  • I took two adults and a child to the museum. The adults were very interested but it was not so exciting for a child, unless the child speaks Italian whereupon the curator's explanations are useful.

  • The most memorable restaurant experience of our trip. The restaurant picked us up from our boat with a rubber dinghy. We disembarked near huge red marble rocks with the waves crashing up to our thighs. There was a misting system above our table and we were kept cool throughout lunch. We sat beside the kitchen and could see the chef preparing the food. He cooked with such love in his eyes. We ordered the food and we loved it. The mussels were fresh, the clams in the vongole were juicy. Must try fresh raw serrano prawns. They were really good. We were so full, we couldn't even climb up the rubber dinghy and all of us fell in the water. Ending the day with a splash
  • This place is a gem! White pebble beach with extremely clear water, swimming or diving or walking on rocks, it's a perfect place to enjoy the seaside without the crowd. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The lifeguard Aniss took it to the next level. I can't swim but I'd love to swim and I told him about it before entering the sea. He was constantly checking to ensure my safety. Eventually he offered me to hold on to his lifeboat to swim around. Because he is so kind hearted that he couldn't bear to see that all my friends were swimming and I was sitting alone on a rock. Aniss is not only a responsible lifeguard, but also a great person with a kind soul! I thank him wholeheartedly for the ride! He made my trip memorable for a lifetime...
  • Nice private beach with paid lounge chairs. Best if you can reserve in advance. Really nice location and environment if you want to be away from the hectic areas. Food is good and servers are cute :)
  • Beautiful beach – for people who do not know any beautiful beaches, have too much money and get rid of it without any sense or reason. The lounger in the first row costs 60 euros per day. Per person. Is it worth it? Rather not. For 60 € there is a lounger (which is comfortable), an umbrella and a towel. That was it. The staff is courteous and very friendly, but in no way justifies the price. Oh, almost forgotten. The train runs directly above the beach (and your head).
  • One of my favourite restaurant experience in the world! Not that many option for vegetarians/vegans though…but a wonderful and unique experience! The setting is sublime/romantic and great fun to hop in the ocean for a night swim after your meal. Go on a night when Francis is singing and you won’t regret it! Love it here !!
