TABLE OF CONTENTS
WHY VISIT THE AMALFI COAST?
The Amalfi Coast is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stretches over 50-kilometers along the coastline in the Sorrentine Peninsula. With its colorfule cliffside villages, Mediterranean views, and irresistible cuisine, it’s no wonder the Amalfi Coast is one of Europe’s dreamiest destinations.
It doesn’t matter what you’re looking for. This region offers a perfect balance of relaxation, culture and adventure. One day you can find yourself relaxing on a sunny beach, and the next day exploring some ancient ruins or hiking up to a volcano.
GETTING TO THE AMALFI COAST
The closest major airport is Naples International (NAP). From there, you can take a train, bus, or private transfer to Sorrento or Salerno, gateways to the Amalfi Coast.
In our case, we started our Amalfi Coast Itinerary at Salerno and finished in Naples, since we had spent the previous week visiting the Puglia Region.

How to get from naples to salerno?
Getting from Naples to Salerno is super easy, and you’ve got a few great options depending on your travel budget and schedule.
🚆 By Train
The most popular (and budget-friendly) choice is the train. You can hop on a regional or high-speed train from Napoli Centrale to Salerno, and the ride takes anywhere from 40 minutes to just over an hour. Trains run frequently throughout the day, and tickets are easy to book online or right at the station. Just grab a seat, sit back, and enjoy the views as you zip along the coast.
⛴ By Ferry
Looking for a more scenic and slow-paced way of traveling? In the warmer months, there are also ferry options that connect Naples to Salerno. It takes a bit longer, but cruising along the coasstline is a vibe.
🚗 By Car
If you’re more into road trips, you can also rent a car and drive there yourself. The drive takes approximately an hour via the A3 highway but you should expect to find tolls along the way and some traffic as you exit Naples.
Personally, I don’t recommend this option. The drive to Salerno is not so bad but driving through the Amalfi Coast is a bit of a nightmare. Roads are very narrow, and there are constant buses driving there, which means you are going to struggle fitting on the road at some times. In addition, once you are at the different towns, finding a parking spot can be really hard.
With that said, driving your car does give you an extra freedom for moving around. If you want to have this, then I recommend you book your car (a small one) via RentalCars.
How to get from naples to sORRENTO?
The easiest, and most convenient way to get to Sorrento from Naples is by train. Just head to Napoli Garibaldi station (it’s located just beneath Napoli Centrale), and look for the Circumvesuviana Train Line towards Sorrento. The train ride will take you approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes and tickets are under 5 euros and very easy to buy at the station.
Good to know: This is a local train, so it can get quite crowded at the rush hours. In addition, there is no air conditioning on this train.
BEST TIME TO VISIT THE AMALFI COAST
The absolute best time to visit is during the shoulder seasons: late April to early June and September to mid-October. During these months, the weather is wonderfully warm but not scorching, the Mediterranean sparkles, and the crowds are far more manageable than in the peak summer months.
Summer (July and August) can still be beautiful, but it’s also the most crowded and expensive time to visit. The narrow coastal roads can get congested, and popular spots like Positano and Ravello fill up fast. If you’re set on a summer getaway, just be sure to book early and prepare for the hustle.
AMALFI COAST 7 DAY ITINERARY - A ONE WEEK TRAVEL GUIDE
Let’s begin with a quick look on how your week will look.
This itinerary is everything I did at the Amalfi Coast but of course, there are plenty of other things to do. At the end of this blog, I will share with you some extra spots that you can visit, in case you want to adapt your itinerary.
DAY 1 - GET TO SALERNO & EXPLORE SALERNO
It’s time to start our Amalfi adventure! Get ready to enjoy the amazing Italian summer while sipping an aperol!
STOP 1: GET TO SALERNO AND DROP YOUR SUITCASES AT THE ACCOMMODATION
The first thing you’ll have to do is get to Salerno. Most probably, you’ll fly into Naples and then, you’ll have to find a transportation method to Salerno. I have explained at the beginning of this blog, the different possibilities.
Once you’re in Salerno, you’ll have to get to your accommodation and check-in so that you can drop your luggage, freshen-up and start enjoying your vacation.
STOP 2: SUNSET AT SALERNO PORT
After checking in, we headed to Salerno port in order to secure our tickets for Amalfi the next morning. We wanted to get an early ferry so we decided to buy the tickets in advance to avoid any bad surprises the following day.
By the time we got there, it was already the evening (we had spent most of the day traveling) so we got see a beautiful sunset in the port.
