Hotel La Praia

We came out of season so didn't get all services available. The lido was closed and did not have any sunbeds or umbrella's available to us. Thankfully we had a hire car and could drive to Tropea beach where all facilities were still open. The accommodation was sufficient and clean the only issue being we could not use the oven as it would trip the electrics. Fantastic views and comfy beds.

My wife and I had used Hotels.ca to book this residence. After having paid the non-refundable amount for the 2 rooms we had booked, the owner of the hotel notified us by email that there is an additional 10 euro per person charge for towels and linens. This amount was undisclosed prior to booking, and since we were a party of 7 (split between 2 rooms) an additional undisclosed charge of 70 euros was unacceptable. We had hotels.ca contact the owner to get him to give us the refund, but he refused. We also reached out ourselves by phone (my wife speaks fluent Italian) and asked him to refund the amount as he did not disclose it prior to us purchasing this non-refundable room. He blatantly and belligerently refused to give a refund saying that there was nothing we could do about it. Prior to booking this hotel, I would highly recommend you look elsewhere as you too may be caught up in to paying undisclosed fees. In addition, the shameful conduct of this establishment merits no business from honest, hard working folks who earned their vacations. Up to this point, the owner has made no effort to give us a refund or carry himself in an honest and professional manner.

We have a golden retriever and we are looking for structures/lidos that welcome us without too many limitations for our four-legged friend. We stayed from 19 to 26 August and we were pleasantly surprised by this structure which boasts a pet friendly lido at 300/400 meters which allows our dogs to bathe without restrictions. Very good and varied food, we really enjoyed the theme nights: Calabrian dinner, rustic dinner and gala evening. Our compliments to the dining room staff, the really sweet Argentinian boy. Certainly to improve the breakfast which is a bit limited and the maintenance and cleaning of the rooms, for the rest we had a great time. We found great hospitality from all the staff, a beautiful sea and an excellent location. A week of total relaxation!!!

Good value for money. Beach nearby a few hundred meters away, which can be easily done on foot even with children. Much of the route is in the shade. The facility is clean and the staff is courteous. The swimming pool is ideal for children if you don't want to go to the beach. The beach facility is very welcoming and equipped. Prepared and fun animation

Positive experience, food with good flavor, varied and plentiful. A good structure, friendly staff. The walk towards the sea is wonderful, wonderful vegetation, possibility of going down to the beach by car and you can always find parking. The transparent sea. A celiac with us who has always eaten with peace of mind. Entertainment with wonderful guys who put their soul into it. We stayed very well.
