“Set back on a gorgeous hillside, this peaceful retreat has been run by one family for five generations. Enjoy the secluded garden spots shaded by olive trees and the heated infinity pool with a view. Elegant bedrooms and apartments with parquet flooring and Italian furnishings. A beautiful spot.”

Hotel review

The Hotel Belvedere first opened in 1880 and has since been handed down over five generations from mother to daughter. The attentive, homely service is friendly and effortless. The hotel boasts four fine restaurant areas - The Terrace, The Veranda, The Breakfast Room and The Lounge Bar - all with excellent service and beautifully laid out. Bedrooms have classic Italian furnishings and most have balconies or a small terrace. A secluded, romantic spot.
