Ciappi Vacation Rentals

"It was an experience as if we stayed in our own home Very friendly owner We enjoyed staying there"

"We had a great stay. We are visiting from the USA and are booking hotels as we go, not ahead of time. We found this hotel around 6-7 PM and rang from the keypad on site. We were instructed to communicate from WhatsApp and everything from there went smoothly and quickly (as there wasn’t a host on site at that time). Everything was electronic including the keypad entry. The room was adorable and had the most comfortable bed and pillows we had yet encountered in 2 weeks of touring Italy. We had an issue with the temperature of our room but immediately received remote help. The sunshades were appreciated as they blacked out the room to allow for sleeping in. The shower was huge and had a hand held attachment and also a rainfall shower head. This was the first hotel we encountered that offered conditioner, they also provided disposable slippers. The blow dryer wasn’t the hottest but it still worked (and probably better for your hair). And we absolutely LOVED the young woman that greeted us in the morning and provided us coffee at the provided breakfast. She was so kind and thanked us for our stay and answered any questions we had even if they weren’t related to our stay. We wouldn’t have booked a 2nd night here if we had the time to stay longer. If we return to Messina. We will book here. 10/10! "

"Amazing stay for us four Americans. Everyone was so kind and welcoming."

"I am very happy with my stay at this hotel. Excellent service, great location, nice and friendly staff. It will be my favorite place every time I come back here."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our perfect stay at Domus Nova! The owner Giuseppe was a fantastic host making us feel welcome as if we were visiting relatives! He graciously carried our luggage up the small flight of stairs and upgraded us to a balcony suite making our stay even more pleasant with a beautiful view of the Strait of Messina/Sicily. Giuseppe was extremely knowledgeable, offered several recommendations to visit around the local area including several attractions in nearby cities and took the time to greet us and check in daily. Every morning the lovely Fryline served us espresso/cappuccino and offered a nice selection of pastries, meat and cheese and the friendly staff thoroughly cleaned our room every morning. The room was clean and spacious with a smart tv, AC, and all the amenities-our rainfall shower was very hot with good water pressure and the bed was very comfortable. The rooms are centrally located in the heart of Reggio behind Corso Garibaldi just minutes from the Centrale train station. Steps from the resort is excellent shopping historical monuments and amazing restaurants. A couple of blocks from the resort is Lungomare, several lovely beaches and restaurants on the water. Out of all the hotels and B&B we stayed at throughout Italy and USA over the years, Domus Nova was more like staying with family (that you actually like!) we can’t wait to return here again!"

"great location for beach/walks/ferry/restaurants - excellent customer service"

"it was anice pkace quiet and clean "

"We had only one night to stay in this hotel that seemed to be a five star in old days on our way back to Rome. Our room was very clean and spacious with a very nice view of the sea. I also enjoyed using the indoor swimming pool. The staff were also very nice and helpful. the breakfast was very limited and I think it was because not many people were staying at our time. By the way there was a pizzeria restaurant close by called Bambu. Their food was excellent "

"very good"
