BV Borgo Del Principe

Прекрасное место и расположение, пусть и немного уединённое. Еда просто восхитительная. НО имейте в виду, что это НЕ курорт с системой «всё включено». Пиво и вино доступны только по системе «всё включено» во время обеда и ужина (в общей сложности три часа в день), бутилированная вода недоступна по утрам. Чай доступен только во время завтрака. Горячие блюда на завтрак после 9 утра не предоставляются. Персонал в целом приветливый, но менеджер ресторана, похоже, пугает и запугивает персонал и очень груб с клиентами, которые не оставляют ему чаевых. В пакете нет бесплатного мороженого или напитков без сахара (кроме воды). Это ОЧЕНЬ дорогой и разочаровывающий отдых по системе «всё включено». Тем не менее, окружающая природа, территория и пляж просто потрясающие.

Borgo del Principe is a lovely garden village hotel. Most of the rooms are located within separate 4-room buildings scattered around the grounds. All of them are above sea level and located in a lush garden, so there is no sea view. There are plenty of birds chirping away though! The hotel has its own beach with free sunloungers and umbrellas, as well as a small pool, which is open when the lifeguard is on duty. There are more sunloungers by the pool. The staff at the hotel are very nice and helpful, a special shout out to the cleaning staff who are super hard working and always willing to help! Most of the staff doesn't speak much English (they try though!), but that is probably because the hotel caters to guests from all over Europe, so I bet they do speak German and French etc :) If you need to have a conversation in English, find Bianca on the front desk, she's great and will definitely help!!! The food at the hotel is exquisite, I loved the evening meals, there was plenty to choose from every night, and the menu changed constantly. If you like Italian cuisine, this is the place to visit! Lunches were also great, we always left with full bellies and smiles on our faces. Breakfasts offered similar choice every morning, but we were happy with salami and cheese sandwiches, tomatoes and mozzarella aplenty, a wide variety of pastries and cakes, and of course Italian coffee. I miss all this food already. The only thing that's not so great about Borgo del Principe is the hotel's location in a small town of Zambrone, which doesn't really have a strip to walk on or any shops apart from a lovely gelateria and a local grocery shop around a 15-20 minutes walk from the hotel. But if your aim is to spend a week on a beach or by the pool interspersed with delicious food, then you're good to go!

The accomodation is in beautiful garden, the staff is helpful, all inclusive does not match - no ice cream, dessert only for dinnet, no prosciuto, for breakfast 2 types of salami and 1 type of cheese (still the same). No shops nearby. The station in Zambrone is about 2 km away, uphill. In the heat og 35 degrees we graduated to Tropea only 1 time. The train leaves in the morning at 7 o' clock and the next at 12 o 'clock. The breakfast is only untill9:00 a.m.

We booked with Tui & on arrival at the airport, the rep advised that our chosen hotel was closed & that Borgo was our destination. This was not the best start but on arrival the surroundings were very lovely. On checking in, it became clear that Borgo is intended for German clients - all of the information in reception is in German. The very blunt receptionist gave us very little information about the hotel so we expected to find this in our room - but no, we returned to ask a series of questions that you would expect were reasonable. Q. What times are meals served? A. The information is on the notice board. Q. But it’s in German Receptionist rolls her eyes and tells us the meal times. Q. What time is the entertainment? A. The entertainment arrives later. Q. What time does it take place? A. We don’t know. Q. Is there entertainment this evening? A. No, tonight is Champions League. After visiting the pool we realised there were no towels so I visited reception again Q. How do we get pool towels please? A. You pay 20 euros for each towel. Q. Can I change them each day? A. No, only once per week. Q. Why didn’t you mention the pool towels when I checked in? A. You did not ask. The restaurant staff were lovely and welcoming and helpful however the reception staff - 2 ladies particularly - were unhelpful and seemed to resent our presence. We used the Tui app to explain how disappointed we were to arrive without any prior warning that our chosen hotel was closed. 48 hours later were offered a move to Tui Magic Life resort just up the road. When we tried to check out a female receptionist was again obstructive, insisting we explain why we wanted to leave. On arrival at Tui Magic Life, we instantly loved it and we were able to forget about Borgo and I would recommend anyone else wishing to stay there to do the same.

Villaggio immerso in un parco molto curato, con piante,fiori e stradine che collegano alle varie camere. Spiaggia molto bella con un mare pulito e colori splendidi. L'animazione tenuta da un gruppo di ragazzi molto simpatici e preparati, con attività adatte a tutte le età. La sera nella zona Teatro hanno realizzato degli spettacoli molto belli e curati nei particolari. La serata di Ferragosto è stata gestita in modo eccellente dagli chef e dai ragazzi dell'animazione. Cucina buona. Pulizia camere buona.

Abbiamo appena lasciato Borgo del Principe dove abbiamo trascorso una settimana piacevole e ricca di sorrisi. Il villaggio, a pochi minuti di macchina da Tropea, è completamente immerso nella natura. Un plauso è obbligatorio farlo al giardiniere che dalla mattina alla sera cura tutto il verde che circonda il parco. Bella la disposizione con mare, piscina, bar e ristorante infondo alla struttura mentre le camere sono disposte nella parte iniziale del villaggio, lontano da rumori e da zone di svago. Comodo il passaggio mare-piscina. Bellissima la spiaggia sempre pulita e con un mare da cartolina. Un plauso anche agli chef che hanno preparato ogni giorno piatti gustosi e sempre abbondanti. Bravi i ragazzi dell'animazione che non discrezione sono stati presenti e hanno cercato di strappare un sorriso sempre a tutti. Bravi soprattutto nella giornata di ferragosto. Le camere sono ampie e ben dislocate ma da rivedere la pitturazione, i bagni ( la doccia in particolar modo) e anche le pulizie. Un'attenzione maggiore sarebbe ben gradita in un 4 stelle. Non sempre disponibili posti in piscina...sarebbe opportuno aumentare le sedute e anche organizzare meglio le zone di copertura in caso di pioggia visto che la sala ristorante, superati gli orari indicati, ti invita gentilmente ad uscire. Speriamo in ogni caso di tornarci il prossimo anno.
