Es gibt Erfahrungen, da passt alles. Es gibt Orte, die strömen Harmonie aus. Und es gibt Giuseppe, den aufmerksamsten, zuvorkommendsten Gastgeber, den man sich wünschen kann. Alles hier im Domus. Das Haus, der Garten, das Meer, das beeindruckende Landesinnere, es passt alles perfekt. Zeit, die man hier verbringt, ist unvergessliche Zeit. Für jene, die Infos bevorzugen: Haus blitzsauber, Küche prima ausgestattet, Betten ausgezeichnet, Garten gepflegt, unser Hund herzlich aufgenommen. Strand in Sichtweite, Meer kristallklar, Hund am Strand problemlos.
Giuseppe spricht perfekt englisch und ist neben seiner Herzlichkeit mit seinem Wissen über die Magna Grecia eine Bereicherung. Danke Giuseppe für die tolle Zeit!

Tutto perfetto!
Abbiamo soggiornato nell'appartamento Oleandro per 2 settimane la scorsa estate.
Ci siamo sentiti subito come a casa, il proprietario Giuseppe è una persona adorabile, sempre disponibile e gentile.
L'appartamento è attrezzato con tutto ciò che necessita per non parlare della terrazza che ha una bellissima vista mare.
Ci siamo rilassati nel massimo del confort. Un grazie di cuore a Giuseppe e ai figli Marco e Oscar! Speriamo di rivedervi presto!

Fantasticas vistas - tranquilidad absoluta
El apartamento se corresponde perfectamente con lo publicitado y está equipado con lo necesario para unas vacaciones. Las calidades de la vivienda son excelentes y la decoración moderna con cuadros magníficos. Lo mejor es la gran terraza que tiene frente al mar. Los amaneceres son gloriosos y sorprendentemente cada día distintos gracias al tipo de nubes que se puedan acumular en el horizonte. La casa está cerca de un pueblo donde se puede hacer la compra y justo debajo de la colina hay un restaurante/pizzería donde –como celiaca- me atendieron estupendamente. Giuseppe es encantador está cerca si se le necesita.

"We enjoyed the first two...
"We enjoyed the first two weeks of September in Calabria. The
accommodation corresponded to the description of the owner, a new
building on the foothills of the Serre-mountains with fantastic views
over the Ionian Sea. Equipped with modern, functional furniture and a
suitable selection of paintings in each room. The Beaches and sea in the
vicinity are clean and can be reached by car in a few minutes as well as
several shops and everything required for daily life. The flat is as a
very good starting point to discover Calabria with its numerous sights
and attractions. Beautiful hiking trails and water sporting activities
as well as many other leisure possibilities are being offered.
The Owner lives in the proximity and knows the place. He''s a cordial,
helpful and polyglot person.
To sum it up, it was an exciting sightseeing- and beach holiday in the
late summer without crowded beaches."
