The development:
The development of Tropea Bay Villas with its seven luxury homes, gardens and a common swimming pool is set just a few minutes away from the translucent, turquoise Tyrrhenian Sea and its white sandy beaches. The villas were designed for an international clientele to make the best of the stunning views. Each is surrounded by colourful gardens and enjoys stylish, light, airy interiors with two to three bedrooms and a bathroom. Luxury and peacefulness are the keywords for this development as is quality with the Mediterranean tiled roofs, double glazing windows and roller shutters.

The location:
Tropea Bay Villas’s surroundings are among the most beautiful in the entire Mediterranean area with white sandy beaches, the translucent and turquoise Tyrrhenian Sea, and the beautiful coastline of the Coast of Gods. In myths and legends, the area is known to be the summer home for the Gods’ children. The development benefits from an excellent location: it is 15 minutes away from Tropea, 10 minutes in ferry from the magnificent Aeolian Islands, 50 minutes from Sicily, 1 hour from the Sila Mountains and its ski resort, and 5 minutes from the historic town of Zambrone. Zambrone is set in beautiful landscapes too, with impressive rock formations. One can relax on the beach, appreciate the local gastronomy in the nearby restaurants and bars or enjoy the amphitheatre which hosts cultural events such as plays, ballets and concerts. Tropea is also very close to the development. It is a lively city with an interesting cultural heritage and beautiful local shops, restaurants and bars. Calabria bathes in warm sunshine from March to November and daily temperatures of 25C in summer make bathing a pleasure.

Activities:
A wide range of activities are available in the region of Tropea, in particular water sports such as canoeing, swimming, scuba diving, sailing, fishing, jet skiing, wind surfing, deep sea diving… Cycling, golf, horse riding or tennis are also much appreciated too.

Food and Local specialities:
Many villages around Tropea produce a particular quality of red onion. In Italy these onions are so famous that cipolla di Tropea (“Tropea onion” or “Tropea’s onion”) has become an Italian synonym for all red onions. One of the gelaterias in town, Tonino in the Corso, even makes a red onion ice cream! There is also a spicy and creamy pork salami locally produced, the Nduja.
Not to say that most of the cuisine of Calabria is heavily influenced by the Mediterranean cuisine. The Southern warm climate all year round is perfect for growing fruit, vegetables and grapes, for delicious wines, as well as olive groves. The sea provides a source of wonderful fresh fish too. The distinctive local cuisine is not only delicious but healthy in the bargain.

By air: Lamezia Terme is the closest airport and is the fastest way to get to Tropea Bay Villas. Budget airlines serve the airport which is two hours fly time from most of the major European cities. Airberlin flies directly to Lamezia Terme from London Stansted every Wednesday from May to October and also flies to Naples three times a week in the same period. There, you can rent a car, take a bus or a train for Tropea.

By car: Flights are available from London to Roma. Once in Roma, it is possible to rent a car and drive. It is autostrada (motorway) almost all the way – except first 20 miles to A1 and then about 20 miles after leaving the A3 at Pizzo – and an easy drive if you are comfortable on Italian autostrade. You would then have a car to explore the wonderful area around Tropea – there is so much to see.

By train: Zambrone train Station is 5mn from the development and has a good train connection to/from all major Italian towns and cities.
