Overview

Hotel Santa Caterina sits at the edge of Amalfi, overlooking the sea, within reach of Positano, Ravello, Sorrento, Capri, Pompeii, Herculaneum and Naples. The rooms are decorated in a classic Amalfitan style, no two alike, with hand-painted majolica floors, marble bathrooms and balconies or terraces that look over the sea or the garden. Room categories range from Partial Sea View and Front Sea View to Deluxe, Junior Suite and Suite, each furnished with a mix of early twentieth-century pieces and modern comfort. Connecting rooms can be requested in advance for families travelling together.

Dining centres on Ristorante Glicine, which holds one Michelin star and reworks classic Amalfi Coast recipes with a modern hand. Down at sea level, the hotel's Beach Club runs Ristorante Al Mare, serving the flavours of Amalfi by the water. Guests can also book treatments at the hotel's Spa, including the signature Oro di Amalfi lemon massage, or train in a fitness room with a sea view.

Two Special Suites, each with its own pool, are set apart from the main rooms: Follia Amalfitana is surrounded by an orange and lemon grove, with an emerald majolica floor, a circular hot tub and a shell-shaped king bed, plus a private pool and solarium over the sea. Chalet Giulietta e Romeo is built into the rock on two levels, with a circular terrace over the water, a heated infinity pool and a small private garden, and is popular with couples on honeymoon. The hotel describes itself as a place families return to across generations, a holiday appointment passed down rather than a one-off stay.