STOP 3: LUNGOMARE DI SALERNO
From the port, we enjoyed a nice and relaxing walk along the Salerno waterfront (Lungomare di Salerno). The area was quite lively with people resting, enjoying a delicious ice cream, and live music.
STOP 4: DUOMO DI SALERNO
Located in the heart of Salerno, the Duomo di Salerno is a hidden gem. Officially known as the Cathedral of Saint Matthew, this 11th-century masterpiece blends Norman, Romanesque, and Baroque styles. The bronze doors, shipped from Constantinople, are so intricate and stunning, and the peaceful cloister with its palm tress and Arabic arches offers a quite escape from the city’s noise.
Practical information
- Price. It is completely free to visit this cathedral.
- Opening hours. The cathedral is open daily between 9:30 and 18:30.
STOP 5: MEDIEVAL AQUEDUCT & dINNER
On our way to dinner, we stumbled accross the Medieval Aqueduct ruins in Salerno, which is affectionally called as the “Devil’s Bridge” by locals. According to the legend, it was built overnight with the help of supernatural forces. Hence, its nickname. In reality, it was built in the 9th century by Benedictine monks, and was used to carry water from the hills to the monasteries and city below.
We finished our first day in the Amalfi Coast by having dinner at Burger Cargo Bar. Yes, this is not italian cuisine, but the burgers were delicious!
DAY 2 - AMALFI & FIORDO DI FURORE
Rise and shine! It’s time to start exploring the beautiful Amalfi Coast.
STOP 1: FERRY TO AMALFI
We checked out early from the hotel and headed to Salerno Touristic Port to hop on a ferry to Amalfi. The ride takes 1 hour and 10 minutes but time just flies while you admire the coast.
STOP 2: EXPLORE AMALFI
Once in Amalfi, it was too early to check-in at our next hotel so we just dropped our suitcases and headed out to explore the town. We first explored the upper part of the town which is less touristy but still really cute. We also had a mid morning snack with a cornetto (croissant) and a capuccino.
STOP 3: AMALFI cathedral
If you only have time to visit one spot in Amalfi, it definitely has to be the Amalfi Cathedral (or Duomo di Amalfi). This stunning 9th-century cathedral has a vibrant mix of architectural styles, blending Romanesque with Arab-Norman flaire and a splash of Baroque. The striped Byzantine façade, with its mosaics and pointed arches, is just stunning. The cathedral is dedicated to Saint Andrew, whose relics are kept in the crypt below.
Step inside and you’re in for a real treat. The interior is a fest for the eyes, with soaring ceilings, golden altars, and beautifully tiled floors.The peaceful cloister, known as the Cloister of Paradise, is another highlight. A serene courtyard lined with white marble columns and palm trees.
Practical information
- Price. Tickets to visit the cathedral cost 5 euros per person and can be easily bought at the entrance.
- Opening hours. The cathedral is open daily between 9:00 and 18:30.
STOP 4: AMALFI WATERFRONT
After lunch, it is time to walk next to the waterfront to admire the views of Amalfi. Stroll along the promenade while you admire the pastel-colored buildings that are ont he mountainside, all clustered around the striking Duomo. It’s the kind of view that makes you pause, take a deep breath, and just soak it all in.
STOP 5: FIORDO DE FURORE
By this time, it is probably quite warm, so you can head to your hotel to relax and cool down during the central hours of the day.
In the evening, we hopped on a bus to visit the beautiful Fiordo di Furore. It’s a tiny, hidden fjord with steep rock walls, a narrow strip of beach, and a charming stone bridge arching high above the turquoise water. This little cove feels like a secret, even if it is just off the main road. Once a small fishing village, the fjord still has a few colorful old boathouses clinging to the rock, giving the place its charm. It’s peaceful, rugged, and wildly romantic.
If you’re up for a bit of adventure, the steps down to the beach are steep but totally worth the effort. The water is crystal-clear, perfect for a refreshing swim surrounded by towering cliffs.
Practical information.
- How to get there? You can easily reach Fiordo di Furore by bus. Just hop on the SITA bus that goes to Positano and stop at the Fiordo di Furore stop.
DAY 3 - RAVELLO & POSITANO
On the third day, you’ll get an early morning call but it will be worth it, if you want to beat the crowds. Thanks to this, we were capable of walking completely alone in front of the Amalfi Cathedral and were the first ones to enter Villa Cimbrone in Ravello.
