Reviews of Villa Alisea

Beautiful villa with fantastic host

November 2024 - The villa is always beautiful, with a breathtaking view to admire while immersed in the thermal pool of the house.

A natural sauna surrounded by a spectacular garden, a fully equipped kitchen, and a kind and caring welcome.

What can I say? Alessandra [the owner] is a fantastic host.

We will be back!

It felt like a dream! It was paradise!

October 2024 - Villa Alisea was an absolutely magnificent place to stay in Ischia. It felt like a dream! The pool and surrounding gardens overlooking the ocean were an absolute highlight.

Public transport was super close and easy to navigate. The bedrooms and bathrooms were super clean and comfortable and the caretakers were amazing. The kitchen was great and we were able to purchase fresh local produce and cook meals, there are also BBQ facilities on one of the beautiful garden terraces. I cannot rave enough about our stay. It was paradise!

Summer In Italy were a joy to deal with. The booking was a smooth process and questions were answered promptly. In addition, instructions for getting to the villa were easy to navigate and the host was very helpful in assisting us with our journey from Forio Port to the villa. I have only good things to say about Summer In Italy and our hosts in Ischia. If I could rate the property and hosts 20 out of 10, I would! Thank you to Summer In Italy for making our dreams come true!

Travel tips

Beautiful setting and helpful host

September 2024 - The setting is absolutely beautiful - amazing sunsets and the sound of the ocean at night.

The pool and sauna really made the stay.

Alessandra [the owner] was super helpful and friendly, organising cabs from the port and suggesting places to visit and eat.

Forio is about 30 mins walk and there's a really lovely beach 10 mins away.

Will definitely be coming back!

Stunning views and pool, great for groups!

September 2024 - The pool and the sunsets!! The pool is heated by the thermal springs and is around 33 degrees 😃. Lots of banana lounges with comfy cushions.

Gardens are beautiful with lots of places to sit and enjoy the spectacular view. Loved opening my doors to the Mediterranean each morning.

Mini-mart, gelato, bus stop, and great restaurant right next to the property. Alessandra our host helpful with arrangements, and Tornike was great onsite looking after the pool and helping us as needed 😊.

We were a group of friends from Australia and UK and it was a perfect place for a reunion!

Amazing holiday home with great views

August 2024 - I don’t even know where to start. I’ve rented MANY bnbs over the last decade - in all parts of the world. This is an absolute gem!!! The host is amazing and gracious. The pool made the perfect area even better.

10 minute walk down to the beach - short bus ride back - or walk! I took my dad who is in his 70s. He just kept taking pictures of the house and the incredible views. 2 markets easy walk. Not a ton of stuff there but def what you need. Small cafe right on top of your walk up from house I had cappuccino and pastries both days.

If we stayed longer I would’ve taken bus back to Forio port - and spent some time there - super cool old feel and markets etc .. outside beach area there’s excellent gelato and some bars and cafes. I can’t say enough about the place, the value, and how great the host is.

I can’t wait to convince my sisters and or cousins to come back here. Or I’ll just do it myself if I must 😝 Five ⭐️ 🌟 ⭐️!!!!!!

Best stay with wonderful host

August 2024 - One of the best stays we’ve ever had! Our host was quick to respond to messages and was proactive with arranging taxi pick up for our large extended family of ten from the port.

The villa was spotless, had plenty of room, and the grounds, pool, and gardens were immaculate. Our family loved seeing Ischia but loved returning to the villa to swim and enjoy the beautiful views of the sea just as much!

The villa was in walking distance to a cluster of shopping, small grocery, restaurants, and tabaccheria which was helpful.

Long weekend in Ischia

August 2024 - A lovely place that entices you to stay, with a splendid view and plenty of space available, with the "voice" of the sea as background noise.

From the garden, to the pool, to the barbecue, to the large tables for dining or having breakfast together, even if there are many of us. Everything is kept in an excellent way.

A place that will remain in my heart, like the fantastic people who welcomed us.

Fantastic, relaxing and comfortable stay with plenty of space for our group of 8. Host and on-site staff were very help

July 2024 - Very private with lots of space and multiple outdoor areas for sitting/dining.

Private pool and surrounding area/garden was lovely.

Beautiful and comfortable villa

June 2024 - A beautiful villa, stunning views, great outdoor spaces. Very comfortable for 6 couples, plenty of privacy and a super location with lots to walk to.

It was very easy to book and coordinate with your team. Would not hesitate to use your services again! We loved meeting the owners, really nice people!

Travel tips

Exceptional customer service is our top priority.

November 2023 - Everything is superb: location, house, garden, pool, sauna, view.

The third stay at the villa was fantastic, we will definitely come back!

October 2023 - The villa and grounds are beautiful. Thanks to the thermal water, you can still enjoy the stunning sunsets over the sea in October with temperatures above 30°C.

The furnishings and villa may not be modern, but they are very lovingly and cozy. The many terraces and seating areas offer space for a large travel group, but also provide retreats.

We have been to the villa for the third time with 6 adults and 6 children (2-12 years) and will definitely come back!

Felt like being in a small paradise!

October 2023 - Yes, we very much enjoyed our stay and we felt like being in a small paradise!

We will definitively recommend this place to friends and other future guests. In fact, we already did!

Communication worked very well with Summer In Italy! The place (Villa Alisea) and your agency were both recommended us by friends.

Excellent

October 2023 - The accommodation, and especially the view, is amazing.

