10/10 Exceptional

Our room was clean and lovely, The bed was comfortable. We had a beautiful view of the ocean from our balcony. The breakfast was excellent. A lot of nice drink choices. Good cappuccino. The front desk was very helpful. We loved the private beach area where you can get a drink and snack.. Bring water shoes if you have room in your luggage. The beach is rocky.

Verified review

8/10 Very good

The hotel is very pretty and well-situated on the coast, near Cetara, built into the cliffs with its own private beach. Because the hotel is between towns, the reception staff were incredibly helpful booking taxis and helping with transportation for activities in nearby Vietri sul Mare and Salerno. The private beach is very picturesque. The only drawback was the dining situation. While we had breakfast included (which was delicious), all other meals, including lunch, needed to be reserved in advance, which became annoying. Sandwiches were always available at the bar, but we didn’t come to Italy to just eat sandwiches. If you didn’t have a reservation, and the restaurants were booked (which happened twice to us), you’d have to go into Cetara for food.

8/10 Very good

It was a beautiful hotel with very nice amenities. We were a bit surprised it is in between 2 small towns at the top of a sheer cliff with little parking. Loved the beach and our room opened up to the sea. Stunning views.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay was absolutely perfect. Our room was very comfortable. Walking to Cetera and back to the hotel requires walking alongside the busy road, just so you know ahead of time that there is no pathway. However, the hotel, amenities, and beach I would recommend to anyone!

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel was 10/10, very well maintained, spacious room for three, but the best part was how helpful Elena and Carmela at the front desk were. Elena coordinated transfers before our arrival, during our stay and the day of our departure. She coordinated the most amazing cooking class in Amalfi, again 10/10. Of note, Cetera is a fishing village so most pasta dishes are prepared with fish. You need to take the ferry to other surrounding areas, Amalfi, Capri etc. meals at the hotel were amazing!! Again, the staff made our experience memorable! Views are beautiful!!

10/10 Exceptional

Wow - What a beautiful hotel, bar and dining experience! The town of Cetus is one of the quietest towns along the Amalfi coast and was a perfect jumping of spot for exploring the other towns (accessed by a short walk into town and hopping a ferry, or grabbing a bus (although the SITA buses were horribly unreliable while we were there)), and coming back to have cocktails or dinner above the ocean. The beach is accessible by elevator, and was gorgeous. There are so many good things to say about this place that I could not do it justice in this review.
