Guest Reviews
- Ellen (10/5): - The service in this hotel was so outstanding that it made the whole trip. The rooms are very spacious and they have a cool vibe. The patio with the pool/jacuzzi (not hot but nice) is such a beautiful place to enjoy down time and a stunning view. The breakfast was good. The wellness center was not as expected. It was only a sauna and a hot tub that was not nearly hot enough. I didn’t use the spa services but my friends had massages that they enjoyed. Only thing I could point out is that the bathroom design could be better. There needed more hooks for towels in the bathroom and by the pool. They needed more counter space by the sink. There is no privacy for the shower. It is also about 15 minutes to Sorrento Center so we needed to take a taxi and they are not cheap.
- Dean (10/5): - The staff were amazing. They could not do enough for you. The room was equally amazing with fantastic views and the pool in the balcony area was the icing on the cake 👌😍
- Georgia (10/5): - Most incredible stay! We came for our honeymoon and were blown away by the hotel. The package we got with the wellness area was amazing, breakfast was wonderful and the staff were extremely professional and attentive. We travelled to a few places and this hotel was our favourite. I will say that the location is a fair bit of effort to get to Sorrento but it was great if you want to stay in the area and are happy to travel in.
- Nicola (10/5): - Ottimo albergo, accoglienza eccellente.
- Anthony (10/5): - Amazing place !
- Annalise (10/5): - I greatly enjoyed my stay at Laqua. Luigi is the star of Laqua, ensuring that breakfast was delivered timely and going above and beyond to make sure that guests were taken care of during the entire stay. Laqua provides a warm and enjoyable boutique hotel experience and the views of the coastline, with access to the hot tub just outside the room, makes for an unforgettable experience.
- May (10/5): - Incredible stay, wonderful staff, stunning location
- Norvile (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay at this place and will definetely come back! Everything was perfect… The view from the room was spectacular, the SPA was relaxing and the breakfast was wonderful! We are also really grateful that you accepted our little dog with such a warm welcome! Highly recommended this place.
- Davide (10/5): - Vista meravigliosa, colazione eccezionale e personale gentilissimo ed accogliente.
Così e così la spa, un po' troppo piccola, mi aspettavo molto di più.
- Luigi (10/5): - Location meravigliosa
- Verified traveler (8/5): - ottima location con un affaccio sul mare al dir poco incantevole, personale qualificato e gentilissimo.
- Luisa (4/5): Poteva andare meglio - Inizialmente molto gradevole, poi i problemi sono nati una volta scesi in piscina all'esterno del balconcino della stanza, purtroppo oltre al fatto di essere molto gelida l'acqua, c'era una immensa quantità di cloro che era impraticabile fare il bagno per colpa del bruciore sia al corpo che agli occhi. Purtroppo rimaniamo delusi perché come il buon Antonino Cannavacciuolo ci insegna se la pasta è salata ci sta poco da fare va rifatta, in quel caso l'acqua della piscina andava cambiata e riscaldata.
- Giuseppina (10/5): Strepitosoooo - Hotel favoloso ..camere pazzesche con piscina e vista mare .. personale gentilissimo !!!perfetta l' Accoglienza ..un ringraziamento speciale va a Roberta e Giuseppe per essere stati davvero carini con noi !!! Location giusta per festeggiare come me una data speciale ..nella bellissima Meta di Sorrento
- Verified traveler (4/5): Misleading - Booked 3 rooms for a few nights. Free spa once per stay doesn't include massage. During check in they asked us to pick which massage we wanted. We thought that this was included in the "Free spa," however they ended up charging us at the end of the stay. They didn't inform this to us when they asked us to pick the massage.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was very hard to find the entrance. It’d be better to change the sign bigger. Also, parking lot is not in the building. Quite far away from the hotel.
The pool in your room is room temperature, which means you can’t use it from October because it’s too cold to get in the water. Should’ve been noted on the website.
- Dominique (10/5): - Un service irréprochable toujours souriant et prévenant
Une vue exceptionnelle
Peut-être un petit manque d’inti Sur la terrasse
Bonne pioche!!!!
- Marco (10/5): Veramente perfetto - Tutto perfetto
- ANTONIETTA (10/5): ESPERIENZA FANTASTICA - UN SOGGIORNO STUPENDO PER TUTTO
- Verified traveler (10/5): Anbefales - Vi hadde et fantastisk opphold her under vår bryllupsreise. Fine rom, nydelig terrasse med eget basseng, hyggelig og serviceinnstilte ansatte og et deilig spaområde. Anbefales på det sterkeste!
