Sweetsea is a small stay in Castellabate, Italy, positioned on Via Piscicolo 3 and a short walk from the nearest beach, about 200 metres away. Rooms are air-conditioned and fitted with a flat-screen TV, while each has a private bathroom with shower, bath robes, a hair dryer, and courtesy kit, which helps make short stays feel complete. Heating is also available, and the property includes a terrace and garden for quiet time between outings.
