This was a phenomenal stay. You can walk to the town of Cetara to eat, or hop on the ferry to anywhere else in Amalfi. There is a beautiful private beach and the staff was extremely accommodating. It’s close to everything but without the business of the city. Highly recommend.

Great find

This hotel was an incredible find on the Amalfi coast. Far away from the usual tourist areas yet close enough to an authentic Italian village. The hotel was in an incredible location on the side of a mountain overlooking the sea. The staff was friendly and helpful. The whole hotel restaurant was incredible. Highly recommended.
