We liked the seaview, the pool was amazing also breakfast was nice (I prefer savory breakfast or muesli so not typical Italian but it was still sufficient for me) the staff was super friendly! The hotel seems to be originally from the 50s-70s last century but super well taken care of really nice! Rooms are big and comfortable with a lot of storage possibilities. Good price for what you get

“Beautiful and relaxing”
The pool area is amazing! Breakfast is lovely with a nice view out the front of the hotel. I had seen some reviews saying the short walk into Porto Azzuro was dangerous, I was pregnant so I was initially worried about this but we actually ended up doing the quick 15 min walk twice each night, as long as you stay by the wall and be careful it wasn’t an issue - I felt safe and the town is gorgeous!

“A really nice place to stay.”
Accommodation with sea view was great. Helpful staff and wonderful food. I’d recommend to include the evening meal. Would also recommend to hire a motor scooter to discover the island.

Staying at Cala di Mola is like taking a time machine back to Costa del Sol in 1987! The rooms have obviously not seen any update in 20 years and the bright orange color is their signature mark. After the first initial laugh after entering the room, we just enjoyed staying in the 80´s for a few days! Apart from that, everything is very nice; good breakfast, the pool is great and the staff in the reception were extremely helpful and nice, gave us recommendations for dinner and sights to see. Parking is no problem and overall it was a very nice stay.

“Mediterranean village immerse in the nature offering a lovely sea view and proximity to beaches”
Cala di Mola is structured like a small Mediterranean village on the side of a hill directly facing the sea and offers a chilled and relaxing vibe. Our room was spacious, clean and with air conditioning. The private swimming pool right in front of the shore is quite large and offers guests the possibility to swim (25 meters) or to just relax (adjacent pool) without interfering with each other's goals :-) .There are two bars, both facing the sea, where we loved enjoying a very generous campari spritz! Staff is very friendly and helpful and deserve a mention of honor as the best staff I've met in 30 years of travelling. Some of the best beaches on the island can be reached within 30 minutes driving and 2 of the best restaurants on the island are within 5 minutes. Overall we loved the experience.

“cute hotel with nice staff and salt water pool”
You have everything you need at the hotel and it is also super close to Porto Azzuro. We especially enjoyed the salt water pool and the super nice staff. You don’t necessarily need a car but it is to be recommended.

The staff was really nice, especially mr. Matteo. The room was very clean and so was the pool, which is pretty big. There was live music every evening, but it was mostly for kids.

“Great location. Lovely staff . Exceptional pool . Bar not open before June 1st .”
The swimming pool makes it 5* and the kindness and helpfulness of staff . Room fabulous . What let it down was hairdryer ( swimming pool type low blowing power ) and road noise which was quite intrusive . We were early season . Be prepared to hear others in neighbouring rooms in high season .

“Lovely retreat for a long stay.”
The staff were super helpful, with a smile and courteous. The room was spacious and with a fantastic view. Parking close to the room was easy. Breakfast was great in pleasant surroundings. I would have loved to have stayed longer.

ive booked two different rooms, first regular one and second superior one. Except price (superior was 50% more expensive) there wasnt any difference , although staff was trying to convince they differ. according to description on booking supperior should be bigger one, in fact they were the same, offered the same standard. i was pushing to find out why there is the difference in price, finally they insisted that these two rooms differ only furnitures :) but i couldnt notice the difference:) they cheated me simply;) before booking superior room in this hotel check it on site , dont give them chance to cheat you!!!
