The hotel had a beautiful view of Amalfi! It was very serene and the pool, though small, was well-done. The walk to Amalfi was 25 minutes all downhill. We took the bus back close to town (10 minute walk to hotel). Note there are many steps you will have to walk up to reach the hotel which may be challenging for elderly or people with small children. Internet did not function well so not ideal for telework. We have visited the area many times and this was a nice change of pace. We’d visit again.

Beautiful property with stunning views. The room was enormous with a hot tub on the patio. A little out of the way of the hustle and bustle but a lovely area Would recommend getting the bus up and down to Amalfi

As a person who stays in 10+ hotels per year, this place ranks near the top. It’s a beautiful hotel with incredible views. The pool area is quiet and relaxing. The rooms are clean, comfortable and modern. The complimentary breakfast is delicious with fresh fruit, cheeses and pastries. The customer service is top notch with the English speaking owners/front desk agents genuinely caring about each and every guest. Highly recommend this place.

Nice room, very tasteful. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. However, getting to the hotel is a challenge. Taxi is 70 eu one way each time. Bus is difficult to catch and limits you mobility significantly.

We were very pleased and happy to have stayed at this beautiful hotel.
