What to do whilst staying at our properties in Sorrento & Amalfi Coast
Amalfi Coast
Discover one of the world's most breathtaking, scenic coastlines. The Amalfi Coast's landscape is unparalleled in the world. The blue of the sea, the green of the Mediterranean vegetation, the colours and shapes of the small houses merge seamlessly to create one of the most beautiful stretches of Italian coastline. What visit to Sorrento would be complete without experiencing a trip to the Amalfi drive? You' ll find some of the finest scenery in Europe, as you journey through the pretty fishing villages and towns that line this rugged coastline. The Amalfi Coast has been attracting visitors for centuries. Only by experiencing it yourself, can you truly appreciate the magic and beauty of this inspiring and dramatic coastline. The attractive village of Amalfi is a former seafaring republic and the historic soul of the coast, with its famed 9th century cathedral, whose striking majestic, colourful facade is lit up by enamels and mosaics. Amalfi is a truly charming town and is fascinating to explore; how about taking a gentle stroll along the cobbled streets to sample delicious home-grown red chilies? Enjoy the journey along the roads to Ravello, where you can stroll through the charming lanes to the glorious garden of Villa Cimbrone. We advise taking to the water to admire the jaw-dropping coastline from a different perspective, as you visit the picturesque resort of Positano.

Sorrento Coast
Contrast the hustle and bustle of chaotic cities with the laid back charms of Sorrento. Sample fresh limoncello in Sorrento's lemon groves and bustling medieval cities and rustic hill-top villages, mellow white wines and delicious regional cuisine, ancient traditions and fascinating history. This is the Italy you have been searching for.
Why not take a short boat jouney across the Bay of Naples to enchanting Isle of Capri ? You can step into a whole new world, as you land on this island, which is famous as playground for the rich and famous.
Anyone should be able to tell the story of the tragic cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, shrouded in ash when Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, but nothing can quite prepare you for the scale of the city when you visit in person.

- Accommodation options range in price along the coast, from apartment rentals to luxury hotels, and all prices go up in summer.
