The stunning Amalfi Coast is a dream, sun-kissed honeymoon destination just 2 1/2 half hours flight-time from the UK. For a brief, yet highly seductive getaway the breath-taking coastlines of this magical corner of southern Italy is renowned for its picturesque towns perched on cliffs, spectacular coastal scenery views, picture-perfect white washed villages, countless sandy beaches leading to hidden caves and a shimmering blue Mediterranean Sea. Some of the world’s most romantic hotels lie along the mainland as well as on the chic island of Capri. Here are two of our most dazzling cliffhangers!
Caruso, A Belmond Hotel
The hotel’s setting is undeniably magnificent, set in immaculate terraced gardens 1,000 feet above the coast, with spectacular sweeping views and one of the most scenic infinity pools imaginable. While the charming palazzo dates back to the 11th century, the rest of the hotel pays homage to grand Italian styling, with vaulted ceilings, marble hallways, frescoes and antique furnishings. Nearly all of the rooms and suites boast stunning sea views, while the exclusive Villa Margherita, located in the grounds, takes decadence a little further with two suites, a private garden, butler service and a dedicated chef.
Indulge in the vibrant flavours of southern Italy, choosing from menus showcasing fresh, local produce, served with great creativity and flair. Enjoy traditional specialities and innovative dishes at Ristorante Belvedere, either in the elegant dining room or outside on the picturesque terrace. Or for something truly special, opt to dine at the Chef’s Table – a seven-course affair, perfectly paired with the best Krug Champagne.
Discover botanical bliss in the hotel’s luxurious spa, whose signature treatments use only the best natural and organic products. Work up a sweat through the historic streets of Ravello with an expert personal trainer, or cool off with a refreshing dip in the inviting infinity pool. A variety of action-packed excursions and culinary adventures can also be arranged, including historic tours, coastal hikes, and visits to local lemon groves, farms and vineyards.
Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel
Anantara breathes new life into one of the Amalfi Coast’s most iconic landmarks, a 13th-century Capuchin convent built into the cliffside. The Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel, a five-star hotel in the Amalfi mountains is a fine example of a sympathetically refurbished monument. Just a few minutes from the Piazza del Duomo, and overlooking the harbour, the location is unrivalled and the setting spectacular.
Completely renovated in 2023, almost all of our 52 suites and rooms look directly out to sea. They’re decorated with bright, neutral tones and chic contemporary furniture. They’ve all got air conditioning and free Wi-Fi.
Enjoy the ultimate experience by staying at a luxury hotel in Amalfi. Spend sunny days exploring the coast, then return to exquisite Italian cuisine by Chef Claudio Lanuto, poolside basking kissed by sea breezes, and Anantara Spa relaxation. It is the ideal place where to go for luxury holidays on the Amalfi Coast.
