Praia Art Resort

Spacious room with fantastic bed. The layout is a bit strange with an unusual large tub on the balcony. Beautiful beach. Food was good but not noteworthy. Excellent service all around. The only downside is that the area surrounding the hotel is run down and not welcoming.

Beautiful & pretty quiet Hotel, with amazing rooms set in a “Albergo diffuso" style, modern concrete, with private gardens/ yards some included outside pools or baths/hot tubs. Lovely touches like towels for beach, allocated beach loungers/parasol with room number, fantastic beach & pool area and good food and very happy, helpful staff. Negatives- for a 5 star extra touches like a rug and two chairs & maybe a coffee table in room as a lot of space with just concrete floor and one chair. No coffee or milk in room only tea, bed was lop sided and uncomfortable, blind was broken. Seemed under staffed by pool/dinning area waited an hour for food one night. Staff seem to miss a trick by you having to get their attention to order a drink by pool/sea areas, they don't ask you. Only having one restaurant to order from was exhausted after a couple of days. Breakfast was a very slow process as again under staffed, have to queue up to be served and then they charge you extra for things on menu like bacon/pancakes! Area has nothing to offer and can only go anywhere by car. Taxi was very expensive, even just to go 15 minutes to La Castella-Also not enough organised trips, difficult to find where to go, even with extensive research. Again missing a trick here as I would have booked a few tours if it was organised and simple

Excellent stay for our family all around, great smooth service, michelin restaurant was amazing, ate there twice, but the pool restaurant (osteria) was awesome too, loved the beach bar with bartender playing congas. The beach is very close, in fact it is a direct part of the resort, clean, not crowded at all. The boat trip with Salvatore was a cherry on top. We loved our stay. We definitely recommend this resort.

We came as guests...we left as friends. My daughters and I spent three nights at Praia Art Resort on our trip to Calabria. The resort is spotless, beds are comfortable and beach cabana beds a plus! It was by far the most welcoming resort on the island. From our initial welcome visit with the front desk staff to housekeeping employees, everyone was wonderful. We enjoyed the most amazing seven course meal in the main restaurant with a full view of the chefs preparing each course. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were equally amazing at the poolside restaurant! And I would be remiss to not give a big shout out to Emilio, Giuliano, Anthony and Massimo for treating me and my daughters like royalty! Thank you all for providing us with a memorable stay! Diana, Natalie and Nadia!

it was a shot...never know....turns out the pictures on their website doesnt do them justice. great service....wonderful resort..i hate to say how great it is in fear of it becoming flooded...the michelin star resteraunt was well worth it. great meal and service. beach bartender cant be beat

The Praia Art Resort was a breath of fresh air. Nothing was over looked; from the check in process to the luxurious rooms, the ambiance at the pool and the comfort of the beach beds everything was top notch. The breakfast and lunch offered healthy, tasty options. We cannot wait to return on our next trip to Calabria. We feel as though we found a hidden gem!
