AT A GLANCE

New Paragraph

Huw's View

Hotel Capo d’Orso is a highly recommended 5 star hotel with a relaxed atmosphere in a truly romantic setting with guests, young and old, returning year after year. It is the perfect choice for a special occasion, anniversary or honeymoon. 

What could be better than to start the day with an excellent buffet breakfast accompanied by the harp, then spending the day relaxing by the pool or picturesque beaches and swimming off the rocks in the clear blue sea.  Alternatively take the hotel water taxi or sailing boat out to the magnificent unspoilt islands nearby.

Here you can be as relaxed or as active as you like.   Car hire is recommended to see more of the local area.  Early booking advised.
