Il Poggio di Tropea

Everything works efficiently and everything is good quality. Delicious half board food. Each morning you are presented with the evenings menu so you can select your choice . The restaurant relocates to lovely gardens in the hot months and the waitress service is a welcome change to the more common hotel buffet style food . Every night is a really pleasant experience which starts with wine selection where there were plenty of local Calabrian wines to choose from . Great pasta courses , lots of fish and shell fish . Generally there is plenty of choice with little or no repetition of dishes even in a 14 day cycle . Breakfast is equally good and is served on the beautiful roof top garden where there are amazing views. A good section of sweet and savoury choices are on offer …….and there is a coffee machine that makes delicious freshly ground coffee. Breakfast is a real highlight. In July /August you would be crazy to walk to beach because of the intense heat but it is possible. However, the regular and efficient mini-bus takes only 2 minutes. The beach is great and the free , reserved beds and shade on the white sand beach is a great feature. The beach is beautiful and the restaurant there serves clams mussels, fresh fish and all the associated pasta – casual and prefect …. We ate there every day. If you prefer a natural beach where there are no beds or facilities you can walk to one and it takes about 20 minutes . Both beaches was clean and the water beautifully clear. So… to sum up – it is hard to find anything at Piccolo that was disappointing or sub-standard. As long as you are ok with beach and not having a pool and also the fact there isn’t a great deal around the hotel to see or do you will love it . That said …. Tropea is only a 30 minute walk away or use the fast and efficient Piccolo mini bus. Loved Calabria -its an undeveloped part of Italy with beautiful beaches un-spoilt countryside and not too many big hotels . The people are great – the food fantastic and if you want to speak and practice Italian they let you do it and help . Hired are car for one day which was fine but frankly Tropea is by far the nicest the town- so why move around ? Highly recommend this hotel and this area .

Posto spettacolare con paesaggi incredibili Piscina con bar notevole e comoda, tutto molto organizzato cibo molto gradito, torno con qualche chilo in più, camere per niente male e con letti abbastanza comodi un savco di microstrutture come campo polivalente, teatro, parco giochi ecc… Unica pecca la fatica impiegata per muoversi verso le spiagge e verso reception e ristorante per ultima l’animazione spettacolare, ragazzi super gentili e organizzati, nonostante a inizio stagione fossero pochi un sacco di attività fantasiose, spassose e coinvolgenti che non dimenticheró mai. Io e la mia famiglia ci siamo affezionati ai ragazzi dell’animazione e abbiamo fatto amicizia con diverse famiglie, ci siamo perfino lasciati i contatti con gli animatori. In sintesi villagio netoveole da tutti i punti di vista e le mie 5 stelle sono merito della animazione Voto diesci!!

Posto meraviglioso, posizione eccellente tutto da 10 e lode. Grazie mille per la gentilezza e disponibilità di tutti voi.. Bravi ragazzi complimenti di cuore.
