01 · In a sentence

Grand Hotel Royal in Sorrento, open MayAugust.

Grand Hotel Royal sits on the Sorrentine Peninsula with direct Tyrrhenian Sea views that most Sorrento venues access only by photo.

The 4-star property operates its own private beach club, eliminating the typical hotel-wedding disconnect between ceremony spaces and water access.

With 60 rooms on-site, guests can move between welcome dinner, overnight stay, and morning-after brunch without leaving the property.

By far the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in- 10/10. The staff was incredible, the location was absolutely beautiful and worth every $. They have 3 outdoor levels including the bottom level that goes out into a dock right on the water. They have a private beach club down there with full service of food and drinks. They provide floaties, pool noodles and snorkelling equipment for the water. Even the sun tanning chairs have a contraption that has an umbrella attached so you can move it around as needed. We cannot wait to return!