Wonderful holiday in a stunning property.

May 2023 - Beautiful property on a hillside with stunning views down to the beach. The views and sunsets are out of this world.

Well equipped, with a good-sized thermal pool and a barbecue, generous seating and tables everywhere, lots of dishes, large fridge. Lovely flowers and trees in the large garden.

The house is particularly suited to be shared by several parties - we were ten people, two families plus a grandmother - as each bedroom has its own bathroom, and the pairs of bedrooms are far enough apart for privacy.

There are adequate facilities (mini market, cafés, bus stop) nearby, and more shops can be reached by a short bus trip. The nice beach below - Citara Beach, which has some shops and restaurants - can be reached via a pretty footpath down the hill in about 10 minutes. The Poseidon Thermal Gardens are just behind the beach.

Care does have to be taken with small children as there are several unprotected areas, but our children - five aged between one and five - managed well with repeated warnings (the tiny tots have to be watched constantly anyway).

People with severe mobility issues might struggle with the short path up the hill to the street, but this is no problem for any reasonably fit person.

The hostess reacted very quickly to one problem we had and got it solved within a few hours, and on a Sunday, much appreciated. We all - adults and children alike - thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return any time.

Wonderful villa suitable for a large group vacation

November 2022 - Wonderful villa, very well integrated in the surrounding nature and in a magical position with a view over Punta Imperatore and Poseidon gardens.

Given its structure it is very suitable for a large group vacation, because you can be together despite having your own privacy, plus each bedroom has a dedicated bathroom.

Splendid pool filled with thermal water (and sauna!) and magical round stone large table overlooking the sea.

The kitchen is beautiful and spacious, it could perhaps be refurbished and, for short stays, maybe equipped with minimal amounts of dish detergent, etc.

Overall, an unforgettable place where I hope to return in the future!

Lovely villa

September 2022 - Lovely villa with a great swimming pool and view over the bay (beautiful sunsets).

The check-in process was very smooth and the owner replied promptly to all questions. Grazie!

We enjoyed our holiday very much!

July 2022 - We enjoyed our holiday very much! The location and the permanent see view were great. Our holiday was really great and relaxing. Our group would like to come here again.

The communication with the property owner worked very well.

Had a great stay

June 2022 - We were a group of 11 adults who had a great stay at Villa Alisea. The view from the villa is amazing!

About 10 minutes walk to the beach, and a few minutes to the nearest mini markets and restaurants.

Very good

June 2022 - We absolutely loved the location of Villa Alisea and the beautiful gardens and fantastic view. The BBQ space is idyllic. We had a very good time as a group of 12.

Very happy with Summer In Italy.

A fabulous time had by all

June 2022 - A fabulous time had by all - 7 adults and one nearly 2yr old. Very spacious inside and out....

We especially loved the barbecue area with the huge table and Lazy Susan - the views were superlative. The pool is on the upper terrace which meant our toddler was more easily kept an eye on in the downstairs garden. Lots of night time lighting added to the ambiance and sipping GandT's in the wonderful lit pool late in the evenings was wonderful!

The owner Alessandra was easily contactable and responded to any requests very quickly - her staff were equally helpful.

Summer In Italy were wonderful to deal with (second time for us) and were endlessly patient and helpful.

A fabolous time

July 2019 - We had a fabulous time!!! Six big bedrooms, lots of space inside and especially outside, volcanic sauna and pool(!), short walk down to the beach, and lots of shops just a 2 minute walk away. Fabulous.

It was all we had hoped for and MORE

May 2019 - It was all we had hoped for and MORE. The heated thermal swimming pool was great and helped ease the arthritis several of us have. The grounds were beautiful, the villa was fully stocked with towels, blankets, kitchen goods, etc. The view down to the beach was very nice and there were 3 large seating areas, each with a large table and many chairs, for relaxing. Bathrooms are modern; nothing was outdated on the premises. Villa Alisea is a wonderful getaway spot!!

Alessandra, the owner, is a very pleasant and welcoming person. Her staff of 3 were helpful, but non-intrusive. I can't think of any needed improvements. We already recommended (and showed) her villa.

We loved every second of our stay!

July 2018 - We loved every second of our stay at Villa Alisea. Clean, amazing location and beautiful home.

Thank you for providing us the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable summer vacation with our entire family. We can't wait to come back to Ischia!

We have nothing but good things to say about Summer In Italy. I was definitely skeptical when I booked this home but you went above and beyond to answer any and all questions. Great customer service!

Excellent

April 2018 - Villa Alisea is a wonderful place to stay and the thermal pool was outstanding.

I have visited the island of Ischia 4 times and this is the best villa by far I have ever stayed at.

Certainly can use me as a reference for anybody who wants to stay there. Thanks again.

Excellent choice for our group

July 2017 - Villa Alisea was an excellent choice for our group. The view was amazing. Location is okay. Easy to walk down to beach but getting back up is a different story, we used taxi (20€ for 10 persons). But after all it was an amazing place and would definitely recommend this for groups.

Summer In Italy have an excellent service. When I'll come back to Italy I’ll contact you for sure. Thank you very much for everything.

Fantastic

July 2014 - As 12 young adults staying in this home, we could not have been happier.

It was a beautiful villa, with an even better view! We especially loved all of the outdoor space and hardly sat inside at all. The pool and sauna were absolutely perfect after a day past exploring the island.
