Capriccioli Holidays

Our bathroom had a terrible stench of drainage each time we ran the water in the sink and the room in general had a strong smell of humidity. Bathroom needs upgrading. Other than that the room was clean. Grounds are lovely and very well kept, breakfast was good and staff were very nice.

A very beautiful hotel with an amazing pool and private beach. We really enjoyed our time here and the staff were all fantastic!

The booking in at reception was straightforward but we had to wait an hour for the room to be ready. Once in the room we discovered the safe did not work and the light just inside the door where the wardrobes were flickered on and off constantly. We reported this to reception the same day but nothing was done about it during our stay! There was a good choice for breakfast but it was the same every day. Staff were friendly, the rooms were kept spotless, as was the pool area. Overall we had a good stay at hotel Marana.

The hotel itself is decent, and our room was clean. However, several important details were not disclosed before booking, which left us disappointed. The main reason we chose this hotel over an Airbnb or a property in the city was because it is marketed as a beachfront resort with its own private beach. While it does have a section with loungers, they are not included for hotel guests and cost €25–30 per day. Considering the room rates, this felt excessive. If a hotel is advertised as a beach resort, loungers should either be complimentary or offered at a much lower rate. There are nearby beach clubs with nicer facilities and better beaches for less. The hotel also advertises parking, but it costs €25 per day. The only alternative is street parking, which the hotel says is “at your own risk.” Since it’s located beside a public beach in a residential area, street parking fills up quickly. A car is also essential because there is very little within walking distance, making the paid parking feel almost unavoidable. The rooms are somewhat outdated. We were assigned a ground-floor room with almost no natural light and very little privacy, as the entrance faced a busy shared walkway. It also looked quite different from the photos shown online. If there is such a large variation between room types, the hotel should include representative photos of all options. The gym photos are also misleading. It is small, has minimal equipment, and does not have the beach views shown online.

Le personnel est toujours très attentionné, la propreté est en premier plan au lever du jour jusqu’au coucher en finissant avec un petit chocolat. Passé un très bon séjour. Merci à l’équipe du tonnerre.
