Solid option for costa degli dei
Functional apartment with sea view and patio. The kitchen has everything to prepare meals. Comfortable mattresses and a fabulous pool area were the highlights for us. Great location to visit spectacular beaches and very responsive owner and property manager. The property has one single AC unit in the kitchen. But it is sufficient to efficiently cool down the entire home. The internet is fast and stable. Thanks Jason for a great vacation.

Ricadi Bella
We spent 8 Days in Ricadi and loved every day. Peter was great with helping us with all our queries including local restaurants and even helping us set up our wifi. The house has a TV which has over 50000 movies and all channels from around the world. Annamaria was very helpful also, although she only spoke Italian (lucky for me im Italian), Google translate would be necessary; she was very hospitable and was always there if we needed anything or had questions. The property was pretty central to all the beautiful beaches including Tropea and Capo Vaticano, Ricadi beach is also a hidden treasure. If you do stay here please go to bar pizzeria Ristorante Paradise just up the road, great food and very well priced. Thank you Peter, Annamaria and Angelo

Sanitäre Installation schlecht gewartet
Ankunft Samstag Nachmittag Betreuung OK. Objekt mit Raumeinteilung für 5 Personen optimal mit 2 Badezimmer. Nicht positiv war unter anderem: -Parkplatz Grösse, wenn ich für 5 Personen buche fahre ich nicht mit Kleinwagen. Platz zu klein. -Zu Beginn kein Internet konnten selbst herausfinden wie das Ganze funktioniert - katastrophale sanitäre Installationen wie nur tropfende Dusche, kaum richtiger Wasserstrahl, zu wenig Wasser. -stark beschmutzte Liege im Aufenthaltsbereich -Waschmaschiene rann und verlor Wasser im ganzen Appartement. Mussten alles selber aufwischen. Q (Ersatz für andere Maschiene wurde organisiert innerhalb 24h) Top Leistung. -2 Tage später im anderen Badezimmer Toiletten Spühlkasten defekt mit erneuter Überschwemmung. Selbst Reinigung. Meine Erwartungen waren demzufolge absolut nicht erfüllt. Nach mehrmaliger Kontaktaufnahme mit Peter in Irland, sehr unhöflich Kommentare seinerseits, werde ich absolut keine Werbung für ihre Organisation weitergeben. Fotomaterial vorhanden. Ich erwarte eine Stellungnahme und erwarte eine finanzielle Entschädigung. Das war der Preis absolut nicht wert. Mit freundlichen Grüssen

Sehr schöner Urlaub ...
Das Ferienhaus entspricht der Beschreibung und ist mit allem ausgestattet, was notwendig ist! Kleiner Tipp für die Küche: eine große Pfanne wäre super! Für 4 Personen haben wir uns da schwer getan. In der Anlage wird der Müll getrennt, was wir sehr begrüßt haben, aber ringsum in der ganzen Gegend wird der Großteil auf der Straße entsorgt. Für uns in der heutigen Zeit leider nicht nachvollziehbar! :-( Die 10 Minuten zum Strand sind nicht zu schaffen, außer man legt den Weg im Eiltempo zurück, was bei 30 Grad keinen Spaß macht. Es geht wirklich steil bergab und dann leider auch wieder hoch. Der Strand vor Ort war jetzt in der Hochsaison dicht besiedelt. Wir haben unseren Traumstrand in Zambrone gefunden und dafür eine 30-minütige Fahrt in Kauf genommen. Das Meer ist wirklich traumhaft! Auch der Pool, der zur Anlage gehört ist sehr angenehm, um sich zwischendurch mal abzukühlen und der kurze Weg über die Straße kann in Badekleidung zurück gelegt werden. Die Dame vor Ort, die sich um die Gäste kümmert, ist fabelhaft! Sie ist sehr bemüht, kümmert sich sofort um alles und ist dazu noch sehr witzig und weiß viel über die Gegend zu erzählen. Es hat immer Spaß gemacht, sie zu sehen! Herzlichen Dank nochmal dafür an Patricia! Supermärkte und Restaurants sind in der Nähe vorhanden, aber ein Auto ist trotzdem zu empfehlen. Ein Pluspunkt ist hier auch die Abstellmöglichkeit in der Anlage mit gesicherter Zufahrt! Alles in allem ein erholsamer, schöner Urlaub!

al di sotto delle aspettative
villa a schiera e non singola, piu' piccola di quanto non fatto apparire, con un problema importante di odori di scarico fognario sul secondo bagno, fatto costruire successivamente in una delle camere matrimoniali, dovuto ad errore d'impostazione dell' impianto, con poca pendenza e senza presa d'aria sulla colonna principale per migliorare il deflusso dei liquidi.

Very Clean and well maintained!
Beautiful spot on the hills with 5 individual houses. Appartement building along the pool side. Beaches are close. Families were around and welcome. House had everything needed. Patricia was looking after us in a very nice way. See you again in the near future.

What you see is what you get
Overall we're very pleased with our stay in Santa Maria di Ricadi with our children (aged 3 to 7). The description and pictures of the house match well with real life: The interior is recently refurbished and in very good condition. Things we appreciated: - The spaceous common pool area, which includes a section for toddlers. During our stay there was rarely more than 2-3 families at the pool simultaneously. - The helpfullness of the local manager (who handles key hand-over e.t.c.) - The small lawn in front of the house where the kids could play - The quiet location - The dish washer - The two sun umbrellas we could bring to the beach Good to know things: - The pool area is located across the street (still within "swim-suit walking" distance) - The hill down to the beach is steep, don't count on being able to walk uphill in the summer heat. So, anything negative? Only minor details: low water pressure in the taps and shower, poor garbage handling (not specific for this house but a general problem for the region) and a vitroceramic stove with very un-intuitive touch buttons that took a while to understand.
