A very good hotel with amazing customer service. Pros: 1. They give you a free shuttle service that you can book in advance to and from Amalfi city centre. You can book it from your own phone when you are out on some trip and anytime with ease. 2. People at the reception are very nice and helpful. They even upgraded my room for no extra charges.  3. The restaurant serves amazing food. 4. Views from the hotel, cleanliness and the overall ambience deserves Five star! Cons: 1. Location is bit far from city centre and if you are travelling in peak season even with the free shuttle, delays might irritate you. 2. Breakfast buffet has less options especially for vegetarians. I expected atleast some warm food options like a toasted bread or crepes.  Recommend to book it 100%.

Great location and stunning view from the room. The personnel at the reception were very welcoming with excellent service during our stay. Shuttle bus service was also great.  Service and approach from waiters at the bar/restaurant was extremely poor during our whole stay so obviously something was wrong at that area of the hotel.

This was my first visit to Amalfi and like most this review is for those who are likely to travel the coast vs being based in one place. We stayed here just recently for a week and on one hand it was fine and on the other it was neither here nor there. I’m not sure what it aims to be as a hotel as most of the staff act like it’s another day in the office with little enthusiasm. However this is one hotel of many in what is one of the most beautiful, exciting and unique coastlines in the world so maybe the place sells itself? It provides a 8 person shuttle to its beach and the city centre every 30-45mins which is awesome with the alternative a bus or expensive taxi. The last shuttle back is at 10.45pm from Amalfi city centre so you have to be a bit planned and organised to ensure you’re booked in advance else you could have to get a €50 15mins taxi ride! With most people likely travelling over the Amalfi coast, ones end of the days travelling time can vary so if one can’t get back to their place of stay on holiday cheaply with ease and no stress then that should be factored into staying here. i think at minimum they could offer more later shuttles and in doing so ensures all types of tourist are catered for to fully enjoy the Amalfi experience. The pool and beach facilities are fantastic and the shuttle drops and picks up from the beach which is great. Tip: there is a regular boat taxi from the beach to and from Amalfi harbour which we found out on the last day. Could be handy if you want to do beach morning and Amalfi afternoon without booking the shuttle. Every view from the hotel is absolutely beautiful looking over Amalfi Harbour. I’d also say the breakfast is very limited and for the money I’d have expected more variety and not to be told they have run out of certain items and won’t be getting more. The staff overall are friendly and helpful and we probably would stay here again if it logistically made sense to.

This was the best hotel I have ever stayed in, and far surpassed my expectations! I highly recommend it. Gorgeous views, excellent service, pool is beautiful, rooms are comfortable, food and drinks are delicious! It’s a perfect balance of peacefulness and beauty, but then easily take the shuttle and enjoy downtown Amalfi.

Appena arrivati abbiamo ricevuto la massima attenzione ed accoglienza dal personale della reception. Durante il soggiorno, grazie allo Che Davide Falcone abbiamo potuto vivere esperienze culinarie assaporando pietanze strepitose che hanno reso ancor più lieto e fantastico i momenti di pranzo e cena. Uno staff a dir poco eccezionale, servizio di sala impeccabile, comfort ed igiene al top! E di sera, non può mancare il magico appuntamento in terrazza per un cocktail al chiar di luna! Un ringraziamento al titolare, sempre presente ed attento al benessere degli ospiti. Questa recensione è scritta da un panorama mozzafiato che ogni camera offre con vista sulla costa di Amalfi. Grazie a tutti! Un consiglio… questa costa e’ davvero eccezionale, ma qualche giorno, vivetelo in pieno in questa splendida struttura!

DO NOT BOOK HERE. I booked with every expectation that I'd enjoy a beautiful trip to the Amalfi coast. I paid ahead, as as required, and unfortunately had a family emergency with the loss of a relative. I have the hotel 8 days notice that I had to cancel and they refuse to refund me. 8 DAYS. They stated that I had to provide 16 days notice and therefore fell outside of the their cancellation policy. Given that this was an unexpected family emergency, I could not have known this would happen. I'm devastated to now have to fight this charge of over $2k. Please be careful!!

Escribo en spagnolo porque en italiano tal vez no exprese al 100% o correctamente lo que quiero expresar. Pongo dos * porque me sabe desagradable poner solo una y no suelo hacerlo salvo que me insulten o me escupan. Y sería injusto con muchos de sus empleados y con las vistas más maravillosas que he disfrutado en un hotel en mi vida. Y son muchos hoteles (más de 200…) Empiezo por Lo más positivo: 1) Las vistas, la localización, el entorno. Sencillamente impresionantes. Sul Mare… 2) El servicio de algun@s camarer@s (Lucía, Brenda, Federica, Florencia, Giuseppe, Pasquale…) y de la limpieza (Graziana) es de 5* Gran Lujo. Profesionales, simpáticas y siempre con una sonrisa, a pesar de trabajar desde las 5 a.m. No sé si cobrarán lo que se merecen pero deberían trabajar en otro hotel con muchísimo más nivel/categoría. Están desaprovechadas. 3) La playa privada es una maravilla, paradisíaca y tuvimos la suerte de disfrutarlo en silencio, solo roto por el mar y los pájaros. Solo había dos niños ¡y hablaban bajito!. (Pero le pongo cero estrellas a la gaviota que me cagó en el bañador… 😊). 4) La piscina, sencillamente maravillosa limpia, impoluta y sul mare Lo positivo, lo que nos gustó: El servicio de “Shuttle” (mini van) para subir y bajar a/desde Amalfi y/o la playa privada. Menos el último día que luego describo. Lo peor de lo peor: Voy a intentar ser breve aunque me va a costar. El nivel de ineptitud del responsable/director del restaurante y del Sr. que decida algunas cosas en ese hotel raya el infinito. Insultante e incomprensiblemente absurdo y necio. No sé lo que nos costó la suite de los 7 días porque pagamos el viaje de 11 días todo junto. Pero seguro que no menos de 400-500 € al día. 1) ¡El Capuchino del desayuno en vaso de cartón!. Como en una pensión de 1* de 15 €/la noche. Solo podía ser peor si fueran de plástico y los tiraran al mar una vez usados. Detalle imperdonable. 2) El zumo de Naranja sabía a sandía? artificial y al envase que lo contenía. Una pena. 3) Las patatines fritas son previamente congeladas como las del Mc Donalds Sorprendentemente valen 7 € y te las cobran aunque no las toques. No las pidáis. 4) Mi pareja y yo bebemos cerveza 0,0 Tostada y si es de Estrella Galicia, mejor. La cerveza italiana 0,0 que más nos gusta es la Peroni y, gracias a Dios, había. Y se lo comenté al camarero con una sonrisa el 1er. día. Pero solo había dos. El 2º, 3º, 4º, 5º, 6º y 7º día no había cerveza Peroni 0,0 ni ninguna otra. Y TIENEN UN SUPERMERCADO A 80 m.!, se llama La Florida 5) Ultimo día. Queríamos madrugar 7 a.m., desayunar con las maletas ya hechas (salvo una muda tras la ducha post-playa) para aprovechar el último día y despedirnos de la playa maravillosa pero mala suerte que el 1er. shuttle, el de las 9,00 h., estaba lleno. Lamentablemente teníamos que ir en el de las 9,40 h. No había otra. Nos vamos a la habitación lamentándonos y, ya en la habitación, me acuerdo que no hemos contratado el shuttle de vuelta.
