Hotel Da Maria

Management is not on site. They were unable to check us in late and we arrived with no place to stay.

Stayed here for a spell of hot weather this past summer, and liked it enough that I'm planning to go back next summer. Room was very clean and comfortable, staff were helpful and courteous, and the beach was lovely. Regarding the beach, in particular I was happy with how relatively private it was, as well as how well marked off the boat lane was. I've stayed in other places where the swimming area's cheek by jowl with the boat area but the separation wasn't well-marked, so I am glad it was so well-marked here. The only downsides were that the bathroom, curiously, wasn't air conditioned, and the breakfast, which was fairly scant. In fact, everything else was so good I felt let-down by the breakfast; ended up eating a lot of toast in order to fill myself up, and on the third day I just flat-out bought bread in the nearby town so I'd have something more filling to eat in the morning. Otherwise, I was entirely happy with my stay.

Hotel Da Maria is beautifully located with its own private beach and restaurant. The staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms are well specified with an excellent shower and air con. Cleaning staff do a great job maintaining the rooms and hotel. Clean towels are provided everyday. Their is a small swimming pool with loungers, a large patio area with tables,chairs and sun loungers or residents can walk down a flight of steps to the beach. For some the steps may be the deal breaker. For anyone with difficulty walking or climbing they might be a challenge as the property is a tiered structure built on the hillside. Also travel to and from the local town of Ischia Ponte is by small boat or water taxi as it is referred to. It is a well organised and efficient service and i found it a charming and enjoyable experience but again those afraid of water or unsteady on their feet it may prove another deal breaker Food is excellent in the restaurant.....would i recommend, yes would i return, again yes

Da Maria is a lovely hotel, set right on the sea. Accessible by water taxi (or a slog over the hill) and with lovely views over the bay and the Aragona Castle. Room was a sea-view double aspect, with a balcony; shutters and insect screen on the french doors. Breakfast was usual - bread, jams, cereals, yoghurts, cheese/hams, juices and coffee. Restaurant was ok, food generic Italian, wine cheap but local and good. Prices seem to alter according to who served you!

Very clean with lovely staff. Room ok. Good breakfast. Little bit too much off the beaten track for us.

We attended for a week and had an amazing time. The hotel was spotlessly clean, staff were very attentive and friendly.. even though not everyone spoke English and we did not speak much Italian, it was not an issue, we got by and it worked well. Food in the restaurant was delicious and would recommend. The beach was busy but that was only to be expected for the location. Yes there are stairs but that adds to the charm of the location. Loved this place

Gorgeous views, clean rooms, private beach, delicious food at their restaurant, quiet and relaxing. Staff is hardworking, helpful and wonderful. Truly enjoyed our stay.

We had a very enjoyable stay in Albergo da Maria. Loved the location on the beach and hearing the waves lapping at night. The hotel restaurant served delicious home cooked meals and it was easy to take the water taxi to Ischia Ponte for a good variety of cafes and restaurants. Service at the hotel was excellent. The only drawbacks to a comfortable stay were the lack of air-conditioning and the toilet being in the shower enclosure. Regardless of this we would love to return.

Was a highlight of our Italy trip. Was mostly Italians holidaying there unlike Capri with a personal feel to it. Lovely part of the world

Location is amazing. Service is poor. No help with luggage down the mountain. Only reason to stay is the location. NO AC.
