    We found it a little difficult with my elderly mum as our room was at the bottom of the hillside, however it was fine for the rest of us!

    We had a lovely sea view room, which we all loved! The rooms are a little dated, but it was very clean and comfortable, as were all the facilities available.

    The site was quite hilly, but that is no fault of anyone, of course. It is quite difficult to park if you are taking a car, and parking generally on the Amalfi Coast is very limited. I would advise not taking a car and using public transport wherever possible. The buses run every hour from Baia Serena into town, so it is quite convenient. The trains to Sorrento are also very frequent

    The views from the property were excellent, and the pool are was very nice. The accommodation is basic, but perfectly adequate. The staff were friendly and very approachable as well.

    It's very high up from the main town, there's a bus stop outside, however last bus is at 21:30 and be careful as the taxis try and rip you off.

    Loved the pool and the beautiful views. The owners were lovely and helpful. The Air con was a god send.

    Only problem was the bed bug bites. Dont forget to bring skin cream like hydrocortisone. Because the place where we stayed was surrounded by trees. Overall was great , very good experience. Highly recommended.

    What I like most was the location , the view from the pool was marvelous. Overlooking the gulf of Naples.

    if you dont have the car it may be a challenge as your entire schedule will be planned based on timings of only one bus which runs every 1.5-2 hrs. you will easily lose 3 hrs of vacation time everyday. our chalet was located so much down in the property that everyday while coming to the main road to catch bus it felt like a challenge. It is quite steep walk. The nearest grocery store is 500-600m away but on a steep path which is quite tiring. The washroom wasnt in perfect condition If you are in habit of walking everyday then maybe you will manage but otherwise it is tiring.

    the view from the chalet is amazing and totally worth it The manager guiseppe who is quite nice and helped us with our queries Kitchen was Ok and wifi worked fine except one night when it just stopped working.

    The bungalow although spotlessly clean were old and worn. It didn't ruin our stay though.

    Views were excellent, a quiet and friendly site with a few restaurants within walking distance. Transport ran regularly and a good base for Vesuvius, Pompeii, Herculaneum and Sorrento.

    You need a car to fully enjoy remote location, mid may swimming pool and bar closed, you need very good weather as there was no space to sit down with friends inside of the little house but outside was just ok.

    Beautiful sea view, house facilities were adequate to the price paid. Host was very polite and helpful.

    The chalets are becoming a bit older and some maintenance will be needed, our chalet did not exactly match the description and pics on Booking, narrow steep road down not so ideal for longer cars, better park those up hill.

    The stunning sea view, the nice pool area and other places to sit and relax. A restaurant and small shop on the location and last but not least, great hosts.

    Too far from the city center. However, the bus pick up was across the street. Needs updating.

    The long walk uphill to get to the entrance of hotel was very challenging at times - also the dangerous road the resort was on With many bends and low visibility made it treacherous to cross the road.

    They did not make it clear that there was no restaurant facilities until I was checking in-they were due to start in mid June despite the resort being fully booked

    The accommodation was very basic so if you want a little inside space this is not for you. We were 3 adults and found it very tight. The property also is build on the side of the mountain fantastic for the view's but a lot of steep slopes so not great for older people or if you have young children in prams. We didn't realise when booking the season hasn't started so we didn't have the opportunity to taste the food on site also no supermarket near site for your basics this could be a problem if you don't drive.

    The owner & his wife were exceptional 👏 couldn't do enough for us. Gave us great information about getting around and where to see. Always on hand if you need anything helped us book our transport from airport & back again . Definitely the best host I have ever dealt with . Also having the use of a pool was a plus . We did love the views from our bungalow and it was spotless clean. And again you will not find such nice host .

    The drive from the main road was short but steep and narrow with hairpin turns. Suitable for a small car and drivers who can cope with this kind of road. The accommodation was a tight squeeze too.

    This is a really fabulous location, the views of Sorrento and Naples exceptional. The most scenic swimming pool ever . The owner Giuseppe was very helpful would give advice and book anything you wanted for you tours, scooters etc. Buses from the road into Sorrento etc. There was ample parking for the not faint hearted drivers! It was a lovely place to stay perched on the cliff and the owners made the best use of the site.
