The friendly staff at the Gallia Palace is attentive to one's every need and request. The hotel bespeaks elegant luxury. The breakfast is sumptuous. The beach is completely sandy--no pebbles, much less rocks--and well manicured. There is nothing not to like.

I recommend this hotel for a relaxing and active holiday. They provide a nice gym and some water sport facilities. There’s a beautiful golf court close by. I strongly recommend to try the restaurant and the bar for a tasty experience! The staff is very professional, they make you feel pampered and leave nothing to chance. Francesco and his team of bartenders are creative and prepare fabulous cocktails with fresh raw materials. Let them advise you. They have some very special "signature" proposals and the cocktails are accompanied by a rich assortment of delicious snacks at aperitif time. The Bellini deserves a big shout-out but the list of cocktails is long and satisfies all preferences. The restaurant deserves also a special note of merit, because the menu is very interesting and the dishes are tasty and proposed in a creative and scenographic way. Ask the maître for any advice. At the SPA I had Roberta's massages, an expert in the Renata França method, which I highly recommend. There are promotions at off-peak times. It’s been a fantastic week. I’ll surely come back.

We really enjoyed our time at this property. The restaurants and private beach are the strongest assets. The staff at the restaurant did a great job. The only con is the lack of information on timing and pricing. It’s not clear when each restaurant is open and how what the pricing felt random. We paid more when ordering less at the restaurant.

The best thing about the place is the staff, the pool and the shuttlebus. You almost feel that the service is personalized. This place has it all - charm, sophistication, unique space and great service. Would stay here again. The hotel have a good beach bar restaurant with good food and lovely staff.

The Gallia Palace is a beautiful hotel and the service was phenomenal. The only issue was on follow-on prices - the beach access and dinner were both quite pricey.

This is an excellent 5 star hotel. Beautiful rooms, pool and grounds. All staff are very attentive. Good range and quality of food buffet breakfast. Buggy / minivan transfer available to beach (5 mins) which is wonderfully clean and sandy with deck chairs, sun beds and umbrellas ready for guests. Changing huts also available. Attentive life guard on duty throughout the day. Kayaks and pedalos are also available. The hotel beach-restaurant serves a wonderful array of food from pizzas to buffet with grilled fish. Wonderful puddings. We didn't eat at the hotel restaurant in the evening and found a particularly good local restaurant in the nearby urbanisation. We also explored the port area but there is little there to entice you back. The price reflects its 5 star billing; that said, we booked well in advance and got a very good deal for a stay in the middle of August.

Disappointing experience, staff often rude and acting as if they are paying you to stay there and not the other way around. A can do attitude is absent and simple requests rejected, such as a wish to order from the hotel restaurant menu and have that brought up to the room instead of having to order from the in-room menu. No, is not an answer you expect when staying in a 5 star hotel. Furthermore hotel policies, such as no ordering from the hotel restaurant to your room, should be disclosed upon arrival. An attitude of superiority and plain snobbery is not what you expect from staff. The room was ok, but you also do not expect two single beds pushed together to make a queen sized bed! Anyway, so much attitude but little delivered.

Punta Ala is an ideal venue for a coastal vacation with all the facilities which might reasonably be expected, but with the added benefit of being within easy driving distance of some of the most remarkable hilltop towns in Italy. It would be difficult to find fault in the hotel facilities, but it is only right to particularly note the key highlights of the hotel, which includes the extremely diligent, helpful and attentive staff, high standard of the food offer and the relaxation afforded by all the Public Areas, such as the piano bar, pool terraces and gardens. We will return.
