About us !

The Giuliano family directly manages the Hotel Restaurant “La Bussola” with professionalism and particular attention to your demands and has done since 1973. The courtesy, warm reception, and the tradition of hospitality, will really make an unforgettable and pleasant holiday in Calabria. The hotel is situated next to the sea at Capo Vaticano, near Tropea.
Here you can admire the unspoilt countryside along the splendid Capo Vaticano and Tropea coast, famous world wide for its beauty. Like Tropea, also Capo Vaticano , the last outpost on the Gulf of Sant’ Eufemia, can boast an international reputation, fully justified not only by the unchanging charm of the places, but also by the modern tourist structures which have revamped the local economy, once based solely on farming and food products, confirming its vocation for tourism.
The sunset from here over "Stromboli" is considered the eight wonder of the world. The crystal clear sea and the marvellous beaches, as well as the professional way in which the hotel is run, will make your holiday with us in Capo Vaticano and Tropea….an unforgettable experience.
Look...let your eyes soak up the colours and the shapes of an unmistakable nature, where traces of a past that is never forgotten are revealed at every glance.
Listen…pay attention to the wind telling legends in the beds of reeds, to the roar of the sea on the cliffs and the whispering wash of its wanes on the beaches, hear the sacred silence of the woods.
Smell…let yourselves be inebriated by the perfume of the orange blossom, grasp the musky fragrance of the Mediterranean maquis and the pungent aroma of the orchards.
Taste…savour the strong character of a cuisine that is in itself culture and tradition.
Touch…sink your hands in the white sand, brush your fingers over the wild flowers soaked in dew, let your mind skim over the horizon and follow its contours until tomorrow.
Have you done that?
Welcome, you are in Capo Vaticano of Ricadi near Tropea in the Province of Vibo Valentia.
