Porto Ottiolu Resort

“Quaint little place.”

A pretty place with a quaint harbour where all the action is, alongside a private beach and public beach. Good bus routes which are reasonably priced but the buses do run a restricted service due to a daily 5 hour siesta.

A pretty place with a quaint harbour where all the action is, alongside a private beach and public beach. Good bus routes which are reasonably priced but the buses do run a restricted service due to a daily 5 hour siesta. Not lots to do in the sense of shopping but some nice places to eat and nice walks. Quiet during the day but comes alive at night with music and some lovey stalls from the locals.

stayed in a two bedroom apartment as a family of 5. We arrived 6 hours late thanks to easyjet and Federica was extremely helpful in getting us to our room at 11pm. we were met by the site manager who we followed by car to our apartment, he was extremely helpful and said we could hold off checking in until the following morning. he showed us what was what in the room left us to get settled. We were aware it would be a bit of a squeeze but given the amount of time we spent there, it wasn't really an issue. The only issue I had was with the bunk beds. No ladder and no safety rail on the side of the top bunk which meant we had to lift the top bunk off and create two singles, which made the room for our two youngest very tight. Our eldest had the double bed to herself and my wife and I slept on the Fouton in the living room. (which was surprisingly comfortable.) The room had a full 4 ring burner, with a gas cannister under the sink. The room was clean upon arrival and pleasant enough given we paid less than £200 for it for a week. The electrics were a bit flakey. (kept tripping when using a hair dryer.) The balcony was spacious and we sat out most nights with a carton of wine. (less than 3 euros a liter in the supermarket and not bad!) regarding the rest of the resort itself, Porto Ottiolu itself feels like a town, even though you can tell it's purpose-built. The harbor area is lovely with 4 or five restaurants and a couple of bars. (Bartiggiano being by far the best, especially if you're not a fan of European lager!) There's not a lot to do around during early season but if you like beaches and swimming you'll love it. The beach is beautiful and so clean. Prices on the resort are not extraordinary. you can get a fairly sizeable Margherita pizza from between 4 and 7 euros. All in all we had a thoroughly pleasant stay, next time though I'd spend a bit more on a larger apartment.

“Nice place for an evening walk ”

Small little Mari is with a few shops and restaurants, also a couple of market stalls. Not much else really. Beach nearby. Good place to stroll for an evening walk or to visit one of the seafood restaurants.
