"They had a vision..." Amantea Local Custom Tip by mapakettle

These three ladies had a dream, and that was to own a nice hotel in Amantea. They fulfilled their dream, and now own, besides a hotel, a bar, a fantastic restaurant within the hotel itself, and a wonderful pizza/seafood/pasta restaurant just seconds from the beach.

Maria is the kind soul who went out of her way to get fresh figs for my mother-in-law, and presented me with a bottle of their house wine upon our departure. Very kind, very generous.

They did it the southern Italian way, they pooled resources, and worked long, long hours to keep costs down, as well as add their personal touch in dealing with their customers.

The names of these budding entrepreneurs
are: Maria Amoroscoe, Savana Vettri, and Teresa Sesti. If you pay them a visit, say hello from the Italian Canadians who were visiting Carolei in July 2004.