STOP 1: AMALFI CATHEDRAL
This was not originally in our itinerary of the day but we had to pass in front of it on our way to the bus station in Amalfi. There was literally no on in front of the Cathedral, so we couldn’t resist to stop and admire it a bit more. Of course, we also took advantage of this situation and took some photos without the crowds that had been there the day before.
STOP 2: BUS TO RAVELLO
Buses to Ravello depart from near Piazza Flavio, which is just in front of the sea promenade. To get to Ravello, you will have to take the bus that is labelled “Amalfi-Scala-Ravello”. Don’t worry, it is super easy to find them. Tickets for the SITA buses, can be bought the tabacco shop just accross the square. The bus ride to Ravello takes approximately 30 minutes but it’s quite scenic as you head uphill to the mountain behind Amalfi.
Ravello is not a typical coastal town in Amalfi, it is perched on top of a hill with breathtaking views and lush villas.
STOP 3: VILLA CIMBRONE
Villa Cimbrone is one of thos places that feels almost too pretty to be real. The walk up to the villa winds through narrow cobbled lanes and quiet gardens, building anticipation until you reach this beautiful villa.
Villa Cimbrone is mostly famous for it’s breathtaking Terrace of Infinity, an iconic viewpoint lined with marble busts, overlooking an endless expanse of sky and sea. You will want to enjoy every minute you are in this terrace.
But Villa Cimbrone isn’t just about the views from its terrace. Its sprawling gardens are a peaceful maze of blooming roses, shaded paths, and tucked-away statues that surprise you around every corner. Every turn feels like a little discovery. You will find quite benches under the trees or moss-covered fountains.
Practical information
- Price. Tickets to visit Villa Cimbrone’s Gardens and the Terrace of Infinity cost 10 euros per person.
- Opening Hours. The gardens are open daily between 9:00 and 20:30. However, since these gardens can be rented for special events, I recommend checking the website in advance to make sure they are open.
STOP 4: VILLA RUFOLO
Villa Rufolo is another beautiful villa located in Ravello. It was built in the 13th century by the Rufolo family, and it has a mix of Moorish, Arab-Sicilian, and Norman architecture. It’s most remarkable feature is the 30 m Torre Maggiore.
Same as with Villa Cimbrone, Villa Rufolo has beautiful terraced gardens full of vibrant blooms, cypresses, orchids, fountains and even a hidden chappel. It is said that Richard Wagner found inspiration here for his opera Parsifal!
Practical information.
- Price. The tickest to visit the gardens cost 8 euros per person.
- Opening hours. The gardens are open daily between 9:00 and 20:00-

STOP 5: FERRY TO POSITANO
Once we were done with exploring Ravello, we took the bus back to Amalfi, and from there, we hopped on a ferry to Positano, the most iconic town in the Amalfi Coast.
The ferry ride takes approximately 30 minutes and it is such a relaxing and beautiful moment. There is no better experience than getting to admire the Amalfi Coast from the sea!
STOP 6: RELAX AT SPIAGGIA GRANDE
The first thing we did in Positano was to relax at Spiagga Grande, Positano’s main beach! This small but super cute beach in Positano is full of colorful umbrellas that contrast with the pastel hillside homes. It does get quite lively but it is part of the charm! We just spent most of the afternoon, chilling and swimming in the water.
Tips for enjoying the beach in Positano
- You will have to pay to use the umbrellas and sun beds. These are usually rented for the whole day, and they are not cheap. However, if you’re planning on treating yourself, I recommend you do this from the morning to make the most of your money.
- There a small free area where you can just place your towel on the beach without having to rent an umbrella and bed.
- Spiaggia Grande is a pebbled beach, so if you have delicate feet, I recommend you bring some water shoes to help you get in and out of the water.
STOP 7: EXPLORE POSITANO AND ITS BOUTIQUES
After a relaxing afternoon on the beach, its time to explore the cute town of Positano and its boutiques. It is full of narrow alleys, hidden courtyards, and vine-covered terraces that reveal postcard-perfect views. Just get yourself lost in these streets and see where you end up.
Make sure to also visit some of Positano’s effortless and stylish boutiques. Here you’ll find everything from breezy linen dresses to bold ceramic pieces and fragant lemon-scented soaps.
STOP 8: DINNER AND SUNSET BY THE BEACH
End your day by having a delicious italian dinner and an apperol spritz next to the beach while you enjoy sunset. Sunset in Positano is pure magic. As the sun dips behind the cliffs, the sky turn shades of peach, lavender and gold, casting a warm glow over the pastel buildings that cling to the hillside. The sea shimmers and there is a peaceful atmosphere in the air. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this beautiful moment in the Amalfi Coast.
