An Enforgettable Experience

Where do I begin.....from the moment we walked in the door it was like coming home again. Every single person makes you feel welcomed. The amazing staff goes beyond to make sure every aspect of your stay is perfect. You can tell their kindness is sincere and that they all are proud of what they do. They went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time. Their kindness was overwhelming. Pepino the owner is a charismatic gentlemen with a twinkle in his eye who along with his 4 handsome sons and his lovely wife treat everyone like family!! The Restaurant is beautiful and the Sushi outstanding. They also serve mouth watering Pasta dishes, beef and seafood. You never walk away disappointed but instead looking forward to your next meal. Our rooms were very clean and comfortable. Housekeeping was excellent. The whole property is beautiful and well maintained. The views from our room and the sunsets were beautiful, especially seeing the Volcano on Isola Stomboli erupting! We spent many afternoons relaxing at the beautiful pool, and there is also a shuttle to the beach. Capo Vaticano has much to offer. There are many activities to enjoy in the area so you will never be bored, or you can just relax! You will not be disappointed staying at La Bussola and like us will want to return many times. Whatever your expectations are, La Bussola will exceed them. We highly recommend La Bussola.💗💗

Wish we booked a longer stay

We were greeted by Rosario our driver arranged for pick up at the airport, he was polite and kind. We were then welcomed with a drink and info. Our room was perfect with a beautiful view of the sea. We booked half board and the breakfast was plentiful and fresh. The server's were always pleasing, especially Nicholas. The dinners were delicious and service again amazing. We enjoyed the pool and afternoon cocktails made with perfectly by Santos. This hotel is spotless and the employees work very hard to keep it that way. The receptionists Valentina 's are lovely and gave very good recommendations on everything we asked. We took advantage of the shuttle to the beach and Tropes with driver Memo ( Dominic), he was also full of info and very nice. We would recommend the place to everyone. Thank you for a great stay and beautiful memories.
