Hotel Continental Mare

The check-in process was quick and welcoming, and the complimentary gifts for special occasions were a sweet touch. Our room was conveniently located near the common areas, but being on the ground floor, it was damp and had noticeable odors coming from the kitchen. Beach towels, however, are not included and come at an extra cost. On the day of check-out, there is a €30 fee per person to continue using the facilities after 11:00 AM. Lunch offerings were below the island average. The beach isn’t too far, but there aren’t enough sun loungers or space, and no umbrellas are provided. On the day of departure, we were offered a taxi to the ferry port, but it turned out not to be a licensed taxi and charged us €20. Be prepared if you would like to enjoy the hotel after 11:00 AM to pay extra total 80 Euro including transfer.

Wonderful stay at this lovely hotel- all of the staff are professional, helpful and friendly- the room views over mediterranean- breathtaking- food excellent- breakfast on patio lovely- dinner choices varied- pool and rest areas, lovely--wonderful small hotel- we will return--lots of hills and steps- not for those who are infirm- but we were fairly healthy 75 year old couple and no problems

Il posto ideale per riconciliarsi con se stessi e per coltivare l'intimità. Si è su un isola meravigliosa, veramente mediterranea, e in più si è a ridosso di un mare splendido...cosa puoi volere di più. Il personale è gentile con la naturalezza tipica italiana e il ristorante è di livello. Verde, pace e tranquillità dopo magari una serata divertente e movimentata alla "Riva destra"...che gioia. Ricercatezza nei particolari e blu marino che ti assale da ogni scorcio. Questo e molto altro ho goduto in questo mio luogo dell'anima.

We have just spent a week at this sensational hotel. The photographs don't do it justice. Everything is perfect from the reception, restaurant, outside areas, bedrooms and pools. As for the view from the restaurant . Magnificent. The staff are all wonderful. So professional and very well dressed. Friendly and very helpful. I am not going to mention names. Or I am bound to leave someone out. Everything is so tastefully done. From the hand painted floral tiles to the beautiful lounge area, all decked out in yellow.. I was impressed with the restaurant, glass tables with sea themed condiment sets. Beautiful orchids on every table. Even see through chairs. So nothing blocked the magnificent view. As for the food. Amazing dinners every night. Always beautifully presented. My compliments to the chefs. Would I go back there? You betcha, tomorrow if I could. It is in a very peaceful setting. There is even a short cut down to the town . A bit steep for part of the way back. I just about managed it with the help of the handrail. ((I wish I was 43 instead of 73. ) The bedroom was spotless. Lovely clean towels every day. Everything so fresh and inviting. Plenty of hot water for a shower. We had a lovely ground floor room , with a terrace. It overlooked the very well kept gardens, and had a wonderful sea view. Now if you think I am going on a bit, I really don't mind. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Loved it. Any negatives? Not at all. But for me, I would have preferred dinner earlier than 7.30. But I know from being within an Italian family, they do eat later than us Brits. Just go there and see for yourselves. You will not be disappointed.

Overall pretty average for the price - very nice property but food was below average and over priced. People were helpful. The shuttle is helpful that takes you to the port. A storm damaged the ocean sun deck which had it out of action. Low light was being charged 203 euro for laundry - although this was my fault for not checking prices it was pretty jarring to be charged 4 euro per sock…. Highlight was the views and the ocean sun deck pre storm

My daughter and I had a wonderful 6 days at Continental Mare. Our room was upgraded (thank you very, very much!) and the staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were very good, with great gluten-free options. The shuttle to town was very helpful and the short-cut walking path to town gave us a bit of exercise, but was easier than I expected. No negatives at all - our stay was excellent.
