Il Convento della Pietà: Historic Residence Perched on the Sea in Tropea
Il Convento della Pietà is an evocative historic dwelling and charming residence located in the oldest part of Tropea (VV), perched on an impressive terrace overlooking the sea. This ancient structure offers a unique blend of spirituality, history, and the breathtaking beauty of the Coast of the Gods (Costa degli Dei). Its terraces provide an unforgettable view of the sea, the Sanctuary of Santa Maria dell'Isola, and the Aeolian Islands.
Apartments and Rooms with Sea View
The rooms and apartments have been renovated respecting the ancient architecture, maintaining an atmosphere of Franciscan quiet and simplicity, yet equipped with modern comforts. All accommodations include air conditioning, private bathroom, and complimentary Wi-Fi. The more exclusive options offer a kitchenette and large private terraces with a direct sea view, ideal for an outdoor breakfast or sunset aperitif.
Panoramic Terrace and Sea Access
The strength of the property is the large panoramic terrace, the social heart of the Convento, where guests can relax and admire the landscape. Although there is no swimming pool, the beach is easily accessible via a private staircase of about 180 steps. At 'La Locanda del Convento,' guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast with local products and homemade cakes, and use the restaurant to savor Calabrian and Mediterranean cuisine.
Location and Activities (Beach and Culture)
Thanks to its central and historic location, the Convento is the ideal starting point for exploring the old town of Tropea and its alleys on foot. Activities available include cooking classes, snorkeling, scuba diving, and boat tours to the Coast of the Gods and the Aeolian Islands. The property does not have private parking, but street parking is available nearby.

His Opinion: Die Wohnung SOLE ist wunderschön und etwas besonderes vom Flair. Im absoluten Zentrum gelegen. Es fehlt leider eine Anreisebeschreibung und im Ort kennt niemand den Convento, auch in den Geschäften nicht. So irrt man etwas herum. Man kann das Gepäck nicht vor dem Haus ausladen, sondern muss über unebenes Pflaster das Gepäck ca. 25 Minuten schleppen. Sehr mühevoll und schweißtreibend!Vielleicht funktioniert auch die Beleuchtung im Fußboden bald wieder, die für ein noch schöneres Ambiente sorgen würde.
Alles in allem ein sehr netter Ort!

His Opinion: Lovely accommodation. My only complaints would be about the fairground that was going on outside during the Easter break (blaring pop music for half of every day), and also a change of towels half way through the week would be useful. Elena's English wasn't great but she was extremely friendly and helpful.
