"It’s not on Capri or in Sicily; it’s not on the Amalfi coast, or on Sardinia, or on the Italian Riviera. And in the case of in the case of the Capovaticano Resort Thalasso & Spa, that’s a good thing. Not to cast any aspersions on Italy’s most famous beaches — it’s just that, in a country so crowded with inspiring destinations, you can hardly go wrong by venturing off the typical paths. Calabria, with its unspoiled coastline, the stretch of sand facing the Aeolian islands and the picturesque peak of Stromboli volcano? Now that’s a getaway — <em>uno paradiso piccolo</em> in the dainty toe of Italy’s high-heeled boot." - Tablet Hotels
