Santa Maria La Fossa Holidays

Our room was ready early and we enjoyed our time to relax. It was a lovely room with all the amenities.

Rustic and modern at the same time. We stayed up the hill in the Casa Romita building, an historic villa converted to guest rooms. Mt. Vesuvius was obvious from our lanai, and fortunately did not erupt. AC was a must, as Italy is HOT this September and the friendly staff and self-serve espresso maker were both much appreciated. Desk staff coordinated tours and transportation without complaint or glitch. We will return, and highly recommend this gem of a holiday getaway in the hills above Sorrento.

Beautiful hotel, clean and spacious. Staff really nice and always happy to help. We knew it was set on a hill as we chose it for the view, you don’t need a sunset rooftop bar in the centre as you have got your own at the hotel. Breakfast had plenty of choice for everyone. The dafne restaurant food was amazing, we ate there for our anniversary and they brought us a cake, I recomend the red snapper. If you don’t have mobility issues it’s a lovely walk down to the centre (but it’s all up hill on the way back) but there is a brilliant free shuttle bus that runs most of the day and night every hour. When the shuttle isn’t running there is a public bus that stops outside the hotel. We got a taxi down to the port with our luggage which the reception arranged for us. Sorrento is absolutely beautiful whether you choose to spend your time round the pool relaxing soaking up the sun or seeing the sites, there’s something for everyone. We loved marina grande especially on an evening when it’s all lit up. Sorrento is the perfect base for neighbouring sites, we visited positano, Amalfi, Capri and Naples all by ferry and it was so easy. We spent 5 nights here and would happily return.

We stayed here on our honeymoon and had the most spectacular time! After a full week there, it really began to feel like a proper home and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The pool, gorgeous terrace, and breakfast buffet each day were the real highlights, along with the incredible view from our balcony. We are already planning a trip back!

Marco is very nice and professional, we enjoyed our stay.
