Sunset House

Everything was perfect! I read the reviews of this place before booking, and thought that they must be exaggerating, but no. The host, the place, the views, the sunset, the beach, the breakfast, absolutely everything was lovely! We have never felt so welcome anywhere and the host Louisa was ready to do anything and everything for us. She and her team are all so incredibly nice! The breakfast was really versatile and made fresh, the beach was so clean and quiet and you could borrow sunbeds for free. The steps down to the beach are quite steep, so tread carefully. The sunsets were breathtaking, both from the outdoor area of Sunset House and on the beach! We felt safe everywhere, no problem walking out late at night and no problem leaving our stuff on the beach when swimming. We walked to Anzio for dinner, it was about 2 km and nice views also along the way (although Louisa was also ready to drive us there). Anzio Colonia station is a couple of blocks away and there was a small shop about 5 mins walk away where you could buy water, beer, wine, snacks and fresh pizza slices. We loved absolutely everything and can't wait to be back!

I could mention that the water in the shower was sometimes cold and the wi-fi was sometimes unpredictable, but these were such minor inconveniences that they made no difference whatsoever. We loved everything anyway!

Sunset House is an absolute gem, and the host, Louisa, really makes it shine. The indoor common area, as well as the outdoor terrace, are beautiful and expansive, with plenty of room to hang out and relax. Louisa and her staff are always available, waiting at your every beck and call. Just amazing. The house is located on a cliff overlooking the sea. The views are incredible. There are steps leading down to a semi-private slice of beach. Louisa provides lounge chairs and umbrellas. There’s just no reason to go into the main area of Anzio to fight the crowds on the beach and pay for amenities. The room itself is spacious. We don’t typically care for firm European mattresses, but, for some reason, found this one to be quite comfortable. My hips didn’t even hurt, and they are riddled with tendonitis and bursitis. We slept great. Breakfast is beautiful. Yogurt, fresh fruit, cereals, meats, pastries and eggs. And fantastic coffee, made to order. All served on the lovely terrace. So good. For dinner, there are lots of restaurants nearby to choose from. We simply got take away pizza two nights in a row and brought it back to enjoy on the terrace. And why not? The view at sunset is as good or better than any restaurant could provide. And the pizza was fantastic. 4 huge slices of pizza, 2 croquettes and a bottle of wine for 13€. Can’t beat that. We loved it here and can’t wait to return

If I absolutely had to complain about something, I’d say the shower door is a little wonky. That’s it. That’s all I got

Nulla

It was clean

List of issues 1. Broken toilet lid — uncomfortable and unsafe to use. 2. Long wait for hot water — hot water exists, but it took several minutes of running the tap before it appeared. This made it impossible to use the sink or shower comfortably. 3. Missing advertised amenities — the hotel website stated that the room had a kettle and a coffee maker. In reality, neither was present. 4. Breakfast on June 11 (Thursday) did not match the description — breakfast consisted only of baked goods, coffee, and two fried eggs. Cold meats and fruits, which were listed on the website as part of the breakfast, were completely missing. 5. Noise from construction — there was loud construction work next to the hotel. No information about this was provided on the hotel's page at the time of booking. 6. Presence of a dog in the breakfast area — there was a dog constantly present in the hotel. The dog stayed in the same room where breakfast was served and where food was kept. We were not informed about this in advance. Having a dog in the dining area is unhygienic and causes discomfort for guests who do not wish to be near animals while eating. 7. Unknown connecting door without a key — there was a closed door in the room leading to an unknown space. We did not have a key to this door, we did not know where it led, or whether it could be opened from the other side. The hotel management did not warn us about this door or explain its purpose. This caused reasonable anxiety about safety and privacy. 8. Unstable Wi-Fi — the internet connection was constantly dropping. 9. Few shops and restaurants within walking distance — the actual infrastructure did not match the expectations created by the location description.
