A discreet structure right next to the spacious port area and the delightful promenade that you can enjoy in peace with a relaxing walk
The room that was reserved for us even if not very spacious (about fifteen square meters according to the guidelines on the brochures) was still equipped with everything you need. In my humble opinion, what should perhaps be reviewed in an accommodation facility is the choice of using carpeting that tends to absorb odors that are not always pleasant. For the future, if I happen to return, in addition to the "non-smoking" option I will ask for a "no carpet" room.
Anyway, returning to the room I occupied the bed was large and definitely very comfortable; I slept there like a dormouse.
Hearty and varied breakfast, both sweet and savory.
Friendly and helpful staff, ready to meet any additional requests such as scrambled eggs or other to prepare on the spot. There is also the availability of an open-air “guarded” parking along a driveway to the hotel (it is guarded in the sense that at night the access gate to the driveway is closed).
Overall, I think it deserves to return on future passes in the area for a healthy stop during a longer trip

I come back every year to this hotel, considering it a bit like home. The staff is always very kind and ready to respond to every need. The rooms and environments are very clean, the restaurant great. The proximity of beautiful beaches and the port adds the opportunity to spend days at sea and stroll along the tourist and commercial part of the port particularly beautiful in the evening and morning, having breakfast. In short, for me it is coming home

What a fantastic, clean hotel. The staff was so sweet and very informative. Room was a nice size with all the amenities we needed. Breakfast was included and was a nice selection. Steps from the beach. The strip was great at night. Lots of action. We would definitely stay here again!!

Stayed in this hotel 4 nights on a business trip with a group. The local counterparts had booked the hotel with signifcant discount off the rack rates on the hotel web site.

The hotel is located on a quiet street close to the port and the beach. The lobby was spacy and well appointed. There was TV with Sky Sport in the day bar so we were able to see the games we wanted.

The room was smallish, felt crowded and it was rather hot in the room as well. It turned out the AC was off as the hotel was almost empty out of season. It was still rather hot during the day, but opening windows largely solved the problem for the night. The large bed was comfortable. The bathroom had all required amenities.

The flat TV had mostly Italian channels. The Internet was working OK.

The breakfast lacked vegetables and choice of juices and we had to resort to croissants and sweets. The coffee was excellent as one would expect in Italy.

We had dinner once in the acclaimed L'Approdo restaurant in the hotel. The food was good, but overpriced vcompared to other local places. I would recommend Charcoal grilled kid goat. We ate mostly outside and I can recommend the Pedro Trattoria with excellent food and good service at reasonable prices.

The staff was helpful and tried to assist us in every way, but obviously it was beyond their authority to get AC turned on.

The hotel offered a reasonably priced transfer by minibus to the St. Euphemia Airport.

I stayed in this hotel on two different occasions; once in Sep-2013 and May-2014. The reason for that was we were advised of this hotel as recommended as best hotel in town. There is no doubt about the location of the hotel since it's located within a few seconds walking distance from the harbour/sea. The front desk staff were just fine, not too friendly (might be because of english skills). However, the hotels seems to be charming from outside but inside with kind of small lobby. Narrow floor halways with narrow elevator brings you to the room. The rooms, both times, were standard size with fair size bathroom. However, the standing shower was really small as even hitting and touching the walls or shower flexible curtains while moving your body parts or turning around. The room AC cannot be properly adjusted from the room and I had to call front desk in order to activate and adjust the AC. The TV channels are not necessarily covering popular channels in europe. The worst part was breakfast. It was meant to be breakfast buffet; however, just a couple of items for pastry and sausage and a couple of choices for juices. The other two disadvantages were the fact that, at least, I've never been greeted at the time of entering into the breakfast room nor I've ever seen any one working there. And sometimes there was no item on the table (e.g. a type of sausage) and I had to wait for someone to show up in order to go back and bring more of that item. basically poor breakfast from food/drink choices as well as services. Having said that, the restuarant right next to the hotel had a wonderful selection of foods on the menu.

Stayed for a five nights with a small baby in July 2013. Very nice, quiet rooms with all proper amenities, accurate and delicate cleaning every day, towels and bathrobe are comfortable. Beach is 5 minutes’ walk from the hotel, a lot of good restaurants within the same distance. Nice breakfasts, but the same every day. The hotel has its own restaurant with nice fresh food but a bit expensive. Staff is friendly and helpful. If you need a transport, please check ahead with the reception as there might be some problems with availability.

We took the ferry from Messina around mid-day and started a pleasant ride through the countryside. This hotel was easy to find and well appointed for an overnight stay. Very clean, nice bathroom, and very quiet room. We enjoyed a good dinner with our friends, and a very nice breakfast. We did find the room itself small (but we were travelling with motorcycle gear, which takes up a lot of space). The staff was very nice and helpful throughout our stay.

I spent 2 weeks for business trip .. This 4-star hotel was recommended by our partner in Vibo .. The hotel is around 30min from Lamezia airport and it cost around 50Euro .. The breakfast was nice but I think there should be an alternative .. The staff was helpful .. There is sky TV .. The hotel is 30min from Tropea and 10min drive from Pizzo Calabro. In general very good

Beautiful hotel 4star in Vibo Marina harbor, a natural site to visit Eolian Island, only 43 sea miles. Local attractions as Vibo Marina for beach and sea, Pizzo 4km for famous ice cream (tartufo), Tropea 25km and Cape Vatican for tourism on the fantastic sea.
In the hotel the famous "l'Approdo" restaurant with excellent fish, and "Approdocafè" for happy hours.

We found ourselves a bit lost driving from Sicily to the Amalfi and had no bed for the night. We saw signs for this place, and although difficult to find inn the dark we pleased with the find. The gentleman at the front desk was incredibly friendly and helpful. They made a room up for us in 10 minutes. It was large with balconies either side. Very clean and comfortable. We had a late dinner at the hotel and the food was delicious. The wait staff couldn't have been friendlier. It turned out to be a fantastic find. Would definitely recommend this hotel

Is the free parking on site or in the street?
Answer from kelli d

We parked directly in front in designated parking spaces by the road (but off the road) but were offered free parking within the complex, as we were only there one night we didn’t feel we needed to move the vehicle.
