8/10 Good
"Family run hotel - so helpful and friendly which really made our holiday special. Never been on first name terms with hotel staff before ! But special mention to Martina, Aurelio, Fabio and Katrina 😀 (& Kevin on the Marlove boat) Hotel very peaceful as out of town. We walked into Tropea old town - it takes about 40 mins safely in daylight but can organise the hotel minibus pick up easily in the morning for evening return. We liked our room (no 9) with sea views and spacious although could have done with some drawers so we could properly unpack. Hotel restaurant great food and busy. Pool bar menu limited in day but freshly made. Pool not massive but also not busy at all in October, so plenty of sunbeds. Worth going to local beach Riaci - long steep walk so pay for the hotel minibus to take you there and back !"

"The property was absolutely stunning. Though it was supposedly at capacity it felt like there were only a few of us staying most the time. It was very quiet and very restful. The amenities were wonderful. The only complaint would be our dinner meal at the main restaurant. It was not good at all and so we did not return there the second night. But the breakfast and bar menu, although limited was good."

10/10 Excellent
"I review hotels so hard for me to turn my work head off However if I were writing up Village Eden. I would say a wonderful paradise for all travellers. Great for couples & families. I has an apartment in the annex up the hill and it was perfect. The hotel itself if lovely. The beach is absolutely beautiful. The staff is super sweet and welcoming. Always ensuring that we had everything we needed. Getting from the annex up on the hill to beach side hotel was a breeze. Golf carts pick you up on request quickly. Never waited more than 3 minutes before the golf cart pick up arrived and that’s available until midnight which is great if you’re having late drinks at the hotel restaurant which was so so fantastic The cocktails were superb.perfect Service &Food so very delicious. Wonderful chef and selection for every type of diet.The private beach is beautiful and each room has alotted beach loungers guaranteed. The pool was awesome if sand isn’t your thing. So glad I chose Village Eden for my personal holiday in Capo Vaticano. I would suggest car hire to get around the area and an afternoon visit to Tropea. Te horse offers a parking space for each room. I LOVE THIS PLACE."
