| This was the most magnificant placed I have ever stayed in my 40 years of travelling.When you arrive and the electric gates open-you drive into a serene botanical sanctuary and the road leads you to a car port where you are parking your vehicle under grape vines.So before you set foot into Alessandras beautiful home-you know that you have 'Arrived'. I realized that this is one of the only times in my travelling life where the reality of the beauty of a place far exceeded any possible expectations.There is nothing missing here-nothing.To add to all of this is that Alessandra is not only gracious ,attentive and discrete but she has an eye for beauty and simplicity. I shall be returning-many more times.Thank you Alessandra. |

| We all thought your house was stupendous, with just the right balance between simplicity and charm. You have obviously worked hard to plan and design the house, the guest houses and the landscaping in such as way as to enhance the natural beauty of the site, to give privacy both inside and outside the gardens, and yet give a real design flair to the various parts including the naturalistic swimming pool. Ultimately, although luxurious in some sences, it was not in the least bit 'poncey', if you could forgive a very english expression. |

6 of my family joined me for my 50th Birthday and I wanted to find somewhere special and none of us were disappointed. The setting is one of the most beautiful that you could imagine. The house itself was clean and fully equipped, my only criticism was that there was no visitors book to put all of my little tips in and to see where others had enjoyed - but if thats the only criticism then it speaks volumes!!!! Alessandra was just so helpful as we had a number of travel issues before we left. Nothing was too much trouble and we are all very grateful. We werent able to use the pool for our stay so that was unfortunate but the grounds and outside facilities equalled those internally. Going early season has its compensations as with the warm spring like days it was lovely to come back to a sunny but cool evening and when we had watched the sun come down and Stromboli disappear we were able to enjoy the open roaring fire (we didnt seem to have a problem with too much smoke as previuos review stated). The area is very unspoilt and has a feel of Italy. Locals despite speaking no English and we speaking no Italian, managed to converse and were very welcome wherever we went. Tropea, Pizzo, Scilla were particular favourites of ours as was the day trip to Stromboli and two other Islands. We all had a wonderful holiday and are grateful to Alessandra, Mr Paginin and Anna for helping us make it so.
Thank you all!
best Wishes
Linda and family. |

| As a habitual repeater whose job is in the travel industry, I love the Cliff House for its beauty, peace and stunning views. The pool and gardens are beautiful and Anna, the housekeeper a delight. |