- Grit (10/5): Absolut Top!!!!!!! - Sehr schöne und moderne Unterkunft in ruhiger Lage direkt auf einem Felsen über dem Meer. Pool ein Traum. Entspannung und Erholung pur.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Originale la struttura della camera, cosa che al contempo costituisce anche l'aspetto negativo della stessa, in quanto l'esistenza della piscina esterna presente di fronte ad ogni camera, le quali peraltro sono una di fianco dall'altra, non consente ALCUNA privacy in camera per gli ospiti
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Struttura moderna con tutte le sue comodità, panorama mozzafiato, il fiore all’occhiello è la piscina privata sul terrazzo di ogni stanza vista mare.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - La struttura è pulita, personale cordiale, vista stupenda sul mare. La camera è molto grande. L’unica pecca è che l’acqua della vasca esterna Non è riscaldata. È davvero un peccato, perché altrimenti avrei dato il massimo del giudizio
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Camera curato con ogni minimo dettaglio, vista spettacolare e personale disponibile e gentilissimo.
- Myriam (10/5): - Un piccolo angolo di paradiso nel cuore di Meta. Camera molto confortevole con vista eccezionale. Personale molto cortese e disponibile. Colazione ottima. Mezzi pubblici nelle immediate vicinanze che permettono di spostarsi comodamente verso la Costiera Amafitana.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Basic - Overall stay was ok. Hotel was hard to get to and nothing really around the area. Breakfast was basic. Staff very helpful. Views from the bedroom were amazing!
- Katherine (10/5): - Amazing staff and amazing quality for a private hotel
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Vabbè... un piccolo angolo di paradiso! Appena entri hai subito la sensazione di relax... con quel panorama poi... mix perfetto con la musica di sottofondo! Bisogna godersi a pieno la stanza.. e i comfort che offre!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - stay was very good. exellente room, view and staff
we enjoyed every moment
highly recommended
- Kaylyn (10/5): - We had such a fabulous stay at Laqua Charme! Enough can’t be said about how beautiful and exclusive this hotel is. Luigi worked with us the most on making sure we were welcomed, planning our day trips and making sure we had the best possible stay. The rest of the staff were delightful and so very accommodating. There are a few nice places to eat near by and we loved the private, small town feel of the beach a 2 minute walk or elevator lift ride below provided. Staying here was the best possible place to stay to round out our busy “Taste of Italy” trip! Thank you so much again! Cheers!

- sara (10/5): Experiencia en Meta - Superó las expectativas
- James (10/5): A very comfortable stay - Very modern and staffed by very helpful professional staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Their advice on trips and local facilities was very advantageous and helped with our stay. Situated just 4k from Sorrento which was a great choice. A very well run hotel with a very nice breakfast Italian style ( Not eggs and bacon). A great choice of hotel that I cannot rate highly enough.
- Angela (10/5): - Excellent, 5 stars all the way!! Laqua is a hidden gem and I’m so glad I came across it. This was our last stop on our two week Italy vacation and it was AMAZING! Luigi and the entire staff were amazing from the moment we arrived. Luigi gave us a tour of the property and was very thorough regarding booking excursions, restaurant recommendations, transportation, etc. The views from our room were breathtaking! After a long day we would come back to the hotel and relax in the spa & watch the sunset from our pool. Breakfast was delicious, fresh & lots of variety. The location is perfect and not too touristy but still very close to Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast. Will definitely stay at Laqua again!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Stupendo hotel sul mare ma con molta privacy - Week end di puro relax e coccole le camere hanno tutto di quello di cui si ha bisogno piscina compresa
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Best hotel on the coast. Skip Sorrento, amalfi, positano. This place in meta was amazing, lido marionella was amazing, tico Tico was amazing!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect - Best hotel I have ever stayed in my husband and I had such an amazing time it’s such a nice calming atmosphere within a great location
- Agnieszka (10/5): What a gem of a hotel! - We stayed for a week for our honeymoon and OMG, we couldn't have picked a better hotel! The views form our room were spectacular, and I loved the plunge pool on our patio doorstep. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, everything was local and fresh, and there was lots of choice.
Special thanks to Luigi and other staff, who made sure we had everything we needed and took great care of us. We would definitely come back!
- Moreno (10/5): Viaggio TOP firmato Laqua charme & boutique - Viaggio al TOP, struttura, location, staff, stanze, servizi, qualità cibi per la colazione.... consigliatissimo
- Verified traveler (10/5): Fabulous Hotel - great views, lovely room, helpful staff. A really relaxing stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Der Blick vom Pool auf das Meer ist atemberaubend schön. Sehr reichhaltiges Frühstück. Rundum Service perfekt.
- Lily (10/5): Best hotel I've ever stayed in! - I booked this hotel for my boyfriends birthday and the staff were very accommodating with little extras that I requested for the room such as balloons, prosecco, cake and rose petals. Walking in to our room was breathtaking, with a view of sorrento Coast and the sea, it was a beautiful way to watch the sunrise and sunset. Very spacious room with balcony and plunge pool made it extra special. The softest bed to sleep in, modern design, spotless room. Spa area was very relaxing and private, breakfast was gorgeous with lots of variety. Bus stop only a few metres away which goes directly to sorrento main square. Couldn't fault our stay.
- M (10/5): Amazing view - amazing rooms
very friendly staff
calm area
nice for couple
very comfortable bed
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely hotel, very small but beautiful views - Great staff, fabulous breakfast, lovely views from the balcony & plunge pool.
- shelly (8/5): - Great views of meta bay / Sorrento
Lovely, helpful & attentive staff.
super rooms and plunge pool
3min to beach (steps & lift)
10mins to train station
1min to bus stop
Everything accessible
Only issue: if you've noisy neighbours it can ruin your peaceful stay as all rooms are close and I had 1 set of inconsiderate neighbours. But not hotels fault X
- Penelope (8/5): Fantastic honeymoon stay - We stayed at Laqua on our recent honeymoon trip and we are so pleased we chose this place! The room was so comfortable and the views from the room are stunning. The staff are so friendly and would help with anything we needed. It was optional to have breakfast brought to the room which was a lovely service. We also ordered pizza to the room one evening this was so good and really reasonably priced. There are only 6 rooms so it has a very personal feel, We would definitely recommend this hotel.
- L (10/5): Amazing - The views were incredible and the location of the hotel was great for surrounding areas. The staff were all lovely and very helpful, can't recommend this hotel enough! We will be coming back next year definitely worth staying here.
- Andrew (10/5): Simply superb! - Fantastic boutique hotel. Wonderful sea view from the room. Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean modern rooms that were very comfortable. Indoor sauna and plunge pool were great. Wifi worked well. Top spot!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - A beautiful small hotel close to the beach. It is within easy reach of Sorrento and all the main attractions but is situated in a typical Italian village away from the hustle and bustle of the traditional seaside resorts.
- BERNARDO (8/5): - excellent stay
- Robbie (10/5): Lovely quiet and personal hotel in a lovely place - Laqua is a perfect hotel get-away for those wanting to escape the hustle and bustle. The hotel is within Meta, a quiet, predominantly Italian orientated town (much cheaper and friendlier than nearby Sorrento). Laqua has the feel of a luxury boutique spa, with a sauna and salt bath accessible for the days you don't want to leave the hotel.
There are only six rooms which makes the hotel a more personal experience and the staff could not do more to help you and make your stay comfortable in every way possible (e.g. arrange tours, taxis and food if you want to order to your room).
The views to Sorrento and Capri are amazing from the balcony and with a brilliant infinity pool! After a ten minute walk to the train station you are only a short 5 minutes / 2.40 euros return fare to be in the busy resort of Sorrento.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great hotel with incredible views - A fantastic start to our honeymoon, the views from the balcony were amazing and the staff were so helpful. Would definitely recommend this hotel to others.
- Ann (10/5): A Cut above the norm - An absolute gem of a hotel. Spotless, stylish, friendly with a view over the Gulf of Naples that would take some beating and sunsets that can't be described. All of the staff are efficient, particularly Gianluca and Luigi who are extremely amiable as well as knowledgable. Meta itself is a nice, if a little quiet, town. That suited us perfectly and with a very reasonable and reliable bus service just 30 metres from the hotel access to other parts of the coast such as Sorrento is easy. There are a couple of good restaurants around the hotel and Tiko Tiko is probably the best of these. Opposite the hotel however is a cafe called Insieme who serve delightful mussels and a really light ( as opposed to stodgy) pizza and the young waitress, Flavia, is a mine of information in half a dozen languages. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
- Carolyn (10/5): Amazing time in Meta!! - This hotel was wonderful. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. They booked a great boat trip to Capri that I highly recommend anyone to go on (the company picks you up and drops you back at the hotel -- what could be easier). Walking into the hotel is like walking into a relaxing spa. Our room had the most beautiful view of the water and our own private pool. You are in walking distance to the train station which makes it very easy to go visit Pompeii or Sorrento.
If you are looking for quiet, relaxing (but close to activities) hotel, I would highly recommend this one.
