Amazing cute boutique Hotel! We got a huge room with a great seating place outside, the stuff was super caring and service was wonderful! The hotel beach was super close and comfortable with beach bar, as well breakfast was very good with great service, highly recommended

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!

More accuracy and cleanliness in all the services offered. To reduce time of service during lunch, too long! Breakfast to be improved with fresh and local products. Some troubles with the final bill, some items reported in the balance did not correspond to our reservation and our expectations!

The resort is located in Praialonga, a secluded holiday village in one of the best spots of Gulf of Squillace. With a sustainable approach in both materials and food, the resort promotes south Italian culture thru an outstanding choice of local design and regional ingredients. Ideal to relax and taste unique recipes in the starred Michelin restaurant. The sea is Cristal clear and the staff always available and friendly … the Italian style…. Cannot be missed

Praia Art Resort is a glorious property. It is a love letter to Calabria and the rich heritage of the region. The beach is stunning. The staff is excellent and friendly. The food is not to be missed. The grounds are lush and abundant with local treasures (olives, grapes, fig tress). The surrounding area offers much to see in an area of Italy that is often overlooked. We will return to Praia Art Resort without question.

The Praia Art Resort has many factors going for it. It is a beautifully designed hotel featuring and celebrating local materials, art and food. It has a gorgeous, incredibly clean, private beach, with sunbeds and umbrella for guests, as part of the nightly room fee. The pool, situated adjacent to hundred-year-old olive trees, next to the casual restaurant, is large enough for lap swimming and mostly unused. (We spent one morning lounging in the shade next to the pool, soaking up the relaxation). Our room, which is featured on some of the hotel's promo literature, was perfect - comfortable bed, large sitting area, a jet tub in the sitting area, large covered outdoor terrace, great A/C (it was a heatwave when we were there, so this was extremely welcome). The shower was a tad problematic - hard to get cool water coming out of it, so the "cool down" part of the shower was non-existent, sadly given the extremely high outside temperature. It seemed they were training a bunch of new staff when we were there. Everyone was extremely good-natured, though, and was trying hard, so we give lots of points for that. We especially loved Valentina, at the casual restaurant. She is clearly a veteran, very skilled and professional and also very friendly and funny. She seemed to be training some of the newer employees, so under her guidance, things should be running very smoothly in no time at all. Keep up the good work!! A word about the Michelin-starred restaurant, Pietramare Natural Food. The staff was lovely. The presentation was wonderful. All the aesthetic elements were there. We just didn't like the food, sadly. Among other things, every dish other than the dessert was extremely salty. We will chalk it up to an off night, as clearly others like the food and it does have its Michelin star. We would be thrilled to stay at this lovely resort again if/when we are in the area again.
