Room terrible. (See check-in note). Beach beautiful but water too rough to swim. Food awful. Tough to muster one star.

After difficulty finding it (GPS could not find it but there is a large sign in the main road) it was a lovely location on the beach. Room clean and staff friendly. No phone signal or wi if in room. Wi fi in public area which was good. Perfect if you want to be on a private beach nice and quiet

This hotel was a last minute choice, and the best of our month-long journey. At first we had reserved a very cheap room but when we saw it we were very disappointed. They shouldn't even rent it. When I asked at the desk for something else, they gave us a suite right on the beach side. We were thrilled. Good thing we said something! There are beach chairs and tables for each room, the beach is clean and well taken care of, and the view is stunning. The restaurant is right on the beach-side. I had been sick with a cold and I healed here in the crystal clear water. The staff was excellant and very helpful.

We found this hotel on line and booked a day before we arrived. It was exactly what we needed after competing and travelling for almost 3 weeks throughout Italy, prior to our flight a few days later. Surroundings were beautiful, views and private beach were amazing. Hotel staff speak minimal English but were very accommodating and did what they could to ensure we had a pleasant stay. Breakfast buffet was a mixed of yogurt, cheese, ham, croissants/desserts, fruit salad. Food was generally very good. Our only complaint was that they served us very soggy, cold asparagus for one of our dinners. At times, service during dinner was very slow because there was only one server working. This person was also expected to provide service to the owner and his family during the dinner service. It was noticed that the owner and family was often service before the patrons. Hotel and our room was very clean and presentable. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a couple of days just relaxing on a quiet beach.

Overall, it was lovely. Nice quality, upscale hotel. Gorgeous pool, amazing beach and views to die for! We were two couples travelling together had a very good time. One strange point....the hotel pool closes every afternoon from 12:30-4p! It's so everyone can take a nap, and people with rooms off the pool won't be disturbed while trying to sleep. Afternoon naps are big in Italy, so I guess when in Rome....!

Nothing good to say very limited English speaking thank goodness for Google translate. There is no reason not to at least have an information about the additional charges in english that they can either post on the web or hand out upon arrival. Though I was locked in and would of been charged for the entire 5 days if I left for a new hotel, Resort policy, To many policies and they are there to make $$ off the guests. Had lunch was a good lunch, but after eating out of the resort I found they prices were 5-15 Euros more then if you drove 2-6 miles to the near by restaurants where you got a great male at a great price. Their home page charges and what they actually charge don't jive. We arrived check-in 1600 we were charged for that days beach access and shouldn't have been. It claims to be a resort but they nickel and dime you for everything, towels, beach chairs and umbrella. If you used the ref rig in your room where fine you 10 Euros and take the items in the ref rig. The web site stated that you have a stocked mini bar, that wasn't the case. The pool, need a cap we had to get out of the pool, 5 Euros and they will sell you one, No bar at the pool, breakfast 1.5 hrs and then it' s closed we had 2 buses come in and food was gone before 0930 closing they didn't restock. Even had a night someone tried to access my room and when they couldn't get in the front door went to the patio and broke to slats of the shutter doors,

Arrived late in the evening, location not that easy to find, so take a good map! Rooms comfortable, big and clean. Friendly staff, nice beach, clear water. All in all a very nice stay. Would have liked to stay a bit longer.

Great service and staff! Very helpful and friendly... good food! Enjoyed our stay!

Based on reviews, was a bit skeptical, but having been on the Calabrian coast previously, knew it what to expect - we were surprised with our beautiful room, overlooking the sea with a nightly view of the sunset, Stomboli included! The hotel is not exactly in Briatico, but on a GORGEOUS stretch of beach, crystal blue water with the fish coming right up to you - no goggles required! Staff very friendly & helpful - be prepared for the excercise up & down the stairs as these areas are all cliffside resorts...use of a vehicle is ESSENTIAL in this area. Take advantage of the mini cruise to the Aeolian Islands, includes pickup/drop off at hotel. The stay included use of the beach chairs & umbrellas, and some water equipment - would recommend

Good kitchen. Food is fantastic! Beach area is very nice and clean. Wonderful views!!! Nice friendly staff in this family operated hotel. Rooms are so-so. IF possible, take newly build rooms and not the old ones! Air Condition filters in are not cleaned and I had to do it myself when I stayed there three different time in three different rooms. Hot water is not available after 11 PM and you will have to learn to take called showers. It's a lot cheaper to book this hotel on expedia. I saved 50% this way.

This is a beautiful place to stay. The hotel is located directly on the ocean with it's own private beach. My room had an incredible view of the italian coast. The food was outstanding. The water was warm and clear, bring a mask and snorkel. The best part was the staff. Very friendly and helpful. Thank you Fiona and Domenica for helping me with my train reservations and everything else. And a special thanks to the owner who took me to the train station personally so i wouldn't miss my train. I will recommend you to all of my friends and family. See you next time - Ciao!

