Having holidayed in many places with many companies (on this occassion with SHEARINGS) as well as travelling independantly - I have yet to meet a more unenthusiastic, resentful,more 'unwelcoming' hotel team. Bearing in mind too that this is a family run hotel with the family at front of house. Not a smlie all week (and I mean that quite literally).... More

I have just returned from a 9 day shearings trip to this hotel. If you are looking for a plush hotel this isn't it. The bedroom was large and clean with clean bedding and the maids cleaned it every day. It had a safe which was only big enough to put a purse & wallet in. Others said they had... More

Just returned from a Shearing's holiday in Italy and stayed at the Hotel Villa Ombrosa. Really liked the hotel - it was quiet, very clean and the food was nice. It was one of the few hotels where I was able to sleep well. I would recommend the hotel and the Shearing's holiday - Tuscany and the Island of Elba,... More

Have been sifting through our holiday snaps from last September 2012, which reminded me to leave an account of our stay at the Villa Ombrosa, at Marina di Pietrasanta. If I was to be asked would I stay there again, the answer would definitely be a YES!. Loved the area, beautiful beach, though the free beach was a good twenty... More

The hotel was on a quiet street so no noise. The rooms were fine, clean and tidy. Bed made up every day and room cleaned and tidied. Fresh towels whenever needed. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Plenty of choice for breakfast with fresh fruit, the bread rolls were a bit hard though. There was a choice of evening meal which... More

We were part of a Shearings trip.The hotel was not too bad but the attitude and demeanor of the staff left a lot to be desired. On the plus side the rooms were clean and adequate for our needs. All rooms had a balcony with sea view or mountain view but we were on the first floor where you just... More

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel last week. The rooms were clean and a comfortable size with a good bathroom and shower. We were on the second floor facing the road, but it was very quiet at night. The family and staff at the hotel were welcoming efficient and friendly. The breakfast was a bit disappointing, but the evening... More

Just returned from a Shearings coach tour staying in this hotel for 6 nights. (Sept 2012) The hotel is spotlessly clean. Our room was a comfortable spacious room and had a clean shower-room with bidet. We were in a 2nd floor twin room with views over the roof tops and mountains from our balcony. I moved from one bed, to... More

My husband and I stayed at this family run hotel for a week at the end of May as part of a Glenton Coach trip from Scotland. Our room was comfortable and clean with plenty of space. We had a balcony which looked over to the mountains and got the sun first thing in the morning which was very pleasant.... More
