This property is fantastic. The pool and beach area are beautiful and relaxing. Our room was good size as well as a great bathroom with a separate shower (large size) and tub. We had a nice balcony as well with an ocean view. The views of Stromboli and the other islands was great. The breakfast buffet was outstanding with a chef making custom omelets and crepes, very fresh fruit and nice pastries. The staff was very good- Noemi at the pool bar was outstanding!

6/10 Good

In terms of value, I would say this didn't really love up to what it costs. It was absolutely beautiful; perfect beach, good amenities, clean pool and affordable options for water activities ie paddleboarding, free towel service, etc. But—when you're in the south of Italy, near Tropea, the land of delicious, sweet red onions, and Pizzo, known for their delicious truffle dessert—it's very disappointing that the food at the resort doesn't reflect this. Because it was offseason (end of September) only one restaurant was open for dinner and that restaurant happened to be the fine dining ristorante Mantineo. The food was prepared in advance, you could tell, and overall anticlimactic. Portions were insanely small—I understand this is a fine dining restaurant but when the food is not rich in flavor and small, it leaves you hungry. The beach bar Stromboli was open during the day, it was simply fine. It's not difficult to have basic items on the menu ie cozze vongole, aglia e olio, simply ragu. Not sure why the menu was overcomplicated and bad. we were paying ~€20 a dish at dinner and after 4 dishes our stomachs still felt empty. At the restaurant, which had an extensive wine list, we were told there was nothing left except one €150 bottle. Sorry, but no.

Great position
First impression was great, apart from the winding road in and out but view amazing. Staff at reception were fine and we got checked in quickly. Room great. We were here for 10 days which was fine but the breakfast menu never changed and it got very boring, staff in restaurant were not very efficient and you had to wait a long time to get drinks both in the evening and morning. Food was not topped up very quickly so had to go back several times sometimes to get what you wanted. Drinks at the bar were very expensive as was lunch if you had it. Beach towels changed everyday. Room was always kept clean. Kettle provided when asked. Great views from the rooms over the sea.

Great Location, Private Beach, Very Scenic....BUT!
We had a pleasant 2 day stay, unfortunately experienced problems at checkout, which is the only reason I could not recommend this. At checkout staff attempted to charge prepaid reservation, I recommend to be aware of possible billing issues, I was given receipt for my charges with name of another guest. Attempted to get a correct receipt issued during the last 4 weeks and hotel refuses to correct error. Make sure all info is correct before leaving hotel. Customer support experience with hotel after stay has been poor.

Beautiful hotel amazing setting needs improving
3 days out of a month visit to Italy , this was the most expensive hotel we stayed in during this visit unfortunatley did fulfill all our expectations having stayed at Sofitel hotels in the past. Wifi was mostly non existent , air condition poor made noise but did not cool the room, the food was mostly cold with some poor choices such as sliced mushrooms out of tins for breakfast , serving dishes empty very often , not up to the standard expected from such a chain.

Relaxing break
We had an excellent week's stay at this hotel. The quality of the accommodation was good, the architectural design of the hotel is particularly impressive. We chose to book full board and particularly enjoyed the healthy selection of food on offer at lunchtimes. We enjoyed the relaxed feel of the resort and the modern and comfortable facilities. We appreciated the 'low key' entertainment in the evening - this was very tasteful, comprising of a piano soloist. He was excellent, it created just the right atmosphere in the evenings to relax and enjoy a cocktail! A few things to note - there is not much in the local vicinity, this wasn't a problem for us as we were there for the relaxation. There are only 2 small bottles of water included during your stay - we helped ourselves to the daily restocked water in the minibar only to find the full quantity on our bill at checkout....... Wifi coverage in certain areas of the resort is a little sporadic. Finally, there was no information about the resort in the room - it would have been good to know about the spa offerings, activities, meal times etc without having to ask every time! Overall - a great holiday and would recommend the Capovaticano

One week's stay in June.
Great hotel with super pool and beach setting. Worth having a room with sea views as the sunsets and views of Stromboli and Lipari are not to be missed. Room was large and very comfortable and fitted with all the usual amenities. The maid service was excellent and bed linen changed very regularly. Good safety cover at the beach and pool for unsupervised swimmers or emergencies. If anything was below par it was the restaurant. The choice of food for all meals was more varied than anyone needed . It was self-service which again was ok but I would have liked to have had the choice of an al a carte restaurant that was more private and deserved by the rating of the hotel in general.. The existing area for meals was fine for breakfast but pretty ordinary for supper. The area was tight so the coming and goings of people helping themselves meant that it was far too push and shove. If you don't have children with you then those there can be annoying when the kids club has not taken them in. I did enjoy the poolside lunchtime restaurant. The food was good as was the service and menu choice at reasonable prices. Hotel a little cut off but trips to Tropea were daily and worth going. Coast around Capovaticano was super. Good place to try out your Italian. Not like Sorrento where English is the norm.
