Einfach spektakulär!
Pros:

Eine atemberaubende Aussicht! Die Zimmer sind wunderschön renoviert, bemüht trotz moderner Ausstattung alte Substanz zu integrieren und erhalten.
Man bekommt vom Management eine Führung, kann den Leuchtturm hautnah erleben mit geschichtlichem Hintergrund.
Man hat uns unkompliziert Taxi und Scooter organisiert, mit dem wir in 2 Tagen auch die Insel erkunden konnten.

Cons:

Wir haben auf Empfehlung in einem Magazin diesen wunderschönen Ort gefunden und über booking gebucht. Was leider vorab in den Informationen untergeht, ist die doch anspruchsvolle Anreise über eine enge Straße, dann ein Abstieg (und natürlich auch wieder Aufstieg) über 10 Minuten Fußweg, die Koffer müssen über eine ZIP-Line hinuntergebracht werden. Dazu muss man sie aber erst in den dafür vorgesehenen Korb hinauf hieven. Wenn man den Aufenthalt als Teil eines längeren Urlaubs geplant hat, mit entsprechendem Gepäck, ist das schon eine Herausforderung…für die man dann aber auch belohnt wird, wenn es gelingt, sich nach der ersten Überraschung auch einzulassen ;) !

Pros:

Spitzen Küche, freundliches Personal, Ruhe und Ausblick am Pool, beim Frühstück und auf der Dachterrasse und das angenehm klimatisierte schöne Zimmer!!!

Cons:

In der Beschreibung bei Booking sollte besser die Anfahrt beschrieben werden und nicht erst vier Stunden vorher per Mail, wenn man schon mit eingeklappten Spiegeln die steile und extrem enge Straße hochfährt!

Unique experience
Pros:

The location is spectacular, peaceful and the hotel, which is a working lighthouse, is unique. The rooms are lovely.The staff is keen to please. Look out for Franco the resident seagull.

Cons:

Read the instructions you will be sent before you arrive (unlike us!). You can easily get a taxi from Forio ferry port to the hotel (or the other ports on the island, but they are further away) but there are 160 steps to get down to the hotel from where the road gives out. There is a luggage lift, so be sure to telephone reception in advance to get someone to meet you and operate this for you. The buses around the island are cheap and frequent, but the walk to the bus stop is 2.2 km. We liked the challenge, but you need either to be reasonably fit or hire a car/scooter/electric bike. The Forio bar half way is a good watering hole.

Lack of quiet ie noisy bad discomusic hours at a time in hallways and outside...astonishingly against advertised quiet and peace....then total beautiful hours of silence...as meant...exhilarating heavrnly days

Pros:

Stunning location! An exceptional hotel. The room was serene, thoughtful, beautiful and comfortable. The breakfast spread was phenomenal. Fabio and Antonio were attentive, professional, amiable, and masters of their trade. March was perfectly quiet being the off season, a dream. Can’t wait to return!

Incredibly unique and equally fantastic experience, unlike any other!
Pros:

The staff were incredibly attentive and personable. The kitchen produced fantastic meals and the setting is absolutley amazing. Some incredible sunsets to be seen here!

Cons:

Access is a little tricky. I'd caution against booking if you struggle with hill climbs. The nearest bus stop is 20-25min walk up and then down a very large hill. If you have heavy luggage it's tricky. A pre-booked taxi is the safest bet. I can't fault the hotel itself - it is a lighthouse afterall, it's always going to be on a cliffside!

Secluded venue with the best rabbit you will ever taste.
Pros:

The chef, Antonio. He made the trip for us. Location stunning. Very peaceful.

Cons:

It might not be to everybody’s taste but the walk in and out of the hotel up the cliffs is quite difficult.

Just incredible
Pros:

Just perfect: the place , the food, the service , the room , …and that feeling to have reached the end of the world. Most probably one of the best hotel I’ve ever been . One tiny warning: be prepared for the stairs to reach the place .

The most special experience.
Pros:

The staff are incredible (Fabio made our stay exceptional and gave us a lot of suggestions, booked an experience for us, and made sure we were taken care of every day). The place itself is also just unbelievably gorgeous and special.

The breakfast is amazing, dinner is even better, and sitting on the rooftop for a drink is very spectacular. Staying here was so special and comfortable, and we really enjoyed the seclusion after being in busier parts of Italy.

Ask Fabio for the tiny taxi number (and book pickup times with them and bring cash). They are the nicest people and I’m so grateful that they took us around so much to experience Ischia, as our time there was limited (I recommend staying for 3+ days!).

Cons:

If I could go back in time, I would spend a bit more and book a room with a view (we chose the more affordable option). The room was still amazing, so comfy, and so clean, but it would be special to wake up to a view of the ocean. If you can swing it, definitely upgrade, especially if you’re only spending a couple days on the property. But just to be clear, our room was still amazing and we felt like it was true luxury!

Exceptional
Pros:

Immaculately restored lighthouse with minimalist but chic interior. Its exceptionally remote, quiet and views are some of the best on the island, and the food and service was truly a 5 star experience.

Cons:

Although the entire experience was exceptional, I think they could add some additional greenery (olive trees or rosemary bushes maybe?) at the front of the hotel
