Villa Favorita Relais

We stayed here 3 nights on an organised tour. Loved our room, it was one in the courtyard along the corridor on the left and hence had our own terrace. The breakfast spread was excellent, with fresh fruit and of course cannoli. What let this place down was the main course in the evening. There wasn???t a choice, maybe because we were part of a tour, and either potato or veg but not the two together. The pasta corse was plentiful so fill yourself up on that. Staff were great and the pool area beautiful. Would recommend this hotel especially if you like cats as there are several hereinteresting surrounds within the comple

Stayed for 3 nights as part of a tour group . Our tour company had requested a walk in shower room & this was allocated , so a very good start . The buildings are beautiful, it really is a lovely setting . Our room was fine with wardrobe space and a couple of counter tops . The safe was not a great size , no use for an iPad ,so really only passports & money . Our bathroom was ok but there wasn???t shelves to put anything, although there was a tray in the shower . This had a curtain but it did the job of keeping the floor dry . We both found the bed far too hard as we are used to memory foam at home . We struggled with the pillows as prefer something softer . We had a small courtyard with a table & a couple of lounger type chairs. It would have been very hot to sit here as it was totally enclosed. The gardens were lovely with loads of seating , comfy sofas , tables & chairs for breakfast & dinner . Lots of sunloungers around the pool too . Towels were collected from reception with no charge. The pool was fabulous, really a great size & very easy entry with a staircase , no rails but I managed . Breakfast was laid out in a beautiful room on a huge table , with smaller tables for drinks . A lovely selection of fruits, juices , cereals, dairy, pastries, cold cuts , cheese selections, salad / vegetables, breads & I think some hot items also . I fell in love with the dark chocolate tart & the ricotta one was delicious too . We ate dinner here as a group twice . There was a pasta dish , a main dish & a dessert. Personally I would have preferred a choice although the food was tasty , it would not have been choices we would have made from a menu . Our tour company did tell us we would have a set menu though. Water wasn???t provided at dinner , although other hotels on our tour did provide this . Wine & drinks were a reasonable price for a hotel , especially as it was far from the local town . You would need a car to stay here . The setting was lovely & we were sorry to leave , we would certainly recommend this as as great place to stay . Maybe as independent travellers you would have better dinner choices but I never did see a menu .
