Ischia holiday apartment rentals in Forio with swimming pools and panoramic coastal views
Forio, Island of Ischia, Campania, Italy, Mediterranean Europe - 1 & 2 room holiday apartments to rent, sleeping up to 5 people
Villa Roberto and Villa Olivia are splendid family-run Mediterranean holiday villas providing holiday rentals set on the picturesque hillside above the town of Forio on the west coast of Ischia. All the apartments command beautiful panoramic views of the town, coastline and surrounding countryside, with spectacular sunsets over the sea. In the grounds there is a thermal bathing pool with a water temperature of 38°C and a Jacuzzi, both supplied with natural mineral water from nearby springs.
The pool looks green on account of the high sulphur content of the water. It comes fresh, clean and hot out of the ground every morning.
There are attractive terraces for relaxing and a variety of local vegetation including olive, citrus fruit and palm trees. There is ample car-parking at the villa which is approximately 20 minutes walk from the centre of town and the lovely sandy public beaches where you can hire chairs and umbrellas.
The webmaster has holidayed here and wholeheartedly recommends this rental accommodation. Apart from having a wonderful, relaxing holiday, at the age of 30 he had painful knees. After spending two weeks exploring the island and bathing here in the volcanic pools for a couple of hours a day, he returned and has had no knee pains in a decade. The reputation of these hot volcanic spas as an arthritis cure is justified! It's certainly worth coming for a holiday here before having a knee replacement operation!
This rental accommodation in the Spa town of Fiuggi near Rome also has famous healing waters... notably for dealing with kidney stones.Our apartment is available 2009: Good availability.

The villas are on a hill - the town and beach are a comfortable 10 minute walk and the exercise is good - but a car can be hired.
Further details follow, together with links to other holiday rental apartments and villas in Italy . . . but this place is personally recommended by the webmaster.
Villa Olivia is an attractive, family-run property, situated about 10-15 minutes walk from the centre of the little town of Forio, Ischia's most western resort.
The Villa stands back from the road in a large interesting garden of vines, cacti, olives, citrus fruits, roses and palms. Throughout the summer geraniums and bougainvillaea cascade colour everywhere. Amongst the trees there are two pools, a large outdoor swimming pool and a covered 'thermal' pool filled with natural spring water of between 30°C - 32°C.
The villa is divided up into self-contained studio apartments which sleep 2-3 people. Each apartment has a kitchenette, shower room, and a balcony with sea or mountain view.
'Villa Roberto' is 500 metres away from Villa Olivia. The self-contained apartments are generally larger and of one or two rooms, sleeping from 2-5 people. From the balconies there are beautiful panoramic views of the coast - and magnificent sunsets over the sea. There is a thermal swimming pool and a Whirlpool, set in attractive terraced gardens with olive, lemon and palm trees, vines, bougainvillaea, oleanders, and many other plants. Private parking.

The Island of Ischia:
Ischia is also renowned for its exceptionally
mild climate and therapeutic springs as well as its flora. Formed almost exclusively of
volcanic rock, Ischia is the largest island in the Bay of Naples,
with sandy beaches, crystal clear sea and wooded mountainsides.
The island bus service is good, with
frequent buses to all the main points of interest. Car-hire is
reasonably priced and the characteristic little Microtaxis are
plentiful. Car hire provides an easy way for exploration and walkers enjoy coastal paths or the rugged terrain of Monte
Epomeo which is 789 metres high. The Aragonese
Castle at Ischia Ponte, the archaeological Museum at Lacco Ameno and
other interesting historical sites provide a background of interesting cultural stimuli.
Although the Isle of Capri and
the Sorrentine peninsular are more famous, Ischia has particular delights. One particular local
attraction is the spectacular and exotic garden 'La Mortella' garden created by Lady Walton, wife of the famous English composer William Walton, with the help of the celebrated
landscape architect Russell Page. Summer visitors to the garden from
can enjoy free classical concerts.
Forio:Forio is the largest town on the island, full of interesting
shops, excellent restaurants and numerous pavement cafés where ice cream is a particular attraction.
There is a daily market and several good bookshops - Henrik Ibsen, W H Auden and other famous authors spent
much time here. The town has a
picturesque harbour and you can
catch a hydrofoil to Naples or round-the-island pleasure trips.
Adjacent to the harbour are the beautiful beaches of Chiaia and San
Francesco with crystal clear water and pale sand.
Beyond Ischia: There is plenty to see on the island, but it makes a good base from which to see the islands of Capri and Procida, or to spend a day on the mainland at Naples, Herculaneum, Pompeii, Vesuvius or Sorrento. There are regular ferries and hydrofoils to most places from Ischia Porto, a limited service from Casamicciola, and several hydrofoils daily from Forio to Naples.
