Calling the fishing village of Conca dei Marini home (just west of Amalfi and east of Positano to those of us not lucky enough to be locals), a sense of rich heritage ornaments every aspect of a stay here. Most notably, mealtimes are a celebration of all things authentic Italian cuisine; sweet shell-shaped pastries – or Sfogliatella – are still prepared according to the original recipe penned by the sisters that once walked these halls, and the traditional Italian dishes served in the bar are all too easy to come by.
The finest of them all, however, is served in the hotel’s signature restaurant. Chef Alfonso Crescenzo sits at the helm of Michelin-starred Ristorante Il Refettorio, curating a Mediterranean gastronomic experience best enjoyed alfresco.

Set back – or should we say up – away from the many that flock to the charm of the Amalfi coast, this romantic seaside getaway is as postcard-perfect as could be. Beautiful gardens cascade over four levels, landscaped with leisurely strolls in mind.
The rose path is a particularly picturesque choice, and for the more adventurous, ‘The Path of the Gods’ hiking trail lies close by. Though wherever you are, the views here seem almost endless. At sunset, be sure to be out on the terrace to see the best of them all.
Being away from the crowds is woven into the fabric of this boutique hotel. Beginning as a cloister monastery in 1681, its location was likely handpicked for exclusivity; a community high above the coastline apt for worshippers with heads turned to the skies. Not to be mistaken as a destination for solitude, now couples are the most common guests, visiting this storied spot for quality time and tranquillity, its historic charm lingering in playful touches – the original confession box still stands, with guests encouraged to complete a confession form (read: review) at the end of their stay.
Private and peaceful becomes all the more meaningful with an over-16s only policy. And with no little ones around to entertain, four floors can be rather lavishly dedicated to the sprawling spa facilities. Featuring vaulted ceilings and stone walls that hint of rich heritage, the sauna, steam room and heated pool bring the soothing warmth of the Mediterranean sun indoors, while the outdoor treatment areas, gym and infinity pool aligned with the cliffside sit smugly in such exquisite scenery.
A country famed for delectable dining must be the place to try your hand at the culinary arts. Out in the fresh air, find a cooking station waiting within a citrus grove, where a professional chef stands on hand to guide guests through a session on authentic Amalfi Coast cuisine. Learn how best to enhance the flavours of the Campania region, before sitting down to share a meal made together.
A long favoured haunt of royalty and the glitterati alike, while its globally renowned owners would never play favourites, this clifftop beauty seems to hold a special place in their hearts.
This beautiful Moorish fantasy, pegged high on the cliffs in the medieval hilltop village of Ravello, is the height of sophistication in more ways than one.
Art plays a leading role in this magnificent hotel, located in the centre of Anacapri – regarded as the most exclusive and unspoilt part of the island.
