Bonifati Hotels

"What a lovely hotel with a ton of character! Located at the end of the 'beach strip', it was nice and quiet, with an amazing view of the town, the beach and the coastline. Our room was comfortable, and our view from the balcony was 10 out of 10. There was a mini-fridge in the room stocked with water, but for some reason, guests are not allowed to store their own food or drinks inside (penalty is 5 euros/day) - we found this strange? The staff were super friendly and helpful. Buffet breakfast was really good - and the eating area had floor to ceiling windows with views of the beach. The pool was nice, warm and clean. Great location, just a 10-minute walk to shopping and restaurants. On Monday morning, there is an open market in the city center that was a lot of fun to visit! Staying at Scalea was definitely one of the highlights of our Italy trip - it was beautiful, quiet, and resort-like. We really enjoyed staying at the Grand Hotel De Rose and hope to stay there again."

"Clean property, comfortable. Fantastic view from small balcony. A/C unit works well. Access to beach is challenging, steep and uneven. No beach chairs or umbrellas. Property not far from city center, with shopping and restaurants. Ask for unit number when you arrive for efficient check-in."

"This place is GREAT. The owner is very helpful and accommodating. Very nice breakfast. Great central location in the heart of the action but the rooms are still quiet. "

"We received a very warm welcome and assistance for parking my car and took our luggage from the car to our room. The room was outstanding clean and the largest room in our month long stay in Italy. It is a true castle we felt like a king and queen. "

"Excellent stay. Vittorio is a wonderful host. It felt as though we were staying with family. He is very accommodating and accessible when needed. The B&B is super clean and comfortable. Breakfast has both sweet and savory options. The beach is across the street with plenty of restaurants and facilities. I would go back. "

"We had such a great time at this place! The house was super clean—everything felt fresh and tidy, which made it easy to settle in and just relax. The pool was amazing. It was sparkling and perfect for lounging, swimming & soaking up the sun. Our kids had a blast in it. The owner was awesome—really responsive and on top of things. Anytime we had a question or needed something, they got back to us quickly and were genuinely helpful. It felt like they really cared about making our stay smooth and enjoyable.Definitely recommend, and we’d love to come back sometime!"

"A true Gem. Beautiful place, great food, great staff."

"Peace, calmness, and enjoyment. "