DAY 4 - SORRENTO
STOP 1: SUNRISE IN POSITANO
Waking up early during your holidays is not fun, but when you are in Positano it’s a must. Not only will you witness a beautiful sunrise in a postcard perfect place, but you will also enjoy a very different calm and chill vibe in Positano. Most people are not awake yet and the streets are peaceful and quiet.
If sunset was peach and lavender, sunrise in Positano is golden. The sun hits directly on the pastel houses creating a beautiful effect.
STOP 2: FERRY TO SORRENTO
After chilling and enjoying our last moments in Positano, it was time to hop on another ferry to Sorrento. Unfortunately, there is no direct ferry between Positano and Sorrento, so we had to make a quick stop in Capri, but the ferry ride is not too long.
STOP 3: EXPLORE SORRENTO
Sorrento is a cliff-side town located in the Bay of Naples, that blends effortlessly coastal-charm with old-world elegance. The historic center of Sorrento is a lovely maze of cobbled pedestrian lanes, filled with artisan shops, quaint cafés, and restaurants.
This charming town is often overlooked thanks to the fame of its neighbours Positano or Capri but there are many things to do and places to visit here. Here are the must do things while in Sorrento.
- Shop in one of the many artisan shops in the historic center. If you’re looking for a good leather bag, this is the place for you.
- Get stunning views of Mount Vesuvius and Capri from the Villa Comunale park.
- Eat the traditional and deliciuos Gnocchi alla Sorrentina.
- Visit Vallone dei Mulini (Valley of the Mills).
DAY 5 - NAPLES
STOP 1: TRAIN TO NAPLES
On our fifth day of our trip, it was time to leave Sorrento and head to Naples, where we would set base for the 3 remaining days of our trip.
This time, instead of a ferry, we took a train from Sorrento to Napoli Centrale, and let me just say, this was an experience on its own. The train was so busy and there was no air conditioning at all! If you’re planning on taking this train, don’t make the same mistake as we did, and get an earlier train! Not only it will be less busy, it will also be way cooler.
STOP 2: NAPOLI SOTTERRANEA
The first place we visited in Naples was Napoli Sotterranea, the underground city that lies beneath the bustling chaos of Naples. These narrow tunnels were originally carved by the ancient Greeks as a quarry more than 2,000 years ago. They later served as an aqueduct system in the Roman times, and during World War II, they were used as a shelter.
These days, you can visit the tunnels by joining a guided tour, where you will learn its fascinating history and you will also get to see some research areas where plants are being grown urderground.
I really enjoyed this visit and was very surprised by how big these tunnels are. There is a complete urderground city under Naples!
Practical information
- Price. The guided tour of Underground Naples costs 15 euros per person.
- Tour schedules. There is a guided tour in English every hour between 10:00 and 18:00.
- Book your tickets online. It is possible to book your tickets online here.
STOP 3: NAPLES HISTORIC CENTER (CENTRO STORICO)
Once you’re done visiting the underground tunnels, it is time to explore Naples Historic Center. Wander through the maze of narrow alleys where laundry flaps from balconies, creating a very authentic vibe. It is so special that it was listed as UNESCO site. Not to miss are:
- Via San Gregorio Armeno, where you will find many shops selling the famous nativity scenes.
- Spaccanapoli, the most narrow and representative street of old Naples.
STOP 4: DUOMO DI NAPOLI
Within the historic center, you will also find the Duomo di Napoli (also known as the Cathedral of San Gennaro). This cathedral will completely surprised you as it is not in a big square like many cathedrals but tucket in between regular buildings.
From the outside, its a striking mix of Gothic and Baroque styles, and in the inside the altars are covered in gold and you will find the relics of San Gennaro, the city’s beloved patron saint. Three times per year, the locals gather in hopes of witnessing the miracle of the blood, when a vial of his preserved blood is said to liquefy.
Practical information
- Price. It is free to visit the cathedral. If you want to visit the baptistery, you will have to pay 2 euros per person.
- Opening Hours. The cathedral is open daily between 8:00 and 19:30.
