A very nice property right on the beach. The staff are very friendly and helpful and a very nice breakfast was included. Rental of umbrella and two beach chairs was a little steep at 15 euros, but, hey, it's a touristy location. We really enjoyed it. Only down side was driving downtown. Drivers are crazy!

La chambre "économique" que nous avions disposait d'une fenêtre donnant sur un mur : nous étions obligés d'avoir un éclairage en permanence. De plus, la salle de bain avait un tout petit miroir, difficile d'accès si on est de petite taille.

Great family business, super friendly and these guys all went out of their way to make this a memorable trip, even driving us out of Palmi to take us to a neighbouring town. Would definitely recommend. Onsite meals were a bonus. We had a ball so, we’ll definitely be back. Thank you Gino, Svetlana, Michel, Luciano and Fam. xx
