Torrenova Lungomare
2 Sandro Luminar

The service was extremely poor. I requested two aperol spritz, but the server informed me that he could only prepare one. When I inquired about other drink options like a mojito, he suggested a prosecco or a white wine instead. I ended up sitting with a watered-down aperol and a glass of prosecco, while observing numerous aperols and camparis being served to other customers within just 20 minutes. It was a truly awful experience.

This beach is absolutely stunning! I've traveled to many places, but I have never seen such a vibrant blue sea in my entire life. The beach is incredibly clean, not a single cigarette butt in sight, and they even provide free public showers for everyone. And the best part is, despite its size, the beach isn't overcrowded at all.

Capo Skino beach
6 Miranda Lane

We spent a week in Capo Skino and our first night was terrible because the air conditioning wasn't working. However, the next day we switched to a room with a sea view, and it was definitely worth paying extra for that room. Otherwise, you might end up with something completely different. I have to admit that the food was quite disappointing. For breakfast, there was a lot of gluten and the only vegetable option was tomatoes. However, dinner was much better with more vegetables. It's a shame that you have to buy fresh fruits on your own, especially in a country like Italy. Also, the WiFi in the rooms could be improved.
