4 stars Hotels in Sorrento Coast

Our first impression of this place was walking through the garden in the dark. We heard waves crashing and church bells ringing. We noticed the lights of Napoli far off across the bay. Next morning we stepped outside and gasped at the view...spectacular vista of the sea over a cliff in a garden of orange trees and ancient olives. The room was basic with rustic charm. We used the kitchen and enjoyed shopping at local markets to buy fresh fish, sausage, fruits and vegetables. The lady who checked us in encouraged us to cook pasta, so we did. They had a beautiful pool, at least Olympic size. Situated in Piano di Sorrento, we were away from the tourist areas, yet just a train/bus ride from all the attractions. We were a 10 min walk from the Circumvesuviana train which goes from Napoli to Sorrento and all around Vesuvius. We bought a train/bus pass and used it the first day to visit Pompeii...off to a great start! Next we took the bus to Amalfi. It was one of those cliff hanger bus rides on a narrow road hugging the edge above sea. Spectacular! We came back again and again. We rode the bus all the way to Salerno. We saw Capri. We took the sightseeing bus up the mountain from Amalfi. We walked back down on the ancient path with at least 2,000 stone steps. When it was time to leave, we both shed tears. Yes we'd stay there again.

My 2nd visit here and will not be my last. My room was the best and could not wish for better. Staff so amazing. Pool was beautiful. The hotel is so clean and the staff take a lot of pride in work and it shows. Nothing negative to report. I had amazing time, can not wait for next time.

FROM THE MOMENT WE ARRIVED WE KNEW THAT THE HOTEL WAS FINE

The director and staff of the Hotel were extremely freindly, polite and helpful. The Hotel itself is very clean with wonderful view and a very beautiful pool and breakfast room. It is approximately 5 kilometers out of Sorrento, but the hotel provides shuttle service to and from Sorrento in certain times of the day. If you do not fit in the schedule, then you have to pay for either taxi or find the local bus. The hotel is located in S. Agata which is the most active village in Massa Lubrense with many trails which provides a good stay for the hikers. Rooms are clean and being cleaned everyday, but like anywhere else in Italy-as far as my experience goes-is not very quiet. Life never stops in Italy, so you may hear a loud talk or door slam from your neighbors in the middle of the night. Bus line goes from right in front of the hotel to Amalfi Coast towns, but you have to buy tickets ahead of time.

We were situated at the bottom chalets, lots of steps to climb. This was compensated by the view glorious, the pool facilities which we all loved with slides and 3 pools, great air conditioning, large chalet with one double bedroom, then 4singles in room with closed off kitchen area and separate bathroom with a shower, large terrace with table and chairs overlooking the sea so you could see the boats coming in to the beach area. Meta is on a steep hill there is access to the beach area and restaurants in the surrounding area Piano De Sorrento about 1/2 hour walk ( best for shopping). Supermarkets close by. Watch out for mosquito's take repellent.

Very beautiful hotel and location. Hotel staff exceptionally helpful and welcoming. Would recommend unreservedly.

The hotel is perfect for folks who want the beach more than anything else. It does have a private beach just down the steps from the hotel's deck. The beach is well taken care of - on the last day we saw a small bulldozer leveling the pebbles. That's right - pebbles. You won't find good sand anywhere in Sorrento. The hotel is way off the main drag, but it has a free-during-the-day, 1 euro at night shuttle that goes back and forth every hour and takes you right to downtown Sorrento. Note that there's a no-shuttle window between 6:30 and 10 pm to get back to the hotel. The shuttle was always on time, sometimes early, and it makes you appreciate and admire Italian driving. :) The shuttle rides takes ~15 minutes. Do contact the hotel prior to your arrival if you are arriving by train and arrange for the shuttle pickup. Most of the guests in the hotel were older folks - in fact, other than me and my wife and another young married couple, everybody else was in the 50s-60s-... You won't find any nightlife activities at the hotel or in the surrounding area. They had live music every night - typical Italian repertoire. So if action is what you are after, stay in Sorrento (this hotel is technically speaking is located in Meta). Not that there's much action at night anyway - we saw ads for a couple of clubs, but didn't get a sense that there was much to do after the dinner. So, to summarize, if you want the beach in Sorrento, this hotel is a great choice.

LIKED THE LARGE ROOMS WITH WATER VIEWS ON HIGHER FLOORS AND WONDERFUL BREAKFAST! SHORT WALK TO CENTER OF SORRENTO WITH LOVELY SHOPS AND WONDERFUL RESTAURANTS.

it was a bit far to reach especially on the hard to drive paths of the amalfitan coast but when we reached the place : WOW!!! what a nice location, the hotel is the center of this small piece of paradise, the view on the sea from the balcony with the small boats, the hudge rocks. very quiet place. people very friendly and helpful _ Hi Alessandro. you can also arrange to go to Capri right from in front of the hotel which is soooo conveniant, instead of going to sorrento. i recommand strongly

Loved out trip couldnt have been more pefect. Great location highly recommended
