"It was a nice and clean place. Only issue I had was the bathroom showers were too small for me. I’m 6’5 and 300. It was too tight and uncomfortable for me. Other than that I had a good stay."

"We stayed in Tropea for one week along with cousins from the UK. The daily walks providing views of the town and the crystal blue waters were breathtaking. Our accommodation at Sui-Generis could not be faulted. Rather than being paying guests, the experience felt like staying with family and friends. The staff were polite, friendly, super efficient and always ready to offer guidance when approached for tips regarding restaurants, boat trips or train travel. This hotel is a 10 room facility , with large rooms, a superb , ultra clean pool and only a short walk to the town centre. Breakfasts are prepared by Emanuella and Anna ( try the omelettes). Coffees, teas and food arranged by Giovanni and Michele, along with their rotating shifts attending the needs of the poolside guests. Front of house is serviced by Mima, Manuela and Domenica, with nothing too difficult to handle. The spotless state of the rooms are due to the hard work of Anna and Ketty. The pool is meticulously cleaned by Gabrielle. Our group has no hesitation in recommending this facility, and it is a credit to the owners ; Francesco and Giuseppe. Thank you for making our visit so welcoming and enjoyable."

"Overall, our stay was satisfactory. Breakfast was very good, with a nice variety of choices, but the main restaurant’s menu was limited. I also found the air fresheners in the corridors too strong and unpleasant. Our biggest disappointment was the staff’s attitude. While the reception staff were polite, the restaurant staff and others throughout the resort were neither friendly nor welcoming. Guests are there to relax and enjoy their vacation, and a warm smile and pleasant attitude make all the difference. Unfortunately, genuine hospitality was lacking."

"Family run hotel - so helpful and friendly which really made our holiday special. Never been on first name terms with hotel staff before ! But special mention to Martina, Aurelio, Fabio and Katrina 😀 (& Kevin on the Marlove boat) Hotel very peaceful as out of town. We walked into Tropea old town - it takes about 40 mins safely in daylight but can organise the hotel minibus pick up easily in the morning for evening return. We liked our room (no 9) with sea views and spacious although could have done with some drawers so we could properly unpack. Hotel restaurant great food and busy. Pool bar menu limited in day but freshly made. Pool not massive but also not busy at all in October, so plenty of sunbeds. Worth going to local beach Riaci - long steep walk so pay for the hotel minibus to take you there and back !"

"I review hotels so hard for me to turn my work head off However if I were writing up Village Eden. I would say a wonderful paradise for all travellers. Great for couples & families. I has an apartment in the annex up the hill and it was perfect. The hotel itself if lovely. The beach is absolutely beautiful. The staff is super sweet and welcoming. Always ensuring that we had everything we needed. Getting from the annex up on the hill to beach side hotel was a breeze. Golf carts pick you up on request quickly. Never waited more than 3 minutes before the golf cart pick up arrived and that’s available until midnight which is great if you’re having late drinks at the hotel restaurant which was so so fantastic The cocktails were superb.perfect Service &Food so very delicious. Wonderful chef and selection for every type of diet.The private beach is beautiful and each room has alotted beach loungers guaranteed. The pool was awesome if sand isn’t your thing. So glad I chose Village Eden for my personal holiday in Capo Vaticano. I would suggest car hire to get around the area and an afternoon visit to Tropea. Te horse offers a parking space for each room. I LOVE THIS PLACE."
