Il Pellicano

From the moment we arrived until we left we felt at home, a fantastic welcome from Angelo and his staff and a nice upgrade to a room with a sea view. The service was top notch throughout our stay, as was breakfast, lunch and dinner. We can happily recommend the restaurant, we ate the Michelin menu on the first day and the classic menu on the second day, both were really good. Unfortunately we were at the hotel just when they opened and due to the weather we couldn't sit outside and eat which was a shame as the view from the veranda is breathtaking. Otherwise the pool bar was very nice too with really good service, the indoor bar was also without any complaints. Something we definitely want to highlight is the gym, the gym is important in a hotel. 5 star Mediterranean hotels normally don't have any particularly fun gyms, Il Pellicano offers without comparison the best gym we have visited in a hotel - regardless of star rating. Good machines, friendly staff and order. Finally something important if you drive Italian, good parking with plenty of space where you don't have to worry about whether your car is still whole and clean the next day - Il Pellicano offers valet parking with a fantastically nice garage. We could write much much more, we can only recommend the hotel and will come back many times. We thank Angelo and his staff for two fantastic days and nights, the service was not only good it was going the extra mile.

This is a beautiful hotel with an excellent restaurant. We loved the easy lunch menu (the Italian version of a Cobb salad was divine) and enjoyed two exquisite dinners -- one with the traditional menu and one with their more formal eight-course tasting menu. Both were divine and the service was so kind and generous -- we felt spoiled and cared for. The joy that this staff brings to their work is incredible. Thank you!

A 5-star oasis, for sure. Beautiful environs — our second visit in as many years! The pool, the beach club! The only complaints: the bugs (pro-tip: bring repellant for the mosquito and beware of the wasps at meal times) and a relatively limited culinary offering.
