Loved this cute little beach side hotel. Room was recently updated and very clean. Bathroom looked brand new. The mattress was very comfortable compared to others we had been on in our trip. AC worked wonderful and then included breakfast was delicious especially the pastries. Perfect for our last night in Italy. Would highly recommend.

The location of property is amazing, easy parking options but it is not free. Hot options in breakfast options limited, good bakery selection in breakfast. Rooms are good and have a great view. It has amazing restaurants near by.
No option of coffee or tea in the room you have to order from the restaurant.

The stay couldn't be better, it was an amazing team, during the whole experience, many kindly staffs so receptive and friendly.
We got our check-in facilitated, as they did it earlier, breakfast it was very good! Also we've did our check-out one day before, as we left early in the morning and the receptionist offered to us a breakfast for take away on the previous day, as the breakfast time it would be open just after we leave.
The view of the room it was super! Very clean.
Just the connection and the prices around the region are the drawback, but the view worth every penny!

We enjoyed our stay at Alfonso a Mare mainly due to the location.
We wanted to experience the Almalfi Coast but wanted to avoid the crowded area of Positano. A friend suggested Praiano and after looking into accomodation options, we decided on this hotel due to the location. The hotel is located in the small cove beach of Praiano. The majority of accomodation in Praiano is located up high on the cliff, meaning any time you wish to go to the beach, it’s a mission. We knew we would spend majority of time at the beach and we also had a boat tour booked on one of the days that was departing from that beach which is ultimately why we booked this hotel. The area also has a few restaurants. We absolutely loved the restaurant il Pirata being within walking distance as we went there twice.
Our room had amazing views of the ocean from our balcony and the beach area and the room itself was spacious and clean. We could lock our individual room, however we found it odd that anyone from the beach area could walk upstairs all the way up to our door if they wished.
We didn’t find the staff very friendly or helpful, with the exception of one staff member.
If you wish to use the beach, you can use the public access area, however the rest of the beach is taken up by the hotels lounges (which hotel guests have to pay for).
Overall we really enjoyed the area so would recommend the hotel (only with the sea view rooms).

The The room was very nice and the area around the hotel exceptional. The staff was helpful and the ability to park on site for a fee was very welcome. The restaurant breakfast was adequate but nothing great. The dinner options were good but very eclectic. The pricing was a little high and I don't know if the menu would meet everyone's expectations.

This property is right on the beach and has easy access to a small port to take water taxis and boat excursions around the Amalfi area. There are a couple of good restaurants very close and a couple more within a short walk. The complimentary breakfast was a very nice spread with many options. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Breakfast was HORRIBLE! Fruit Flies everywhere.!!!!! Server (Male) Terrible attitude if you asked for Coffee.
Everything seemed to be an inconvenience.
Chef walks around like he's a Master Chef with No one in the restaurant.
NOT WORTH $400 plus a nite.
Would NOT go back!

Read the bad reviews of this place. Everything is true. HORRIBLE and RUDE staff, literally some of the worst I’ve ever experienced. Don’t be fooled by the location. The accommodations suck, the people who work there are miserable, everything is extremely overpriced and they will nickel and dime you every chance they get. Avoid at all costs. You’ve been warned.

My stay was wonderful. The property was great and staff were very friendly.
The only draw back for me, was when I booked a shuttle service through the hotel for my next destination I was quoted 130 Euro. When I arrive at my destination the driver insisted that it is in fact 180 Euro. I was really disappointed to have ended my trip that way.
