Summary of reviews related to the 'Beach' categoryNestled in a picturesque location, Punta San Martino provides an enticing option for beach lovers with its proximity to the shoreline. The hotel boasts direct access to a charming and beautiful small beach, often described as clean and not overly crowded. Guests particularly appreciate the convenience of an elevator that swiftly transports them down to the beachfront, avoiding the need for a trek.
The funicular access, available at no extra charge, is another highlight that facilitates easy connectivity between the hotel and the beach, as well as to the nearby promenade. However, it is worth noting that some guests have encountered issues with the operational status of these facilities.
Despite its charm, the beach does have a few drawbacks. It’s described as rocky and unfortunately, maintenance seems to be lacking with some areas needing renovation. There have been concerns about the availability and costs of amenities such as sunbeds and umbrellas, which are reserved for other guests or come at an additional charge of 35 euros per day. This perceived high cost can be a point of contention.
While the private beach offers a serene escape, access is sometimes restricted due to crowding or must be reserved in advance. The limited number of available sunbeds exacerbates this issue. Moreover, some visitors have found the overall service at the beach lacking, particularly if they don’t speak the local language.
Though the beach experience at Punta San Martino has its mix of highs and lows, the stunning views and convenient access through dedicated facilities make it a noteworthy consideration for those planning a coastal retreat.
