Relaxing and nice amenities.
Comment from Hotel Management

Dear Maeli,Thank you very much for your review. We are delighted to read that you had a relaxing holiday in our resort, immersed in a 35-hectares park a few steps away from our private and eco-friendly beach. We hope to welcome you back soon to Riva degli Etruschi. Best regards, The Management.

I would not call this a hotel: it is more a holiday camp / bungalow campsite. We were there out of season but some amenities were still open and covid protection in place. Room heating didnt work.

Unbeatable spot but facilities can improve
Posted 24 May 2015
Pros: Amazing location, beautiful beach
Cons: The appearance of the bungalows
Location: If one has a car, there are endless destinations worth driving to.
Let me begin by saying that the location is superb. That stretch of Tuscan beach is second to none in its beauty.
The personnel is nice and discreet. There is a nice, large pool area and a charming spa. We didn't use the restaurants other than one morning for breakfast (very basic and frankly a bit disappointing).
As for the resort: I went there in 1991 to visit my parents and I can honestly say that there have been no noticeable upgrades to the rooms. From the outside, the bungalows are still a rather ugly block of concrete that poses such a striking contrast with the beauty of the landscape. A simply climbing ivy covering the outside walls would make such a difference. I can't speak for the inside of the bungalows because we were in the hotel portion of the resort. The part that I found most annoying was the fact that they charge for internet, which I refused to use. At a time when the smallest coffee shop in a remote area provides free WIFI to its customers, Riva Degli Etruschi, an upscale resort, asked for 3 Euro per hour, or 10 Euro per day (not sure about the numbers). I find it totally ridiculous.

Unexpected IMPRESSIVE FACILITIES
Posted 10 Oct 2014
Pros: Everything
Cons: wireless internet, as always in EUROPE, but not important for the family communication.
We used it just for overnight, in our way to "La Toscana", but we found a "Family Paradise", impressive RESORT, for Families, kids and young teenagers, seaside and tuscany forest, believe me, a worth while stop in your plans for the whole family. Restaurants really nice, rooms and apartments look like just cabins from outside, but very nice and clean inside. We'll come back to stay more days.

Great Famiy Getaway
Posted 31 May 2013
Cons: Not a fan of European breakfast.
Good clean place, not a luxury resort but very appropriate or a family vacation with exceptional value for the money. Reception staff are very friendly, make effort to speak in English slowly so that we understand.
Mariana, a seafood restaurant within the resort offers exceptional dinners with a wide listing of Italian wines and a great crew of staff to serve. They even offer a 10% discount to resort guests. We ate there 3 out of 4 nights.

Warning if booking here via hotels.com
Posted 3 Aug 2011 on HotelsThe night before departure we were contacted by expedia, who aparently manage the bookings for hotels.com to say there was a double booking.
Cheap trick. We paid 100% upfront to avoid this.
We had to stay next door 1st night.
We went in the first morning to cancel our second night. No reply has been received from hotels.com, let alone a 50% refund.
PLEASE TAKE CARE HERE.
