    “Aquatio is a beautiful property, exactly as shown in the pictures. The authentic cave rooms, combined with contemporary furnishings, create a truly unique and stylish atmosphere. The location is fantastic, perfect for exploring the historic heart of Matera. Everything was spotlessly clean and beautifully maintained. The staff were exceptionally kind and attentive. As we had to leave very early in the morning, the lovely lady at reception thoughtfully offered to prepare a takeaway breakfast for us. Such a nice and caring gesture! We were traveling by car and received very clear and helpful parking instructions in advance. The taxi transfer from the parking area to the hotel was also perfectly arranged, making our arrival smooth and stress-free.”
