Explore the Dramatic Coastline

While the Amalfi Coast is known for its coastline, it’s not the sandy beaches that beckon, but rather the mesmerising craggy cliffs that cascade down to the cerulean sea. Enticing travellers to traipse its rocky form in search of incredible views.

Down on the shore, your luxury holiday to the Amalfi Coast wouldn't be complete without days spent exploring the coves that dot the coastline and staying at one of the resorts that decorate the cliff edge.

For an exclusive retreat, visit Marina di Conca, a hidden gem with a serene ambience and traditional fishing village charm. Sunseekers will adore afternoons spent at Spiaggia Grande in Positano, renowned for its vibrant beach bars, fantastic restaurants and iconic views across the Mediterranean.

For those seeking a chance to admire Amalfi's beauty from the azure waters of the Mediterranean, board a private boat and set sail for the glamourous island of Capri. Explore secluded coves and hidden beaches and soak up the staggering beauty that surrounds you.

Where to stay on the Amalfi Coast?

Nestled on the glittering Amalfi coastline lies the iconic Belmond Hotel Caruso in Ravello, offering a luxurious retreat with panoramic views and timeless elegance.

For a chic yet contemporary escape, Le Sirenuse in Positano blends refined luxury with breathtaking sea vistas. It's the ideal choice for those looking for Amalfi Coast hotels where they can relax away from the hustle and bustle, with an on-site Michelin-starred restaurant for unforgettable fine dining experiences by candlelight.

The historic Palazzo Avino promises opulent serenity, perched high above the beautiful coastline. This Amalfi hotel boasts a private beach, immaculate interiors and five-star facilities. It's also perfectly located for trips to nearby Ravello, Capri and Pompeii.

Alternatively, if you're seeking traditional Southern Italian charm for a romantic escape, Amalfi's Hotel Palazzo Murat is a stunning sanctuary surrounded by an oasis of gardens and pools, with a romantic courtyard where you can sample the finest local cuisine featuring produce grown within the hotel grounds.
Is 7 days in Amalfi too much?

7 days on the Amalfi Coast is the perfect amount of time.

There’s plenty to see and do, especially as you travel along the coast exploring the charming villages and picturesque cliffside. Enjoy food tours and cooking classes, visit family-run vineyards, and hike the outdoors or sail the sea.

The Amalfi Coast is also a treasure trove of UNESCO world heritage sites, such as Pompeii and Herculaneum, offering plenty of activities to entice all travellers.
Is it better to stay on Amalfi Coast or Sorrento?

While Sorrento is a stunning destination on the Bay of Naples, we recommend staying on the Amalfi Coast instead. Known for its famous areas of stay, such as Positano and Ravello, it also boasts an incredible collection of high-end accommodations.

Sorrento is known for its convenient transport links, but on the Amalfi Coast, you still get that rustic traditional style that makes you feel like you’re stepping back in time and truly experiencing Italy.
