Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Ravello
A 12th-century pink villa spread across Ravello's hilltop with a pink pool terrace, a Michelin-starred restaurant (Rossellinis), and rooms of extraordinary colour and character. The atmosphere is more intimate and artistic than the Caruso, with similarly extraordinary views.
Amalfi
A cheerful family-run hotel in the centre of Amalfi town with charming, colourfully tiled rooms and a genuinely warm local welcome. The town-centre position, within steps of the cathedral and ferry terminal, is excellent for those exploring the whole coast by boat.
Amalfi
A splendid 1880 villa set in lemon-grove gardens above Amalfi town, connected by private lift to its seawater swimming platforms below, with a restaurant serving authentic Amalfitano cuisine and rooms of refined simplicity. One of the best-value luxury hotels on the coast.
Positano
The defining address of Positano — a converted 18th-century aristocratic villa that has anchored the village's creative and glamorous reputation since 1951, with a pool terrace, the celebrated Champagneria bar, and handmade ceramic-decorated rooms that have been unchanged for generations. John Steinbeck wrote about it for Harper's Bazaar.
Ravello
Ravello's pinnacle of luxury — an 11th-century palazzo atop a 350-metre cliff above the Tyrrhenian Sea, with an infinity pool that appears to pour directly into the horizon, a Belmond spa, and gardens that have enchanted Greta Garbo and Humphrey Bogart. The greatest hotel view in Italy.
Positano
Perched on a cliff face between Positano and Praiano, with rooms and suites carved directly into the rock face — each with a private balcony over the sea and a glass-panelled lift descending to a private beach. One of the most romantic hotel settings in Italy.
