Monte Solaro

What can I add to the glowing reviews already given for this wonderful B&B! The views are as amazing as everyone has said before; Costanzo and the staff are as helpful as everyone has said and we had a fabulous five nights stay. This is a small but perfectly formed B&B with only four rooms allowing eight guests in total. This meant that the B&B was very peaceful and breakfasts became a relaxing time to chat to other guests and talk about our trips around the Island. The small and intimate style of this B&B made it a perfect venue for friendly chats, best whilst watching the incredible sunsets. We stayed in the Grotta Azzurra room which whilst quite small, was perfectly comfortable with air conditioning and outside patio. There is an area of Sun loungers where you can relax just below the pool, which was a bit chilly but fine for a hot day! A continental breakfast was served outside on the same level as the rooms, which was basic but the continuous coffee was very welcome and the fresh croissants was delicious. The views from our room were amazing, but there has to be a trade off and that is the 300 or so steps up Monte Solaro to the B&B. However, do not be put off. Firstly the steps are not as bad as they may sound and there are a few good spots on the way up to stop and take in the view. Secondly, Costanzo and his brother were always willing to give us a lift in the 4x4 after a night out. Costanzo also picked us up from the bus terminal when we arrived and dropped us back there when we left. In summary, we had a wonderful five nights at this lovely B&B and thank Costanzo, his brother and all the staff for making our stay so memorable.
