Really nice pool, parking in front and enough of it, restaurant in case you are hungry, breakfast by the pool, nice size of bathroom, especially for Italy. Road is up in the mountain but still totally OK to drive. Nice garden.

“Lovely hotel to explore the Amalfi Coast”
We booked this hotel last minute as our original accommodations fell through and it ended up being an absolutely perfect way to end our trip. If you're brave enough to drive the Amalfi coast this is a fantastic home base to take day trips from. The staff were wonderful and the views were lovely!

Really nice location away from the busy Amalfi coast but close enough to visit the coast. There are 2 pools, the bigger one a bit more busy (but never too busy) and a small one that is really quiet. We had a very relaxing time and the staff is super friendly.

“Great place to stay if you have a car”
The staff is really nice, the place is beautiful, the room is clean and comfortable and the pools are great. The breakfast is very good and there's always fresh fruit, which is a rarity in Italian hotels!

“Great view and fantastic pools”
The pools were fantastic. The view from our room was beautiful. Staff always smiling and very helpful and friendly. We tried both the restaurant at the hotel and the pizzeria and were very happy with both. We also had fun driving up the hill to the hotel, a bit different than we are used to but completely worth it. We stayed for 5 days but would have liked to stay longer

It is more a hotel than a B&B.

“Lovely, friendly hotel in a great position. Perfect for a relaxing holiday and regional visits.”
Lovely hotel, very clean and comfortable. Our room was standard, but comfortable enough with space for all our things. The staff were exceptional and food great. They even arranged a shuttle down to their other restaurant (which is also excellent by the way). The grounds are immaculate with various options for sitting around the pool (2 available, one large, one small and tucked away) or in the gardens. We had a car, and took advantage of good links to the Amalfi coast, Regional Parks and Pompeii, all within reasonable driving distance.
