"The perfect hotel. Staff was amazing, nothing more you could ask for. Definitely will be coming back"

"An absolutely stunning hotel and spa set in beautiful gardens. We had a wonderful time. The attention to detail was something else - the Botania Relais team were fantastic from the moment we arrived and throughout our 5 night stay. Fabulous restaurants, the food was incredible and the breakfast choice excellent. "

"Slightly old school (bad wifi and not pristine cleanliness if you're a germaphobe though my OCD girlfriend thought it was fine) abut loved it, amazing location, grounds and pool complex with thermal pools and plunge pool. "

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. All the staff were lovely and helpful. A special mention for Nicole, grandson of the owner, for his kindness and good humour. Breakfast was very good, and the thermal pools were gorgeous. Dining a la carte was a challenge for one of us but only because food containing octopus was not for that palette. Lunch is located separately from the evening dining rooms with a delightful view out to sea and good choices on the menu. The set evening menu tended to be better i.e. less adventurous. Of course this is all a matter of personal taste. Getting round the island is really easy by bus and it is not expensive to do so. The hotel provides an excellent shuttle service to Panza, which is a good walk up hill from the hotel to catch the buses. The shuttle will also pick up from Panza if you are not able or willing to walk back from there. This place is definitely worth a visit. "

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and cannot recommend it enough! On the beach in the most idilic of settings means the perfect holiday for us, if you are looking for somewhere quiet within walking distance of the town of Forio then this is it! Antonio was a great host and was very friendly and helpful really couldn’t do enough for us 😊❤️"

"Very convenient location, near Forio port. Quite noisy, but the windows block most of the noise. The room was super dated with furniture from the ‘70’s. Same with the bar area. The garden is nice with two thermal water pools, plus there’s a warm indoor pool. They have mud treatments and many other treatments in the spa area. Breakfast is crowded and coffee from a machine is not acceptable, especially in the Campania region, which supposedly boasts the best espresso in Italy. Even the coffee from their bar is very mediocre. The staff is welcoming and kind and they do the best they can. With such a prime location, this hotel has great potential and the owners should really improve the room decor and the breakfast/coffee."

"I've picked this hotel because it is literally 10min walk to Negombo and it has several pools with warm sea water & thermal water. We've booked a Seaview room which had a truly amazing view and at that moment it was all I needed to rest my mind. The room itself isn't very big, but enough to accommodate two people. The shower room is pretty big, tiles slightly cracked in some places, shower isn't the most modern one, but does its job well. We didn't have any troubles with pressure or lack of hot water during our stay. I think the biggest inconvenience was that AC in the room didn't work properly, it didn't change the temperature to lower. It was very hot in the night, so we slept like in a sauna and woke up with headache every day. Opening a balcony is not a great idea, because mosquitoes are vicious, and anyway it was about 35 degrees at night. Breakfast was average, nothing special for northern European standards, but definitely very good for Italy. Italians normally eat only sweets for breakfast. They served about 10 types of cakes and croissants. They did serve some scrambled eggs, bacon, cold cuts, plain salad leaves with tomatoes, which was nothing special, but edible. For me the best part of breakfast was the watermelon. Cappuccino was tasty too. During the day we ordered some cocktails at the pool bar which were served with small complimentary snacks. The variety of pools with warm water was great. Overall very good experience, we would stay again. "
