While Tropea is undoubtedly a beautiful destination, I strongly advise against choosing Sentido Michelizia Resort for your stay. Our experience was marred by being able to check into our room until 8pm, false room descriptions, an unbearably hot attic room, moldy conditions in the shower, shuttle service nightmares, and booking issues. The hotel's overall disregard for guest satisfaction and comfort made our stay a true nightmare. We will definitely return to Tropea, but never to this hotel. It was a truly terrible experience, and I hope this review serves as a warning to others considering a stay here.
Expect to wait over an hour for beach pickup shuttle service, in very hot conditions. And then when you get back and ask reception for a bottle of water, they point you to purchase it at the bar. We reserved and confirmed a 2pm beach pickup, they didn't arrive until 3pm.
Our air condition could not keep up with the need and were left to sleep in an 84F/29C room for 2 nights. We cut our stay short by a night because we could not take it and the hotel did not attempt to do anything except offer a fan. The hotel even made us pay for the 3rd night but to us, it was worth wasting the money if it meant leaving this place.
The most attention the Front Desk gave was when we were walking to our vehicle and they begged us not to write a negative review.
