Nel cuore di Chianalea
Pros:

Bella posizione, arredamento molto carino, bagno comodo, aria condizionata.
Bar/ristorantino annesso.

Cons:

Unico piccolissimo neo: difficile trovare un posto per stendere.
E ovviamente essendo nel cuore di Chianalea per raggiungerlo occorre fare un tratto di strada a piedi, cosa che comunque noi avevamo messo in conto.

Pros:

Wspaniała lokalizacja w uroczej dzielnicy rybackiej. Spory pokój z balkonem na uliczkę przy ktorej znajdują sie liczne knajpki co zupełnie nie przeszkadzalo. Sprawna klimatyzacja. Dobre i świeże śniadania z opcją na słodko lub słono jedzone na dole w barze. Przesympatyczna i pomicna P.Basia. W pokoju byl dostępny parasol plażowy.

Cons:

Wszystko nam sie podobalo. Bardziej jako wskazówka - do pokoju prowadzą wąskie i dosc strome schody wiec jesli ktos ma wózek czy duże badaze to warto wziąć to pod uwage.

Ein wunderschöner Ort
Pros:

Die Lage der Casa vela war gut. Wir hatten ein Studio mit Meerblick. Was besonderes abends sehr schön war. Man wohnt inmitten der Altstadt. Der Strand ist fußläufig erreichbar. Das gesamte Personal war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Der Ort ist wunderschön. Haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt

Cons:

Das Studio müsste unbedingt mal renoviert werden. Es ist echt in die Jahre gekommen . Im Schlafraum befindet sich auch die Küche. Und wenn der Wasserhahn die ganze Nacht tropft ist das nicht gerade schlaffördernd. Auch der Spülkasten im Bad funktioniert nicht mehr richtig. Es gibt einen Minifernseher im Zimmer den man aber nicht schauen konnte weil die Steckdose total kaputt war. Wir trauten uns da nicht rumzubasteln. Aber die Angestellten von der dazugehörenden Weinbar haben einen passenden Anschluss dazu gebastelt. Normalerweise brauchen wir keinen Fernseher im Urlaub aber es war gerade Fußball ⚽ WM. Und man konnte vor Ort nirgends wo mal ein Spiel schauen.
Die Unterkunft ist sehr schwer zu finden weil man außerhalb des Ortes das Auto parken muss. Wir haben uns dann abholen lassen.

Pros:

L endroit est très bien situé à Chianalea et il est possible de se garer gratuitement dans le tunnel à l arrivée de Chianalea. L appartement est à 10 min à pieds de la plage de Scilla. Le personnel était très sympathique. Il y avait 2 options pour le petit déjeuner, un jus de fruit, une boisson chaude et soit une viennoiserie soit des œufs brouillés avec des tomates. Il y a plusieurs appartements, certains possèdent une terrasse et sont plus lumineux.

Cons:

L appartement que nous avions au 2ème étage était très humide et sombre et sans balcon. Le four faisait péter les fusibles et l eau de la douche ne s écoulait pas bien.

Cons:

Le studio ne correspondait pas à ma demande, les deux lits étaient séparés par un rideau seulement. Beaucoup de bruit de tuyauterie d’eau, et un peu d’humidité

Pros:

Personale accogliente. Tutto molto pulito.

Cons:

Purtroppo pensavo di aver preso un altro tipo di camera e invece ne ho avuto un’altra. Molto umida, i vestiti dopo 12 ore erano bagnati. Telecomando del condizionatore non funzionante.

Fantastisch, gerne wieder!!!
Pros:

Wir hatten das Apartment ganz oben. Ein Traum. Besonders die wunderschöne Terrasse mit Blick auf Alt-Scilla, den alten Palast und das Meer. Das Frühstück in der dazugehörigen Weinbar war lecker und das Personal sehr nett. Die Unterkunft ist sehr zu empfehlen. Nur das Parken ist nicht so einfach.

Cons:

Nichts hätte besser sein können.

Pros:

Lo mejor del alojamiento es el personal . Muy simpaticos todos. Un especial agradecimiento a Carolina fue muy muy amable y de gran ayuda.

Cons:

Todo bien. Lo único que creemos que necesitan contratar a mas personas ya que no dan a basto con la cantidad de trabajo en el desayuno.
