The hotel room was clean and spacious; we had a balcony with a sea view. The breakfast facilities were varied and filling, gluten-free cakes were provided. There was an abundance of cakes, fruit, pastries, cereals and savoury options such as hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes and cheese or cold ham, of which you could have as much as you like. In addition, hot drinks and fresh juices. The staff were interactive and accommodating. We opted to spend our days by the sea, where we hired two sun loungers and an umbrella; the price was reasonable at 20 euros for the day, the loungers were positioned by a jetty and there was a ladder to gain access to the sea for swimming. The area was watched by a lifeguard and you could purchase drinks and snacks throughout the morning and into the afternoon. There were also two pools if you wished to bathe by the pool. The hotel is situated at the end of a beachfront and access to the main town of Forio took us about 15 minutes. Forio is a vibrant and picturesque town and there are plenty of restaurants and bars with a variety of food options, the sunsets are lovely. There are thermal spas all over the island, we also visited Castello Aragnose d'Ischia, which is stunning there is a lovely bar towards the top of the castle where you have terrific views of Capri. The island of Procida is worth a visit, it's beautiful and very tranquil and relaxing. We had a lovely time.

The overall atmosphere is perhaps more fitting for a slightly more senior clientele, although that didn't stop us from having a lovely holiday.

The people running the place were excellent. Despite an initial mix-up with the number of beds required, the gentleman who booked us in late in the evening did as much as he could to help both with sorting the bed and a late dinner. The rest of the staff over the following days were delightful and most helpful. They strove to make the stay as stress-free and comfortable as possible. All up, a great place to visit as a destination and as a hotel.

There was an assumption that two adults plus a child would be a husband plus a wife plus their child. This was not the case for us (it was me + my adult daughter and my 15 YO son). This meant the bed arrangement upon arrival was not satisfactory despite the Booking.com site saying that a Family Room would contain a double bed plus two bunk beds. Whilst this was not great, they provided two rooms for us for a few days until they could get the bunk bed into the original room - all sorted. The other thing to say is the beds were a little hard - we prefer medium.

This is a lovely hotel in an amazing location in Forio. It’s so close to lots of great restaurants and the ocean is in front of it, the beach is a 2 min walk. It has a beautiful courtyard to sit out on and is the perfect spot for watching the sunset in the evenings. The staff in this hotel are fantastic, so friendly and helpful. Gaetano and the team helped us with all of our questions and are a credit to the hotel. The hotel also has a pool and small thermal pool which I loved. You need to wear a swim cap but this is standard in the island, it’s light and comfortable to wear and needed if you visit the large thermal pool parks anyway so worth buying early (Poseidon is wonderful and a short bus journey away). There is also a platform out front you can rent loungers on which we highly enjoyed , with steps straight into the sea and staff to order drinks from. Highly recommend!

Great place to stay in Forio! La Scogliera hotel is located at the waterfront with it's own sun deck at the sea with possibility to go swimming there straight from it. Our room was clean and spacious with beautiful sea view. There is a lot of sunbeds at the pool and sundeck so there was no problem with finding unoccupied ones. Last but not least the staff is amazing! They are very helpful, eager to provide tips on exploring the island and solving any problems you may encounter during your stay. Great thanks to the manager, you helped us having a wonderful week in Forio!

Not much to complain about. Only thing I think might be a problem for somebody willing to sunbath a lot is that sundeck located on the shore is seasonal. It is rebuilt every year to be ready on the beggining of the season. If this bothers you, make sure it is opened. If willing to go swimming in the sea beware of the sea urchins and bring swimming shoes!

The hotel concierge was AMAZING. Being American, and our first time on the island, we needed some help and direction. Gaetano in particular was a huge help. Especially when it came down to helping us track down our luggage that was delivered (it was did not make our connecting flight in Rome). Thank you so much!!!

The hotel lobby was clean and had great staff and amenities. The refrigerator in our room did not work very well as our waters/sodas were always room temperature. Also, the cleanliness of our room, under the bed, in particular could be improved. Overall, very happy with our stay.

It was our second time we've stayed here, once in May 2023 as a couple trip and again May 2024 a big friend group trip. We went this year to with a bunch of friends to celebrate my husband's 30th birthday because we really loved Ischia and this hotel treated us so well in 2023. The breakfast and dinners were amazing and there's a lot to choose from. The hotel is beautifully decorated, very clean pools with a view of the forest/hill and the fact there's a view of the sea from the front of the hotel, courtyard, pool balcony and room balconies makes this place all the more special! The hotel staff are so incredibly helpful and accommodating, they really went above and beyond to make sure we had an exceptional stay, they even gave us suggestions of places to visits and sometimes the hotel has discounts/coupons for things like Negombo and Poseidon. Shout out to Gaetano, you made our stay in 2023 and 2024 amazing, as well as the surprise birthday cake for my husband's 30th made this trip all the more memorable. We will forever suggest this hotel to all our friends and family.

It would be lovely to see more non-alcoholic drinks and cocktails options as well as at least one more dish that is vegetarian on the menu for the guests who are strictly vegetarian. Also, I understand the weather was still very cold during the time we went but it would be nice to see the pier open again like how it's shown on the website, I know guests would have love to take a dip in the sea directly from the hotel's pier.

The staff were fantastic, so friendly and helpful. We were half board and we had great food in the evening with the waiters really working to make the experience memorable. The guy on the front desk was amazing, he gave us discount tickets for local days out and always there to help, can't thank him enough! We had our room upgraded for free and had a beautiful view of the sea which was really worth it, I would book a sea room if I was booking a second time, they come with a great balcony.

The bed could have been a bit softer and the air conditioning was on hot when we got there so was a bit too hot at night but was good when it was switched to cold setting.

The two pools, one is thermally heated as well which’s lovely. The staff were incredible here, so friendly and accommodating and they gave us a free upgrade to a room with a sea view. Very close to Negombo.

The tv was stuck on German channels which they never fixed whilst we were there despite saying they would. The hotel is about 15-20 mins walk from the centre of town and the beaches nearby weren’t great or were closed due to construction.

I liked everything! Rooms are lovely, with big terraces overlooking the sea. It is literally on the seaside - a beautiful long stretch of sandy clean beach, perfect for swimming. All the hotel staff are amazingly friendly, warm and helpful, more than the standard! Loved the food at the dinner too, loads of vegetables and aubergines were in particular my favorite. Loved the hotel garden, we spent a lot of time there playing cards. And the swimming pool is lovely, as well as the thermal water hot pool. A 10-minutes stroll to the wonderful little city of Forio. And bus and boat stops just a few minutes walk from the hotel to take you anywhere around the island for a trip all day round. Also very many nice bars and restaurants just around the hotel, and shops in Forio. We will definitely come back next year!

Nothing not to like!

Beautiful location, gardens and pool area. Great views of the sea and sunset. 15 minute walk to the centre of Forio - ideal for us. Super nice staff

Soundproofing could be improved. If possible avoid bedrooms near the stairs/lift
