location was great with its own beach area. Also the swimming pool was fab. We like the rooms in the old part of the hotel. In keeping with the location.

Miinukset: Softer beds. A little on the hard side. Breakfast could be better but quite typical of Italian hotel breakfasts.

Plussat: Property is sprawling but a bit run down. Drive to room is on a dusty dirt track. No restaurant on premises but a very short walk to old city center and seaside restaurants.

Miinukset: Rooms and grounds need an update.

Plussat: Location amazing

Miinukset: Assumed from the pictures of the Family suite/apartment that it was in the main villa. They (whoever is responsible for this ) should manage expectations as the rooms we were allocated were bare, basic and jot the luxury we had expected. We were returning guests who previously stayed in the Main House. Tea/coffee facilities needed in rooms as not available. Breakfast quite basic but adequate and delicious.

Plussat: Setting is beautiful Nice pool

Plussat: It was everything we expected and more. Lovely, helpful staff, not your run of the mill hotel experience, different and all the better for that. Great experience all round.

Miinukset: Hard to locate when you first arrive.

Plussat: It was located right on the beach and had lovely views.

Miinukset: My room was horrible. It was quite small with a sloping ceiling so I hit my head several times. The bed was as hard as a rock. The bathroom was so small I had to close the door to squeeze behind it to get to the toilet. There was no outlet in the bathroom and no mirror in the bedroom. I had to climb 5 flights of stairs to get to the room sometimes in the dark at night because the stairwell is not lit. There is no enclosed public room at this hotel. Everything is outdoors. If it's raining you have to stay in your room. Customer service is not helpful. I asked for another room or a better bed. I emailed the hotel upon my return home explaining my experience and I have been ignored. I will never return to Palazzo Belmonte nor do I recommend to travelers.

Plussat: Excellent continental buffet

Miinukset: Nothing - we've stayed here before. It's a historic building set on the seashore!

Plussat: Friendly attentive staff, great atmosphere

Plussat: Excellent breakfast, beautiful location, lovely staff.

Miinukset: Dining on site was outsourced but hotel very helpful in finding us excellent local restaurants

Plussat: Staff very welcoming and could not do enough to help, made us feel like we were part of their family. Even invited us to attend a family event and gave us a bottle of prosecco

Miinukset: Nothing, everything fantastic, just wanted the shower not to leak onto bathroom floor but this is trivial

Plussat: Room was spacious and very clean with excellent shower. Staff are welcoming

Miinukset: Breakfast was somewhat sparse
