The rooms, all with private bathroom, air conditioning and soundproofing, look out over different scenes between sea, mountain and historic centre, offering a versatile base for those visiting the coast of the Gulf of Gaeta.

The rooms are equipped with a flat-screen TV with streaming services, minibar, refrigerator and electric kettle, designed to make a stay of several days easier to manage independently. Several room types feature a balcony or private terrace with sea view, ideal for those seeking a more intimate setting than the standard room.

Plan your stay at Altavilla

Bed and breakfast in Gaeta with sea view, terrace and garden, a few steps from Serapo Beach and the historic centre.

Room types

The rooms at Altavilla share some basic features that make the stay comfortable across all room types: private bathroom with bidet, air conditioning, soundproofing, flat-screen TV with streaming services and minibar. Room sizes range from 14 to 18 m², with extra-large double beds as the common base, while the Deluxe Double Room with Balcony and Sea View also adds a sofa bed to accommodate more guests.

What sets the different room types apart are mainly the views and outdoor spaces: some rooms have a balcony or terrace facing the sea, while the Standard Double Room, the most compact in the range, does not have a private outdoor space. The two Deluxe variants, although similar in amenities, differ slightly in size and name, both still offering direct access to the view over the Gulf of Gaeta, an element that strongly characterises the experience at this property.
