Room types

The rooms at Hotel Agave e Ginestra share a few common features: air conditioning, a private bathroom with shower, a wardrobe and a view, which in most cases opens onto the sea as well as the garden or a landmark. Each room type has a private outdoor space, balcony or terrace, designed for enjoying evenings on the island, and several units also have an independent entrance for those who prefer more privacy.

The range includes compact solutions of 16-18 sqm designed for two people, up to the Family Room of 36 sqm, the largest in the property, able to accommodate larger bed configurations. The main differences concern the size and the specific view, while the basic setup — pleasant climate, en-suite bathroom and outdoor outlook — remains consistent across all room types offered.

Location & what to see

Hotel Agave e Ginestra is located in Ventotene, the small volcanic island of the Pontine archipelago, in a residential area just steps from the rocky coves that characterise the coastline. The setting is typical of the island: low houses, narrow alleys and a slow pace of life, far from the mass tourism of the busier resorts on the Tyrrhenian coast.

Cala Nave beach is about 1.3 km away, while Cala Rossano is just over 1.5 km away; the port of Ventotene, the arrival point for ferries from Formia and Naples, is 2.3 km away. For those arriving from the mainland, the nearest airport is Naples Capodichino, about 72 km away as the crow flies, reachable only by ferry or hydrofoil to the island. Nearby, within a couple of kilometres, there are also a few restaurants such as Mast’Aniello and La Terrazza di Mimì.

Ventotene is an ideal destination in spring and summer for those who love snorkelling, diving and canoeing in the clear waters of the marine reserve, as well as hiking along the scenic trails that cross the island and reach the Roman archaeological remains, including the Roman port and the fish farm. The nearby island of Santo Stefano, visible from the coast, can be visited on short boat trips and is known for its former Bourbon prison. In the cooler months the island empties out, offering a more intimate atmosphere appreciated by those seeking peace and quiet.

Cala Nave — One of the island's most popular rocky beaches, ideal for swimming and snorkelling 1,3 km
Cala Rossano — Small cove with clear waters, suited to those who love diving 1,5 km
Mast'Aniello — Local restaurant appreciated for its fresh seafood dishes 1,3 km
La Terrazza di Mimì — Restaurant with a panoramic view of the island's sea 1,4 km
