The private beach and pool were amazing. Breakfast was tasty, but every day almost the same. There were not enough tables for guests. Sometimes we need to wait a few minutes. Hotel is super clean.

The beds were extremely hard and we asked about changing rooms or any help since we were there for a few days and were offered nothing. Great for families with really little kids. No where to fill up water bottles other than the tap. Beach was really great especially the use of paddle boards

Breakfast was good. Most of the staff were very accommodating, especially with children. The grounds are beautiful, pool could be cleaner. Not very much shade, no umbrellas at the pool. Unfortunately, the beach was not great, very rocky and bad weather caused big waves… The room is comfortable, however ants were a guest most of time. Shuttle to Tropea was quite expensive. Overall, nice stay.

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.

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.

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.

Beautiful resort located directly on the water. Beautifully-maintained property with very kind and hospital staff. Over an hour away from Lamezia Terme airport. This was our first time in Calabria and we'll be back for sure. Plan to book taxis (which are a bit expensive, but it's understandable for the region) or rent a car to explore Ricadi and Capo Vaticano. Visiting Tropea is a must, about a 15-minute drive from the resort.

A very nice hotel with a beach. Our room was in a small one room circular building amongst a similar group, with its own outside seating area. Food was good and amenities good. It seemed good for children and almost all the other guests were families with children. There seemed to be a lot of entertainment for children. As a couple without children this wasn’t ideal, but overall a very nice hotel.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
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.

Die gesamte Anlage ist wunderschön, sauber und top gepflegt. Auch die Lage ist sehr besonderes. Das Personal ist jederzeit sehr höflich und hilfsbereit. Der Pool und auch der Restaurantbreich sind sehr schön. Die Angebote an Freizeitaktivitäten wie Tennis, Tischtennis, Fitness sowie auch E-Bikes oder Tretboote sind super. Zwei kleine negative Punkte gab es. Das Strandufer ist sehr grobsteinig. Badeschuhe sind von Vorteil. In den ersten Tagen hatten wir vereinzelt Ameisen im Zimmer. Dies wurde aber von uns reklamiert und das Problem wurde sofort beseitigt.
