The view of Mt. Vesuvius is absolutely stunning -- exactly as in the photos! We loved being able to walk across the street and swim at the beach! (Luigi even left us 2 beach towels when I mentioned we wanted to go to the beach). He was very quick to respond to our questions and requests. Plus, he was super accommodating with our (VERY) late arrival and allowed us to take extra time before checking out to enjoy the beach one more time! Highly recommended place to stay!
