Hotel Club Village Maritalia

We liked the location first, it is 2min form the sea and beach. We really enjoyed the show Animators prepared each day for us. I think they are the best thing in this hotel. They are very polite, they have plan and program to make your day useful and fun. They had at 9pm Baby dance for small kids (our daughter loved it!!!) and after that a show for grown ups... We really liked animators there. Food quality was ok, but definitely not a quality food.

So, we didn't like how drinks were served form the bars, so many plastic cups and you couldn't get a bottle because management in hotel says so.....well f the management, they need to listen what clients are asking for. For all-inclusive I would expect to have more offerings for drinks but no.... The hotel itself is nice, it's big but it needs renovation, some parts are dirty and old. Also, getting taxi in Peschici is sometimes very hard and you need to come with a car there, otherwise you will be stuck and can't see city/village center. I haven't seen any public transport there that you can use. The food quality was not that good and drinks for kids are only sparkling drinks such as cola, orange...etc.

The food was delicious! The beach really near - but just note that is not part of the property, the property rents it, so, you are basically leaving the hotel and walk on the street - which is not busy!!So, no need to be scared of kids being hit by car car! But having all-inclusive is on the beach pointless as there is no hotel's bar. The staff was really trying but there were only 2 speaking English, so, if they were not presented, it was difficult to deal with anything.

The bathroom in the rooms would deserve some renovations, the rooms interiors are a bit outdated. You have to buy the swimming caps to go to the pool, which I would expect that 4star hotel would give to their guests for free. The breakfast could last longer /now is till 9:30/. The animation program is only in Italian and nobody really speak English out of the whole group - only 2 young animators when we were there! I would not mind this unless this was said upfront, which was not. But my daughter enjoyed at least dancing before the main animation program. Also to me the worst was that each all-inclusive drink near the pool is given in plastic cups even in the evening when is the pool closed. So, really now where we have in the middle of the ocean plastic island big almost as Europe, I would highly suggest to change this and think about it! The same with the water you are getting 2 waters 0,5l per day for room and it is given in plastic as well. So, just imagine all this plastic waste from all the hotels including this one! And no, I am not being any eco freak but I have kids and want them to be able to enjoy their life.
