  : Excellent location and staff were very helpful. Good basic facilities, kitchen needed dishwashing detergent. Premises were clean and spacious, fresh towels and comfortable bed.
  : Terrible mouldy smell that was present all the time.

  : Very nice place, very nice people. They took the luggage the 32 steps up and offered a drink in the (excellen) (wine)bar. I can also recommand the restaurant
  : There was some confussion about the parkings. In fact best is to stop at the parking north (5 minutes walk) and after check-in place the car on the free parking south (15 minutes walk and going up and down). Also for breakfast (there is alarge choice) it was not clear if you had to choose or could combine multiple things.

  : Staff was awesome. Very attentive, ready to accompany you to medical emergency services (my wife had a strong reaction to an insect bite in her lip), and prompt at providing indications and helping any way they could. Location, just a 15-minute walk from Marina di Scilla, which is a gorgeous bay surrounded by a green valley, with the clearest purest sea water (beware of medusas!). Room was spacious enough, an "open space" bedroom with kitchen and dining room, fridge and freezer. Mattress was perfect. Most vacation places we booked in the past, mattresses were too soft. Theirs was just perfect. The head of the bed was quite original (a door!). They also have a bottega with local food specialties (I was very pleasently surprised with their arancino al pesce spada). Breakfast was good, as was dining (swordfish hamburger and other plates were really yummy).
  : Let's talk coffee: It was awful EVERYWHERE, not just Scilla but Tropea as well. I'm a fan of Colombian and Mexican coffee, but I can usually drink any coffee blend they have in italian bars. Maybe it was the heat, but every cup I tasted in Scilla felt as if they'd roasted the beans with a flamethrower (espresso machine included). Cappuccino was pretty decent at Casa Vela though!

  : Ideal location. Friendly and welcoming host.

Disappointing

  : Close to ferry and excellent views.
  : Bare bones stuff- soap satchel, no hair drier. If the owner can make it more lively and put some investment in the property it will look great. Poor quality lightening and below average looking place. Felt like an old student dorm. Checking in was not smooth. Had to call the host using my international number to make local call for them to come and check us in.
