Een geweldig verblijf
Pros:

Luxe kamer, mooi zwembad, aardig personeel

Cons:

De inventaris van de keuken was ietwat karig, maar een schaar en een snijplank werden binnen 1 dag alsnog netjes bezorgd

La nostra vacanza
Pros:

La struttura su una bellissima posizione è il servizio ottimo per la spiaggia vicino

Cons:

Poca sorveglianza soprattutto nella piscina, bambini tanto maleducati ma per colpa di genitori nn attenti. Ho notato molta gente seccata per questo disturbo continuo. Tuffi e schiamazzi non badando alle altre persone.

Relax in famiglia
Pros:

La gentilezza e la disponibilità del personale, i consigli su dove prenotare la spiaggia e la possibilità di usufruire di un servizio navetta per raggiungerla, La pulizia dell’appartamento e la vista mare, avevamo un trilocale, comoda la piscina per un bagno rilassante dopo una giornata di mare.
Consiglio la cena tipica calabrese e di farsi consigliare su come arrivare a Tropea, noi abbiamo preso il trenino, 30
Minuti di divertimento nelle campagne calabresi, consiglio anche di andare a vedere il panorama dal belvedere, 15 minuti scarsi di passeggiata per una vista mozzafiato.

Décevant
Pros:

La chambre équipé d’une terrasse et cuisine était très bien.

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner était un peu minimaliste. Le choix n’est pas énorme.
Nous avons mangé un seul soir au restaurant de l’hôtel et avons été déçu.

Все очень понравилось!
Pros:

Очень чисто, вид на море, горячая/холодная вода, кондиционер в каждой комнате, газовая плита, хорошие полотенца, отличная терраса, персонал и хозяева - самые отзывчивые и приветливые люди, готовые прийти на помощь по любому вопросу! Рядом в 350 мини-маркет , есть прокат мопедов, трансфер до моря регулярный, бассейн чистый, бесплатный, работает целый день. Еду не брали, но похоже, все вкусно, разнообразно и обильно!

Cons:

Муравьи маленькие и большие, причем маленькие наглее, оказывались везде, даже в постели и закрытых в чемоданах вещах. Трансфер последний с моря в 19:15, как по мне рановато, хотелось еще хотя бы до 20 побыть, но подниматься пешком с ребенком далековато и высоковато.
И хотелось бы добавить, но это не относится к отелю, а только к Капо Ватикано - так как это деревня, с транспортом там очень туго. Такси есть только в близлежащих городках (Рикади, Тропеа), это далеко. Планируйте трансфер в аэропорт заранее и тщательно, особенно если рейс ночной или ранний утренний. НА УБЕР НЕ РАСЧИТЫВАЙТЕ!!!!! Мы чуть не профукали вылет, заказали убер заранее, но в 2 ночи, когда уже надо было прям выезжать, машину так и не назначили, а найти в такое время такси, трансфер или что либо вообще, в том же убере по факту, НЕВОЗМОЖНО. Нам просто несказанно повезло, словили на дороге минивэн приватный трансфер, который ехал в наш аэропорт и было место для нас и наших вещей (это настоящее чудо, хотя брать долго не хотели, еле уговорили).

Lovely stay great resort
Pros:

Everything. The resort is much better than in the pictures! The little hotel
Apartments are lovely, clean and comfy. Comfy beds and good Cleaning standards! Beach is very close and we will return here!

Cons:

Maybe Breakfast could have been included in the price or would have been nice to have some nespresso pods and some small biscuits like in many places! It’s a pity the bar at the swimming pool
Was closed in the morning!!!

Pros:

We stayed at La Taverna for 5 nights in late June. The room was clean, the area was quiet. The swimming pool was perfect, not crowded, and the beach was at a walkable distance. Appreciated the shop and local restaurants nearby.
The staff was very helpful. There was a free shuttle to the train station (we visitedTropea).
I can recommend La Taverna!
