Tenuta del Poggio Antico

Tenuta was a beautiful hotel to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet for a few days in the middle of a busy month long vacation. The staff was so friendly yet very professional. They offer full services except dinner but there are three nice restaurants within walking distance. We hope to go back someday.

The hotel, beautifully situated with spectacular views, has the best service of the many hotels we have experienced, beginning with the shuttle service that picked us up from the ferry, took us down into Forio for dinner and back, and brought our baggage down on our last day after we decided to walk down for a final lunch at the wonderful Forio restaurant; Core a Core, recommended by hotel boss, Francesco, before catching the ferry home. All part of the service. Breakfast offered more than usual in Italian hotels, again served very attentively. The hotel has no restaurant but does offer basic lunch. The good wine list inspired us to visit the local D'Ambra winery, a lovely walk with spectacular views with vineyards on both sides of the narrow road. (A certain will to adventure is needed to walk the roads on the hill!) The pool landscape has plenty of space for all guests. Two restaurants for dinner are nearby. one with top quality food (Montecorvo) and one with basic food but fabulous sunset views(Bella Vista) - but we had the sunset from our balcony too. Claudia is a good masseuse with a wide repertoire of health and beauty treatments. Excursions to the La Mortella Gardens and the Castello Aragonese were easy with a walk down the hill to the frequent busses. (We could have also taken the shuttle down the hill...). Our room and balcony on the 2nd floor were comfortable. Most highly recommended. We shall return!

We stayed here in the beginning of Sept , the owners family and the team they have are delightful , the location is perfect and close to beautiful beaches and the local town , there are tennis courts nearby and the thermal springs ... wonderful Italian food and Dolca Vita charm all around . hire a boat to go around teh island . Franco was the best ! Thank you

An absolutely fabulously done hotel with great service. The sunsets are among the most stunning I’ve seen from my hotel room balcony. Everyone at this hotel is friendly and goes out of there way to help you. They consistently give cheap/free short shuttle rides to help guests get around town. The restaurants within walking distance of the restaurant were really nice too. My wife and I will come back and maybe with additional family or friends next time. Special thank you to andree(?) who helped us with all kinds of things around the hotel and area.

We LOVED this hotel!!! Truly spectacular up in the hills of Forio with breathtaking views - sunsets especially were so beautiful. Everyone at the hotel provided exceptional service - always willing and ready to either make you a cocktail or take you in the shuttle wherever you wanted to go. Being high up in the hills provided a thrilling ride on the narrow winding road that was so exciting and nail biting each time, but also hilarious as the drivers always managed to make it through unscathed and flawlessly like it was a movie scene. We had a double room with a sea view and it was amazing with the large terrace overlooking Spiaggia di Citara. The breakfast as well was vast and varied with many homemade offerings. I still dream about their homemade lemon jam and fresh squeezed juices. We'd spend our days at nearby Poseidon and then retreat to the hotel in the evenings to soak in the sunset or take a late afternoon dip in the pool. We ate at Da Peppina (a 10-minute walk down the hill) and its as one of the best meals we had in Ischia. We will definitely return to this wonderful hotel. Thank you to everyone at the hotel who made our stay so memorable and special. It will always remain a treasured experience for us - especially as we stayed here the week before we got married in Ischia. 💕

We had such a lovely time here! We stayed for 12 nights. All the staff were very pleasant and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble, from booking concert tickets to suggesting restaurants and other things to do. We had a few lazy days in the hotel and by the pool and felt very well looked after. Breakfasts are excellent and although the hotel doesn't serve dinner, we enjoyed a few good lunches there and had no problem finding an abundance of choices for dinner (three good restaurants within a short walk as well as those in Forio centre). The courtesy car, which can easily be booked for trips to a few nearby places, was very welcome, as the very narrow roads are quite daunting. The hotel also has a good relationship with a local taxi driver, who was on hand for slightly longer trips at a decent price. All in all a lovely holiday, and we would be very happy to return.
