Hotel Alba D'Amore

I was lucky enough to be staying in Lampedusa for a while. The location of Alba D'Amore is excellent. Near to Guitgia Beach and a comfortable walk to Via Roma; the main Street in Lampedusa. When I booked, I checked the photos and arranged half board. On arrival I was collected from the airport, a 5 minute journey, by Andrea who was very courteous and welcoming. Arriving at the Hotel I was greeted by Caterina whom I had been emailing to book my time at the Hotel. I was shown to my room and went down to dinner. First impressions were 'WOW', as the hotel had been getting a facelift since the pictures were taken, it was like walking into a 5 star establishment. The dining staff, Roberto, Roberta and Marta were extremely attentive although we all struggled with my very badly spoken Italian! But this didn't stop them all from helping to explain the dinner choices which we're delicious every night. The spa at the time was being refurbished but I was lucky to be shown what had been completed already and it matched the high quality finish of the restaurant and newly refitted rooms. This hotel is one to book for any length of stay for the friendliest welcome and continued help even by the lovely maids. The chefs cook fresh food every sitting and I ate like a king!
