Grand Hotel Il Moresco

Tutto perfetto come sempre!

Absolutely wonderful stay at Hotel Moresco.. staff were all fantastic.. breakfast every morning was delightful.. eaten on the patio overlooking beautiful gardens surrounding the pool area, lovely breakfast, including fruit, cheeses, meats, breads & cakes, eggs including omlettes cooked fresh to order.. Waiting staff were absolutely lovely as were all staff at the hotel. I could not fault the hotel and will definitely be returning. Location was also perfect, quiet area but 5 mins up the road were restaurants & shops, 20 minute walk to the old town in one direction and 20 minute walk in the other direction to the harbour, so many restaurants in both directions. Every meal we had was wonderful. No beach as such, but private decking area at the bottom of the road overlooking the sea. Hotel & the island were perfection 🇮🇹❤️

We booked a 7 night stay at the Il Moresco, through Tui in the UK, a truly 5 star hotel. The design and furnishings are classic Italian and it’s spotless throughout the hotel and beautiful landscaped gardens. We stayed half board in a comfort room with a side view of the sea. Waiter service is not only at dinner but also at breakfast. There are many options for each of the four course dinner. An amuse-bouche was served, followed by self-serve at the salad bar. The first course and second were served by a waiter and a small selection of biscuits were served before a self-serve at the deserts on offer or cheese board. To be honest the helpings are very big and we felt guilty leaving what we could not eat. We soon discovered we could ask for smaller portions or skip the first course. As I have special dietary requirements, the Restaurant Manager, Francesco was very helpful and the chef made special preparations for me. All waiters were very good, but special mention must be made of Loretta. The reception staff are extremely helpful and Anna in particular helped us obtain further information regarding a pre-booked trip through Tui. Mickey at the pool was so helpful and attentive. The large outdoor spa water pool is 26 degrees and the grotto 30 degrees, being fed via two water spouts. The hotel beach (free loungers and towels) was well attended on the raised decking, with a bar that served drinks and snacks. You can reach the water via a ladder and it’s very shallow. A nearby public beach of Spiaggia di San Pietro can be reached if you walk through the nearby public park. The harbour/port and the castle are equi-distance from the hotel in either direction and there are many shops and cafes/restaurants nearby. I would wholeheartedly recommend this hotel for rest, sophistication and relaxation. Frequented by multi nations but particularly the Italians, which is a good recommendation.
