Splendido weekend estivo d'ottobre

Approfittando della coda dell' estate, trascorriamo un weekend presso questa struttura in riva a uno dei più bei mari della penisola. Tutto perfetto, dall' accoglienza e accompagnamento del personale della reception, molto competente e gentile (menzione d'onore per Gianni e Chiara) alla stanza grande, pulita e molto ben arredata, al comodo materasso, agli spazi verdi, alla piscina. Merita la fama acquisita nel tempo e un ritorno nel futuro prossimo.

Posé entre Sorrento et la Sicile

Nous avons passé 3 nuits pour une pose entre Sorrento et la Sicile. Nous avions loués la chambre confort. Très grande chambre complètement rénové. Balcon immense avec vue sur la mer et le Stromboli. Grande disponibilité pour les chaises à la plage incluant parasol. Déjeuner A1 et compris. Petit bémol, les soupers trop à la course. Aller en ville moins d'un km.

(Non tanto) povero gabbiano...

Metà ottobre, per contenere la spesa, ma l'autunno calabrese è un prolungamento dell'estate.. Struttura splendida, molto ben tenuta, con personale attento e cordiale. Mare e spiaggia a due passi ed eccellenti. Stanza piccola ma confortevole e con patio esterno privato. Colazione per tutti i gusti, cucina di livello nonostante l'ampia presenza di turisti stranieri potesse consentire un rilassamento nella composizione dei piatti. Bisognerebbe tornarci più spesso

vacanze in Calabria

Struttura in una location molto bella, non il solito villaggio che può in alcuni casi far fastidio ma bensì un posto in cui tutto è basato sulla location, di fatto attaccata al mare. Pertanto se cerchi una vacanza in un bel posto per stare tranquillo e avere tutto a portata di mano e perfetto. Cucina non troppo tipica di potrebbe fare molto di meglio soprattutto aggiungendo più sapori locali. Personale della reception be siamo rimasti un po’ colpiti potrebbero fare un po’ di meglio un po’ più attenzione al cliente. In ogni caso consigliamo la struttura

Die Hotelanlage ist wirklich wunderbar gelegen. Zudem ist sie sehr gepflegt, sodass jeder Moment der puren Erholung dient. Die Tage für uns waren ein Genuss, die wir gerne mit einem guten Glas Wein am Strand ausklingen lassen haben. Das Frühstück ist sehr umfangreich und lecker. Service und Zimmer sind top. Empfehlen können wir zudem den Hoteleigenen Shuttle-Service nach Tropea, um dort ohne Stress einen Tag zu genießen.

Wunderschöne Anlage direkt am Strand

Wir waren für eine Woche in dieser Anlage und unsere Erwartungen wurden übertroffen. Alles ist sehr gepflegt, schön gemacht und die Angestellten sind auch freundlich. Die Lage ist nicht zu übertreffen. Der Pool der sowohl vom Strand als auch von der Anlage aus genutzt werden kann und die schöne Hanglage. Wir hatten den Eindruck, dass der Vulkan Stromboli, der bei günstigen Wetterverhältnissen sichtbar ist, das Wetter postitv beeinflusst.
