Unfurling its charms to canny holidaymakers in search of unspoilt scenery and quietly gorgeous beaches, Calabria’s hushed attractions are clear at Hotel Marinella. The region’s pristine beaches can be glimpsed from the hotel’s balconies, the sandy stretches laid out in golden crescents flanked by green-covered cliffs. The villages wending their way along the coast are treasure troves of southern Italian culture and tradition, with cuisine traditionally chilli-spiced and flavoured with locally-grown red onions.

The Hotel
Whitewashed and terracotta roofed, Hotel Marinella sits in southern Italian splendour, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. The limpid waters and white sands of the Grotticelle bays are a mere 200 metres away, and balcony rooms offer views over the sea. The peaceful charm of the hotel is demonstrated through the simple, authentic Italian food served in the restaurant, with beach barbeques and tennis taking place on sunny days. The hotel also has a small outdoor swimming pool, and can lend guests beach equipment such as canoes, windsurfing equipment, and pedal boats. Local adventures can begin with the hotel’s transfer service that spirits guests to local stations and the beach.
The Stay
Standard double rooms can be cooled down in the heat with air conditioning, and guests can also enjoy the fresh marine breezes that float in off the sea. Rooms are replete with facilities, including an en suite bathroom, a colour TV, and a safe. Half board includes a delectable buffet breakfast each morning, and a dinner of Italian cuisine in the evening.

Groupon Recommends
Revel in the area’s natural beauty by lounging on the beach or leaving soft imprints in the golden sand during a twilight walk. To see under the surface, take to the water for a scuba dive and discover treasures including enchanting coral formations and perhaps fascinating wrecks. Other sporting opportunities include kite surfing and windsurfing, or exploring caves in a canoe. Also consider a trip inland to the sprawling Riserva Naturale Marchesale, where a lush landscape of slopes, valleys, and streams provides a natural habitat for wild boar, owls, and curious humans.

Groupon Top Tip
A train service running along the Calabrian coast connects the towns and makes for good way to see the area, particularly as driving can be a challenge for those unused to the roads.
Reviews
Hotel Marinella received a king-sized 4/5 from TripAdvisors, while Booking.com visitors awarded it a comfortable 7.3/10. Though few reviews are in English, a number of the visitors praised the quality of the food and gave special mention to the hotel’s coastal location.
Excellent location near the beach, room had a nice balcony with seaview [sic]
