Baglioni Resort Cala del Porto 

My husband and I have just spent 5 fantastic nights at this stunning hotel. We had spent a busy tour visiting Florence, Siena, La Spezia and Cinq Terre. We were very ready to relax and be pampered and we certainly were at this gorgeous hotel. We stayed in a standard room which was beautifully decorated and had fabulous high quality furnishing/fabrics and bedlinen. If you are able to afford a sea view I think it would be well worth it. The decor through the entire hotel is so calming and beautiful. The staff are all wonderful, polite and friendly. Everyone from the managers to the waiters and cleaners. The outside pool area is also fabulous with lovely loungers and beautiful towels provided. Breakfast is plentiful with a good variety of continental and cooked options. Cooked breakfasts are freshly cooked and brought to your table. We ate twice in the restaurant and it was delicious. We were a little surprised to discover that all the beaches were private and the cost was €40 per day (incl loungers and parasol) however we found a quiet beach nearby where we managed to find a public area to have our daily swim and then return to the stunning pool area to sunbathe. As has been said this is a quiet area and definitely not for partygoers! After our busy tour it proved absolutely perfect for us. We found several lovely walks and also enjoyed browsing the beautiful yachts in the nearby marina. There are a few shops and restaurants in the marina area and we enjoyed several good/cheaper meals here too. Thank you for a super holiday, we highly recommend.

Spent a few days at this wonderful hotel at the end of out Tuscan honeymoon. First, a few words about Punta Ala. It’s a great spot to finish off a summer trip to Tuscany. Maybe about 2 hours from the heart of Tuscany, Punta Ala offers great sand beaches and wonderful seafood in contrast to the heat and more earthy meals in the hilltop Tuscan towns. Its a great place to cool off, get some time in the ocean, and beat the high temps more inland. Fantastic for couples, has a strip in town with a handful of restaurants a few lounges which stay up late but quieter than other Medditeranean spots. In contrast to the tourist swarm in places like Cinque Terre or Amalfi Coast, the people here are still primarily Italians and Italian families who head there for the summer weekends/months. For couples and families its absolutely perfect. The hotel is the star. Situated above the harbor, it has fantastic views of the harbor, coastline, and sunsets. What especially stands out however is the personal touch. The service was impeccable, and everyone went above and beyond to make our stay special. When my wife wasn’t feeling well, the bellman drove us to the Pharmacy and even went inside with us to help translate. When they found out we were on our honeymoon, we came home one evening to find a wonderful desert waiting for us in our room and wishing us Congratulations. On another night we found a lit candle and flower pedals spread out. The manager of the hotel even came over to give us his best wishes and we had a great conversation. We couldn’t have felt more welcome and I don’t think there could’ve been a better place to celebrate our special trip. Bravo! Rooms all had great views, getting to the beach is simple, maybe a 5 min shuttle ride away, never had to wait more than a few minutes for shuttle. If you’re traveling to Tuscany or looking for that Italian beach experience, consider Punta Ala. And if you’re going to Punta Ala, stay at Baglioni Resort Cala del Porto. Or don’t, I’m not sure word should get out about this fabulous place!!

The staff were fantastic and the restaurant exceptional the rooms a bit tired we had a suite but there were chipped tiles in the Bathroom not what you expect in a 5 star hotel. Note you have to pay extra for the beach which i think is a bit of a cheek.

Perfect location for couples or business. Amazing view and customer service. The food wasn’t wow but still decent. Probably over priced for the quality but I guess you pay for the view :) Overall beautiful and peaceful experience!

This hotel is so well worth every cent. The staff were so welcoming and obliging and nothing was too much trouble. Our junior suite was out of this world. Looking out across the harbour. There was a shuttle service from the hotel to the private beach😄😄. Pampered or what and when we were ready to ready to return to the hotel the car came back for us and the driver had hot face towels for us. The food was fabulous also. We were truly sorry to leave.
