Disliked: Room comfort
Small, cramped room. Felt like a cottage-like resort. Staff weren't very friendly/helpful. Difficult to find location & wasn't as close to water as I had understood from description.

Pessimo soggiorno
Hotel squallido con ospiti nella quasi totalità stranieri. Nonostante si faccia pagare a fine Agosto 150€ a notte, il frigo si paga a parte(5€ al giorno), così come l'aria condizionata(5€ al giorno), così come il servizio spiaggia (15€ al giorno), così come il wifi (2€ al giorno). A molte camere si accede solo tramite scale, niente zanzariere nelle stanze, motore dei condizionatori delle camere montati senza logica, a noi, che eravamo tre persone, per due notti hanno dato solo 3 bustine monodose di docciashampoo. Se alloggi qui l'unico vantaggio che hai è che puoi arrivare a mare tramite una discesa privata molto ripida, ma la navetta è ogni mezz'ora, perciò se vuoi andarci in altri orari devi usare la tua macchina. La colazione è stata per noi l'esperienza peggiore, a dir poco scarsa, con cornetti vuoti congelati, jogurt non confezionato, "succo" dalla macchinetta che era acqua colorata e, in Calabria, ZERO frutta, infine, la cosa intollerabile erano le urla in sala tra caposala e camerieri condite da Bestemmie, il tutto nonostante fossero presenti anche bambini! Un posto da evitare!

Hôtel calme proche de la mer
Déçue par ce qui était prévu et ce que l'on a trouvé à l'arrivée : Réservation d'une chambre avec 2 lits doubles, nous avions un lit double et un lit simple !! La chambre très petite, peu de rangement, mal insonorisée. Le tarif de l'hôtel pour le transfert est annoncé à €70, le prix réel est de €85, une taxe non mentionnée pour l'animation qui ne valait pas un tel supplément (14 jours à €125). Les photos sur le site ne sont pas réalistes.. l'accueil et l'organisation laisse à désiré.

Hotel bien situé et accueillant
Nous avons passé 8 jours dans cet hôtel fin octobre 2014. Cet hôtel, situé à Capo Vaticano est bien aménagé et proche d'une très belle plage. Nous avons été très bien accueillis et le personnel fait preuve d'attentions régulières avec les clients de l'hôtel. Belle piscine également à disposition des clients.
