We were happy.
The hotel was clean and centrally located for the beach and the city center.
The breakfast was good, both sweet and savory.

I recently visited Puglia for work, and while my colleague headed north, I decided to stay behind to explore Porto Cesareo—and I am so glad I did! This town was the absolute highlight of my trip, largely thanks to my stay at Hotel Riva Del Sole.
As someone who has traveled the world non-stop for 40 years, it takes a lot to truly impress me, but this place has an extra special quality. Hotel Riva Del Soleis centrally located, close to everything, exceptionally safe, quiet, and absolutely spotless (and yes, the elevators work perfectly!). The gym is fully equipped, and the kitchen serves an amazing, diverse assortment of breakfast items.
What truly stands out, however, is the genuine care that the hosts and front desk managers bring to the table. It is an incredibly well-run establishment. If you are visiting the area, I cannot recommend staying here enough!

A gem of gems located two blocks from a beautiful sandy beach in Porto Cesareo. The owners/proprietors are absolutely fabulous! The rooms are large, clean and very affordable. Highly recommend.

A high-quality hotel—comfortable, clean, and new. The staff is friendly and attentive. Without a doubt, the best in the area!

A nightmare end to the year and start of 2026.
My partner and I arrived on December 30, 2026, to spend New Year's Eve with many friends.
The safe didn't work, instead of bidet towels there were bathmats from under the sink, the refrigerator didn't work and was empty, and the closet had only four hangers for two people.
We notified reception, and they told us they'd send a maintenance man, but in three days of our stay, he didn't arrive.
The next day, they didn't come to clean the room; I went to reception to pick up the towels.
The worst came on January 1, 2026. There was no water in any room. No one could wash, use the toilet, shave, etc. The water was turned on at 11:00 a.m., but brown water came out of the taps. No assistance was provided, no explanation was given.
Many guests left the hotel having already paid, others asked for at least a refund for lunch.
The organization's arrogant and rude response was: "There is no refund, and if you feel like it, you can go wherever you want."
This hotel and this organization will never see me again.
