Santavenere Hotel - The Leading Hotels of the World

This is the most lovely hotel. It was my favorite of the 5 we stayed in on our two week trip mid October. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful and comfortable. Check in was very smooth. Our room was wonderful but the view was the highlight. It's so breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful. The weather did not allow for us to enjoy the BEAUTIFUL beach and pool. The food was really good. It's a little on the upscale side as far as portions and choices, but everything we had was delicious. I would go back to this property in a heartbeat!

Everything!

A stunningly beautiful location in what is a very unspoilt area of Italy. All of the staff were amazingly friendly, helpful, engaging as nothing was too much trouble.

The quality of food at dinner was fine but could have been better.

- Stunning property, comfortable room. We loved the private patio overlooking the sea, framed by bougainvillea. - Great restaurants onsite. Breakfast overlooking the sea is a dream. Incredible croissants baked onsite, and we also loved the pizza. - Beautiful walk down to the sea through the pine trees. We wanted to bottle up the scent and take it home with us. Sea + pines is a dreams. If you don’t want to walk, they’ll arrange a golf cart. - Personal, warm staff, looking to help you at every turn. They remembered our names, helped us book excursions, and attended us throughout the day.

- Would have loved a full length mirror in the room. But I’m grasping for straws here. - Unfortunately the sea wasn’t calm while we were there, so the beach at the hotel was closed off. Not the hotel’s fault, and we just drove down the coast to find a safer spot to swim.

Very nice hotel at a perfect location. Away from hordes of tourists. Feels like almost empty whilst in fact fully booked due to big territory and a lot of staff.

From our very arrival at the hotel's motorized gate through to our goodbyes we were delighted with the hotel and staff at the Santavenere! Everyone was very friendly and helpful at the hotel and the property is a joy to spend time relaxing, swimming and eating. The attention to detail and the quality of everything is amazing. It all feels authentic to Italy though and so many of the staff we spoke to are from the area. The breakfasts are to die for and unfortunately time did not allow for a dinner meal at the hotel. Swimming was a delight as were the waterfront lounge beds and staff. The front desk organized a private water tour by boat and it was spectacular. We are returning for a long stay and we look forward to it!

I can't think of anything.

Everything. Stunning views, great facilities, really comfortable stay. The staff are amazing.Top class.

This is truly one of the gems! Beautiful location, exterior of building and interior, Spectacular views, great room, extensive breakfast, service and friendliness of staff, the surrounding gardens. Everything

Service, hotel and great territory helped to recharge. Stairs to the beach and in general views are stunning.

Nothing at all!

The views from our room and the breakfast area were absolutely fabulous. I could have sat there all day. The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive. For example on short notice they booked a private tour of the local grotto/cave. Breakfast was incredible. Delicious and missing nothing

Nothing it was great

Amazing staff, exceptional facilities, beautiful private beach and large grounds. Wonderful hotel restaurants and staff more than happy to recommend and book places to eat in neighbouring villages / towns.

This is one of the best resorts I've been inI have no words to describe this piece of art.Starting from the vintage rooms to the most delicious dinner, beach, staff, spa...

I liked everything

Stunning resort with beautiful decor, luxurious room and magnificent view. Staff were exceptional- above and beyond to make the stay memorable. Breakfast choice was wonderful. Restaurant excellent- facilities were magnificent.

The views were amazing, the staff incredibly kind, and we enjoyed having access to kayaks, sups, and snorkeling equipment. Beautiful scenery everywhere you look, and the food was amazing.

The ac in our room wouldn't cool the room and eventually stopped working. They sent someone several times but did not have the materials on hand to fix it. They offered a fan instead of another room.

Great location, lovely private beach, very nice pool, immaculately presented, friendly staff, lovely comfortable room, good food

Nothing!

Everything was perfect. So much space everywhere… beach, lounges, restaurant…etc. Azure sea.. heaven for swimming. No shortage of umbrellas and sun beds. A delight for visitors exhausted by the mass of tourists elsewhere. A real oasis of peace and tranquillity. All staff incredibly helpful and discrete. We stayed only 2 nights but I would go back any time for a longer stay. It was the highlight of our journey though Campania and Calabria. Thanks so very much.

Cannot complain about anything.

Amazing location with perfect clear swimming in the sea. Very peaceful oasis with incredible views. Best bed on trip so far. Easy walk to marina.

Nothing - it is very special. Golf carts to take you down to the sea or to your car if needed. Service was impeccable. Wish we had at least one more night. Can rent a boat at nearby marina. Property has kayaks to use. If you order drinks down at beach be prepared to pay $

The location, ambience and quality of the hotel facilities were all exceptional. The space in the hotel grounds and the number of bars and dining places meant that there were never any queues. Everything about the hotel was top class. The breakfasts were 'out of this world' and the piano lounge decoration was extremely impressive.

Although the food quality on the dinner menu was exceptional, there could have been a greater choice perhaps?

The manager solved a very challenging problem on our first night. She listened and was responsive to our concerns. The result was a wonderful relaxing vacation. Highly recommend- will return.

The hotel and surroundings are beautiful, The beach and the pool are also stunning. It was good having a restaurant on site.

It would be good to have a fridge in the room and a coffee machine which is pretty standard these days.

Beach club excellent but need more sun beds on the beachPool VG but a bit oldFood vg breakfast and lunch
