Best Portonovo Spa Hotels

The Fortino is a wonderful, unique place to stay. The staff are all really friendly, our room was lovely, great breakfast in the inner courtyard. We had dinner there twice , the food was good if a little expensive and location overlooking the sea on the terrace as the sun set is stunning. We stayed over a weekend and 2 weddings were on. This meant a busy car park and a bit of noise, but no major disruption for hotel guests. The immediate access to the public rocky shoreline for walking around the bay and swimming was very handy, yet still the hotel grounds were secure for guests. The large garden with plenty of space and options for sunbathing or shade was excellent, with a nice pool. Monte conero area is a super place to be, Sirolo and Munama are worth visiting and many of the beaches can be reached with a bit of a walk. Portonovo itself benefits from sitting right on the water. There is not a lot there, but we loved being right on the sea with the hill behind us. When it got dark at sunset it was such a peaceful place. The road to the hotel is....tricky! Then you get used to the bends. And we never did find an easy route from around Ancona! Final tip, book il Molo restaurant on the beach next door, it was a highlight. A lovely start to our Le Marche adventure, thanks to all the staff.

Everyone in the staff always had a ready smile and was always helpful! Excellent views of the beach from the restaurant and the room! We took our meals at the restaurant and food as well as the service were great! For starters, we were served sparkling white wine and some bruschetta! We ordered pasta and vegetable gratin each and were surprised by the large portions! But everything was delicious so we were more than satisfied. About the location, you need to walk up a bit but we did not mind the exercise at all. Also, if you find yourself in Portonovo, you will be a bit far from the city center. So if you need to shop for necessities, you need to drive 20-30 minutes to Numana. The hotel gave excellent suggestions and arranged also for a hired taxi. All-around great service and would definitely visit again in the future if given the chance.
