Our favourite rooms
If you like outdoor space, you’ll love the penthouse, which has a surplus of four terraces. Otherwise, pick your favourite wall colour (terracotta, sage, dusky blue) and select your floor accordingly.
Poolside
There’s no pool, but the Isolotto beach club is minutes away.
Spa
Massages can be arranged at the beach or elsewhere (within reason, and common decency) within La Roqqa.
Packing tips
Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi and then Donna (Versace).
Also
If you can’t locate your television, look a little more closely at the mirror (did you really think they’d let an unsightly black box spoil the aesthetics?).

Children
All ages are welcome and there are connecting and multi-room options for families. Babysitting can be arranged with 24 hours’ notice for €50 an hour.
Sustainability efforts
La Roqqa has used mostly Italian brands and suppliers, including bath products from Ortigia in Sicily, and seasonal, local produce. The beach-club shuttles are electric, there’s no plastic (each room has refillable aluminium bottles instead) and air-conditioning automatically cuts out when you open a window. The hotel has also partnered with a local NGO to help disabled people work.
