We had a very relaxing two night stay. We enjoyed a meal the first evening at the hotel restaurant. Great service and delicious food! I mentioned it was our anniversary trip and they surprised us with a cake for dessert. Also, they are knowledgeable about gluten free requirements and provide gluten free bread upon request. The hotel provides a shuttle to their private beach(not many gluten free food options at the beach snack bar but I was able to get a salad) and also into the town upon request for a small fee. The fee was definitely worth it. The room was basic but comfortable and had a balcony with a view of the ocean. We will stay here again if we are ever able to return to this beautiful town.

Hotel staff was amazing, especially the new manager. Everything was clean. Beautiful views. Very impressed. Need a car in Maratea.

Old hotel but clean. The reception is grandiose but the rooms are old and basic. Some apparati in the room are so old that they aren't even functional. Figuring out the old air conditioning controls is not obvious. Nonetheless, the room was comfortable. Periodic shuttles to a clean pebble beach was a plus. Nice breakfast. Evening food is so-so, not high quality Italian by any means. Big problem was we paid for a sea view, were not provided one and when we noticed, we were told that there were none available, meaning that our room had been allocated to someone else. A hotel that loses room reservations: not a good sign. The next day, we were moved to another room with sea view but which had less amenities (even though it was slated to be a "superior room"). Management gave us an inexpensive bottle of Asti and some old soft biscotti to compensate, which I personally found to be insulting because they probably figured that dumb tourists wouldn't know the difference. So it was disappointing to say the least.

Worst service in the hotel restaurant we have ever had. Room was ok but the WiFi was worthless and the staff did nothing to improve it. View was lovely. Lots of families with small children. Very noisy even in the room. Very dated decor and furnishings.

Amazing view and Very friendly staff. Always smile and help in the frontdesk from Massimo and from Roberto in the restaurant and the nice Girl in the poolbar. We really enjoyed our time there.

Disturbed by local weddings, the swimming pool was closed early for the banquet... The pool was the only modern touch of this resort. The rest of the facilities including the rooms are very outdated and poorly maintained. Location remains the only reason to stay close to the status of Christ the Redeemer of Maratea.

Comfortable stay the staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast wonderful

The pool was great, the view was incredible. The rooms were ok, the were dayed but in good condition and very clean. We had wifi issues but were resolved. Most of the staff was friendly and helpful.

I stayed here five days-- it was strange in that we were almost the only guests in the very large hotel resort. So, we got really special treatment and didn't need to wait for anything. And we got to know the staff which is always rewarding. The view of the ocean and the Christ redeemer statue was awesome. Food was good-- although I'm afraid a lot of food was wasted as they still offered us full menus. The hotel is a drive away from the towns, so you need a car to go anywhere. All in all, very charming.

Great location, amazing views, very nice facilities

First of all, we were struck by the beauty of the surroundings, and the whole concept of the hotel. The view from our balcony( and from most if not all the rooms) is amazing, the sea down below looks like a picture from a fairy tale.The staff was very amiable and helpful, breakfast was great, although we stayed there towards the end of the season.A wonderful experience indeed.

Disappointed that what should have been a wonderful view from the balcony was totally obscured by overgrown bushes. Apart from that the hotel was well appointed and the restaurant was good

We stayed one week. Will list some good and bad..The good is the breakfast. Awesome and fresh and local selection and the staff is always willing to accommodate you, great service and people.The beach is awesome, the staff there is awesome too and the snacks. The towels and chairs are free and so is the shuttle so if you don’t speak Italian make sure you insist as my husband doesn’t speak and when he asked they said it was 3 euros a person. The parking at the bottom is also free, there are some men (not young) who try to take your money, beware.Cons, hotel to beach is 10 min by car. The hotel is old and rundown. Insects as in grasshoppers are up to 4 inches long, a few in the room. The first floor is where you have them and it’s the most run down floor. The maids are very good. The beds are not real beds or of very poor quality, they are low and creaky, my back and neck still hurt. The shower head was very slow to pass water.Parking is free, resort of a very past theme buy nice. Very nice and clean pool.

nice hotel, but rooms should be restructured

We decided at the last minute to have a family getaway for my wife's birthday. We booked a suite at Grand Resort Hotel Pianetamaratea that morning and arrived that afternoon. The staff was instantly welcoming. My little kids enjoyed the space of the hotel and the suite after the long car ride. I told the staff at check in it was my wife's birthday and I wanted to do something at dinner. They told me they got it. At the restaurant during desert the staff brought out a cake, sang happy birthday and made the moment special. The rest of the stay the staff ensure to wish my wife happy birthday. Additionally at breakfast the staff happily greeted my family. The room was clean and spacious. The kids had a room, the parents had there own, everyone enjoyed the amazing view. I highly recommend this diamond in the rough. There are local beaches, shopping for souvenirs, and restaurants in the area. A++

Nice Hotel near the statue and 15 minute shuttle from one of the best beaches of Marina di Maratea (all inclusive). My advice is absolutely to spent time here, in which you can have a great sight from the pool, the sunset is wonderful ! the stay was good, some things could be better (animations, beds) but are details... the only part that i could've like more was the breakfast, rich and various but not so good as i could excepted from a GRAND HOTEL... Didn't try menu a la carte, but didn't hear great comments too...

Pianetamaratea is situated in a wonderful site close to Maratea. From here it's possible to see Policastro's gulf,the top of the mountain where Redentore statue is and wonderful sunsets. Seaside is not close to the hotel but it's possible to reach it with a hotel bus in 10'. Beach is small but sea is very Clean and beautiful. Here You can eat very good dishes of italian tradition cooking especially fish and other specialities.

Staff is friendly, but doesn't speak other languages (English, Portuguese or Spanish) fluently, which made communicating in Italian ever more important.

Ants crawling all over the floor and no tea making facilities. Also I requested an early morning call to catch a flight in Naples and breakfast to room .staff forgot both

had a beautiful room with a lovely view of the coast and of the Christ Statue.
