The old town was built just on top of the cliff: often they organize big diving competition where all participants jump in the water directly from the houses's roof....and it's not rare to see some people jumping from the windows! #BeachTips

We loved our stay at Covo dei Saraceni, the location and views from the hotel are unmatched in the area. Parking was free, easy and a short walk from the hotel. The breakfast buffed was incredible with a huge variety of foods and amazing views from the breakfast room. The room was well kept and clean but slightly older. We booked dinner on the balcony which was the greatest dining experience we’ve ever had!
