Hotel Description
The Location
Newly opened in August 2007, Marulivo sits high on the hill town of
Pisciotta, overlooking the sea. The hotel sits
clinging to a cliff at the edge of of the medieval historic center
(Centro Storico). It's views are quite wonderful - blue
sea, coastal hills, and olive and lemon groves.
Pisciotta has some lovely beaches, all with clear blue seas.
The town also hosts a number of bars and restaurants. It has a
harbor where you can rent boats, go diving and snorkeling.
The wonderful and totally unspoiled coast road connects to a string of
quaint
seaside villages, and a few resort towns.
Note: the roads in the historical centre are too narrow for any
cars, etc; so, the hotel is not suitable for anyone
with walking problems.
The Hotel
Marulivo is a recent restoration of a 13th century convent, and retains
much of the original architecture, but lovingly shaped into fine
boutique hotel. Our photos do not come close to capturing
the essence of Marulivo. It is composed of 9 double
rooms and 2 suites, all wonderfully decorated in a Tuscan motif - see
below. All rooms are fully equipped with heating, air
conditioning, TV, and mini-bars - and fabulous views
(most with sea-views).
The hotel does not have a restaurant; however, just around
the corner is Slow Dreams' favorite restaurant Osteria del Borgo -
a wonderful "hole in the wall" restaurant whose chef Gerardo works
closely with local producers to ensure optimum ingredients.
For example, he has the local fishermen clean their anchovies as they
are caught, they then marinade them in freshly squeezed
juice from local lemons. The chef then simply adds a
few herbs and spices to them - quite delightful. Other dishes
which draw us back week after week are sea food stew, spicy
mussel and clams, and Italy's best spaghetti carbonaro,
and best french fries.
A walk from the hotel on the other side of the hill-town is the
Locanda della Fiume
- with another 11 rooms.
