Beautiful location with private beach. The beach is a little coarse and there are rocks in the ocean, but it was really nice. The pool and pool deck were great. Breakfast was good. Lunch and dinner menus were mediocre. Overall very happy with our stay.
Nice hotel stayed one night and was nice to feel on holidays
Beach pool and amazing sunset

A very enjoyable stay in a beautiful environment. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Hotel could benefit from more stock including small food provisions in the boutique. The room would benefit from a kettle and more effective air conditioning.
10/10 exceeded expectations. Room was amazing with a private plunge pool on the deck. The views are amazing and the restaurants are very well done on the ocean. Clean and felt like a Hawaii oasis
Property and service is wonderful. Little bit outside of town. Property has lots of amenities and activities like free kids club, restaurants etc that makes the stay very relaxing and enjoyable. Gunrud at the reception desk and Valeria at the boat rental desk was very helpful. Nothing much to do around the property itself. City of Tropea is a 10/15min drive. Lots of activity and dining options there.
Beautiful gardens and beach. Plenty of free parking. The road down to the resort is not as steep and winding as for other places making for easier access. Lots of families with kids, kids club, playground. The rooms are clean and have the basics, but the standard room is very small so, if you can afford it, it would be worth to upgrade. The dinner options were too fancy for our tastes, but there are many restaurants nearby with the closest being about 3 minutes by car. We would love to return soon.
The property itself is gorgeous. The only downsides are 1. food on resort is a bit of a miss (not enough simple, local dishes in favor of fancy over-the-top dishes ) although breakfast was lovely and 2 you have to have a car to get to Tropea as the resort is isolated and there is not much to do in terms of activities or entertainment. If the weather is nice, you are in for a treat because their beach staff is impeccable and their grounds are breathtaking.
Great property for families! Staff and hotel is very accommodating. Baby bathtubs, bibs, cutlery, cups, etc. could you more seating around the pool as it was often slim pickings. Grounds were beautiful, very well maintained, and the sunsets, unreal!
Excellent but excellent place! Pictures can’t describe the beauty of it! The Resort is amazing, staff amazing, food amazing … wish the food could have been served also after 9:30 pm… I would give this place over 5 stars if I could have.
Upon arrival my disappointment began. Every amenity and request for service was a struggle to achieve and a struggle to receive.
Our room had major flaws of arrangement for example the toilet had mere inches between the knees upon sitting and the counter. I had to sit sideways on it to use it. Also the shower floor in an effort to look “cool” was terribly uncomfortable to stand on. We requested pool towels mid day and were told sorry we are out try tomorrow. The list goes on and on.
The kitchen is open only for a short time and there is no food available in between. If guests don’t make a dinner reservation at the only dinner place you may not get fed until morning. It’s against the rules for the bar to sell a bottle of water unless the kitchen is open even though they sell alcohol the whole time.
Schönes Hotel, direkt am Strand beim Check könnten noch etwas mehr Informationen gegeben werden über den Ablauf des Aufenthalts das Essen im Hotel und leider war genau an unserem Anreisetag der frischgepressten Orangensaft nicht mehr verfügbar
Esperienza bellissima: personale gentilissimo, tante opzioni vegane ad ogni pasto, piscina e spiaggia attrezzati e particolare attenzione per i bambini. In foto la vista dalla piscina.10 e lode
Excelente hotel! Localizado em uma bela praia, com estrutura de praia completa para os hóspedes, localiza-se a meio caminho entre Capo Vaticano e Tropea. Tem estacionamento gratuito. Quartos amplos e limpos. Café da manhã e jantar incluídos, sendo o jantar excelente. Recomendo fortemente.
Ankunft war nett. Leider gibt es keine Infos zu den Restaurant. Wann hat welches geöffnet. Wann gibt es Frühstück. Für Mittag soll man reservieren. Macht aber keiner.
Sauberkeit war in Ordnung. Pool und Strand sind super.
Personal eher weniger hilfsbereit. Könnte besser sein. Snack Karte und Kindersitze musst Elan extra darauf hinweisen das man sie ausgehändigt bekommt.
Ansonsten schönes Hotel.
Hôtel en bord de plage !! Avec un jardin extraordinaire tropical très bien entretenu jolie fleurs hibiscus bananier très bon petit déjeuner
Bon resto équipe sympa belle chambre petite maison belle piscine résumé hôtel excellent je recommande sauf plage de sable mais pour rentrer galet avec chaussures ça va bien
Tolles Service. Das Hotel achtet sehr auf Details. Und das Personell ist ausschließlich Italienisch. Das Essen ist fantastisch! Und die Location wunderbar!
Das Resort ist fantastisch und allen Menschen, die es mit ihrer täglichen Arbeit zu einem so wunderbaren Ort machen, gebührt unser größter Dank.
Es gibt überhaupt gar nix was zu kritisieren wäre.
Ganz große Klasse.
La struttura e’ molto bella: giardini curati, piscina e ristorante con affaccio sul mare, spiaggia privata, camere molto moderne, pulite e confortevoli.
L’unico neo e’ l assenza di animazione.

Kleider aufhängen konnte man nur draussen. Fast kein Platz für t shirts und blusen.
Der Innenarchitekt war wohl vom Mars. Aber abgesehen davon waren wir zufrieden.
