Pros +
- I really liked how the hotel buildings are set up on the territory — it felt almost like staying in a private garden. Very intimate and tranquil, with a truly restful atmosphere. I loved the sea, the food in the restaurant was wonderful, and the staff were always kind and ready to help with anything, which made me feel very comfortable.
- Clean, accessible to everythingGreat and friendly staff
- I liked the size of the room and balcony. The location wasn’t bad either. Pool was great for the kids.
Cons -
- Honestly, there wasn’t anything I didn’t like about the hotel itself. The only thing is that the landscape around is quite hilly, so walking outside the hotel could get a bit tiring.
- The rooms needed an update. Beds were hard. AC didn’t work well. Breakfast was the same everyday. Entertainment was lacking.
- The entertainment stuff needs a little more help to entertain the guests.

Our room had an ocean view. To see the sunset every night was breathtaking. Septimo and the whole breakfast and dinner crew were amazing.
The entertainment stuff needs a little more help to entertain the guests.
Beachfront Pool
Little oldShower door was broken No bell boy. Had to carry bags ourselves
I loved the proximity to the beach, the service of the staff and the swimming pool. I loved the breakfast! My favorite time was the sunset.
They should renovate the pool. Also the beach is a bit small, i preferred the beach in the next bay over but thats not the hotels fault. The rooms are a bit oldish but very clean.
Great spot & staff. We were a family of 14. Our (Grandparents) room was great. Family rooms were just ok. Breakfast was awesome as was server !! Great location for walking to pretty town !!
Rooms were far apart from each other. AC didn't work in some rooms.
The club is in a good location but the options to move outwith the hotel grounds are limited to using the narrow beach. To the left of the beach there is an excellent and friendly beach cafe.
The club is effectively a closed walled off facility. You have to deposit cash onto a prepaid card to buy all drinks and meals. The rooms have no insect screens.
The pool was nice, but it closed at 7pm. The view was great and we could see Stromboli. Water was awesome.
Facility is not very child friendly. The was a shallow pool but if closed at 7pm. Staff was ok but not too welcoming. Rooms were ok, but TV did not work and door handle kept coming off. Fire alarmed went on every afternoon for a 3 out of 7 days. Beach was nice, but there was no shade in the afternoon.
VERY GOOD ALL THE SERVICESPOOL BIG AND CLEANBEACH SMALL BUT WELL EQUIPEDPERFECT THE BAR SERVICE
The pool, the ocean the rooms and the restaurant/bar was amazing.
nothing :)
Great continental breakfast( included ) . Good buffet lunch(12€) and nice menu for the dinner . Very good and healthy food !
Parking in the property is 10€ per day.
The beginning was great they upgraded one room to a suite Maria Martina was a wonderful hostess Parking was also included which made the stay pleasant
Room 212 beware!!! There is no air condition !!!! They totally knew but gave us this room it was horrible must have been over 36 degrees in the room! I got sick because of the horrible night! No sleeping !! At3am went to front desk to wake up the concierge and asked them for a transfer,,, Following morning we had to wait till 5pm to change room making out 2 night stay horrible! They did compensate us with a refund for one night and free lunch for 3 people!!! Should have been refunded for the 2 nights due to my mental anguish and lack of sleep
Perfect location on the waters edge.
Need a car. Breakfast is very poor. Needs to be improved.
Rooms clean and spacious, directly on beach
Beach is very rocky, difficult to walk into sea
Wonderful! Spacious rooms, good food and wonderful staff! Thank you!
it’s nice and quiet. the pool is large, access to the beach is good. the bar and the food are also all easily accessible. it very clean and well spread out. special mention to Marika at reception, she was very helpful and attentive to our needs. Also the hard working Lorenzo, he is such a gentleman.
our a/c wasn’t the best but you can’t expect much on those 40 degree days.
That the hotel had access to its own beach.
The beds were extremely uncomfortable, the hotel was quite outdated it needed some renovations.
It was located on the beach. The property was clean, and the staff was genuinely kind. The hotel restaurant had great food choices, however it was a very short walk to the center for many other options. It is located only 15min from Tropea which made for a fabulous day trip.
Pool, beach access.
