Tropea,
is called the "Pearl of the Tyrrhenian Sea" and its old
town towers imposingly on the steeply sloping rocky coast. The Cathedral
of Santa Maria dell'Isola, perched on a cliff peninsula, exudes a
very special charm, a feast for the eyes with an exciting history.
Wide sandy beaches at the foot of the cliffs, which draws in and around
Tropea, invite you to spend the day with swimming and from the cliffs
you can see the volcanic island Stromboli lying in the sea. (Lamezia
Terme Airport 55 km) |

Villagio
La Pizzuta *** - ****
is very prettily built in the style of a village on a rocky plateau
in Parghelia. Formerly a small family pension, the hotel has been
continuously expanded for decades, and even today there is a family-Italian
atmosphere.
The bungalow-like rooms are distributed harmoniously in the Mediterranean
garden and every room is located very close to the garden green.
With a lift through the rock and after 150 m of green footpath you
get to the beautiful beach. The standard rooms have 3 stars, the
deluxe rooms 4 stars with a location close to the elevator, the
few superior deluxe rooms are best located, most close to the sea
and have 4 stars.
La Pizzuta is situated 600 m from the village of Parghelia, and
about 2 km from Tropea.
