Villaggio Marina Del Capo

On Italy’s Tyrrhenian coast in Ricadi (Capo Vaticano), minutes from Grotticelle Beach and about 12 km south of Tropea. This seaside village–style beach inn sits above a private sandy bay with rocky outcrops and easy access to Baia di Riaci and Riaci Beach.

Bungalows and guestrooms cascade down through Mediterranean shrubs and fig trees toward the water. Accommodations are simple and comfortable, with private verandas or patios and kitchenettes in many rooms—think fridge and coffee/tea maker for easy mornings. Family-friendly touches include a children’s play area, playrooms and a lively mini-club (active June 22–Sept 14).

Seasonal outdoor swimming pool, private beach, snack bar and evening entertainment set the tone for relaxed seaside days. On-site spa and fitness center, table tennis, tour desk, on-site parking and a nearby supermarket add practical perks. Expect sea-breeze mornings and poolside afternoons.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property keeps you connected. The front desk offers tour/ticket assistance but is staffed for limited hours.

An on-site restaurant and bar/lounge serve local Calabrian flavors alongside a cafe and snack bar for light bites. Continental breakfasts are available for a fee, and the bar is handy for sunset cocktails after a beach day.
