Room was clean, great sea view, good breakfast and food

From our room,15, the view was spectacular. I could lie in bed and see the sun setting behind Porto Venere. It's an older property but generally well maintained. Staff are like a family and will do everything they can to make your stay a good experience, as long as you are respectful. Maxes, Mario, Francescas, Petro and all the team were warm, friendly and fun. We went in spring and the jasmine was in full fragrance, so lovely. There's some nice restaurants just 50m down the road and another 200m brings you to Tellaro centre, a small but nice village. It's a narrow windy road in and there's a lot of stairs at I'll Nido, so if you're averse to either, then this place is not for you. But if you don't mind stairs and like it off the way gems, then this place should be on your list. Loved our stay and would love to go back.

This hotel is excellent. The rooms are very well equipped and clean. I stayed in the main building, I noticed they also had a building on the other (non beach) side of the road. Some of the rooms were sea facing, mine (no 2) was a single with side view of the sea from a spacious balcony/ terrace that was south facing. The small beach (down many flights of stairs) equipped with deck chairs was lovely. It’s worth noting the sun does not get to this beach till mid morning. If you wanted earlier sun there is another beach around the corner where sun beds cost €10 for the day. The beach bar served a very nice salad etc. The buffet breakfast was very good and had everything you could want and the view from the windows were beautiful. The village of Tellaro is 10 minutes walk away although there are four restaurants almost as soon as you leave the hotel in the village direction. In all there are about eight restaurants in the village as well as a very nice terrace bar. All the restaurants are good.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I thought the location was really great, as it was an easy 5 min walk into old town. I loved that the hotel has several private terraces and beachfront. A few things travelers should be aware of... Check-in: The parking is on the left and the hotel reception is down the hill 100m on the right. There really isn't anywhere to park your car, as you need the key code to open the gates to the parking area. I pulled in on the left, infront of the garages that say no parking and show a towing sign, turned on my flashers and headed down to reception. Checking in was quick and easy so I was back up at my car in no time, this time with the key code. The hotel property and the town is very vertical so not ideal for someone with mobility issues. There is a snack bar with food and drinks midway between the sun terraces and beach. I planned my Saturday afternoon to relax, get some some, read and grab a snack & drink at the bar. Unfortunately it was closed and there are signs everywhere that say eating and drinking on the sun terraces is not allowed. I wish I had known it was going to be closed so I could have planned my lunch better. What's really great about the hotel is that there are also apartments available up by the parking area. These would be ideal for a group of friends or a family.

We had a quiet room with a comfortable bed and excellent shower. Breakfast was great as was the view from the breakfast room. Staff was helpful and friendly.

Lovely property and a great breakfast

The view from the room onto the water is gorgeous. Love the private beach with kayak available for use. Great place.

A unique and stunning location, goos breakfast and friendly helpful staff.

The hotel is beautiful and so welcoming including the staff …. We enjoyed 2 wonderful days of beauty …. The nearby restaurants is a wonderful treat especially the Dolfin….

Beautiful property over looking the water. Small beach area and sun bathing terraces on the walk down. Walking distance to wonderful restaurants. On site parking is very convenient. Delicious breakfast in a dining room overlooking the water.

Beautiful views. However rooms, at least our disappointing panoramic sea view room, can be very different from the hotel pictures. Suggest inquire prior to arrival. Also rooms can be across the street in separate building. Surrounding area has nice restaurants and friendly staff, less so at this property. Many flights of stairs.

Great property in a lovely area. A really great little place to explore, in walking distance of some really nice restaurants. Lovely room with an amazing view of the sea. Would definitely return and highly recommend

I love to stay at this hotel. But it is not easy to driving for us. wonderful view.

What a special place to stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a beautiful location with a private deck and bathroom. The private beach was a plus for sure.

The sea was great the beach was lovely the staff was great, be ready to climb a lot of stairs,

Thank you for an awesome holiday we really enjoyed it

The location is good and I like the private beach area. The room I was in could have been better for the price. TV was attach in a way that you cannot watch it. Some noises from the bathroom alarm all night, WiFi terrible not working the majority of the time ( connected but not able to surf). Just a small note: in Italy you need a real coffee machine. Not an automatic one or a capsule one.

Couldn’t park anywhere reception would not let us enter because they couldn’t find our booking . Not good

Beautiful stay on the beach. Has everything you need. Breakfast buffet is great and there are great local restaurants and shops within walking distance. Wish wecould have stayed longer.

Wonderful ocean views, convenient parking, and excellent breakfast buffet. We would have liked to use the beach; unfortunately that was impossible due to tides, waves, and the very narrow strip of actual sandy beach. But it was great to watch the waves crashing on the cliffs from the various outdoor seating/lounging areas.
