Comfortable for 4, ok area
We stayed with Francesco for 6 nights in the high season. The two bedrooms of the apartment were nice, spacious, and comfortable for two adults and two kids (one of which used a travel cot we brought along).
The living area was comfortable, offering a sofa and table that was large and very comfortable for 4 people (6 could easily fit). The only problem was with a large heating stove that took up a full corner of the space and had several exposed tubes that were far too "interesting" for our 1.5 year old. The stove was not pretty to look at, and posed a slight hazard to our small child (even though the stove was never turned on -- in August).
We enjoyed eating on the balcony, which was comfortable for 3 (while the baby was sleeping), but would have been cramped for 4.
I would not say that the beaches are walking distance. It would be a hefty walk down, and an even heftier walk back UP the hill to where the apartment sits. We always drove, and had no trouble parking very close to the beaches.
The sandy beaches are nice, and there is LOTS of space on many of the free beaches, even in August. We found no need to go to a lido. The only unfortunate thing is that the water very quickly becomes deep, leaving little room in the water for young non-swimmers to play.
If we decide to come back to this part of Calabria, we would consider staying here again. We also spent a week near Capo Vaticano, and enjoyed the beaches there much more.
