In General 

We are happy to introduce the new structure, management and services of our Lavinium Bed and Breakfast, located on the Mediterranean Sea in Scalea, Calabria.

In a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere it is possible to customize all of the services related to your stay in order to allow individuals, families or groups to work, or simply relax. We offer expertise and quality management, as well as the friendliness and hospitality of our Wellness Team, guided by Dragana and Antonio.

Completely renovated in 2007, equipped with the best comforts, in an intimate environment, rural but chic, almost bohemian, the Lavinium Bed and Breakfast will make your stay unique and unforgettable. From our balconies you will enjoy a breath-taking view of the Tyrrhenian Coast. You will also be able to walk through the typical paths of the historical town center, in search of romantic corners and scents of the Mediterranean, spending your evenings surrounded by spectacular colors and lights.

You can choose to stay in one of our four cozy bedrooms, furnished with elegant antique furniture, all equipped with a luxury bathroom, television and Internet access. Upon entering, you will feel as if you are stepping into the celestial world of the Goddesses, Diana, Aphrodite, Athena and Calliope, that will accompany you into a calm and relaxing night’s sleep on a latex mattress and an orthopedic or neck pillow.

For small families or for small groups of friends, the Gaia suite is a true jewel. Set in living rock, with Roman style bricks, embellished with suggestive arches, with two bedrooms, living room/kitchen  and two bathrooms, you will be able to rediscover sensations of the old days.

At breakfast you will be delighted with tasty jams, and sweeten your palate with fresh picked fruit, savor fresh baked bread, and be intoxicated by the perfumes of jasmine, lavender and bougainvillea. Is there anything better than having a rich breakfast while practicing conversation in Italian or English, in German or French, in Russian or Japanese, in our pleasant dining room? It is ideal to begin your day, illuminated by the sun and full of energy.

Lavinium Bed and Breakfast is especially suitable for individuals, families or groups that would simply like to stay with us or take advantage of our wellness packages. We also accommodate companies for work retreats (workshops, seminars, conferences, …) and those who would like to discover: the land that conquers the five senses: crystal-clear sea, mountains covered by snow, thick woods, silvery rivers, mysterious lakes, and relaxing thermal baths; the land of cultural goods and heritage: natural beauties, historical and artistic richness, and religious sites; the land of food and wine tradition: cordial hospitality, amusement for all tastes and for all ages; the land of fantastic bays and enchanting rock, pebble, or sand beaches just 200 meters away from our B&B.

Open almost year round at advantageous prices, we are ready to offer special agreements to your company or promotional packages to your best clients, your managers, your friends or family members.
