Mastu Giacomo In Frattamaggiore

09/12/2024: My husband and I travelled to Italy for our honeymoon in October. One of the stops on our list was Naples (pizza), however we decided to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and make an island getaway to Ischia. We treated ourselves to a stay at the San Montano resort, and were truly so spoiled in the days we spent there. The first surprise was a complimentary upgrade to one of the infinity pool suites. Complimentary shuttle services transported us to and from the ferry terminal, the main town, and to the Spiaggia di San Montano, where lounge chairs and umbrellas were provided for hotel guests. We could have stayed at that beach all day. On a day when we wanted to travel further afield on the island, the concierge assisted us with booking a taxi and giving some direction for our adventure. Breakfast was a delight and featured fresh balls of mozzarella, a ham and salami slicing station (!), freshly baked bread, and an impressive array of muesli, dried fruits and nuts, sweets, and homemade jams and preserves. I highly recommend the lemon marmalade. The cocktails and menu at the dining restaurant were delicious (but expensive), and the wait staff went above and beyond to ensure an enjoyable experience. The infinity pool suite was spacious and well kept by the cleaning staff, and we visited the complimentary spa, sauna, steam room and mineral bath every day. We loved all of the outdoor pools and the amazing views afforded by being up on the mountain, but were especially impressed by the sea pool. The “natural sauna” was not super hot but was very unique and something I had never experienced. We also treated ourselves to the limontano massage package, which was heavenly. We were so glad to be able to stay at the San Montano and would absolutely love an opportunity to return for a special occasion.

23/10/2024: For a moment I really thought that I was dreaming. When we arrived in the Suite S2 I was enchanted from the very first moment. The private entrance from our terrace to the pool with this unique view was just a 10/10. I will never forget this magnificent sunset over the green little mountain. The luxury to see all this also from the bedroom is something really special. I loved every detail in the room, especially the Dyson hairdryer, the bodylotion from Acqua di Parma and the green tea from Firenze. We enjoyed also the generous breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is really no need to leave the hotel, because here you have everything. Shoutout also to Giovanni who made a wonderful massage. All in all this weekend will stay forever in my heart. Thanks to all the team for your kindness. We will definitely come back.
