"Fabulous, great service, staff, close to the sea. Absolute relaxation. Highly recommended"

"We went to visit Tropea but were relying on Public Transport to move around; considering that, the location was not SUPER IDEAL, but the neighborhood is quiet and well lit so walking was not an issue at all and it made the rest AMAZING! The staff is super friendly and helpful, the place was clean and the breakfast was very complete, we loved it and would definitely go back! Strongly recommend!"

"A resort that welcomes you with a staff always available to resolve any issues or requests you may have. Sea, relaxation, and professionalism are the foundation of a vacation by the sea and in the sun."

"The room and bathroom were a bit small, with no room for a second bedside table. However, the small balcony was pleasant, as was the on-site restaurant."

"We were staying here on October 2021 with my family and the experience was honestly the most awful vacay experience we've ever had. Food was not good and the location was very bad, but this one incident made us very uncomfortable. Last day of our vacay I saw from the pool, that the door of our room was open. I walked to the room to see what's going on, and there was a old man holding my wallet. He was "repairing" toilet even tho it wasn't broken. He freaked out and shouted to italian that the wallet was on the floor. (It wasn't it was in my purse) We tried to sort this out with the front desk, but they were super weird about the whole incident. Also, talked very badly about us in italian because they didn't know my mom actually understands italian. Later that evening this old couple came to us, and ask if we were the ones who had someone random going thru our belongings. They told us there was 100e missing from their room. So something very shady was clearly going on with this place. Did not feel safe at all. Had to search this hotel again after all this years, and saw another review (italian) about same kinda experience that we had, so decided to let y'all know. "

"Excellent property for those who want to enjoy a well-deserved vacation. The staff is extremely friendly, and above all, cleanliness is paramount. The owners are always ready to offer advice and any information you may need."

"My 3rd stay at this hotel since 2017 and it just gets better. Customer service was excellent throughout, breakfast quality had improved, the restaurant area is far more modern and the bar area in the garden fits very well. The pool area is great for both adults and kids. Can highly recommend paying the extra for superior rooms. Much more spacious than a standard room, excellent view of the sea. This hotel in the view of a time served travel agent meets the requirement of a 4 star hotel despite being a 3 star The hotel is cleaned to a high standard. I saw 3 cleaners working on each room. The excursions the hotel can plan are quite varied and interesting including culinary tours, a trip to the volcanic island of stromboli and also use to an area of a beach that I would describe as being one of the best on mainland Italy. The hotel can also arrange transfers to and from Lamezia and Reggio Calabria airport, as well as the local train station if you opt for not taking a car. Enjoy your stay at La Bussola hotel, you will not be disappointed!"

"A traumatic experience due to the owners' behavior. The owner told my husband, who was speaking with the manager (a 20-year-old woman who is the owner's daughter) about how to resolve the charge for someone who wasn't with us, that the owner took his daughter's phone and told my children's father to come down to reception because he was going to "kick his ass" (using a much more vulgar language, of course). During our stay, we were in two triple rooms, as a group of four adults and two children, ages four and one. We were told on the third night of our stay, the same day the remaining balance was due, that they didn't accept children! This should have been reported upon arrival and at check-in with our passports, including my children's. We didn't wait for the remaining payment to be processed, which was processed instantly. We paid for an extra adult, causing us to lose a night after he made a scene with threats and shouting in front of other guests, my two young children, and my 61-year-old mother-in-law with a heart condition. The staff are wonderful people, kind and attentive, especially the young man at reception who greeted us upon arrival and the breakfast staff. That was the only positive aspect of the nightmare our family just experienced. We will be taking legal action regarding this incident, and I DO NOT recommend risking this man's mistreatment in the event of any misunderstanding with a guest. He is a dangerous individual and I don't believe he is qualified to work with the public."
