โ€œThis family-run establishment strikes me as a particularly good choice in Capo Vaticano, not least for its proximity to both the beach and Tropea. I noticed that culinary experiences are a point of emphasis here, from the A' La Carte restaurant to the sushi, and with wine tasting besides. Add in the thoughtful family amenities like a children's pool, and it becomes an easy recommendation.โ€
