I’m conflicted, I want to say bad things to keep people from uncovering this stunning hotel and location but I really couldn’t do that as the people running Poggio Antico are some of the nicest I’ve met when travelling.
The views are breathtaking, the pool is peaceful and perfectly sized, the rooms are beautiful and immaculately clean (well, the suite we stayed in was)- my wife and I passed comment on how quiet it was at night, I can’t remember anything quite like it.
The breakfast offering is exquisite also, everything is fresh and well maintained, the views whilst eating and enhanced by the soothing ambient music, great free shuttle taking you to nearby locations, and lastly the staff (every one of them) seem to love working at Poggio Antico and it shines through when you interact with them, they couldn’t be better
If you’re deciding on somewhere to stay in Ischia, I implore you to stop here and book... we will likely be back in the near future.
Special mention to the restaurant directly adjacent to Poggio Antico, ‘Bellavista’... we ate here twice and will again when we next visit. The owner is charming and a lovely man, the views are spectacular and the food fantastic.
