What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“What a great family hotel!! Lovely staff, great service, very clean place, delicious food, beautiful garden, the views, the location, I really enjoyed it all! Lots of incredible beaches very close, the sunset on the Eolian Island is unique and the view on the Stromboli is breathtaking! The quintessence of Calabrian Dolce Vita!! Fun fact, the rock you see on the coast towards the right is actually the drawing on the typical digestive bottle, Vecchio Amaro del Capo.”
“Me and my partner stayed here for 6 nights and would definitely recommend! We had read that there would be few young people but the other guests were of all ages and some families too. The hotel grounds are stunning with lush greenery and well kept. Our room was basic but spotless and cleaned each day like clockwork. The staff can’t do enough for its guests and were the highlight of the stay. The meals are traditional and refreshing with a large choice of rustic dishes. The shuttle to the beach and sunbeds provided is a great extra and the pool area had a great and relaxing atmosphere. Unfortunately the locational of the hotel is rural and although the beach is accessible via car, you can walk anywhere else. We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the traditional service. Entertainment is a lovely touch after dinner too. Absolutely would recommend to anyone looking for an very relaxing stay. Thank you to the hotel for the great service and welcome!”
