B&B Marcantonio - Ischia Ponte

This was a splendid large tiled very clean room near Ischia Ponte with all amenities, even his and hers bathroom basins. Fridge, tv, aircon,safe, access to superb kitchen for coffee, water etc. Beautifully designed room, big comfy bed. Breakfast was amazing on the kichen terrace. Example of a mixed sweet and savoury: pancakes, homemade jams, syrup, omelette, caponata, bread, doughnuts, coffee., 10 euros each. Well worth it. Welcome was great, with water offered after a long trip and a clear explanation of keys etc. Location was quiet and only minutes to Ischia Ponte by nearby bus (walkable in 10 mins) or Ischia Porto. Catrin e Daniella were perfect hosts. Questa era una splendida camera grande, piastrellata, molto pulita, vicino a Ischia Ponte, con tutti i comfort, anche i lavandini del bagno per lui e per lei. Frigo, tv, aria condizionata, cassaforte, accesso a una cucina superba per caffè, acqua, ecc. Camera dal design accattivante, letto grande e comodo. La colazione era fantastica sulla terrazza della cucina. Esempio di misto dolce e salato: frittelle, marmellate fatte in casa, sciroppo, frittata, caponata, pane, ciambelline, caffè., 10 euro cad. Ne vale la pena. L'accoglienza è stata fantastica, con acqua offerta dopo un lungo viaggio e una chiara spiegazione delle chiavi, ecc. La posizione era tranquilla e a pochi minuti da Ischia Ponte con l'autobus vicino (raggiungibile in 10 minuti) o Ischia Porto. Catrin e Daniella erano dei padroni di casa perfetti.

We stayed for a week at this beautiful B&B. Met at the gate by Catrin who helped us with the luggage. Our room was very spacious with a huge cabinet with hangers, shelves and drawers for all of our clothes. There was also a luggage caddy in the room. Bedside tables were equipped with charging stations and drawers. Our room also had air conditioning and a mini fridge. The modern bathroom was complete with all the essentials. Beautiful wooden doors opened onto our own terrace with chairs with a lovely view of the backyard gardens. The breakfast was very good - coffee, juice and pastries which could be enjoyed inside or on the terrace. The B&B is located a 5 min walk to the beach and a grocery store is on the corner. A 10 min walk in either direction will bring you to many restaurants and shops. The location is perfect - very quiet but close enough to the action. I highy recommend this B&B.

SERVICE: This place make you feel like home. The owners spoke English very well for living on the island their whole life. We were a family of 4 from Canada and didn't speak a word of Italian. They were very accommodating to our needs; they helped us with taxi's, restaurant choices and things to do on the island with 2 young kids. FOOD: They made us cappuccino, bruschetta, a frittata (an omelette) every morning using the eggs, tomatoes, and basil from their garden/chickens. The kids ate croissants with Nutella and some of the local fruit they grew on the property. ROOMS: Our family rented the 2 bedroom unit. Rooms were big , air conditioning was cold and the shower temp was always hot. KITCHEN: We were allowed to share this massive kitchen to prepare lunches, pack picnics or have a late night snack. PATIO: The patio was huge. Loved drinking your morning coffee or having a glass of wine before bed. Since your on the 3rd floor you have great view of the castle! LOCATION: We were walking distance to everything we needed. A supermarket to stock the fridge, a beach for the kids, shops to purchase souvenirs, restaurants, cafes and my kids favorite the gelato shops.
