What we've verified
The gardens are calm for a short lead walk, and the Villa Comunale gardens and Corso Umberto are minutes away on foot. Access is town stairs and steep lanes rather than flat seafront, and the cable car down to Mazzarò and Isola Bella beach is about a kilometre away.
One dog under 10 kg, not in plunge-pool or jet-tub suites and never left unattended.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
EUR 150, Per pet per day
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs allowed in most rooms but not suites with plunge pools or jet tubs, and not in the dining outlets. Kept on a lead everywhere on property except the room. Hotel closes mid-November to early March.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
