Has anyone been to Ischia?

Question

I'm going next month just wondered what to expect.

Answer 1

My father's family is originally from there.  My parents went to visit a few years ago and say it was gorgeous, very much like a beautiful tourist type destination with great beaches, cafes, etc.... very clean and pretty.  Enjoy!

Answer 2

I have been. About 2 years ago I spent 3 days in Ischia.

It was beautiful, great beaches, awesome natural beauty. One very large mountain.

I got there via a boat ferry from Naples, which took about 2 hours. I had booked a hostel online, but it turned out to be a fraud, and after a few exhausting hours of taking taxis and walking up the mountain, etc., we just booked another stay at the one hostel in the city, at the top of the mountain. It was nice, clean, with balconies and a great view.

The food was good - There was a homemade pizza place nearby our hostel, and also a very nice restaurant overlooking the sea.

The people were friendly and a large portion of them spoke English. However, it was much less touristy than other parts of Italy, and at times was hard to navigate or communicate.

Have Fun!
