La Dolce Vita Residence

there was not much good things to say about this place.

the images on booking.com is very misleading, there is no services, the jacuzzie was not tuned on, the access to the private beach was locked, there is no parking, it is very isolated from town, and there are too many stairs to climb. it was not worth staying at this place.

We were in room number 2, down 137 stairs and only the view to a building site. However the room was nice and clean even though the a/c didn't work.

The hotel did not meet our needs. But a fabulous location - especially if you get a room much higher up than we did. Everything is chaotic and charming at the same time ! We would however never go there again

Good privacy and nice big rooftop with jacuzzi. Walk to a nice small beach below, which was a relief from the main beaches. Air conditioning was handy.

No staff onsite or phone available to speak to someone in case of a problem - we had to walk for a kilometre down into the town to talk to someone about the air conditioning that wasn't working, only to be told that you had to close all of the doors and windows (including the interior bathroom door) to get the a/c to even turn on. They should have told us this at check in if the instructions were so specific. Cheap furnishings and very badly stocked kitchen (no basics such as chopping board, sharp knives of any kind, dishwashing liquid or cloths, teatowels, wooden spoons, kettle etc). We found this absurd considering the description. How are we to keep the kitchen clean if we don't even have something to wash up with?

Though at some distance of Maiori (10 minutes walking), which has its drawbacks, a very nice location. Especially at the end of a long walking day in the splendid environment, relaxing in the jacuzzi on the roof with a beautifull view over the sea is really worth a stay.

Check in can only be done during office hours (10-13, 16-19), which was not indicated. Indicated was between 14-16. The check-in address is in Maiori, at the office next to the Regina hotel (Corsa Regina 6): also this address was not indicated on the reservation, with some back and forth walking to the appartment as result.
