The definition of a hotel is: an establishment providing accommodation, meals, and other services for travellers and tourists. This place goes beyond that- it may not be the most glamorous, amenity filled hotel however I must say, their hospitality has amazed me beyond many other 5 star international hotels that I have slept in. The amicability and sweetness of the staff was mind-blowing. Whoever has spoken badly of their service, you are beyond spoiled as I have yet to receive better treatment and I’m not sleeping at 4 star hotels. I reserved a family room and got upgraded to a two bedroom. I asked for a late checkout and was granted a “check out whenever you’d like” hour. This, already goes beyond any hotel experience I have had in the last 5 years. I regret to say that I did not ask the man with glasses at the reception for his name and yet seem to know his dogs name is Leo, he was incredibly polite and an amazing host, to you, I apologize for not learning your name but I will never forget your face , kindness and sense of hospitality. The grounds are beautiful, the pool is great (although unfortunately we did not use it as it was raining). Lastly, the food was amazing and the service staff was fantastic. For those reading the reviews regarding the price, this place is definitely not expensive, for those who think it is, it is because they do not realize they are in forte dei marmi (€24 for a main dish is not expensive at all). Prices are more than fair according to location. Thank you to all the team at @hotelcaliforniaparkhotel! You have earned our loyalty in Forte dei Marmi! 🙏🏼

nothing bad to say

most incredible stay! the staff were UNREAL. we’ve never felt so welcomed and accommodated. we will definitely be back.

We love everything about this hotel. From the interior design to the kindness of the staff, everything is perfect!

luxurious comfort, modern, warm and welcoming

Nothing

The staff were excellent . Breakfast very good. Evening meal good but a little pricey. Location good for beach- slightly longer walk into town than we envisaged . overall setting very good and pool area lovely.

Beautiful interior decoration / relaxing atmosphere in a beautiful garden / calm pool area / super friendly staff / bike rental => in short, an AMAZING place to spend vacation time

Breakfast could have had more options but what was there was delicious

Nice garden

little bit outdated

Very clean, comfortabel and nice staff. Nothing was missing!!!! Great garden and pool area

All great; nothing negative to report.

The cozy atmosphere, the beautiful decor and the friendly staff

I have only one small comment! That the towels and dressing gowns were a bit old and dis-coloured. For such a hotel I would have expected a higher quality.

Staff is great and friendly, helpfull. Location OK, but value for money is not OK. Too expensive for the value you get. you have tp pay €5 for a baked egg during (included) breakfast, and €5 for a glass of orange juice !

The property gave us a feeling that we could have been on island like the Bahamas. It was cosy, warm and clean if you entered a warm bath. Beautiful gardens, lovely pool and so well decorated and a great use of colours.
