beach near Viale Alcide de Gasperi

The front desk on arriving was not super friendly, probably because we had two service dogs with us. They tried to charge us for the service dogs, though that is both against Hotels.com policy and Italian law. The room was OK, large, with a nice balcony. The shower, though, had mold on the showerhead nozzles. Breakfast was OK, but limited selection, and again originally an issue with the service dogs being allowed with us into the restaurant. They want us to sit outside! Fortunately, the manager/owner intervened and our service dogs and we were seated. The private beach is across the street, but easily walkable, and the dogs had a great time running on the sand. If you do NOT have a SERVICE dog, you’ll probably be treated well (or, better than we were).

Best modern resort in Calabria. A little expensive but worth it. Great place to relax.

Tomasso made us feel so welcome and made us feel like family. He drove us to dinner down by the beach, picked us up from the rental car return and ensured we were at the airport in plenty of time for our early morning flight. Excellent hospitality!
