Wonderful views, delicious food, great staff, convenient shuttle service, and comfortable rooms. They seem to be doing some facilities upgrades, which is good.

This was fine for us, but know that it will take time to shuttle to and from Amalfi center and the shuttle can get fully booked, so just plan ahead!

A Dream Come True on the Amalfi Coast! From the moment we arrived, we were absolutely captivated. As soon as you step into the hotel, you are greeted by the most breathtaking view of the Amalfi Coast, with a direct outlook over the beautiful town of Amalfi. The staff were always friendly, cheerful, and incredibly attentive, making us feel welcome at every turn. The rooms are newly renovated and were the best we have experienced in all of Italy. We were also delighted by the complimentary shuttle service to the town, which added so much convenience to our stay. The hotel restaurant is a gem! Both breakfast and dinner were fantastic, with a magical atmosphere and stunning views that made every meal unforgettable. In short, this hotel is simply wow—an experience we’ll cherish forever. Highly recommended!

All the staff were very friendly and helpful from the time we arrived. Reception staff were all welcoming. Francisco explained all we needed to know and took us to our rooms. There are regular shuttle vans that take guests to and from the Amalfi town. Before we arrived, the hotel sent a message with instructions on how to book the shuttle. Very straightforward. Just a tip to add your email address on the booking site to get confirmation that you booked the shuttle to avoid confusion with other guests. We had 2 rooms which are both clean and have cool air conditioning. The balcony overlooking the sea is such a lovely view. There is a tablet that controls the TV and where you can get all the info you need for the hotel. Rooms were cleaned everyday. Breakfast food and drinks were good with different options to choose from. The restaurant is located on the 2nd floor with a view of the sea and mountain side. Dinner was also great and prices were reasonable and comparable to restaurants in town. We think they're even better than most restaurants in town. Staff in the restaurant were all lovely and friendly. We didn't eat lunch here so can't comment on lunch experience. The pool is located on the ground floor. We only spent one day for a few hours in the pool area because we liked to go to the beach more. There are regular shuttles to take you down the beach. Then there are 2 lifts to take guests down to the beach level. The beach is exclusive to the hotel guests. Sun loungers are always available. There is a lido where they serve food and drinks. It's a pebble beach which may hurt the feet when going in and out of the water. All the staff at the beach are all nice and helpful. Bring a mosquito repellent. You'll need it in Amalfi in general. We had a great time in Amalfi and the hotel is great.

We loved the location. Perched above Amalfi it's a 10 minute shuttle ride from the hotel to the center of town. The shuttle is included and ran in 15 minute intervals. The scenery and peace and quiet of the hotel were fantastic. They have a beautiful pool area. The food in the restaurant was better than what we had in Amalfi. The local wines were great as well. The hotel also has a private beach club which you can use daily until 5pm if I remember correctly. The last shuttle to the hotel might have been at 5.30pm. The beach was great and they have a snack bat/bar which makes an outstanding hamburger.. The overall experience was great. We had a newly renovated room where we enjoyed the seaview balcony very much on the morning and evening. We are already planning our return visit next September Be open minded as some of the resort is not renovated as of yet. The lobby area has classic, Amalfi coast charm. Like anywhere else. Be nice to people and you will receive the same in return.

I liked everything. No complaints

The view... wow.... we stayed in a standard room which seemed to be recently renovated and was fantastic. Comfortable bed, modern aircon, black out shutters, and silent. The breakfast and dinner were very nice as well and the staff were very helpful. Initially concerned about having to use the shuttle but it always worked seamlessly and being a bit out of the town means you can also enjoy a bit of peace and quiet. Plus if you are feeling fit you can walk up and down to Amalfi town. We managed to come up in just over 25min but that was really pushing it. There is also a very nice little town above the hotel (10 min walk) with a wonderful restaurant called Trattoria da Rispoli (Osteria Rispoli) and is a must visit for true Italian food and wonderful people. Would definitely stay here again. (We stayed 4 nights rather than 2 here and 2 in Positano, and we are so glad we did. Would have stayed longer)

The only thing I can think of is the incredible bright blue light from the power box, which lights up the room at night and defeats the purpose of having blackout shutters. I fixed this, however, by placing a sticker over it.

The Staff was extremely helpful. Laura, Valeria and Rebecca helped a lot. During our stay there was a lot of transportation road closures and cancellations that we experienced and they helped us to navigate that and arrange alternatives. They have an organized shuttle system. They have a private beach club. Wi-Fi was reliable. Room and bathroom were spacious enough to comfortable host two people and had many sockets which are convenient when traveling and working remotely. Hotel had Hi-tech amenities.

For the price and type of hotel would be nice to have amenities such as a bathrobe or slippers. Bathroom lacked some basic amenities such as towel holders. If you don’t have a car it’s easy to get to the center but hard to get to other locations such as another hotel restaurant or bar. At breakfast there was no toaster so warm up the breads. The last shuttle pick up from the beach club was a bit early.

the staff was very kind, and the breakfast was very very good. very very good point for the hotel is that there are minibusses from the hotel to the center so you will not have a lot of challenges to traveling to the center and this is FREE about 15-20 min travel. the hotel is about 18-25 min from Amalfi center, as my first time in Amalfi it was a good place with good price. don't use a taxi on the Amalfi coast just a ferry. in Amalfi, there is one bus station in the center of Amalfi. regarding safety, the hotel was safe and quiet.

the hotel was renovated recently there is a failure in the sewer smell in the room. or maybe an air conditioner. need to check

Beautiful location with great views. Bedroom was charmingly old-school and we had a big balcony. Hotel offered a regular free shuttle which was needed to get into the main town of Amalfi. The food we ate was great. Reception staff were great.

Prices were high for drinks & food, but this wasn’t always reflected in the service. Most staff were friendly but felt new and could do with more training for a hotel of this standard. Pool area was lovely but lacked a bit of atmosphere- no music, limited bar opening times.

Exceptional view over the see, very authentic floor tiles, very modern techically. Shuttle services were invaluable like the private beach as well. Very helpful and kind people at the receptions and at the beach. Also the drivers.

Although the hotel is very quite, probably due to the ceramic floor tiles, if above or your next neighbour walking a bit firmly, you can hear it, which can be frustrating a bit. Also the people at the restaurant (e.g. during breakfast) were not able to express their kindness which were expected

Location was fantastic with exceptional views. Private beach, breakfast fantastic. Shuttle service was convenient to and from town/beach. Hotel very spacious with lots of areas to relax.

No airconditioning in main areas of hotel only in the rooms. Made it too hot to sit on couches inside. Even though the staff were relatively friendly, we found them to be going through the motions with no enthusiasm about their jobs. Especially in the restaurant, we felt like they didn’t want to be there - could not engage in conversation. They were like robots.
