Destination

Sorrento, between coast and sea

Sorrento sits between the Bay of Naples and the Amalfi Coast: citrus gardens, historic lanes, sea crossings and evenings around Piazza Tasso. From the hotel, Capri, Pompeii, Positano and Amalfi become a natural part of the stay.

Arrival by sea

Hydrofoils reach Marina Piccola beneath the cliffs, giving Sorrento an arrival of light, sea and theatre.

Piazza Tasso

The old town, boutiques and historic streets begin just beyond the hotel gates.

Coastal rhythm

Capri, Positano, Amalfi and Pompeii are close enough for the day; the hotel remains the calm return.

Location

In Sorrento, above the sea

Between Piazza Tasso and the cliff edge, the hotel occupies one of Sorrento’s rare addresses: central, panoramic and sheltered by five acres of gardens.

  • Steps from Piazza Tasso and the historic centre.
  • Terraces and rooms facing the Gulf of Naples and Mount Vesuvius.
  • Close to Marina Piccola, coastal routes and classic Campania excursions.
Amalfi Coast

A graceful base for the coast

The coast reveals itself in cliffs, lemon terraces, pastel villages, villas and coves cut into the rock.

Sorrento offers a graceful starting point: lively at the centre, quiet on return, open to Capri, Pompeii, Positano and Amalfi.

“Campania Felix: an ancient name for a land shaped by sea, gardens and light.”
