Booked a taxi from Ricadi station , the bloke said the hotel was closed, and took me to another hotel. If there aren't enough reservations there being end of season, they move you to L'Arcobaleno Resort. Make sure if travelling independently that you don't get caught out, and end up being dropped off to a closed hotel, as there is no email to inform you of the change.

Great holiday

Great hotel. Lovely staff. We were the only Brits there but had a wonderful time. Rooms, grounds and pool are immaculately kept. Would definitely recommend having a car as there is not much within easy walking distance and allows you to explore Tropea and rest of region. Fab beach is a five minute drive away and has the best sea water I’ve ever swam in in the Mediterranean. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel if you’re looking for an authentic family run Italian hotel and some good value R&R.

End of the world

I would like to tell you objective facts regarding this hotel: it is hotel only for seniors and you will find it hard to meet young people there. There are not any amenities for children, no playground, deep swimming pool..The closest supermarket is 20 min walk (downhill, uphill), beach 30 min walk. There is a minibus from the hotel to the beach, but this beach is crowdy full of umbrelas. The water is crystal clear though. We did not want to stay ar overcrowded beach so we were walking 30 min to a different beach.The area around the hotel is like end of the world. No restaurants, no shops, so in the evening you have nowhete to take a walk, imagine just village with nothing to see and do except the beautiful sea and you are there. The train station is 30 min walk. The hotel bus can take you there for 3 euros each way. We were told the minibus goes to the beach every 30 min, but when we were there they changed it for once an hour in some hours. It happened we were waiting for the minubus but it did not arrive. Breakfast is youghurt,croissants, cheese,ham and bread, no vegetables. Dinnes consists of a bufet which is pretty good and 2 courses you have to wait for the courses to be served so it means you have to wait a long time sometimes. The meals served on plates are not that good once they served us a canned cold tuna as a meal, so we rathet ate from a bufet which mainly included varieties of cooked, roasted vegetables but not much meat ...during the dinner watter is not included you are charged extra for it.Check your bill at reception continuesly as they tried to charge us for things we did not even order like a beer. Also happened that we ordered a sparkling water and a waiter brought us a still watter,we refused it, he apologized and brought the correct sparkling watter which would be ok but on the bill they charged us for both watters. If you do not give a tip to a waiter count with being served as the last table. The room was simple with no aircodatition ( you have to pay extra for it) with a high huminidy. There are a lot of moscitos in the area. The possitive was a beautiful clear sea but I would not go back nor to the area nor to the hotel.

We have stayed in this hotel early May this year and the experience was very good. The hotel is placed in a quiet location, not far from a picturesque beach. You can walk there in about 20 min, or you can use use the hotel shuttle for free. The hotel offers the service to the beach and back several times over the course of the day. The hotel is very clean and tastefully decorated. Lots of beautiful plants and sculptures. Rooms were cleaned daily, including changing towels. Excellent food. If you would like to experience traditional Italian cuisine, you will love it. Very friendly and always happy to help staff, just feeling like guessing your wishes. Very nice pool, surrounded by palm tries and sun loungers. We have been there just before the season has started and enjoyed the peaceful little gem.

This is the 4th time we stayed at Baia del Capo hotel and this time the group got extended by the grandparents :), not only the cousins So it must have been good, better every time. This is a perfect spot if you want to enjoy a relaxing holiday together with your family. As children already ask about next holiday at this hotel it is always our first choice when deciding where to spend our holidays. Easy access via train or car (free car parking is available), good quality of meals, clean with crystal clear water beach nearby makes this place special for us. Thank you all for welcoming us every time!