We only had a fleeting overnight stay so difficult to judge. However shower was little more than a trickle and breakfast wasn't great. Beautiful view but right next to a railway line. Pool looked nice but didn't have time to test out. Rooms very basic and not very up to date.

Albergo accogliente in una posizione incantevole, con spiaggia privata. Personale molto disponibile e cortese. Problema iniziale causa blocco caldaia per acqua calda prontamente risolto con spostamento in un'altra camera, addirittura di livello superiore a quanto richiesto. Ottima la cucina del ristorante annesso. Sicuramente da consigliare.

Ho soggiornato insieme a mia moglie in questo bel villaggio/hotel di Briatico purtroppo solo per una notte quale sosta nel lungo viaggio di ritorno da Vittoria (RG) a Napoli. Ebbene non poteva essere sosta più piacevole e rilassante; l'hotel è situato in una posizione incantevole di Briatico con una bellissima spiaggia privata ed un mare limpido e pulitissimo.Le stanze, ampie e panoramiche, sono eleganti e ben arredate. La pulizia ed il servizio soddisfacente. La cena, servita all'aperto in riva al mare è stata ottima.

je moet hier best woordje italiaans spreken en verstaan. (moeilijk om verder geholpen te worden nog in frans, duits of engels) kamers zeer ver van receptie, restaurant en strand. Hogerop gelegen, trapppen; als je niet goed te been bent moet je altijd op een shuttlebusje beroep doen. wel mooi privé strand. je moet er wel 8€ per persoon per dag betalen, de dag bij late aankomst en vroeg vertrek. geen strandhanddoek. vooral voor families met kinderen. je moet wel houden van clubgevoel. veel luide muziek en gejoel op strand in voormiddag.

A fronte di una posizione ottima ed un mare pulitissimo, i servizi del villaggio sono scadenti e talvolta veramente rozzi, camere e villette belle, la spiaggia è bella e pulita

This is a nice family hotel on the beach, not far from Tropea (15 min drive by car). The private hotel beach is beautiful and clean. Staff are friendly and helpful. Food is good, we particularly enjoyed dinner on the terrace close to the beach.

otimo custo benefício.está situado em uma região belíssima e tem boa localização (entre Trapea e Pizzo,) tem boa piscina e praia particular. O acolhimento é especial.

Wir waren vom 19.10.-25.10.14 hier. Leider waren wir mit 2 anderen Paaren die einzigen Gäste, da die Saison schon zu Ende war. Der Chef des Hotels kümmerte sich rührend und sehr umsorgend um uns. Er hat uns mit sehr wertvollen Ausflugstipps wunderbare Tage in Kalabrien ermöglicht! Danke nochmals an ihn! Auch die Dame an der Rezeption war sehr freundlich und bemüht, uns unseren Aufenthalt zu verschönern. Die ganze Anlage befindet sich in einem sehr sauberen und ist mit viel Liebe zu den Details gestaltet. Überall Blumentröge und Pflanzen, Palmen an der Zufahrt zum Restaurant - das leider schon winterfest geschlossen war, nur Frühstück wurde noch serviert - lassen alles in einem wunderschönen, mediteranen Stil erscheinen. Ich denke, im Sommer ist es hier das Paradies. Da hier sehr viel Wert auf Sauberkeit und klare Oberflächen gelegt wird können wir auch verstehen, dass der Hotelchef es nicht duldet, dass im Sommer Schirme und Liegen kreuz und quer verstellt werden (was von anderen Gästen als neg. bezeichnet wurde). Alles hat hier seine Ordnung - finden WIR gut so. Danke für die schöne Woche!

Hotel ist wunderbar direkt am Meer gelegen, toller sauberer Strand und tolles Wasser. Aber das Hotel, ein Frühstück so sparsam und monoton wie nie erlebt, kein Obst, keine regionalen Produkte, kein internationales Fernsehen und wenn italienisches TV gesehen werden wollte, bedurfte es einer Genehmigung durch die Rezeption. Kein WiFi auf den Zimmern, das Essen überteuert, z.b. mussten wir für zwei dünne Scheiben Schwertfisch 20 € zahlen, das war bis zu 100 % mehr als in anderen Restaurants und Nutzer der Halbpension klagten über schlechte Qualität. Trotz schönen Wetters wurden Schirme und Liegen winterfest abgebaut und auch dadurch der Eindruck verstärkt, dass Urlauber eigentlich stören. Die Zimmer waren sauber, aber die Betten stanken nach fremden Schweiß. Das Personal konnte weder englisch, noch französisch geschweige denn deutsch.
