The hotel we have in October for a beach vacation with two kids booked. The hotel has both a stunning location and is also terrific in a caribbean appeared garden nestled. By the pool one sees hardly the something of the 2-3 story apartment houses. The way to the wonderful beach consists of a few steps. Great! The staff and the owners are very welcoming and tried hard to satisfy the guest. Safe are the apparatements partly getting a bit old, we have first one with 2 bedrooms but hardly windows, in a dark corner, occupied, when we after a ... alternative asked, one was the question genüber very responsive and offered us a wonderful apartment with also two bedrooms a covered balcony to the garden and french balcony to the sea to, which we for the last three nights stay were allowed to.
Once again we have said-that is now the most beautiful hotel, which we ever have booked, even though we certainly already often modern rooms had, however the cleanliness was exemplary and the hotel just an absolute dream! read more

We are at the beginning of October for to this hotel went a couple more days at the beach to lie and relax.
The area is very nicely kept, no 'bunker'. Extensive, very well maintained green areas with hammocks and children's playground, papageienkäfik, schildkrötenteich.
The beach is directly at the facilities. A diving is available, beach volley field and bottsverleih also.
The staff was polite, but not always effusive friendly, but completely okay was.
We had a studio, which was directly below at the beach is. The apartments are in the range 'borgo donna canfora ' above the hotel. It ... is quite steep up the hill. The guests from above were always by a golf cart up and down transortiert. We would therefore a studio recommend.
The food was good and varied.
We also have a small trip ( rental car) after tropea and capo vaticano made, which is very recommendable.
Altogether a clear recommendation! read more

The individual units are wonderful in the beautiful garden nestled. Turquoise, crystal clear sea is right on the doorstep. There are always enough chairs and sun screens at the beach and at the pool available.
Guests are a mix of cultures and from 0-99. Dog are against an extra charge permitted.
We would gladly come again.
Only fly in the ointment: coffee for breakfast you get only from the machines ( powder-Chemistry)!

Beach vacation with a view of Stromboli

The hotel lies surely one of the most beautiful beach sections capo VATICANO (never had bathing shoe). Loungers and sun screens were always available. Itself in the peak season we found the hotel as very comfortable. We stayed in a 2 -family bungalow (2 -room). These are approximately 300 meters above the hotel on the cliff. Beautiful view of the Island Stromboli and Sicily. Transfer to the restaurant/ pool/ beach with golf Cars instead of (just front desk call-never had to wait long). Pool is with sea water filled, bothered us and the children however not further. There are three ... different areas with different depths in the pool. Facilitities are beautiful in the garden embedded with Schildkrotenteich. On the complex there is also a small store ( price are moderate). Diapers but there is no. Next large shop is already about 20 minutes away on foot. Breakfast buffet was OK - coffee from the automat (and the in Italy). Every day there were about 6 Primo piatto and 6 secondo piatto to choose from (with full board same selection at lunch and in the evening). First course was mostly very good pasta and 2. Corridor was either a piece of meat or fish. At least 3 dishes per course were with fish or seafood. Second is really only the meat. In the evening but there is still an anti Pasti buffet ( as you will find a supplement). On pizza you can instead of a Ganges always avoid. Once a week there is a large buffet outside ( either on a lawn or by the pool) with Calabrian specialties (large crowd in the first 5 minutes). You can usually from 20 o'clock evenings food, but these Spezialbüfetts open only at 21 o'clock. For children definitely too late. One knows bath-towels at the front desk relate: change Euro 2-. The hotel offers a shuttle bus after Tropea to ( beautiful town). Apart from that offer the particular tour operator a variety of excursions ( for example Pizzo the hometowns of Tratufo ice). The sea is at the start deep very quickly. At two days in the two weeks we had very high waves ( red Flag). Apart from that is the sea very clean and simply magnificent. Also snorkeling find a few rock with fish (of course no Maldives or red sea). Long walks on the beach are bad, since left and right quite soon rock come. In the evening there are beautiful Sunsets to admire. read more

The villagio was a small very well maintained complex in a beautiful garden, right next to sea.
The rooms are spacious, but a bit spartan-which only with bad weather disturbs.
With the half-board you can evenings with a very tasty menu and an extensive starters buffet count. The breakfast is for Italy not bad, only somewhat monotonous.
The staff are very friendly and attentive.
Because of the peaceful location and the lack of animation in the pre and post season the hotel is the ideal place relaxation. read more

The peaceful location the IL gabbiano II below the steep coast in the immediate area of the hotel's own sandy beach offers relaxation from the first minute.
The small convenience store next to the restaurant offers actually everything you
So besides still needs.
With a rental car (Costs per day Between 35.-and 70 euros depending on the lease term) you can the area explore as for example the towns of Tropea, Pizzo, Sorianello, Nicoterra, Scilla or Serra San Bruno.

Whoever sought peace and relaxation, this time to book here. In the high season it was noisy and cramped, buffet in the restaurant then clearly too small. Resort is spread over two levels, below you is close to the beach and restaurant, but probably hardly peace during the high season. In the low season, as it was for us, but it was great. It is quiet, but the disadvantage, that one large routes, or get a shuttle service to (you'll be picked up with E-CART). All in all, but very beautiful hotel area and in the low season always well ... worth a positive recommendation. In the kitchen there is hardly anything to complain about, however, side dishes at the buffet (fries, potatoes) always cold, there should be improved. Was tasty but everything and if you at the selection of food has nothing, you can order a pizza. We will come back again and again. read more

Be careful with the choice of apartments, air conditioning systems on the roofs of the area, such as noise from turbines to vier: 00 o'clock in the morning. Animation to 24:00 o'clock very noisy, then the doors were slammed. Next to us were three apartments with a total of twelve children. The dinner was good but sometimes only lukewarm. It was not always refilled. At breakfast I missed fresh fruit salad, it was unfortunately only on Sundays. The wonderful beach is compensated for disturbance at night. read more

Less suitable for the handicapped, as steep slope to the sea in it
