Reviews of Hotel Umberto A Mare 3 stars

Beautiful small, boutique property in a great setting. Very comfortable room with small terrace. Private sun bathing area with easy steps into the sea. Kayak and SUP available. Very good breakfast. Friendly and attentive staff. Hotel is just a few minutes walk into the heart of Forio. On-site restaurant is excellent. It’s more pricey than other options, but absolutely worth at least one visit.

Nothing not to like.

Great location, silence, nature , serenity

This is the most beautiful and perfect place on planet Earth.

Everything was perfect.

Breakfast was AMAZING and the location is AMAZING. Great easy access to glorious ocean. Quick walk into Forio town where restaurants and shops are. Owner was lovely and super helpful

Ask for a room that is not directly underneath the restaurant

Best place to stay in Forio!

This hotel is just beautiful, a quiet oasis away from the busy beaches of Forio. Location is fantastic. The staff are fantastic really looking after the guests with top priority.

There is nothing not to like.

Great Hospitality

all good

The hotel was gorgeous. The views from the rooms were breathtaking. The breakfast was delicious. There were a selection of breads, eggs cooked to order, cured meats and cheese, and fresh fruit. The private swimming area was so comfortable and there were never more than 2 other guests on the terrazzo. The staff was incredibly helpful. The hotel was well located for a short walk into Forio. I took a combination of taxis and buses and it was all well connected.

Nothing, it was perfect!

Fantastic location, very relaxing, nice breakfasts, staff friendly beautifully maintained hotel

Room was small but view more than made up it.

Breakfast on the balcony overlooking the sea - beautiful

Noise from restaurant above my room - scraping chairs at night. Not good.

Location, direct access to ocean and walking distance to town center. Beautiful views, basic yet comfortable and spacious rooms with a sea view terrace. Limited number of rooms so felt as if I was in a private villa steps from the sea rather than a hotel catering to many.

Nothing. Only downside is if you’re looking for thermal pools, you’ll have to spend the day elsewhere. However, I enjoyed the direct access to the ocean and enjoyed walking to places so that wasn’t an issue for me.

The location was spectacular. Views, to die for. The breakfast phenomenal and the service ottimo! We have no hesitation in returning and recommending this accommodation to others.

If you're staying in Forio and you want a fairly priced hotel with a good view, look no further. The view is breathtaking. It's an excellent value for the money. Our room was charming, good size and had a lovely terrace with gorgeous views of the cliffy coastline. They also have a little private seaside area with lounge chairs which is even better than the beach, in my opinion. Could not be better in this regard. The best meal we had during our stay was in the hotel restaurant, so don't miss it! The staff were exceptionally professional and friendly, they made us feel right at home. They are very warm will accommodate all of your needs. I love the location, it was very convenient to walk to the town/port and it's right underneath their famous chapel. Forio is full of vacationing Italians, so it has an authentic Italian feel and isn't overtaken by western tourists. There's a perfectly good beach walkable from town if you don't want to venture too far. If you do want to explore around the island, I recommend asking the reception to arrange a scooter rental for you. It was only 25 euro for the day and they bring it to the hotel for you. We had an unforgettable day driving over to Ischia Ponte. But make sure you understand and obey the traffic laws. Local police don't mess around when you disregard the signs.

Our stay was almost perfect aside couple things related to sleeping. Two of the three nights we were kept awake from the staff rearranging tables and chairs upstairs late at night. Also, I like a firm mattress, but this one was a little too hard and the pillows are a little lumpy. If it weren't for this, it would have been 10/10.

Wowww! This is an amazing property, jutting out into the sea from a rocky promotory, with a historic church above it. We loved the hotel from the minute we walked into our room and saw the two small balconies, with windows open, right over the rocky shoreline and water. Breakfast was very good, with the outdoor seating overlooking the sea. The experience and the property was amazing. And the small number of guest rooms (maybe 12?) made it a very cozy stay. The room was decorated with the colorful tile and furnishing we found common in the area. Clean, right-sized and comfortable. The location was perfect for us. 5 minute walk to Forio city center, ferry, restaurants, etc.

The bed was too soft for our taste, but other than that, not a thing! Would love to go back again!

Room was the perfect size and staff were amazing.

Breakfast was really good and fulfilling. There’s a lot of food to be had. Staff is all in all great. The location is really beautiful. It’s lovely to wake up to the sounds of the sea. The lounge area by the sea is peaceful and the water is beautiful.

Beautiful old building, built into the rocks. Right on the peninsula looking out to sea. Great sun deck with comfy loungers and steps down into the water.

Hate to complain, but the pillows were not great. 😕

the views are amazing

there is no reception so no one to greet you. The rooms are not really cleaned properly even though they have housekeeping, for example empty soap packet sat on vanity the whole 6 days, no hot water on one morning, no one really speaks english which we found very difficult to navigate . It is in an outstanding location however the hotel is old. The breakfast is lovely and do was the waitress. If your room is on lower levee there is no privacy from neighbours. To swim in beach which l did not at the property is dangerous , massive rocks to manoeuvre . The best part for us was the restaurant it was outstanding, request the terrace seating . All staff pleasant but we were left underwhelmed . At last have a manned reception area . Finally no iron and no tea/coffee facilities so apart from breakfast you need to go into town for a coffee.

Our stay was amazing. The property is family owned and super friendly. We had a room with seaview and a terrance which was amazing. Breakfast was delicious with view of the sea. Defenitly try out the restaurant. Location was great as you were at Forio village in a 5 minute walk.

Excellent stay!! Best room. Staff amazing. Breakfast place is super.
