    The shower could do with a little bit of maintenance work although I did not mention it to Marie as it slipped my mind

    Marie the manager is the most helpful person I have met for many a year. Nothing was too much for her from the moment I arrived to the day I left she was always very attentive

    The residence was charming and perfect for our short stay. The location is great and has fantastic views out to sea. Maria was extremely welcoming and helpful - we look forward to returning again very soon.

    All great. We got an apartment as the hotel itself was full. We had plenty of space for our own.

    The hotel is really relaxing but the best is the village itself. This little village was meant to be just a stop On our roadtrip but turned out to be a highlight. The tiny town is full with excellent restaurant. You have a perfect view over the coast and it is chill.

    Gorgeous historical building tastefully restored with amazing original features throughout. The room had views of the sea, and the shared roof terrace has an almost 360 view of the mountains and sea. Stunning location in tiny but enchanting town. Maria Teresa was a friendly, accommodating and helpful host.

    Parking is a little tricky (as the entire village is situated on a hill), baggage has to be carried through quite steep and narrow lanes. But no problem, as the friendly staff was pleased to assist!

    Beautiful restored historic house in the center of the small village. Nice view of the sea from the room and the terrace. Very friendly staff Very good breakfast. Restaurant of the same owner is just a few minutes away.

    Any tiny defects were insignificant compared to the pleasure of being here for too short a stay, but it would be impossible to accommodate any one with reduced mobility.

    The Residenza is a radically restored and updated stone-built mediaeval tower on the sea-facing edge of one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, located on a promontory reached by a serpentine roadway. The convivio is approached through a maze of 'cobbled' streets some of which are merely narrow alleyways. So if you want the charm like we did you can't expect on-street parking around the corner. Our charming, linguistically gifted, diminutive but energetic host Maria Teresa asked us to phone on arrival and insisted on carrying both our large bags about 200 yards and up three flights of stairs to our room. Our room was typical of the rest of the palazzo, which was embellished with an eclectic mix of antique furniture and repurposed objects that included two woodwork benches. Outside there was a vertiginous terrace reached by a spiral staircase that provided spectacular views of the sea and sunset. We were also advised about the availability of an evening meal at the connected restaurant which we used twice and enjoyed all the typical Calabrian dishes on offer. Breakfast was straightforward but abundant and tasty. When we needed to depart early our host was only to pleased to adapt to our needs. The local residents were very friendly. We enjoyed a private showing of the Persebe, which is a massive nativity scene based on the local geography.
