They made sure you stay with them was first class service!! The pool was so relaxing. The beach look like paradise. The breakfast, lunch & dinner was Michelin star rated. I’m looking forward to going back to this resort. I truly enjoyed Giancarlo & Settimo , who went over and above to provide quality service!!
The reception and check-in team were incredibly welcoming, friendly, flexible, helpful and attentive. They ensured for a great experience and stay. Thank you to Marika and her colleagues.
Beach front hotel . Amazing ocean view restaurant that u must try . Friendly staff . Definitely worth it .

The AC was not cool which made for an uncomfortable hot night. Had the windows cracked and then all I heard was buzzing mosquitos. Very annoying. Other than that great location by the beach and it’s free to lay out under an umbrella with chairs. They have a private beach allocated to them and they are close to a dive shop and some good restaurants close by. Room was great aside from the lackluster AC which in turn brought the buzzing mosquitoes. I’d book again though.

Overall nice stay
We enjoyed our stay at hotel Ipomea. The facilities were clean and the staff were friendly. The beach is nice, but quite narrow and not ideal for small children, as there are a lot of stones (the beach in Tropea were much better). The location is not ideal if you plan to eat out, as there are only 2 restaurants around. Some services offered by the hotel - like the airport shuttle - seemed very expensive to us, and we preferred to book elsewhere. Overall, we had a nice stay, but we won’t come back here due to the location.
Beautiful family owned property. Food was delicious, service was amazing. Needs to be a little updated. But it was great. To get to the property is a lot. But all in all we had a blast!

Not impressed
Poor value for money.
The car parking is not included and is paid as extra with no-one in charge of it, so often no space to park, or space blocked.
A 4 stars hotel should provide basic kits such toothpaste/toothbrush but they don't and you will need to buy it in the expensive bazar.
The overall impression was luck of organization and no willingness to offer an appropriate service for the price paid.
The food was very good and the waiters were very polite. The animation provided was also good.
Great to go with family. Near from Tropea which beach is so gorgeous. The hotel is very comfortable. Nice pool. Good food. We recommend.

Great location! Internet access was non-existent. Advertised WiFi in common areas never worked; this makes future stays in this hotel highly improbable.There was ridiculous service charge for washing beach towels, which is not expected for the hotels priced in this range.Staff was friendly.
In die Jahre gekommen
Dusche fiel auseinander
Schrankgriff hatten wir in der Hand beim öffnen
Zu teuer finde ich für das was wir hatten
Waren aber nur 1 Nacht dort
La struttura necessità di un importante rinnovamento.
Il check-in è stato lentissimo. Il personale non è reattivo e non disponibile: abbiamo pagato una cifra spropositata, degna in un albergo di ben altra categoria. La colazione è povera e mal organizzata. Il punto mare è davvero bello e la struttura non è degna di questa bella posizione.
Abbiamo trascorso una giornata splendida: pranzo nella terrazza sul mare (praticamente nel mare!!!), pomeriggio nella spiaggia privata dell'hotel e tuffo in piscina prima dell'aperitivo. Cena sul mare con incantevole tramonto con vista sulle Isole Eolie. Speriamo di tornare per una vacanza più lunga!

Personeel is SUPER , en vooral de barman Guanluca die speciale cocktails maakt!
Respect voor al het personeel dat toch iedere dag in de hitte klaar staat voor de gasten en zeer lange dagen maakt.Minder is de airco in het complex, werkt niet echt goed. En men spreekt amper een andere taal buiten het Italiaans. Erg jammer dat men het ontbijt niet buiten nuttigen kan.

Met eigen strand en zwembad.
Vriendelijk personeel aan de receptie en junior staf voor de bediening en aan de bar. De management van het restaurant kan wat beter en vriendelijker.
My husband and I stayed there for 2 weeks and was a very nice and relaxing experience. The hotel has a small and clean beach; a swimming pool, with an area for children; the breakfast is very fresh and varied, satisfying different tastes. They also have a spa and a massage service: the beautician Federica is really good. The best of all is the hotel staff, it is excellent, always kind and helpful. Definitively, if we can, we will go back!
