Reviews and Ratings
Staying at Belmond Caruso was an unforgettable experience. The rooms were incredibly gorgeous, featuring a huge patio with breathtaking views of the coast and lemon trees, albeit at a high price point. The service was constantly helpful and provided excellent advice on dining and sightseeing, making the stay truly special. The location was arguably the most beautiful in Ravello, offering immaculate views of the Amalfi Coast. The dining experience was delightful, with a variety of choices, but the tableware quality was lacking. Overall, a beautiful stay with some minor drawbacks.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel with breathtaking views of the Amalfi coast. The rooms were charming, though a little dated, and the terrace provided a beautiful view, although lacking privacy due to the closeness to neighboring terraces.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room opened onto its own terrace area, which was lovely but slightly dated. The terrace provided a beautiful view, although not very private as it was close to other rooms' terraces. The exposed brick archways added a unique touch, and the upgrade from a sea view junior suite to an executive suite was amazing.
Palazzo Avino exceeded all expectations with its stunning rooms and impeccable service. The location overlooking the Amalfi Coast is breathtaking, making it an unforgettable experience. The dining options were varied but lacked in presentation, yet the overall value for money was excellent.
My stay at this hotel was simply incredible! The rooms were one of the best we have ever stayed in, with spacious layouts and incredible views. The beautiful and very comfortable beds and linens, along with the high-level cleanliness, exceeded our expectations. The personal touches in the room made us feel special and right at home.
