Il Palazzetto Ponza is a guest house located on the island of Ponza, in Lazio, just 400 metres from Giancos Beach and 1.5 km from the harbour. The property features a panoramic terrace, entirely non-smoking premises and free WiFi throughout the common areas and rooms.
The six room types, including a Junior Suite with a separate sitting area, all share a private bathroom with toiletries, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a coffee machine; many open onto balconies with sea or garden views. The spaces range from 25 to 50 square metres, suited to both couples and more exclusive stays.
In the morning a continental, Italian, vegetarian or gluten-free breakfast is served, either buffet-style or à la carte. The location just steps from the centre of Ponza, near restaurants such as La Locanda dell’Isola and La Palma at 150 metres, makes the property a landmark for those visiting the island. Recent guests have rated the location 9.1, while cleanliness and service have received top scores.
Il Palazzetto Ponza offers six room types, from the Double Room with Terrace to the larger Junior Suite with Garden View, the latter being the only one with a separate sitting area and sofa bed in addition to the double bed. All rooms are air-conditioned and feature a private bathroom with shower, toiletries and bidet, a flat-screen TV and an in-room coffee machine, as well as bed linen and towels provided by the property.
Room sizes range from 25 sqm for the standard double rooms to 30 sqm for the more spacious version, up to 50 sqm for the suite. Most rooms open onto a balcony with sea view, while two units face the inner garden. Each room accommodates a maximum of two guests, making the property a choice geared mainly towards couples seeking peace and privacy on the island.

Il Palazzetto Ponza offers guests a panoramic terrace and daily housekeeping, along with private check-in and check-out designed to ensure privacy from the moment of arrival. The property, reserved exclusively for adults, is entirely non-smoking and provides luggage storage and heating for off-season stays.
Every room is air-conditioned and equipped with a flat-screen TV and internet connection, as well as a private bathroom with toilet, bidet, shower, hairdryer and complimentary bath products. Bed linen and towels are provided, as well as a wardrobe, refrigerator, sofa and coffee machine, details that make every room self-sufficient and comfortable for the entire stay on the island of Ponza.
Il Palazzetto Ponza is located along Via Montagna S. Maria, in one of the most characteristic areas of the island of Ponza, among panoramic terraces and alleys sloping down towards the sea. The property itself has a terrace overlooking the white rooftops typical of Ponza’s architecture, and its position, set back from the harbour but still within walking distance, allows guests to enjoy a peaceful setting without giving up proximity to the island’s main points of interest.
The port of Ponza, the arrival point for ferries and hydrofoils from Formia and Anzio, is about 1.5 km from the property, while Rome Ciampino Airport is 145 km away, for those arriving by ferry after a flight. Giancos Beach is just 400 metres away, Sant’Antonio Beach is 600 metres away, and the restaurants are just a short walk down: La Locanda dell’Isola and La Palma are both about 150 metres away, ideal for a seafood dinner after a day at the beach.
In summer the island is lived mostly on the water: Cala Feola, about 2.1 km away, is one of Ponza’s most photographed coves, with natural pools carved into the white rock, while those who enjoy hiking can reach Forte Papa, an old Bourbon-era fortification 2.9 km away, for a view over the archipelago. In the cooler months, the area is instead suited to walks along the coastal paths, among sea stacks and coves reachable only on foot or by boat, away from the mass tourism that characterises the island during the peak summer months.
