Praia a Mare Hotel Guide - Sanctuary of the Madonna Della Grotta hotels in Praia a Mare, Italy.

"The property was great. Our room has beautiful view to the sea. Walking 2 minutes from our is amazing private beach. We enjoy our stay on our trip from Palermo to Rome."

"This is a very lovely hotel on a hill with scenic views of the ocean. The staff is friendly and helpful, the pool is very nice and the breakfast is good. They will also park your car for you. You can walk into town for dinner or shopping. "

"Modern, clean hotel with excellent service. Comfortable, large rooms. They have a pool and offer a very good breakfast. They do not serve lunch or dinner but there are several good restaurants close by. If you are coming by train, be aware that the hotel is about 20 minutes walk from the train station along the main road."

"nothing to add"

"I truly cannot express in words the genuine hospitality that Antonio and his family extended to us new Turista Americano. My wife and I that is. So, the next guest can have a unique experience as we did, I won’t reveal all and spoil it for you. However, it was our very first time in Scalea, Calabria as well as Italy. Although this is a VRBO our experience was not one of a business transaction. Antonio treated us as guest in his home and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable for the 8 days we spent there. For those shy trying to communicate in Italian, he will make sure it's not a problem. If you want a true Neapolitan Margherita “pizza” in Scalea he can tell you the place. Beautiful historic sites, he can direct you to that too.Casa Marea – The apartment was exceptionally clean, also were the linens and towels. The washing machine perfecto! Both bathrooms functioned perfectly. Every appliance we felt we needed served our needs. The balcony view! That peaceful, serene view alone would have been enough if that’s all we had but of course it wasn’t. The support from Antonio and his family as well as the comfort of the apartment are worth much, much more than the small amount to rent it. Hopefully we were good guest as well! Thank you again, Antionio, Paola, and Fabrizio. This will not be our last visit to you. We will return. Your hospitably and guidance is one of the main highlights of our trip to Italy. Grazie mille!Brian & Christi Florida USA "

"The property is a big mansion with lots of rooms so it’s like a B&B style . The couple of the house were very great with me. The night that I came I was late. The man stayed up to open the gate for me to come in with my car. They cook the breakfast for me in their kitchen. The room was nice , had a pool and a nice view from up top of the mountains . "

"What a joke. They advertise all these wonderful amenities and when we arrived there was absolutely nothing available. No spa, no beach, no tennis, no laundry facilities, no hair salon. We would never have stayed here if we had know. When we complained they offered us a free drink! I have complained through the hotel and the refuse to respond and tried to get a refund from Expedia with no luck. Don't go to this hotel if you are expecting lots to do.....there is nothing!"

"Amazing value for the price, the breakfast and dinner buffets were great"

"This place is CLEAN, amazing, beautiful, charming, comfy bed, amazing location restaurant and beach close by. Friendly staff and owner. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night. Stay there you won't regret it. Sophie and Mike from Calgary, Canada!"
