Next level accomodation !! What an amazing experience ! The villa is up on the hill, 10 minutes by shuttle to Sorrento center, with stunning views of the bay of Naples/vesuvius etc. Everything about the hotel is first class. The best part of the experience was the fantastic staff--the front desk, breakfast/dinner waiters, the chef and the shuttle drivers-- all were so warm, helpful and engaging! We loved the morning breakfasts( all made to order). We ended up eating all 3 dinners at the villa--the food was amazing; freshly cooked by the onsite chef and eaten in a gorgoeous private glass gazebo area. This is one of the nicest places we have ever stayed-- a true hidden gem!! Yes, it is just outside downtown sorrento (we really loved the tranquility), however the shuttle makes it easy to get into town. We actually walked into Sorrento 2 days -- 30 minutes down a beautiful back road providing stunning views of Sorrento on the way down! Thank you to all the staff at the Villa for making our stay so memorable !! Highest recommendation !
