D&B LA BUSSOLA

Tropea is the Queen of the Tirrenian Sea of Calabria and therefore it deserves a calm visit: don’t be in a hurry when you stay there, because it is possible that though, you had planned to stay only one day, you will change that plan and stay longer and longer . .
Tropea is unique and the best period to be there is May, also June (less than May), but surely you must avoid the full summer. Oh, another good time is September and October (less than September).
The right place is the D&B LA BUSSOLA
Its location is not Tropea, but very close to it: Capo Vaticano, one of the prettiest sea places in all of Italy, where the nature is gorgeous and, it seems, that we have not eyes large enough to absorb all the beauty of this gorgeous place.
The small and pretty hamlet is called San Nicolò.
The Bed part has a main palace and an annex.

Depending on your desires (and availability) you will choose between these two choices.
The breakfast is very wide and rich.
The dinner part is one of the best restaurants of Calabria.
Seafood is its main characteristic and, once a week there is a special dinner focused on the meals of the true ancient tradition of Calabria.
Even pizza is available, cooked in the wood oven, and it is very good, to be a pizza far from Naples !
To be a temporary citizen of Capo Vaticano is a gorgeous experience and it is sad to leave from there.

D&B Aquila & Edelweiss in Camigliatello Silano

Sixty years; yes it was in 1948 that the restaurant began its activity and a few years later when they added rooms they became the definition of the concept of D&B.
This D&B, D&B AQUILA & EDELWEISS is the monument of hospitality for the whole Sila. Sila is the magnificent mountain area of the Northern part of Calabria.
The little and pretty town, Camigliatello Silano, is the heart of Sila and it is never without activity. In every season there is a good flow of tourism, it never becomes too crowded.
The D’Amico family, owners and patron of the D&B are very kind and care about their guests who receive every kind of smooth strokes.
My suggestion is to stay here at least one week, so that you can appreciate the high quality standing of the D&B AQUILA & EDELWEISS and can enjoy the wonderful Sila.
The Bed part consists of 48 rooms, well equipped and comfortable.
The Dinner part is a little jewel, with its antique atmosphere and its strong attention to every detail so that the guests feel immediately in a fully comfortable.
The drivers of the offering at dinner are the seasons and the area There are the woods for outstanding mushrooms, especially in fall, in addition to great meats and excellent aged cheeses.
There is a good wine list with the great wines of Calabria, Cirò first of all.
Really, to stay here after only few days, one feels quite connected to this very lovely mountain community.
