Seafront hotel in Abruzzi

Some recurring questions

Why Family Village Hotel?
Il Doge was originally established as a classic 3-star hotel on the Adriatic coast, and that remains its essence to this day. Over the years, however, we have added spaces and services typical of a holiday village specializing in welcoming children, to make our guests’ experience more complete and enjoyable.

Do children eat with their parents or can they stay with the entertainers for lunch and dinner?
Our “children” have grown up now but we well remember how difficult it was to keep them calm during meals. We’re not very keen on the idea of separate meals because even children who are used to eating at nursery or school would end up spending a week eating nothing but burgers, pizzas and chips. So we prefer to offer a speedy service at the table so they don’t get bored, giving the little whirlwinds placemats and crayons to keep them busy.

From what age can children take part in the mini-club?
There’s no fixed age. There are children aged 2 who are used to going to nursery and who get on perfectly well with other children while there are others at the age of 4 who are so timid that even the friendliest entertainers struggle to get them to take part. In any case, the presence of an adult nearby is required for very young children, who might feel bewildered, at least in the first days.

How can I get an Oleandro or Geranio room with a sea view?
Most of the rooms of this type enjoy sea views. Between them and the beach, there are around thirty metres of pine forest and the trees block the view of the sea from the first , second and third floors. With the Acquamarina package, the sea view is guaranteed, if you arrive at weekends. However, those who don’t intend to take advantage of this package can, in any event, tell us their preferences and, as long as one is available, we'll be happy to reserve a room with those features. Our Oleandro and Geranio rooms are on the sides of the hotel on the six floors.

Why do you have to pay to hire bicycles?
We make a small charge for hiring bikes, 1 euro an hour, in order to give all our guests the chance to make use of them. The truth is that it can happen that someone, especially teenagers (what it is to be young!), don't hand back the keys at the end of their ride. So when guests ask to use the parked bikes, we have to say no and that's a real shame. We have a sizeable number of bicycles for children and adults, including with child seats, always in excellent condition thanks to careful maintenance, perfect for enjoying the cycle track that runs along the coast.

In which parts of the hotel can I take my dog?
Four-legged friends that don’t create disturbances are welcome at the Doge, they can sleep in the rooms and stay in the hall and garden. We ask that dogs are not taken into the dining or breakfast rooms. We have a few tables outside the restaurant where dogs can stay with their owners; however, it may be very hot during lunchtime, and in case of severe weather, it might not be possible to use them. Dogs are tolerated on the beach if kept on a lead and under the beach umbrella. Please avoid the pool areas and the children playgrounds. 
Pets are welcome at the Doge

Where can I park?
For guests who choose the "Beach & Fun" option, we offer free parking in one of our four outdoor parking areas, available from 11 a.m. on the day of arrival until 10 a.m. on the day of departure, without reservation and subject to availability. Three of these parking areas are adjacent to the hotel, while one is 250 meters away. Alternatively, you can reserve a designated space in our underground garage for an additional €10.00 per day. Guests choosing the "Residence" option without Beach & Fun services can also add an unassigned space in one of the surface parking areas. During the low season, street parking near the hotel is easy to find; in mid and high season, it may require a bit more patience. Paid parking is also available along the seafront (around €10.00 per day), easily manageable through the Easypark app.
