Staff was most friendly and very informative, especially Luis. Wonderful food and amazing views. Close enough to walk to the center for some great shopping but far enough away to get peace and tranquility.

Great views of Tropea downtown perched on cilff, sea, port, and mountains along the coast line. Serene and large room reminiscing monastery residence. Friendly staff eager to give service. Have to drive to downtown for heartful dinner.

Wonderful staff , unique property
Staff was very warm and friendly . Property was very unique and clearly the best in the area. For such a small property the restaurant offered very good evening meals. We would stay again.

There was a committed high level of excellent service in this place. The property is really something to see.
The breakfast and service each morning was excellent
The location is close enough to the middle of Tropea but far enough away that you have tremendous peace and quiet
if you are still looking for a place to stay in Tropea, stop looking...this is the place

This is off the beaten track. It is a true haven. I only wish I had scheduled my trip to spend more time there. It is special. The next time I go to Italy I will try to stay there for a week - and bring my friends!

Villa Paola is a magical place. When you arrive there is a private and easily accessible parking area adjacent to the property. Then you enter and you are afforded a private tour of the incredible property. Thank you Anna! Our room was spectacular. A room complete with a sauna, a private lounge area and an incredible bedroom. Then we experienced arguably the most incredible dining experience of our lives. Grazie Mille Luca, Maria and the entire De’ Minimi Restaurant Team. An evening we will never forget. The next morning we were treated to a spectacular breakfast in our room. Sadly we had to depart however the team was there to say goodbye and offer additional gifts. Then before we officially departed we spent time in the church connected to the property which represents a unique and special history. I have never been so emotional leaving a property. Villa Paola offers an experience that is beyond comparison...it touches your heart and soul. We are already planning our return.
