We ended our Europe trip with a week at Hotel Borgo di Santa Barbara and it was the perfect choice. The property is absolutely beautiful and peaceful, a great place to unwind. You can relax by the pool or head to Tropea beach, which is just a short drive away. The breakfast each morning was delicious with a variety of options, many of them homemade. The family who owns and runs the hotel is incredibly welcoming and their hospitality really stands out. Everything was also very clean and well taken care of. We had such a wonderful stay and would love to return someday.

Staff and owners were amazing. Great day trips provided at a great value. Walking at night not possible walking is very hilly, but very enjoyable. Great location, especially if you have a vehicle if you don’t know bus service available walking is your alternative.

The hotel is excellent. The property owners were always ready to help or give suggestions. There’s a great restaurant on site for dinners, they also have a complimentary breakfast. It’s a quiet area a couple miles outside town, but the owner will take you in his van anywhere you want

Room and shared areas were clean and beautiful. The view is simply stunning! The restaurant on site is delicious and the staff is kind. The hotel is not conveniently walkable to town or the beach - a car might be necessary for getting around. The resort pool and pool chairs could’ve used a little cleaning. Other than that, it was a perfect stay!

Really enjoyed our stay here! Room was beautifully decorated and comfortable. Onsite staff are very friendly and accommodating with needs. They set up shuttles to get us to and from Tropea beach and main square on multiple occasions which made travelling stress free. The onsite restaurants food was delicious so we ate all our dinners there. Overall, the hotel offers everything you would need. We had an exceptional stay and will definitely choose to stay here again should we wind up back in the area in the future.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Borgo di Santa Barbara and I can't express how wonderful our experience was! From the moment we arrived, the staff (special thanks to Martina, Aurelio, and Barbara) was pleasant and very helpful. The rooms were nicely decorated, spacious, and clean. The restaurant on the hotel's property was nothing short of amazing. It was our chosen spot for both breakfasts and dinners while staying at Borgo di Santa Barbara. Overall, my stay at Borgo di Santa Barbara exceeded all my expectations. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with fantastic food and outstanding service! Peter

We loved this hotel, very nice room, great and friendly staff, restaurant onsite was useful and food excellent, great breakfast as well. Note - It is next to a railway line so trains going through early hours of the morning which woke the local roosters which in turn got the neighbourhood dog going! not much sleep after that - not really a complaint because everything else at this property was great.

I cannot say enough about this hotel and the family that owns it and operates it. It is truly a full family operation so it works like a well oiled machine. They are friendly. They speak English German Italian. They will accommodate you with whatever you need. The location is perfect getting to all of the surrounding areas the restaurant included with the hotel is wonderful great food everything is homemade and grown fresh and local. We cannot say enough about this hotel, and I will definitely be visiting again I highly recommend the boat cruise that they will offer you and we actually ate dinner in the hotel every night fresh local food.
