The owner was lovely and helpful

As I'm gluten & lactose free they provided jam and gf crackers. Had use of beach umbrella. On lungomare where there is selection of bars and restaurants, beach is free access without the crowds of other areas.

Had a lovely stay at Carmelo’s freshly renovated B&B La Ginestra. The top floor room has a double and a single bed and a French balcony with a beautiful view south of the lush, surrounding mountains and the ocean. The room has an ensuite bathroom and shower. Hot water came straight away and was abundant. The wifi was super fast and always worked perfectly. There is a backyard from which I had breakfast every morning. Absolutely peaceful and lovely to enjoy the sun and the birds chirping. There is a shared kitchenette on the bottom floor with a fridge, sink and two hot plates etc. Bova is a very particular, fascinating and beautiful town with Grecanic roots, perched on a hilltop at approx 850 m height. The road getting there is quite alright and never really too narrow not to be able to accommodate oncoming cars (two cars in width). The B&B itself is located a short walk down in to the town from where you can park your car. Within a 5-10 minute walk, you will find several lovely hikes in to the breathtaking and beautiful Aspromonte National Park (recommended: loop to Amendolea and back as well as the loop up to Montegrosso and back). Carmelo was truly a superb host and acted like my private concierge; checking in on me and suggesting incredibly good places to eat (shoutout to Coop San Leo) and even reserving for me! A beautiful experience with friendly interactions with locals and lovely nature memories! I’ll happily come back again when I need to recharge.

The host was fabulous and helpful

It is a huge brand new apartment with two big bedrooms and a big balcony overlooking the sea with the beach just a few meters away. We were really delighted to stay in such a luxurious place. It is a very quiet and clean B & B. Erika is a wonderful hostess, very attentive to her guests' needs. She has nicely decorated her apartment and put a personal modern touch everywhere. We would definitely stay again at Casa Erika if we come back to Bova Marina. It is the ideal place to relax and spend time with family or friends.

Beautiful property and location. Very helpful owner

Very nice, tidy, clean apartment with many new facilities (stove, washing machine, usable kitchen, comfortable table and chairs, broom, mop etc). Fully equipped kitchen with many choices of new pots, pans, tablecloths, tea towels, plates, colander, sponges etc.... Outside there were clotheslines to hang up washing/clothes rack (pegs supplied) etc... Airconditioning was perfect, functioned really well - we were there during the heatwave and it was turned on for us already before we arrived! Also four little cold water bottles for the four of us were supplied in the fridge upon arrival! Very thoughtful!!! The landlord was helpful and very quick and efficient to respond back to us both times when we contacted him. He also loaned us an item free of charge and bought it over quickly and respectfully leaving it outside the front door as requested. Everything ran very smoothly from first contact to departure. The unit was in the centre of town and just a short walk up from the train station, in a very quiet location. We really enjoyed our stay and really appreciate the efficiency, thoughtfulness and professionalism of the landlord. (There was also fresh basil in a pot on one of the balconies for us to pick. Tomato plant as well.)
