Villanova Vacations from $1,042

We would definitely recommend this property, just highlighting a lot of confusion around dining table assignments, and that for some reasons the outdoor one kept being moved under the sun despite plenty of availability under the shaded areas and us moving the tables every time clearly annoyed of the sun. Another element of improvement we would have liked is availability of water bottle refilling stations around the property.

Simply our favorite place. We are an extended family made up of two grandparents, three families, and kids ranging from 10 to 17 years old, and for the past ten years, we’ve chosen Alborea Eco Lodge as our summer holiday destination. Every time it confirms our love for it—and every time, it’s hard to leave. Once again this year, the nautical activities were a big hit, especially with the kids, who enthusiastically took part in windsurfing, sailing, and canoeing. The food this year was perhaps the best we’ve had in the past ten years. A sincere thank-you and congratulations to the entire kitchen staff. A special mention goes to the Zurawski Band, whose live music created truly beautiful moments, adding a touch of quality and atmosphere to the already engaging entertainment offered by Bluserena’s amazing Dream Team. The resort staff is impeccable—kind, helpful, and always attentive to guests’ needs, from the reception team to the dining room staff, the bar crew, and the shuttle drivers. A lovely new addition this year was Gianmarco, the photographer, who, with great professionalism and discretion, managed to capture the most beautiful moments of our vacation. We highly recommend taking the time for a personalized photo session with him—a truly special memory to take home. For us, Alborea is much more than just a destination: it’s a tradition, a family ritual, a place where every year we find warm hospitality, nature, comfort, and genuine beauty.

I really enjoyed the food — it offered a good variety, including options for vegan and celiac diets. The staff was very nice, and I’d like to give special mention to the animators and especially the gentleman making pizza on the beach. He was extremely kind and went out of his way to accommodate my sister‑in‑law’s celiac needs. On the downside, I didn’t like the room. It had a strong damp smell, and there was no conditioner available. The quality of the soap and shampoo was very poor and almost impossible to use. The coffee at breakfast was also disappointing — it came from a machine and was horrible. Being in Italy, I was expecting a real espresso.
