Hotel Marinella - Private Free Parking - Grotticelle Beach 200 m

I would like to tell a few words about this wonderful hotel Marinella. It's really great and worth visiting and even revisiting! In my subjective opinion everything is perfect there. The room is cosy, clean and with all necessary conveniences. The food is really delicious and various with lots of fresh seafood, fruit and vegetables, pasta, rissoto, fish, meat, etc., everything was extremely tasty and cooked with soul! The sea is only 5 minutes walk downhill, the beach is clean, the views and landscapes are fantastic! My daughter and I are really grateful to Giacomo, Teodora and Madi for everything they have done for us, they are the best! The atmosphere in this hotel is really friendly, calm and peaceful... If we had such an opportunity to return to Marinella again we would do it with great pleasure undoubtedly!!!

I went with a friend, first holiday in Italy, the hotel is an hour transfer from the airport so we booked it through the hotel, excellent service, comfy Mercedes so no complaints. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the staff are lovely, big thanks to Theadora on reception, an absolute star. The hairdryer was faulty, it was replaced, again thank you Theadora, however, I would recommend taking your own hairdryer as I lost the will to live trying to use the hotel one. The hotel is situated on the hillside with stunning views, but it's a steep road down to the beach and the hotel charges for the use of the sun beds provided there, they also charge for the little road train to bring you back up the hill from the beach, so we stayed around the pool area which we had to ourselves most days. We were the only English people there, the other guests were German, this seems to be the norm for the hotel as the dinner menu was in German. The food at dinner was ok, the ships bell is rung at 19.30 and everyone queues to get salad and whatever else is on the menu for the starters, as there were no labels on any of the dishes we didn't know what a lot of things were, but we tried everything, it's definitely catering for German tourists, there was also a pasta dish served at tables and usually a choice of meat or fish, everyone gets the same dessert, we didn't starve but I wouldn't say it was great. Because of the remoteness of the hotel there's no bars or restaurants or a shop, it's quite a decent walk up the hill to the bus stop and the train station and the hotel will arrange taxis for you. We had a lovely meal at a restaurant about a half mile walk away up the hill, but apart from that you're stuck with eating in the hotel. The beds were firm in the extreme, but the room was spacious with a balcony and very clean, there's no lift and lots of steps outside so it's definitely not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. We had a relaxing week which is what we wanted but it would have been better if there had been a bit more around the hotel so you had a choice for eating and drinking. If you're after a lively holiday this is definitely not the place to go, if you're after peace and quiet and like walking up and down hills it's perfect.

After I had a very bad experience in a nearby agriturismo I was lucky enough to to find this B&B hotel in Capo Vaticano well my staying was perfect the staff was well accommodating and I stayed an extra day for the all experience I would recommend this hotel place very much and the waiters mostly named Anthony ware superb I would go back to this place anytime

Accoglienza nn proprio esaltante.....disguidi sulla camera.....poi sistemati nei due giorni successivi! Il personale è stato sempre disponibile ed attento ad ogni richiesta. Cene molto abbondanti sia nelle portate che nella diversificazione. La qualità del cibo molto alta!! il mare o la spiaggia è purtroppo l'unico neo, nn proprio vicina da raggiungere a piedi e molto piccola ed affollata. Per stare meglio bisogna spostarsi su altre spiagge con il mezzo proprio! La piscina è solo una vaschetta da bagno e nn quella che fanno vedere in foto che invece appartiene ad altra struttura ! consiglio di prestare buona attenzione agli extra giornalieri!

Dopo un anno di lavoro di mia moglie,io sono dipendente INPS, cercavamo di passare 10 giorni in tutto relax. Eravamo già stati al Marinella hotel nel 2018 e sapevo delle potenzialità di questa struttura .... Soddisfatte in pieno, e anche oltre , le nostre aspettative. Ricevimento ottimo e molto attento alle nostre esigenze, la cucina ottima con squisiti piatti sia di carne che di pesce. Ottimi camerieri, attenti e professionali nel servizio.... Le camere pulite in modo accurato. La presenza del titolare molto presente ma discreta. Insomma, aspettative soddisfatte in pieno, consiglio l'hotel Marinella vivamente. Continuate così.......

Se ti vuoi sentire meglio che a casa, sia per una vacanza che per un weekend rigenerante è il posto adatto. Ambiente familiare, personale disponibile,tutti pronti ad accoglierti nel migliore dei modi. Cibo ottimo, ricco buffet per colazioni e antipasti e servizio al tavolo per primi e secondi piatti. Pulizia al top. Vicino alla meravigliosa spiaggia di Grotticelle facilmente raggiungibile a piedi in discesa, ritorno più impegnativo in salita ma con disponibilità di navetta. A 5 minuti dalla stazione di Ricadi da cui è possibile spostarsi in treno per raggiungere le spiagge più belle della Costa degli Dei, Tropea e Reggio Calabria. Ci vado 3 volte l'anno, è diventato la mia seconda casa.Consigliatissimo!!! Silvia
