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!

We stayed here for a wedding and really enjoyed it. The views were incredible, with the ocean and grounds making it feel extra special. There are plenty of great spots around the property to sit, relax, have a drink, and enjoy the surroundings. The location is convenient for getting into the center of town, our room was spacious and comfortable, and we especially enjoyed the daily breakfast. We only wish we had more time to spend exploring the property.

My wife and I were married in Sorrento and we had our reception at the Grand Hotel Royal. It was the most amazing reception ever. The views are out of this world, the staff were extremely accommodating and the food was tremendous! I'll remember that night for the rest of my life!
