habitaciones en alojamientos particulares en Furnari

Beach The beach is always busy in the mornings. Much Quieter in the afternoons as I think lots have long lunches / siestas. The sea is clear and the perfect Luke warm temperature to cool off. Each room is allocated two sun beds and one umbrella. (That was between 4 of us). The same ones for the duration of the stay. There are some sea kayaks and paddle boards you can use early morning or late afternoon. Pool There’s one large deep main pool and two shallow kids pools. But you must wear a swimming cap (unless you’re bald!). The pool is mostly very quiet. Afternoons are busier. Maybe the sea is the preferred option being so lovely and cooler there. Food The food is generally very good. Always hot options but mostly cold options including seasonal vegetables, aubergine, courgette, etc A lot of seafood but always some meat too. An abundance of choice. There is also the Grill restaurant which is also buffet style but with the addition of the pizza oven. Alcoholic drinks aren’t included here but some lovely local wines are on the list. Drinks I have never seen so much single use plastic ever! And it’s also actively encouraged. The amount of plastic waste from that hotel must be phenomenal. I’m shocked this still happens. But it’s apparently quite normal in Italy. At the beach you can get a drink in a small plastic cup or a paper cup that holds about 100ml only. So it’s little and often and yet more waste. In the buffet, at meal times, soft drinks are limitless. But you must only fill the glass jugs. You are not allowed to fill up your water bottles. How strange. We asked at the bar to fill our water bottle. It wasn’t allowed. It had to be done with a small cup one at a time! Why?! At the bar there’s a list of drinks included and titled “for the foreign market”! The wrist bands, all residents wear, indicate if you’re all inclusive or in a soft drinks package. We paid for all inclusive but all our drinks (alcoholic or not) were in the small plastic cups. We weren’t allowed any drinks in glasses (as others did!) Consistently environmentally unfriendly. Bravo animation There seems to be a lot of entertainment and games on offer. They were very popular at the beach with the Italian families. But we weren’t encouraged to join in at all. I think I we were the only foreigners there, surrounded by Italians. I think my son and husband would’ve enjoyed the beach tennis or volleyball but we felt the animation team avoided us. We went to a show one evening but it was all in Italian so we left as pointless for us. Accommodation Our suite was quite spacious for our family. One double room and the main room with twin beds. One bathroom with a small shower. The hairdryer attached to the wall was smoking so we had to borrow from reception. Better to bring your own. In summary it’s probably a good hotel to stay at IF you’re Italian. We were misled by BA, that we booked through, that it was what we wanted. There were some friendly staff we encountered:
