- Juan Sebastián (10/5): -
- Valerio (10/5): - Personale molto attento e cortese , camera pulita e confortevole, colazione in camera ad orario richiesto , davvero contenti di aver soggiornato in questa struttura.
Piacevole sorpresa personale altamente disponibile e professionale
- Harris (9/5): Maria was absolutely amazing, so helpful and a wonderful host. - Very clean and central location Balcony over a very busy and heavily polluted road
- Pat (10/5): Wonderful stay in heart of Sorento - Comfortable bed, spotless room with balcony overlooking the street and hills around us, with excellent air conditioning. Room had all the mod cons we could ever want. Our lovely host -Maria Teresa was available all the time, although we had no problems whatsoever.
Location was within a few minutes walking distance of the port and all the attractions in Sorento Everything was perfect
- Robbin (10/5): Great hostess, comfortable bed, nice breakfast and centrally located. - Centrally located. Maria was absolutely wonderful, explained everything, gave helpful suggestions about food , which we tried Pizza de Franco, and it was great..especially the tiramisu. Bed was extremely comfortable, a nice breakfast was served in our room. I wish I had stayed another day in Sorrento, but this just gives me an excuse to return! There was nothing I didn’t like…it was great.
- Ray (10/5): Had a fabulous 4 days stay at the hotel. Teresa was lovely and so informative and was in touch constantly to help wit - Lovely room x lovely and clean and bright and a really nice terrace to sit out Nothing
- sara (10/5): מומלץ מאוד - מקום האירוח קרוב מאוד למרכז, למסעדות, ולכל נקודות העניין שיש לסורנטו להציע.
בעלת הדירה נחמדה מאוד, המליצה על מסעדות ומקומות מומלצים באזור.
היתרון הנוסף של המקום שיש לו חנייה פרטית בתשלום.
- Florence (6/5): - Das Zimmer war sauber und das Bett sehr gut. Die Gastgeberin war sehr freundlich Das Frühstück war mit Liebe zubereitet. Allerdings kann das nur auf dem Balkon mit Abgasen und Autolärm eingenommen werden.
Die Fotos stimmen vielleicht für ein Zimmer. Für diese Leistung war der Preis mit 300 Euro pro Nacht zu hoch.
- Catarina (8/5): - I wish the property was as advertised. No 24 hour desk so I had to wait for check in. Also said pool but you had to pay to use a pool that belongs to an actual hotel. The personal efforts and enthusiasm was appreciated but not what was advertised. Also, shower leaks, a few ants in the room, and towels awful.
- Paul (10/5): Great place, great owner, great location - Maria was extremely helpful throughout our stay and was a pleasure to speak to.
Breakfast on the balcony is a great touch, even down to asking how you would like your coffee served each day.
Location of the apartment is amazing, and facilities are comfy and clean and modern. The balcony is loud during peak traffic hours but you cannot have the location without the noise, and the doors do a great job at blocking this out while you sleep.
- Zein Balhas (9/5): Wonderful and highly recommended. - The breakfast was served on time with very fresh yummy croissant. Maria was very very helpful. She guided us to great restaurants and tours. The tours she recommended were wow. Really had a great stay with very warm welcome. Everything was great. The room, service, and location. One thing we didn't love is the noise at the balcony since the hotel is located in the centre. But when inside the room there is no noise at all.
- Alan (6/5): - It should be made clearer that this property is not a hotel.
- Jonatan (9/5): Superb -
- Tom (10/5): Maria Teresa and her family (the owners) are wonderful people. They care about their guests and take good care of them - We originally booked 5 nights and enjoyed the property, the owners, and the city so much that we extended our stay 2 extra nights. The room was very comfortable and very clean. We had an excellent breakfast every morning. We ate on our balcony which overlooked an orange grove with mountains in the background. It was a beautiful way to start our day. The location is perfect. A short walk from the train station and close to Piazza Tasso. We liked everything about this property. We had a great time. The owners are beautiful people.
- Sara (10/5): Very private and comfortable. Maria Teresa was always available. - Centrally located and could walk to everything that we needed. All was great.
- Diane (9/5): Sorrento - Lovely accommodation, everything we needed for our 5 night stay. Was great to also have a balcony which we had breakfast served to us every morning at flexible times. There was nothing. Only on booking.com it states there is a swimming pool but it’s at another hotel and costs 25€ pp for sun bed & towel, it’s 5min walking distance.
- Lyndon (10/5): - Our stay at Bougainvillea Relais was wonderful. Maria was an excellent host! The room was very clean, bed was extremely comfortable, short walk to the main sights in town. Incredible restaurant right outside the door. We also took part in a recommended Amalfi Coast day trip and Capri tour which didnt dissapoint.
- Mürsel (7/5): Good -
- Martin (7/5): Enjoyable, pleasant. - Very clean room - well maintained property. The host Maria Theresa was accessible and helpful and the property was within easy walking distance of the main spots in Sorrento. The property was on a busy main road with the balcony overlooking the road.
- Nasser (10/5): Exceptional - Maria Teresa was an exceptional host! Very helpful, and the location was ideal. Central, with walking distance to both the main town center and bus and train stations. We loved the breakfast, served every morning on our veranda. The tour Maria suggest was perfect.
- Dev (10/5): Two thumbs up! - Perfect location a short and pleasant walk to city center and easy access to the Almafi coast. My wife and I couldn't have been happier during our 3 day stay. Breakfast served on our balcony was fresh and delicious and the host went above and beyond to help with activity planning and restaurant options! We can't wait to return.
- Catherine (9/5): Highly recommended. A little gem - Maria Teresa was an excellent host. We got a bit lost finding the property and she very kindly waited outside on the pavement for us. She was friendly and helpful and could not have been more welcoming. The property was very clean and very well appointed. She also gave us loads of helpful suggestions for our stay. It was a bit noisy on the balcony but the windows were of sufficient high quality that this was not an issue for us.
- Bokil (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rebecca (10/5): Awesome Place to Stay. - Property was in an ideal location. Within walking distance to most anything you need. Property has a modern arrangement and staff was very attentive. Maria Teresa helped arrange a day trip for us and checked on us regularly. Saman delivered breakfast promptly every morning and kept the rooms tidy. Coundnt ask for a better experience.
- Wanda (10/5): Had a lovely four day stay in Sorrento - We had a lovely four night stay at this hotel. The room was exceptionally clean and the bed very comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and the rainshower had hot water and plenty of room. Maria Theresa was a perfect host. She came to check us in and was a wealth of information for sightseeing, tours and general info. She was very responsive and to easy to communicate with through WhatsApp. Each morning a lovely breakfast arrived that we could sit out on the balcony and enjoy. We would definitely recommend this place.
- Hana (10/5): Exceptional - Ms Teresa was very helpful and guided us on many useful things to do . She provided for us a daily fresh croissants and cake with breakfast.
a wonderful experience worth repeating.
- Gabriela (8/5): Very good -
- Amara (10/5): wonderful place to stay! - Teresa was incredible ! extremely professional and very helpful. The room itself was clean and spacious. the only thing we were misinformed about was the pool- we thought this was included with the booking but once we arrived it was told to us that it was 20euro per person per day.
- Brian (7/5): Visit the Amalfi coast it is spectacular. Don't stay in Sorrento. - The breakfast was excellent. It was about a ten minute walk to town so fairly central. the room was small but adequate. The staff are delightful and helpful. Everything was clean and was cleaned daily. It is located on Sorrento's main road and was noisy 24 hours a day. It is small and breakfast has to be eaten on the outside deck with traffic especially motorcycles rushing by very noisily all the time. Booking.Com advertised the hotel as having a pool. This is not true! The property has an agreement with another hotel that guests can use the pool for a fee of 20 euros per person per day. Extremely misleading and disappointing. There are photos of the pool on bookings website which make it look like it is part of the hotel.
Also the photos of the outside of the hotel show tress and greenery. This is across a busy street on a steep hill. the views from the balconies are of cars, street and clothes hanging to dry from nearby apartments. Again misleading. Shame on you booking.com. First and last time we will use you.
- Rina (2/5): Very poor - This is not a hotel. It was very noisy and impossible to slerp
- Weitzman (9/5): excellent experience all around with outstanding service. - great location to walk to Piazza Tasso—the center of Sorrento dining & shopping. Maria Teresa and her staff were extremely welcoming and helpful. Breakfast service was outstanding in every way. Fresh towels daily. if you face the Corso Italia there’s quite a bit of traffic noise as early as 5 AM. The process to check in, get keys etc is a bit cumbersome. not a problem once you’ve got the keys, but you should be aware. While we didn’t use it, we were not aware that the pool location was not on the property and that there was a significant charge for usage. Again, something that should be made clear upfront.
- David (9/5): Good host and great room easy walking distance from the town and train station. - The breakfast was good and on time every day. Maria was very accommodating and good with communication, helping us book a place on a tour and recommending local things to see. The room was spacious and balcony good enough size for breakfast. Maria was a great host. The location it convenient, however the road outside is a bit noisy during the daytime (just traffic noise). I must emphasise you barely hear this with the balcony door closed (and the room has air conditioning) and of course theres nothing the owner can do about traffic. We had breakfasts on the balcony but it was rather noisy. This did not spoil our stay though.
- Behzat (7/5): Good - “The apartment was clean and in a fantastic location, making it easy to explore the area. The landlord was very friendly and offered great tips for our stay. Overall, a pleasant experience!” “The towels provided were very old and worn, indicating they had been used many times and were of poor quality. Additionally, the breakfast was disappointing and did not meet expectations.”
- Rafael (7/5): Nice room with a kind of small bathroom- think that for the price you can get a fuii serviced hotel room. - Good A/C system! It’s not a Hotel so you depend on a person to get in and register-we were tired and waited over 25 minutes.
The lady was very nice and excused herself.
- Cristina (2/5): Horrible - Nothing Its advertised as a hotel; it’s NOT!!!
- Anita (9/5): We enjoyed our stay very much. - The location is within walking distance of the train station, but if you are an older traveler, you might want to take a taxi. Our host, Maria Teresa, was wonderful and was very willing to make our stay the best. A list of excursions was provided before we arrived, as well as a booklet in the room. A light breakfast was included in the room price and was brought to the room each day by Saman (who was helpful and delightful). A nice Irish Pub is next door and a very popular restaurant is nearby. Breakfast was not available until 8 AM, so if you have an early excursion you will need to plan ahead.
- George (8/5): Great location for exploring - Staff were super helpful and go over and beyond to get what you need
Breakfast in bed is a lovely touch that the hotel offer.
Location is perfect for the train station and only a short walk to the centre Property is situated on a busy road meaning lots of moped beeping late at night unfortunately.
- Mike (8/5): Lovely property, really good location and Maria was most helpful. Always prompt on replying to messages - The property was amazing, really clean and really comfortable. When sat on the balcony the road can be noisy
- Adam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daniela (10/5): Beautiful room in the heart of sorrento! Maria Theresa was a gem! - Clean and spacious! Everything we needed! Lovely balcony! Maria was so friendly and helpful and was always on hand throughout our stay and booked our excursion to capri which was amazing! Location was excellent short 10 minute walk into main sorrento so super handy as we didnt need to get any public transport. The breakfast was also a lovely touch hand delivered to our room so we could enjoy on the balcony everyday! Nothing
- Ralph (6/5): - A photo with the pool is very misleading. Definitely overpriced for a small room. This is not the hotel Bougainvillea Relais. In fact, the hotel is several blocks away and their is no access to the hotel except for a $20 per person pool pass. The bathroom was clean but there was a ring of black mold around the ceiling. That was cleaned after I complained. Towels were like sand paper and the sheets were worn and tattered.
- Rose (9/5): Enjoyable - The breakfast was lovely, really delicious. Having it delivered to your room was great. The room over looked a very very busy road. It was extremely loud at night , (Even with steel shutter closed). It was difficult to sleep as not used to lot of traffic noise.
- Joan (8/5): Nice place - Bed comfortable. Clean.
Management very nice and helpful. Maria Teresa was great. Roughest towels ever.
You could pay reasonable price for laundry service but clothes all too wrinkled to wear.
- Carolina (10/5): Beautiful Sorrento with a great place to stay - The place was clean and confortable.
Close to everything. Perfect place to stay. Also close to the train!
Teresa is a super kind person! she gave us all the information we needed!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely room with balcony breakfast! - We had the most lovely stay in Sorrento!
The location is very central and a great base to wander around Sorrento, and 5 minutes walk to the station for access to Pompeii / the Amalfi coast.
Maria Teresa was so helpful throughout our stay - she was always available whenever we needed advice and helped us make arrangements even at short notice.
Our highlight was daily breakfast on the balcony - the fresh croissants were delicious!
Thank you!

- Louise (9/5): Superb -
- Sue (10/5): An excellent stay in a fab location close to many bars and restaurants. - Breakfast was brought to our room at the time we had requested and was an excellent continental selection. Croissants were amazing. The location was fabulous, just a 10 minute easy walk to the main square. The host was both very friendly and helpful. Nothing, as we thoroughly enjoyed our few days here and wished we could have stayed longer.
- Emeric (10/5): Great holiday stay! - Maria is very helpful and the location of the property is excellent!
- Andrew (10/5): Home away from home - What an amazing host! Great location, very comfortable - amazing breakfast in the room every morning! Would defiantly recommend and be back! Room opens to a busy road, but only busy during the day so did not impact us a huge amount!
- Sonia (10/5): Very comfortable and convenient place to stay with lovely host. - Very central to town, train and bus only 5 mins walk. Quiet location at night. Host was very friendly, provided tourist information and makes the best croissants in Italy. Breakfast is served in your room. With breakfast served in your room you cannot decide the last minute to sleep in.
- Anonymous (10/5): we stayed here for the weekend in Sorrento for our anniversary! Maria and staff were amazing with accommodating us and m - Thé property was located close to the city center and train station and was a lovely room which was cleaned well everyday.
- Matthew (10/5): - Maria was amazing! 5 stars
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Beatrice (10/5): - Maria Teresa is a wonderful hostess and helpful in suggesting tours, the beach, restaurants, etc. She is very accessible. Our room was clean and comfortable. It was great to have the delicious breakfast brought to the room each morning at the time requested and to be able to eat out on the patio. Being within walking distance to nearby restaurants, shops, the Lift down to the beach and port, was great.
- Kerry (9/5): Great location, comfortable accom - Clean, good location, air con! Very comfortable bed. Great breakfast.
Very response host and good staff. Noisy road - main Corso Italia outside. However once French door were closed you couldn’t hear it - amazing!
- David (5/5): Would not stay again. But I blame the misrepresentation by Booking - The room was clean. The breakfast was incredible. You could walk mostly to anything. We spent 1.5 hours trying to find it. No sign. It is not a hotel as listed by Booking. It is a few rooms next to an unaffiliated hotel managed by Maria. Shower leaked all over. She tried hard to sell tours
- Joe (9/5): Superb -
- Maria (9/5): A great host and comfortable accommodation. - The accommodation was in an excellent location- close enough to be near the centre within a short walk but not so close as to be noisy and disruptive. The room was well presented, comfortable and scrupulously clean. Maria Teresa was a great, friendly and informative host who went out of her way with communication before and throughout our stay, including securing places on tours for us. We would recommend Bougainvillea Relais to anyone wanting to visit Sorrento. Grazie Mille! N/A
- Anastasia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paul (9/5): Great hosts and services. Fantastic contact and updates which were much appreciated. - Central location with an excellent breakfast. The central location was noisy which can’t be helped.
- Din (10/5): Perfect - Amazing Nothing
- Sofia (9/5): Superb - The room was as described, very clean and comfortable. Maria Teresa was an excellent host, promptly responding to messages and very accommodating. Breakfast was great, there were also good restaurants and local shops nearby. Air-conditioning worked well too, which is a must with the hot weather! We enjoyed our stay, nothing we didn't really like. It's about a 10 minute walk to the piazza. Not too much of an issue as it's a nice flat walk, but it's a little harder when the weather is extremely hot. Be prepared to pay 20 euro for pool access at a nearby hotel. The pool area was nice though.
- Ann (10/5): We had an amazing stay with everything we needed and the location was perfect! - Everything was of an excellent standard and the host was friendly, informative and very helpful. Nothing!
- Charlotte (9/5): Great stay. Excellent location. - Continental breakfast brought to the room each day. Great location, walking distance from train station and to all attractions in Sorrento. Maria Teresa is attentive, gave helpful suggestions for activities and helped us to book tours. Not a huge issue, but the linens could be a little more plush/softer.
- Lauren (10/5): Perfect location in Sorrento - We have just returned from our five night trip to Sorrento. Our room was the perfect size for what we needed, and was cleaned to a very high standard every day. The accommodation is in a good central location, the main square in Sorrento is a short walk away. Maria is so friendly and has been extremely helpful and provided us with recommendations for places to eat/drink and activities to do in the local area. We would definitely return here.
- Anonymous (10/5): The rooms we’re comfortable and the AC worked great. Maria was very nice and easy to work with - The property was very clean. There is no front desk but we were in touch with Maria every day and she gave great instructions on how to get in the property and she helped set up taxis for us that their was no front desk but communication with Maria was great thru text messages
- Lydia (8/5): Sweet little room - Lovely room but very small. Nice breakfast delivered to your room every morning and served on the balcony. Our balcony faced the street so it was too loud to sit out there. No full-length mirror. For us, it was a bit far from the main square, about a 10-15 minute walk. The owner was very helpful with tours and taxis. We even locked ourselves out of the room and she had to come all the way back.
- Jinshi (9/5): Excellent place to stay - Modern finished room, exceptionally clean, convenient location, super friendly staff sensitive sleepers might have a hard time to sleep, as the noise from the road is almost non stopping, even at night. The management has tried their best to have soundproofing balcony doors which muffled the noise somewhat, but the noise level may still be high for some sleepers.
- Stephanie (10/5): AMAZING host, location and rooms - you won't regret this splurge - Breakfast - so good and cool to be able to enjoy on your patio
Host - AMAZING!!!! We loved her.
Location - Right next to a TikTok famous restaurant that she also recommended we go to. Best meal I had in all of Italy. Also right by a fun & friendly bar we had pre-dinner drinks at.
Minibar - great to have a stocked mini-bar.
Rooms - clean and nice rooms too!
Tours - offered and coordinated local tours. My parents did a Gelato making one Cash Euros to pay city tax. I know that's the norm....
- James (10/5): - So happy we found this place. It’s a great place to stay in Sorrento!
Teresa the proprietor was a gracious host who made sure everything was taken care of. Cappuccino, croissants and yogurt breakfast on the balcony was a perfect way to start the day. It’s walkable to downtown Sorrento to access to shops and restaurants. The memory foam was very comfortable, the auto shades make the room completely dark and the sound proof doors kept the street noise out. Just the way we like it. Like all European hotels the rooms are small but comfortable for two people.
There’s a terrific Italian restaurant just next door where the food and service was amazing at an affordable price. We did the Pompeii tour that Teresa was able to secure for us and would recommend it for anyone visiting the area. Teresa also has a restaurant in downtown with the same name that serves pizza, pasta and gelato. We stopped and had Neapolitan pizza and it was very good. Better than the one we had in Rome.
Overall a great place to stay at an affordable price. Would highly recommend.
- Debra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kate (10/5): Perfect location, incredibaly clean, the best hosts! - Location - very central perfect for walking to restaurants, lovely local restaurants around! Whilst also being quiet - we had no noise from the road or neighbours it was so peaceful!
Clean - VERY clean, everything was spotless! no
Hosts - so friendly and super accommodating, we were a very last minute booking and they helped us immediately! They came and met us straight away, room was ready! Really lovely hosts, I didn't feel like a bother (even though I checked in 10 minutes after booking online - so grateful!!)
Breakfast - was delicious!! Flexible with timings, brought it directly to our door, asked us what coffee we liked, felt very personal and friendly.
Lovely space - nice shower, lovely balcony, great smart TV, coffee and tea facilities, super comfy bed and pillows!
I would highly recommend!!
- Angela (10/5): - Beds were super comfortable. We were greeted when we arrived and María Teresa was very helpful and welcoming including suggestions for tours and sightseeing.
- Lorraine (10/5): would go back in a heart beat! - absolutely everything! it was central and spotlessly clean we loved it! nothing
- Itay (10/5): great place to stay in Sorrento - The room was very clean and comfortable , we had everything we need .
the location is great !
the bed is very comfortable
the room has nice balcony nothing
- Nicola (10/5): A wonderful stay in a beautiful place. Fabulous relaxing room and very friendly hostess - We caught a train from Naples to Sorrento. Returned to Naples on Ferry. The host had texted us the day before to ask if we needed collecting, time of estimated arrival etc... It was easy to locate the Hotel. We arrived far too early but were accommodated with a welcoming smile and not a problem. The room was an ideal size, memory foam beds, attention to detail which felt luxurious, boutique style, exceptionally clean and a good priced mini bar. The balcony was lovely. Fresh air and privacy as patio doors onto balcony also converted to a window with curtains and electric operated shutters. Host was very friendly. A wonderful breakfast was delivered to the patio at the times we asked. We absolutely loved it and wish we had been able to stay longer. The streets were so clean and shops inviting. It felt very peaceful. Having to leave.... I cannot fault the room, the location, the breakfast or the host . Wonderful.
- Cameron (10/5): Brilliant location, wonderful host who speaks perfect English and a very clean, lovely room. - Our host, Theresa, was absolutely lovely, greeted us persnally and helped guide me into the parking. She also gave us a lot of suggestions for dining and visiting the area. The room was perfectly clean, had a lovely outlook and was perfect for our quick overnight stay. Honestly couldn't faul the property at all, for the money it was just perfect.
- Janice (10/5): awesome location. very friendly hosts. would definitely recommend! Maria Teresa was so great to deal with and very acco - proximity to everything. friendliness of the staff
- Anne-Marie (8/5): - Excellent location, staff extremely helpful, property clean, comfortable with enough storage for a 5 day stay. Small issue with plumbing that was sorted immediately. We were very happy to stay & would return. Although pool not attached to property it is no more than a 2 minute walk from property, we’re the amenities are excellent & staff friendly, very relaxing & well kept.
- Teresa (10/5): Brilliant Accomodation - We highly recommend Bougainvillea Relais! The room was spacious lovely and clean with a sweet balcony to enjoy our breakfast which was served promptly at a time that suited us. Fresh pastries, fruit juice & more. Maria Teresa was super helpful with any assistance we could need, be it transport, tour guides, restaurants. All in all very kind & generous with her time . Samal the room service gentleman also deserves a special mention as he delivered our breakfast & more always with a smile and politeness that made the start of our day super positive.
- Anonymous (9/5): Sorrento is a bustling tourist destination and just a short train ride to Pompeii. The host Maria is extremely helpful i - The property was very clean and well serviced .
- Sharon (9/5): Beautiful room with balcony. - Maria Teresa is delightful! She and her daughter assisted us throughout our stay. She is very knowledgeable. We received breakfast each morning on our balcony. A beautiful experience. The room is clean, modern, comfortable. We enjoyed wine on our balcony each night. Excellent location. Market close by. Not difficult to get to port. It is not easy to locate the entrance on street level. The door is locked so you must let the management know you have arrived. I called and left a message. It took a while, but someone came down to let us in. We had numerous problems with internet. Router was reset many times. We were having difficulty receiving emails from our drivers.
- Craig (10/5): Exceptional -
- Benjamin (10/5): - Maria was very welcoming and was so helpful in organising my transfers and booking my boat tours.
They made us feel very welcome and looked after us.
The room was amazing and it was easy to get around the town. I would definately stay there again when i visit sorrento next time.
- Katherine (10/5): Wonderful property with a lovely host - Maria Teresa was the most wonderful host and we
really enjoyed our stay here. The breakfast was lovely,
which we had on the balcony each day, the property is
in an excellent location, super clean, and Maria Teresa
went above and beyond to make sure we had everything
we wanted and needed. Thank you! Nothing we didn’t like. I know some people mentioned
the noise outside, it was quieter than my London flat
and I don’t live on a main road so no issues there.
- Maire (9/5): Perfect stay a few minutes walk away from the centre of Sorrento - Modern, clean room, friendly staff who do an excellent job serving breakfast and cleaning.
- Natalie (10/5): Our stay was amazing and we would stay there again - Maria Teresa the host was absolutely amazing! She booked our transfers and trips. She was easily reachable via WhatsApp to answer any queries we had and got back to us so quickly.
The room was really clean and comfortable. The location is ideal and Saman who worked there was lovely to deal with too. Breakfast was continental each morning and was lovely to get it served on your balcony.
- Jen-Hung (10/5): - I like the service of this property. Maria speaks fluent English. She provides detailed information regarding available excursions and where to have good foods. It was very windy during my stay. Maria volunteered to call the local ferry companies to check the availability of their service every day for me. With her help, I was able to finalize my travel plan.
- Nicola (10/5): - From the moment we booked, Maria Teresa was in touch making sure everything was perfect for our stay! Great location, close to the station. Lovely room and delicious breakfast delivered to the door… Take advantage of the Amalfi Coast Tour too - fantastic & great value!
- Pietro (10/5): - Just simply fantastic, Maria, the owner, was like our private concierge, she made sure that everything was perfect, simply could not ask for anything better! Loved everything and highly recommend it. Thank you so much for a fabulous stay.
