First the good stuff. This is a beautiful hotel, with lovely gardens, and all built from that gorgeous gleaming white Brac stone which dazzles in the sunshine. It sits bang next to the harbour, and everything is within walking distance. Pucisca itself is a delight. Breakfasts are superb, taken on the terrace in our case, and with a fantastic selection of yummy stuff - part waitress service for eggy things, part a buffet groaning with goodies in the elegant downstairs restaurant. The staff are one and all polite and welcoming and will go out of their way to help and accommodate your needs. There's also a very useful parking spot right opposite the entrance. Two things only impacted our experience negatively. One - which the hotel is not responsible for - are the bells which clang out from the church right next to the hotel. The clanging is certainly picturesque, but you have to ask yourself if that's OK for you at 6 am when they start with a two-minute wake-up peal, clanging every hour from then on and ending at midnight. For me, a light sleeper, it was a problem. Others will take a different view. But the bells won't be going away anytime soon. The hotel did try their very best by putting us in a room which was as far from the campanile as possible, but maybe I'm just too light a sleeper because it made little difference. The other issue - again very subjective - is the music which is pumped put of speakers all over the gardens and the swimming pool area. The volume is not too loud, but the music is (almost) always there, usually a relentless cacophony of love songs which I found disturbed the peace and quiet and bird chatter and all the other good stuff that you naturally find in such a lovely garden. I wish they'd just turn it off. I did ask - and they did, briefly, at breakfast, but sure enough it wasn't too long before it was back. To me this non-stop background noise cheapens the hotel and makes it feel more of a resort rather than what it truly is and, more to the point, what it could so easily be - an oasis of delight to soothe and restore the soul.