STOP 5: CASTEL NOUVO & CASTEL DELL'OVO
Next, we headed closer to the sea to visit the two most famous castles in Naples: Castel Nuovo and Castel dell’Ovo. Castel Nuovo, also called Maschio Angioino, is located right next to the port and has several round turrets and marble arch entrance. Castel dell’Ovo (Egg Castle) is older, and right on the water with breathtaking views of the bay.
STOP 6: GALLERIA UMBERTO I
If you’ve been to Milan, Galleria Umberto I will look quite familiar to you. It was built in the late 19th century, to resemble Milan’s galleries. Just take a stroll beneath its dome and window shop the many boutiques located there.
STOP 7: NAPLES PIZZA
Finish off your day in Naples by eat pizza at its birthplace. You’ve heard it right, pizza was invented in Naples and Naepolitan pizza is honored as a UNESCO Intangeable Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
The most iconic place to get pizza is L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele, where you should try the classic Margheritta.
DAY 6 - CAPRI
STOP 1: FERRY TO CAPRI
On Day 6, we hopped on another ferry to spend the day in the beautiful island of Capri. The ride between Naples and Capri takes approximately 1 hour which is very convenient if you just want to spend a day there. To do the most of our only day in Capri, we decided to get the first ferry of the day. The ferry was not too crowded and most of the people in there where people who were commuting to their job.
STOP 2: CRUISE AROUND THE ISLAND
The first thing we did in Capri was to join a cruise around the island. If there is an activity that you absolutely have to do when visiting Capri, it’s hopping on a bout and cruising around the island. Trust me, you have to see this beautiful island from the water. I booked a small-group tour that left from the Marina Grande and it was just perfect, the sun was shinning, the waters were of a beautiful turquoise, and the rugged coastline was just stunning.
Grotta Azzurra
Half way through the cruise, we arrived at Grotta Azzurra (Blue Grotto), where we transferred into tiny rowboats to slip through the narrow entrance. Inside, the sunlight filtered in just right to make the water glow this surreal electric blue. It is touristy, yes, but it is absolutely worth it.
Faraglioni
The highlight of the cruise was, without a doubt the famous Faraglioni rock formations. These towering rocks rise dramatically from the sea just off the island’s sourthern coast, and seeing them up close is really impressive. As our boat cruised between them, I could not stop taking photos.
There’s a little loca legend that says if you kiss someone as you pass through the arch of the middle rock (called “Stella”), it brings good luck and lasting love. I don’t know if this is true but if you can, make sure to kiss your loved one.
STOP 3: CAPRI TOWN
After our boat tour, we took the Capri Cable Car up to Capri town, which is located high above the marina. It is a maze of narrow, whitewashed streets lined with chic designer boutiques, cozy cafés, and bursts of bougainvillea over the stone walls. The main square, Piazza Umberto I (or just “La Piazzetta” to the locals), is the heart of it all.
We just explored the streets and soaked in the beauty of this place. While here, make sure to eat a delicious ice cream at Buonocuore Gelatteria, where they will make the cookie cone right as you order. There is always a little waiting line but it goes quite fast.
With our ice cream in hand, we followed Via Tragara until we reached Belvedere Tragara, a terrace with stunning views to the Faraglioni.
STOP 4: SPIAGGIA DI MARINA PICCOLA
The rest of our day, we spent it relaxing and swimming at Spiaggia di Marina Piccola, where we got to swim with views to the Faraglioni. It was the perfect way to end our day trip to Capri. Nothing beats the views of the most iconic rock formations in the island.
STOP 5: FERRY BACK TO NAPLES
In the evening, we took the last ferry back to Naples after having spent an amazing day in Capri. This time, the ferry was way more crowded than in the morning but it was completely worth it.
DAY 7 - POMPEII AND VESUVIUS
STOP 1: TRAIN RIDE TO POMPEII
On our last full day in the Amalfi Coast, we decided to do a day trip to Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius. To get there, you have to take the Circumvesuviana Train Line. It is the same train as the one that connects Sorrento and Naples, but this time you have to get off at Pompei Scavi. This train rides every 20 to 30 minutes and it takes 40 minutes to get there. Tickets cost 2,80 euros (one way) in 2025.
Pompei ruins are just a 5 minute walk from the train station.
STOP 2: POMPEII
Pompeii is one of those places that will not leave you indifferent. Located at the feet of Mount Vesuvius, this ancient Roman town was buried under volcanic ash in 79 AD, and has remained frozen in tim since then. Walking through its streets is just impressive. You’ll wander past villas with colorful frescoes, thermas, and many more buildings. There is no words that can describe the sensation you have walking through Pompeii.
