Could have been so much better! The room was basic but what we expected and full of lovely character with wooden beams. We stayed 10 nights. It was very clean and in good repair. The setting was wonderful and only a short walk to a fab beach. We were upgraded but I hate to think how small and basic the... More

We has 10 days in the hotel, it was a really good base, but I would say if you want to do anything but lie next to the stunning pool, eat in the great value restaurant and chill in the hotel bar, you really need a car. There are beautiful beaches within easy access with good, free, parking. There cafes... More

We eat here and really enjoyed it. We thought the food was good and fairly reasonable. This restaurant looked like one of the better ones in the area as the others were the standard sea-side food. We enjoyed the oportunity of dressing up for dinner after spending 2 weeks on the beach. The disused water flumes are a bit spooky... More

The hotel is rustic and quaint as befits its former history as a monastery. The Reception staff were friendly helpful and polite but the same cannot be said for the Restaurant Manageress Breakfast has already been described in a previous review so I was aware of what to expect before my visit. Extras such as toast bacon & egg were... More

When checking in you are requested to pay for the all stay in advance. Never seen that before! The hotel is in the middle of nowhere. The beach is almost 700 meter far away, not 300 meters as mention in the website. Our room was old monastery style, but it was poorly lit and not clean enough. At our arrival... More

The hotel felt like it was trying to squeeze every single cent out of its guests. The staff was terrible, rude, and not the least bit helpful. Compared to all other hotels we stayed at, this was by far the worst I can ever recall. It felt more of a hassle and struggle to do anything at the hotel. Definitely... More

Il Monastero is an unusual, oddly-styled but fun stay - if you can put up with some of its more quirky aspects. Minus points: • It's off the beaten track - a car is recommended although there is a good bus service, but the timetable is restrictive • Rooms are minimalist (one small window and no "views") but fully air...

Arrived at this fairly remote hotel quite late in the evening and was greeted with a polite request to have something to eat with an assertive 'no'! Thankfully this was reversed by the ever smiley and resourceful manageress, Donatella. The next few days were calm, relaxed and comfortable. Breakfast was basic but the lunches and dinners were of a very... More

The hotel is part of an old gesuit monastery. It's a simple decent place with a very efficient and helpfull reception. The place is quite far from the action, the beautiful beaches of Villasimius are 30 mins drive away. You need to be on the car all the time if you need anything. Breakfast is inconsistent and very minimal. The... More
