Lunezia Resort

In all of our trip to Italy, this was the only place that matched my imagination of what I expected of Italy. The road into this place was 2 or 3 klm from La Spezia, however, it felt like it was hundreds of miles away due to it's tiny little windy roads to get there. Not much signage, or internet reception, so I recommend that you download your maps before your head up the road. Once you get there, you realise that you won't be heading back into town until tomorrow. So, be prepared to stay the night. Go get some provisions, and spend the night in. There is some pasta, sauces, wine, soft drinks, and some minor things to purchase at the office. We did this as we weren't prepared. We went with a bunch of people, and we ended up cooking in and having a few drinks. Waking up in the morning was spectacular. Just what I imagine Italy to be. Looking out over the valley was amazing. Such a beautiful aspect. A great swimming pool. Noone around. Peaceful. Loved it.

The facility was opened in 2005 after being rebuilt, and was operated intermittently until around 2015. Since then, it has fallen into disrepair. It's a shame about this retreat, situated in absolute peace and with a fantastic panoramic view.

This hotel is very pleasant. Upon arrival, we found a very clean room with all the necessary amenities; there's even a small outdoor area with a table and chairs for each room. The location is very peaceful, ideal for relaxation, and there's also a large swimming pool. Although the hotel is a little outside the town, it's still well-situated for exploring the region. The owner is incredibly friendly. I'm keeping the address; we'll definitely return.
