hotel terme ischia I'll tell you briefly my experience of travel to Ischia, who deserves it.
Sono partito da Termoli, la mia città, con la mia ragazza. Partenza ore 6.15 del mattino con autobus Cerella, biglietto acquistato al Bar Tramonto antistante il terminal degli autobus di Termoli. Arrivo a Napoli ore 9.45 circa. Quindi metropolitana fino ad una stazione di cui non ricordo il nome (ma basta chiedere a chiunque in stazione centrale) e poi 5 min a piedi fino al molo di Mergellina dove si prende l'aliscafo per Ischia porto.
Premetto che avevo prenotato via internet presso l' hotel terme ischia Suisse Thermal Village della catena Aurum Hotel (a Casamicciola, comune dell'isola di Ischia). La prenotazione avviene completamente attraverso il sito http://www.aurumhotel.it/it/suisse_thermal/
Le pagine del sistema di prenotazione hanno un aspetto molto artigianale, quasi preoccupante, ma spinto dalla fiducia trasmessami da un conoscente che vi aveva già soggiornato ho completato la procedura pagando con bonifico, e alla fine ho stampato il voucher che è il documento da presentare all'arrivo. Da notare che non sono mai riuscito a parlare telefonicamente con nessuno dell'hotel prima di partire, ma alla fine è andato tutto bene.
Durante la prenotazione, nelle note, ho chiesto gentilmente di poter avere una stanza nei piani alti, e la richiesta è stata esaudita (lo consiglio perché altre persone che hanno alloggiato nei piani bassi si sono trovati male). Il costo è stato di 134 Euro/giorno per due persone, for a double room with sea view (see photo) and full board. They serve themselves, there are always 2 minutes and two seconds, and the breakfast is very good. It is not a fancy restaurant, but the food quite well. I do not recommend the salads. With regard to swimming pools in the hotel complex, there are two hot springs, water brownish color in which frankly I have not heard of immergeremi, and a spa, but always cold and measures suitable for swimming, where instead there We dipped but risking frostbite. I believe that in late summer it can occur at a temperature of more human.
We visited the island in the Easter weekend. The weather has been fluctuating, but overall rather mild. The benefit was that there was still touring, so we enjoyed the island without the crowds. On the island should rent a scooter, there are everywhere (almost all Piaggio Liberty 125).
Our vacation was held as follows: First day
Arrival at 13:30 in Hotel, dinner. Afternoon rest. In the evening dinner and then a walk from the hotel to the promenade of Casamicciola. Nothing special.
Day rent a scooter, 30 Euro / day. We ask for information at the Info Point of Casamicciola. We knew that there is a set in which hot thermal water springs, tell us that you call Sorgeto.
We start now to reach this place. Located at the south west of the island, just take a map. You get to turn to Panza, then follow the signs and asking the locals. At some point we must abandon the middle and down the stairs. There is a spring at 90 degrees, which is mixed with sea water you bathe in warm water even in April! Beautiful! Obviously, in April there is a lot of people so it's even more beautiful.
Coming off Sorgeto, being now time for lunch, look for a place to eat, and my nose led me to the restaurant La Forastera, in the green in a very quiet and pleasant. They make us sit on a veranda with a breathtaking sea view. We order the spaghetti with clams, delicious. The manager is very friendly, are sure to come back! Also ask if they have rooms, and we replied that they have a connected structure called
Al Bosco Hotel, 3 stars. If you are looking for a quiet place, in my opinion this is the right side of the island.
In the afternoon, we stop going back on the beach overlooking the Gardens of Poseidon, which are the most beautiful spa park island. Admission is free, the sand is beautiful, and we with a lot of courage to make us even the bathroom. The sun creates sagging very beautiful reflections on the water. Already we see a good invasion of Eastern women who sell massage for 5 Euros. Other than that I highly recommend to visit this beach to get some 'sun and swim in the crystal. Returning back again we stop for a walk in Forio, a little 'shopping, and great ice cream Calise. Not content to do even a trip to Ischia port for a walk around the course (Via Roma), where many shops. In the evening we enjoy a refined meal in a restaurant on the seafront of Mary and Juliet Casamicciola. 4th Euro each for appetizer, first, second and sweet, all refined.
Third day
spent the whole morning, at the Giardini Poseidon, the island's most famous spas in Ischia. Entrance costs 28 Euro and allows you to stay inside all day. At the entrance to provide maps and suggestions for the best route to go in the pools of different temperature from 28 degrees to 40 degrees. There is another possibility, namely to put in only half a day in the afternoon by paying 23 Euro. I recommend it, because in the morning the sun is getting stronger and disturbs the pleasure of bathing in thermal waters, as well as being cheaper of course.
Going away to eat a sandwich "sandwich" a kiosk in the square nearby. Great sandwiches!
Day Four
see the map. I see that there is a beach that we have not yet visited, that of San Montano, extreme north-west of the island. The reach in an instant. It 's a very nice set that too. Having time there is also a place called Negombo, should be of the gardens, but there we were.
Then in the afternoon we visit Sant'Angelo, another very pretty village. We eat better baba.
We are fortunate and the evening's concert in Eugene Jackson Square:)
Day Five
It
chilly, so no beach. We head for the Aragonese castle. The town is very characteristic, especially in the harbor area. It's windy so the sea is rough and the view is even more striking.
To reach the castle there is a long walkway in the middle of the sea, and when you reach the highest wave is likely to take a bath! Da die laughing! :):):)
Two gentlemen who had escaped the danger they give us their tickets that they had not even checked.
Climb in the elevator, and then you can go on foot. Standing over the view is beautiful, even if inside the castle there is not much to see, but just the view.
Day Six
We leave unfortunately. We go away with the scooter and all the luggage.
Then take the ferry from Casamicciola Snav that scale to arrive in Naples and Procida Beverello. From there, take bus No. 1, which brings us to the central station of Piazza Garibaldi.
So we decide to spend a few hours to Naples to look a little 'shop windows, eating a pizza and a baba or a pastry.
Obviously you can not miss a visit to the Cathedral and San Gennaro ...
... and most characteristic streets (Spaccanapoli and surroundings). Eat a pizza pizzeria
angel, Piazzetta Nilo.
So we share for the 16 Termoli.
the next!
