Our second time staying here after 8 years and it was as beautiful as we remembered. The house is very spacious, the garden has beautiful views, and there is a great restaurant in walking distance. Definitely recommend having a car or a scooter to get around to go to the beaches, but there is also a bus station close by! We will be back.

Good house

Pros: 1) Spectacular view, visible from 3 terraces. (Situated right beneath mount Epomeo -Wide view of the bay, Casamicciola and Lacco ameno.) 2) Feels very private, silent at night, and surrounded by greenery, small private drive down from a main road. 3) Clean, large, spacious. 4 double bedrooms. Two bathrooms, one shower, one bath. Spacious enough for each person to have their own privacy within their room -not disturbed by the movements/noise of ones fellow guests. 4) Good poetic, charming atmosphere. 5) Appliances worked mostly fine. Hot water for 5 people bath/shower all day. Working dishwasher/washing machine. Cons:1) No air conditioning. However in each room either ceiling fan or free standing fan. It was more or less 28-30 degrees (mid September) Gianni collected me from port-(Casamicciola Terme-Arrive at either of the three ports -doesn’t really matter-the island is small 7km X 10km) V.friendly-straight to supermarket where he helped me with first big shop. Enjoyed convo in Italian. 'A casa' he explained everything to me- "Any problems, I will be here in 15 mins, I am at your disposal" G. was always available via phone during our stay. The house is situated on a very steep hill = No point without car. Grocery store=30 min walk down precipitous slope. Too much to see on the island to just stay put. Gianni offered to organise our car hire, but we chose to hire one from a company in ischia Porto - some members of our party were anxious to pay for extra insurance. Despite living in another part of the island, Gianni managed to materialise with miraculous swiftness on his moped at the drop of a hat. Appeared Instantly with plumber in toe to resolve a plumbing problem. We caused a power cut by using too many appliances simultaneously (common In Italy)- hair dryer, oven, dishwasher, washing machine at the same time. At 9pm however Gianni appeared to resolve problem. House felt very safe. (Ischia less crime than Naples) Ample garden-beautiful view, pretty sun-loungers, lawn, greenery/flowers. Attractive terrace/colonnade where we gathered frequently. Bring mosquito repellent- we got bitten muchos. Kitchen- attractive/ functional, cooked several meals. Tap water not drinkable. G. was v. gracious when we left, and dealt with our considerable trash. G. helped organise boat hire. Motored all around the island from Forio. By far best thing we did. Best way to see island. swim in private, inaccessible beaches-saint angelo.Grazie, Arriverderci Gianni.
