Our experience was very nice here. The property in some places is showing its age but we stayed in a newly renovated room( although many are not remodeled yet). The shuttle service was very consistent and convenient and their private beach club is what makes this hotel special, although the elevator down to the beach didn't work well and we had to walk back up the many stairs back up to road level. Food was decent. Pool is older and not super clean but you have the beach. Staff was very nice and helpful.

A fantastic hotel in every sense

Unbelievable hotel, prime location on the hill side and only a 10 minute (max) shuttle ride into the town centre (or private beach) which is totally free and every 15 minutes both ways. The views are without a doubt the best in Amalfi. The staff are fantastic and super attentive. We would come back in a heartbeat and miss it already.

A absolute MUST stay in Amalfi. I’ve been once before and found this hotel last minute and it exceeded ALL expectations! Location: I was hesitant at first as being in the hills can be challenging to get around however, the shuttle service they offered was really easy and 10 mins to the Amalfi town centre. Also, the view from every part of the grounds and our room was absolutely breathtaking all hours of the day. Room: Updated and brand new inside the rooms. The rooms come with a tablet that allows you to book the shuttle, order room service, etc. Amenities: The daily breakfast offered a wide range of delicious food. Had dinner once (on our last night) and it was quick and was very good. The private beach club was very convenient and the shuttle takes you directly there. The cost of food/drinks was very reasonable for being such an isolated gorgeous location. Staff: beyond professional and VERY attentive. They remembered our names and made the entire experience very memorable. Overall, we will be coming back to this hotel hands down.

Gorgeous views and nice pool area. Variety offered at breakfast was great. Bartending and wait staff very friendly. There is no where you can walk to so you have to rely on the shuttle and we couldn’t always get a ride when we wanted it.

We loved this hotel. The views were incredible and the service was excellent. They had a lovely pool and private beach. Everyone was very accommodating of my gluten and dairy allergies and we ate at the hotel restaurant for many of our meals. The shuttle service takes you to the private beach and downtown Amalfi, right near the ferry dock.

Beautiful property with amazing customer service from all areas of the team. The shuttle is a nice service to get you to city square center and it's easy to book from you room. Food was good for lunch and dinner. Breakfast was a small selection of baked goods, cereal and few items on a hot bar. Pool was not the cleanest and very cold- but perhaps that's on par for a may stay.

Best view and the patio was great. Having said that….decor needs updated including furnishings in room (shelf or table in bathroom for example). No plugs near bed, and the lights on nightstands had a short and didn’t seem safe. Tablet a good concept but not practical. Had to use tablet for tv but if you put tablet on the table at night after turning off tv, it is dead in the morning and you can’t turn on tv. No coffee pot in room. Shuttle scheduling didn’t work and not enough availability, shuttle was always full. Fantastic views but be aware, no access to city except the shuttle. Listing says 2 restaurants, but actually only one which you can order from restaurant or bar area. If you don’t like menu, no other options.
