This former convent has been transformed into a luxury boutique hotel overlooking the sea. The gardens are spectacular and the views are incomparable. It’s far enough away from the town center thanks makes it a quiet retreat but close enough to get to within a few minutes.

The grounds were amazing. The food you are served is mostly grown on the property and every detail and flavour is carefully thought out. Our room was massive, the bathroom was small. The staff couldn't be more helpful. Make sure you eat dinner at the restaurant, its a must. It's a 10 minute walk to the beach (not the easiest walk) and a 10-15 minute walk to town.

Beautiful Hotel in need of Senior Management

The hotel is beautiful and the staff is very accommodating. But we felt that no adult supervision was present. We were upgraded to a beautiful suite. While beautiful, the TV didn’t work, the remote needed batteries. I asked 3 times and eventually went and bought my own. AND the suite had a steam room which also didn’t work. And the air conditioning also was not good. We felt awkward asking the staff for help since there were very few of them and ALL were very young. I don’t want to give this hotel a bad rating BUT senior management is sorely missing.

Great views of Tropea downtown perched on cilff, sea, port, and mountains along the coast line. Serene and large room reminiscing monastery residence. Friendly staff eager to give service. Have to drive to downtown for heartful dinner.

Staff was most friendly and very informative, especially Luis. Wonderful food and amazing views. Close enough to walk to the center for some great shopping but far enough away to get peace and tranquility.

There was a committed high level of excellent service in this place. The property is really something to see. The breakfast and service each morning was excellent The location is close enough to the middle of Tropea but far enough away that you have tremendous peace and quiet if you are still looking for a place to stay in Tropea, stop looking...this is the place
