relax in the green near the sea and from the center of Forio
Bright one bedroom apartment in Mediterranean style, with high ceilings, fully furnished and renovated with terrace level sheltered by a roof, habitable and most panoramic. The apartment is on the first floor in a private park a few steps from the Chiaia beach, the tourist port, the hydrofoils and the center. The apartment overlooks the lush condominium garden with a large swimming pool and sun loungers and tables. The large double room has a balcony that overlooks the terrace, 3 comfortable chests of drawers, built-in wardrobe and bedside tables, a small TV. The living room has a three-seater sofa that easily turns into 2 single beds, a pouf that can also be opened into a bed, a living room furniture and a television. The dining table for 6 can also be placed on the terrace, where there are also several deckchairs and a small table. The kitchen is open-plan, small but functional, equipped with a large fridge-freezer, oven and brand new cooking stove; it is equipped with everything you need to cook like at home! The bathroom is blind but large, with a nice shower cabin and complete with all the bathroom fixtures, soaps and towels. The pool is condominium and seasonal; it is generally in operation from June to the end of September while the garden is always usable. WIFI is available in the lobby of the building.
Sehr schöne Anlage mit einem tollen Swimmingpool. Die Wohnung ist schön und angenehm groĂ.Die Ausstattung war gut, hĂ€tte aber etwas moderner sein können (z.B. Kaffeemaschine, Mikrowelle) . Insgesamt ein wirklich wunderbarer Ort und wir konnten alles zu FuĂ oder mit dem Bus erreichen.
The apartment is very nice and clean, the swimming pool is beautiful and the location is perfect. It was just perfect for a little holiday with our two children. Recommended!
Wir waren Ende MĂ€rz/ anfangs April dort. Vieles war auf der Insel noch geschlossen, incl. Thermen. Da das Wetter kĂŒhl war, war anfangs Saison auch das Haus noch kĂŒhl und unbelebt.
Wohnzimmer und Schlafzimmer entsprechen dem Inserat; KĂŒche und Bad hingegen sind sanierungsbedĂŒrftig.
Kontakt mit Vermieterin (Filomena) freundlich und hilfsbereits.
Alles war einfach nur Klasse. Suchen, buchen und bezahlen ging wirklich völlig problemlos. Bereits vor unserer Ankunft hatte ich Kontakt mit der Vermieterin und auch mit Filomena. Sie kĂŒmmert sich vor Ort um die Wohnung, damit ankommende GĂ€ste sich sofort wohlfĂŒhlen. Das Apt. war sehr sauber und schön eingerichtet. In der KĂŒche war alles vorhanden was man fĂŒr einen unbeschwerten Aufenthalt benötigt. Das Apt. ist Teil einer groĂen Wohnanlage, die mit einem schönen Garten und einem groĂen AuĂenpool glĂ€nzt. Der Pool ist aber nicht geheizt....
Die Ferienanlage ist vom Hafen Forio aus zu FuĂ schnell erreicht. LĂ€den und Restaurants sind auch nicht weit weg. Es war ein perfekter Aufenthalt.
Negativ: Die Toilette ist sehr nah an der Dusche = fĂŒr groĂe Personen etwas schwierig. Das Bad ist schon etwas renovierungsbedĂŒrftig.
Neutral: Herd wird mit Gas betrieben. Das hat etwas gerochen.
Positiv: Aber technisch hat alles funktioniert. In 10 min ist man zu FuĂ im historischen Zentrum von Forio. Es ist sehr ruhig am Ende einer PrivatstraĂe gelegen. Wir haben es nur zum Ăbernachtung und Duschen genutzt.
What a wonderful vacation did we have in Marilena's apartment! The apartment is nicely decorated and has a great view over the garden and the pool and the sea. We were surprised by the high quality of the kitchen utensils, there was everything we needed to cook at home and in very good condition. The apartment is located in the 1st floor of a condominium of about 50 apartments. We lived in the apartment for the last three weeks of June and for the first week we were just about the only people in the building apart from the very nice housekeeper Franco.
The building is called Parco Santa Caterina and is located at the end of the street, some 300 meters up from the main road which runs by the sea. It seems the apartments are mainly vacation apartments, perhaps owned mainly by people living in Naples region. During the weekends there was more people around. We were the only non-Italian family around, but everyone was very friendly to us.
