Words can't describe the incredible experience we had here but I'll try :) Villa Magdalena is one of those once in a lifetime properties combined with exceptional service that creates an unforgettable experience. We chose Villa Magdalena over a different property because of the high level of personalized service other reviewers talked about, and we absolutely made the right decision. We are so grateful for the VM team, esp Konstantino & Maria, for taking great care of us. They not only made us feel welcome and catered to our needs, but they offered suggestions based on their lived experience that really enriched our holiday. Some specifics to highlight: - The views of the island from the property are incredible. And they are all accessible because the property is so open! - There are only 3 rooms here which means a lot of privacy and quiet. We found that Ischia could feel congested during high season, and Villa Magdalena provided a wonderfully calm setting. - Breakfast was wonderful. A wide variety of local foods was offered in a relaxed, low pressure environment. We aren't normally breakfast eaters but we looked forward to this ritual each morning. - We cannot say enough about Konstantin's attention to detail and responsiveness. His many years of expertise in the hospitality industry absolutely shows! If it's your first time on Ischia and/or you enjoy a highly individualized & intimate experience don't hesitate to book Villa Magdalena. We will absolutely be back!

Just one thing could have made our stay more delightful than it already was - the mattress and quality of linens could be updated. (I will say we have high expectations for these as personal preference.) I noticed other travelers would have liked an afternoon aperitivo or snack provided but we really enjoyed making our own & didn't think it was necessary.

The villa was absolutely stunning and felt like a real home. It’s 5 mins out of Forio so you need transport, they have parking onsite. The view is amazing with some beautiful sunsets. Costantino and family were super responsive on WhatsApp with any queries. Breakfast was extensive. the room was very large including the bathroom. Honestly the photos don’t do it justice. Stunning, we would stay again if we returned to Ischia.

Not sure if air conditioning was working or not.

I highly recommend Villa Magadalena for your luxurious stay in Ischia. The grounds, the management and the staff exceeded expectations, every time and everywhere. Constantino, Carla and Mateo were always extremely helpful and considerate. Their discreet yet attentive demeanor matches the tranquility and attention to detail that this beautiful property enjoys. We departed just a day ago and already can't wait to return. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Breakfast was lovely, and Konstantin was wonderful and very helpful!

oasis with large swimming pool on an island which is tightly packed with very narrow streets. there’s also a volcanic warm water shower next to pool which provides a great therapeutic massage. no need to pay for a spa experience elsewhere. the large grounds were well maintained with a fabulous garden. the interior and exterior design was true Mediterranean Villa style. the Host Constantin was extremely helpful and provided a 6 star service with extreme attention to every detail. we had the pool junior suite which was set as a private retreat. Great ocean outlook with a deck overlooking the ocean sunset for romantic evening cocktails. it was so relaxing we only went out for dinner and some sightseeing. only two other rooms so it feels like your own private Villa experience. breakfast was excellent in open courtyard with multiple offerings for all tastes, food was of the best quality and fresh coffee made with a personal touch. even provided a breakfast picnic when we had to leave early. The service was simply faultless. definitely value and service well above our expectations.

nothing. everything was immaculate

The suite was huge . The decor & gardens are beautiful . The view is lovely & it’s a great spot to watch the sun set. Its a very peaceful, relaxing property. The staff are very attentive without being intrusive.

No tea/ coffee facilities in the room . Some kind of lunch option , even just an antipasto board to pre order ( we had a 6am flight & we’re tired & hungry on arrival ) would have been much appreciated and one day we spent all day at the villa due to bad weather so good in the day would have been good . The bed was very firm & not sure our backs could have stood another night. A topper would be an option . The water wasn’t warm enough to enjoy the lovely bath. Ice in bedroom & a more extensive mini bar or room service would have been good. Just some fine tuning to be absolute perfection

The breakfast was really nice.

The view from the villa was magnificent, but the location was unfortunately not very great since it was quite hard to walk down to the beach/restaurants considering the very smal roads (and the villa is located up on a hill), we had to take a cab back and fourth and it was pretty expensive - although it only was a 5-10 minutes car ride. Next tips: rent a scooter or similar! :)

Fantastic place and staff. Really worth a visit.

Remember to bring some sort of transportation (car or scooter). It is a bit annoying to have to keep using the busses. The place could offer e-bikes etc for rental/free use. Due to the size of the place, they do not offer food etc (but they will help you in ordering food delivered to the place). They do order some drinks, but it is not really clear what is offered. That is a bit of a shame, as you really only want to stay at the house and relax and enjoy your vacation. It is really a nice establishment.
