Hotel la Mandorla

My best friend and I came to visit Ischia for the first time and had the privilege to stay here at Hotel La Mandorla. This hotel is truly a hidden gem. Giovan, the hotel manager, and all the hotel staff welcomed us in with utmost generosity, friendliness, kindness, care, and true hospitality. The hotel grounds are absolutely beautiful, and perfectly cleaned from top to bottom. It is nestled in the perfect location, just a quick 5 minute walk down to the water front where you are greeted by many beach clubs, and ocean front restaurants. We could not have asked for anything better. It was the most wonderful experience, and we will be coming back again and again. Hotel La Mandorla will now be our home away from home.

the hotel is a stone's throw from one of the most beatiful beaches on the island. very clean and well-kept environment, the staff makes you feel at home. good choice of restaurants in the immediately vicinity. I spent a really pleasant and relaxing holiday also this year.

I have been staying in La Mandorla for over 40 years. Starting when I was a child and I am now in my 50s. The hotel is simply exceptional. It is one of the best run, friendliest and enjoyable hotels I have ever stayed in and that is why I keep on returning. It is very beautiful, with a large garden filled with flowers and lemon trees. They have a large terrace for sunbathing, with two certified hot baths and sauna. The owners whom I have know most of my life, who also run the hotel, are exceptional. They are incredibly professional, super friendly, multilingual and have utmost integrity. Nothing is too much trouble for them. They are also extremely well connected on the island and can arrange anything for you and solve any problem you may have. The air-conditioned rooms are super clean, comfortable and large with most having a beautiful sea view with balcony. The breakfast is fantastic, with a wide choice of food, both hot and cold. The private beach of the hotel, which is only a few meters away, is accessed by a small private walkway. The beach is simply beautiful, and the location is the best in all of Maronti. Near the hotel are some of the best restaurants Ischia has to offer, serving fresh fish and exquisite pasta dishes all prepared while you wait. The hotel is one of the most accessible on the island, direct transport from the ferry either via bus or taxi, dropped right in front of the hotel entrance. Marco, Giovanni and Antonio are the nicest people you will ever meet and they love what they do and ensure all guests have the perfect stay at their hotel. They take a real interest in their guests and are very sociable and kind. There is a bar right by the reception which they run and where you can relax on the large terrace overlooking the sea with beautiful unobstructed views of Sant Angelo to the one side and Capri to the other. Ischia is one of my most favorite holiday destinations and I visit every year, regardless of where in the world I am staying. I usually fly about 11 hours to get there, but I will always return to La Mandorla as it offers peace, tranquility and an authentically Italian summer vacation, with good food and beautiful beaches.

La Mandorla is true family owned hotel that makes you feel part of the family. Everybody was extremly friendly, hotel has excellent location practically at the beach , close to restaurants, bus and taxi stop. We will definitely come again.

Warm welcome and great location. Antonio& Giovanni are very helpful :) Close to the bus stop. Our room had a lovely view from our balcony, the bed was very comfortable. Very clean and airy too.Big bonus was the fridge and the fan on the ceiling .Breakfast had good choices and was plentiful.Would recommend and will be back ,thank you

Hotel La Mandorla is 2 minutes from Maronti Beach and 2 minutes from the bus stop to Ischia Porto. The sea view and a balcony with a table and chairs were a great surprise in a double room for single use. And there was also a great room feature - a ceiling fan you can turn on/off to make a room a bit cooler and with more air. I was not using A/C at all. The hotel's surroundings is quiet; you might only hear waves at night. The bathroom has a window which provides the room with more natural light and air, and I also loved high water pressure in the shower! La Mandorla offers a combined continental and American breakfast (eggs, fruits and fresh juices included). I loved their long espresso in a big cup. The service at breakfast is quick, polite and friendly. And the whole staff at the hotel makes you feel at home from the moment you walk in. To name a few - Antonio, Giovanni, Marco, Salvatore were always there to respond to all my requests. I cannot thank them enough for helping me when I got sick, and particularly in a situation when I lost my mobile phone in a taxi which was recovered in a couple of hours. They get the right balance between professional service and friendliness so you will get the best of both. If I can, I would give 6-star rating for my stay in La Mandorla.
