Overview

This outstanding Leading Hotel of the World enjoys a panoramic coastal setting just minutes from Amalfi.

Built, owned and managed by the Gambardella family since 1880, the hotel takes full advantage of its breathtaking location sitting atop a stretch of coastline which tumbles down to the water on a series of landscaped natural terraces. Guests can anticipate wood-fired oven pizzas, grilled local fish and tempting buffets, not to mention seasonal delicacies specific to the Campania region.

Accommodation

Each of the 62 luminous rooms and suites has a balcony with views of the Amalfi coast, with many also having a large terrace or garden.

All are furnished with early 20th century pieces and decorated with Vietri multi-coloured ceramics: each is different from the other and is enriched by a touch of the exotic.

The suites are stunning, in particular the Romeo and Juliet Suite, an intimate two-storey chalet perched on the cliff above the sea, and Follia Amalfitana, which is immersed in the citrus grove.

Restaurants & Bars

Fine dining is very much on the agenda here, the regional lunchtime specialities of the terrace restaurant supplemented by the acclaimed a la carte dishes of the upper level dining room.

Guests can anticipate wood-fired oven pizzas, grilled local fish and tempting buffets, not to mention seasonal delicacies specific to the Campania region. The fine wines, outstanding sea view and exceptional service further enhance the culinary delights.

Recreation

Whilst all the scenic delights of Pompeii, Sorrento and Capri are nearby, many guests find the allure of the seawater swimming pool and sunbathing decks too difficult to ignore for long; an added attraction is the lifts leading directly to the private beach and pool, which are cut into the rock.

The Beauty Centre further enhances the experience.
