Lovely location in one of the older quarters, but it has to be said Ischia, having been much built on round its coast, has nevertheless retained its charm. For once the new architecture has some sympathy with the old. La Signiora, who lived above the apartment, was very helpful and welcoming. The flat itself was small but self contained and comfortable.

Perhaps the 'welcome pack', which consisted of two bottles of water in the fridge, might have been more inspiring. (Various members of my family have holiday lets, so I know the ropes.) Just remember to pick up what you need from the port before jumping into your taxi, and you'll be fine.