The location is about the best you can get. Just 5 minutes down the road and you are on the best beach of Ischia. It is a large free beach with perfect sand and it is shallow and warm for kids. There are also wave breakers so there is hardly any waves. We loved that there are crystal white sandy dunes under the sea when you swim out from the wave breakers.
It is also very convenient to walk to the city, just 10-15 minutes along the seaside main road. For grocery shopping it was very easy to go through the back gate where you can get to Monterone township. There is a Dok supermarket and (a better) Deco in just 300-400 meters. Some uphill is to be expected, but nothing bad.
In the apartment the double bed is wide, but the mattress is not very thick so be prepared for a hard bed. Naturally air conditioning would also be nice, but there are fans.
Wifi coverage is a real problem. There is no wifi in the apartment and we brought a WiTourist wifi box with us. It works with Wind operator. Unfortunately the coverage for Wind (and Vodafone and Tim) was very poor in the apartment. For some reason our wifi box seemed to work up to around 9 pm, but after that we were not able to get any 3G or 4G. Most likely the cell towers facing the apartment did get crowded. The coverage was good when we moved the box out to the garden so that the building does not block it, but then we were not able to get Wifi signal strong enough into the apartment.
Nevertheless, we will definitely come back! Thank you so much Marilena!
Ho soggiornato con la mia famiglia 9 giorni al Parco S. Caterina con un ottimo rapporto qualitĂ prezzo, ho trovato al mio arrivo una casa comoda e accogliente in una posizione strategica anche senza mezzi propri di trasporto rimane molto comoda per soggiorni brevi o lunghi, Ăš a due passi dalla spiaggia della Chiaia una delle piĂč belle e sabbiose, sono rimasta molto contenta del tempo trascorso in questo Residence con una bellissima terrazza con vista su piscina e mare e ho trovato una padrona di casa sempre disponibile a ogni mia esigenza in qualunque orario.
Ringrazio per l'incantevole soggiorno consigliandovi questo incantevole parco per le vostre vacanze.
Mooie locatie, erg rustig en op slechts enkele minuten lopen van het centrum.
Deze locatie, voorzien van een mooi zwembad is rustig gelegen. Het appartement is compleet ingericht. Op slechts enkele minuten lopen van het centrum.
Met openbaar vervoer zijn alle bezienswaardigheden op het eiland goed te bereiken.
The flat is lovely, and very well equipped, including a washing machine, and fridge freezer. The shared pool and the garden are both well maintained and very large.
Situated in Forio, it is close to the town, but in a quiet street with beautiful sea views.
Our host was always available by phone /text if we needed any help.
On the down side there is no wifi, and the apartment would benefit from a printed help guide to using the equipment and where things are situated within the flat.
Overall lovely and would happily return.
The appartement is charming and very well equipped with all you need, even coffee and sugar were there! We specially enjoyed the huge garden downstairs and the big balcony. The appartment is in a very quiet area a bit uphill, but very near to walk to beach, village and port of Forio. The owner took good care of us and was a great host! We had a very relaxed and pleasant stay. The only negative thing is when it rains heavily, the roof is leaking and within very short time the balcony gets flooded...
I would nevertheless recommend the appartment 100%, it's a great place!
Siamo stati ad Ischia per un matrimonio ed abbiamo approfittato dell'occasione per farci un week and di mare su un'isola splendida e che non conoscevamo. Abbiamo cosĂŹ prenotato e soggiornato in 4 a Forio nella Casetta Azzurra.
L'appartamento Ăš molto confortevole e rispecchia quanto mostrato nelle foto, il bagno Ăš ben accessoriato anche se un po' sacrificato.
Il contesto intorno Ăš piacevolissimo: un parco con piscina (che purtroppo era vuota essendo fuori stagione).
Per arrivare all'appartamento si percorre una strada privata che parte dal lungomare di Forio, a pochi metri dal centro del paese.
Tutto Ăš raggiungibile comodamente a piedi.
Marilena Ăš stata una padrona di casa premurosa ed attenta ed i consigli che ci ha dato su locali e ristoranti, ci hanno pienamente soddisfatto.
Assolutamente consigliato