Practical information
- Price. Tickets to visit Pompeii Archeological Site cost 18 euros per person (in 2025).
- Opening hours. The site is open daily. Between April and October it is open from 9:00 to 19:00 and between November and March from 9:00 to 17:00.
- Book your tickets online. It is recommended to book your tickets online in advance as tickets are limited to 20.000 per day.
- Time needed. The site is massive, so you should plan to stay here 2 to 3 hours. Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes, you will be doing a lot of walking.
- Good to know. There is barely any shade in the area. Make sure you have plenty of water as well as a hat and sunscreen to protect you from the sun.
STOP 3: Mount vesuvius
After your visit to Pompeii, it is time to go on a little adventure and hike up Mount Vesuvius. As you exit the Archeological Park, you will see plenty of organized tours that will take you to Vesuvuis. Just ignore all of them and look for a Bus Stop were you will see an EAV sign for line 808 saying Bus to Vesuvius. Price should be somewhere between 3 and 5 euros.
The bus ride takes approximately 1 hour and it will drop you where the hike to the Great Cone of Vesuvius starts. The hike itself is surprisingly doable, even if you’re not into hiking. It takes about 30 minutes to reach the crater along a dusty trail. The climb can be a bit steep and gravelly in spots, but nothing too technical. Just take your time, wear decent shoes, and you’ll be fine.
Along the way, you’re treated to sweeping views of the Bay of Naples, Capri in the distance, and, on a clear day, even the outline of Pompeii far below.
When you reach the summit, you’ll find yourself staring into the massive crater of Vesuvius, which is still very much an active volcano. Just don’t panic, it’s been quiet since 1944. Steam sometimes rises from the rocks, which is a wild reminder of the power bubbling beneath your feet.
Practical information
- Access to the hike. To do this hike, you will have to buy a ticket to enter Vesuvius Park. Tickets can only be bought online, so remember to buy them in advance. You can do so here.
STOP 4: TRAIN BACK TO NAPLES
To end your day, you will have to take bus line 808 againg but now you will stop at Torre del Greco. This will take approximately 25 minutes.
At Torre del Greco, you will take the Circumvesuviana Train Line again back to Naples.
DAY 8 - FLY BACK HOME
Sadly, your trip to the Amalfi Coast has ended and it’s time to fly back home.
ACCOMMODATION IN THE AMALFI COAST
Here’s a summary of the different hotels, I stayed at throughout my Amalfi Coast trip. Since we visited the Amalfi Coast in August, the accommodation were all quite expensive, so in most cases, we chose more basic accommodations to save some money.
Salerno - Gia Notte B&B Salerno City Center
We spent one night in Salerno at Gia Notte B&B Salerno Center. This bed & breakfast offers mordern and comfortable rooms with private bathrooms. In the mornings, you are served breakfast with fresh pastries and orange juice.
We were quite happy with this accommodation, the bed was quite comfortable and it had everything we needed.
Photos from Booking.com
Amalfi - Amalfi Hotel Centro Storico
In Amalfi we staye at Amalfi Hotel Centro Storico which was very conveniently located in the city center. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and they had air conditioning which was a life saver.
Positano - Hotel Royal Prisco
In Positano, we stayed for one night at Hotel Roya Prisco and all I can say is that this hotel was amazing! The room was spacious and comfortable and the views from the terrace were out of this world! If you’re visiting Positano, do not hesitate to stay here.
Good to know: To reach this hotel, you will have to walk 5 to 10 minutes uphill from the beach. But don’t let this discourage you from booking it. This is the case with most accommodations in town.
Sorrento - B&B Deluxe Sorrento
The accommodation in Sorrento was my least favorite accommodation in the Amalfi Coast since the rooms were very basic. However, the bed was still quite comfortable and what it lacked in decoration and modern ammenities, it was covered with its amazing location. This B&B is located right in the middle of the historic center of Sorrento.
For us it was ok to go for a more basic accommodation since we were only staying for one night and we were not planning on spending much time in our room. So if like us, you want to find a more affordable accommodation with a great location, you might consider staying here.
Photos from Booking.com
Naples - Mini Flat Toledo
In Naples, we stayed for 3 nights at Mini Flat Toledo. This is a small but very good appartment not far from Toledo metro station. The apparment is equipped with a kitchennette and all other amenities you might need during your stay. Plus, its located inside an old palazzo (Palazzo Trabucco), with a stunning interior courtyard. Definitely recommend this appartment for your stay in Naples.
