The courtesy, warm reception, and the tradition of hospitality, will really make an unforgettable and pleasant holiday in Calabria. The hotel is situated next to the sea at Capo Vaticano (0,900 mts) near Tropea (7 kms). Particular attention is devoted to the cleaning of the rooms, every other part of the hotel and to the guest. This is "three star superior" hotel, far 500 mts from the centre of the village of San Nicolò of Ricadi. It can be easily reached by car as it near the road which goes from Tropea to Vibo Valentia and is about 28 kilometres from the latter.

Here you can admire the unspoilt countryside along the splendid Capo Vaticano and Tropea coast, famous world wide for its beauty. Like Tropea, also Capo Vaticano , the last outpost on the Gulf of Sant' Eufemia, can boast an international reputation, fully justified not only by the unchanging charm of the places, but also by the modern tourist structures which have revamped the local economy, once based solely on farming and food products, confirming its vocation for tourism. The sunset from here over "Stromboli" is considered the eight wonder of the world. The crystal clear sea and the marvellous beaches, as well as the professional way in which the hotel is run, will make your holiday with us in Capo Vaticano and Tropea….an unforgettable experience.Once a week at the La Bussola Hotel a Calabrian themed night is held. During the Calabria Night there are traditional songs, folk dancing, local foods of Calabria that range from sweet to spicy, and delicious local home made wine. The event is open to both hotel guests and to the public.What really characterizes us in the kitchen, always genuine, abundant and juicy, ingredients able to satisfy the most demanding gourmets too.

Moreover, we offer for our clients, a big porch on the green, with small tables and comfortable chairs, a pleasant and calm area for who appreciate a glass of good local wine, or a cocktail. It is a good place for tasting an aperitif, long drink, etc., or to taste a good coffee or a "Tartufo of Pizzo" (it is a local ice cream from Pizzo Calabro, near Tropea) after lunch or supper. Every day you can choose from a different menu of fresh fish, Calabrian, national, and international specialties.
