Excellent

Excellent romantic hotel. Close to Amalfi Coast. Great rooms and fantastic service. Great pool. Awesome vibe.

Belmond Hotel Caruso, located on the highest point of Ravello, overlooking the spectacular Amalfi Coast, reopened in 2005 after a complete restoration. All rooms and suites are very large and elegantly appointed with all comforts. Most of them feature either a private terrace or balcony, some even a private garden. Swimming in the spectacular heated infinity pool is like being suspended between sea and sky. Dining at the hotel’s restaurant is a feast for the gourmets.

An intriguing and glittering past has led to Caruso, a Belmond Hotel on the Amalfi Coast, becoming the heavenly hideaway it is today. Its origins date from the 11th century, when a noble family was shipwrecked off Ravello en route to Constantinople. They built a palace high on the cliffs as a symbol of their survival. Over the centuries, features such as a splendid colonnade, lookout tower and marble columns were added. The 50 majestic rooms and suites are beyond compare. Reached by marbled hallways, they captivate with stone vaulted ceilings, Italian antiques and vine-clad balconies. At the acclaimed Ristorante Belvedere, imaginative Neapolitan cuisine combines with fabled ocean views on a sun-splashed terrace. Magnificent frescoes decorate the cocktail bar. The colonnade is now home to an open-air, panoramic champagne bar. The spa offers Mediterranean-inspired rituals, which can also be enjoyed in a sea-view gazebo.
