The scenic Ravello, perched high on a natural balcony overlooking the Amalfi Coast and Gulf of Salerno, is home to Hotel Caruso. Set around an 11th century cathedral in beautiful gardens, the hotel is ideally located to explore the car-free village of Ravello, the island of Capri and the many towns along the beautiful Amalfi Coast.
Most of Hotel Caruso's 55 rooms, furnished with Neapolitan style furniture and antiques, have glorious sea views and many have their own private gardens. Bathrooms are luxurious to a fault with fluffy bathrobes and beautiful Bvlgari and Penhaligon goodies. While the atmosphere maybe of an ancient palazzo, satellite televisions, DVDs and Playstations are available for those who can't live without modern technology.
Executive chef, Franco Luise, who also opened Cip's del Palazzetto restaurant at the Cipriani in Venice, oversees delicious, fresh creations from the hotel's three restaurants, where Neapolitan cuisine and regional Italian dishes are the speciality served by friendly staff.
The hotel's pool sits on top of the hillside and offers breathtaking views. Tennis and golf are also close by and easily arranged through the hotel's concierge.
With panoramas described by Gore Vidal as some of 'the most beautiful in the world', if you are looking for a romantic hideaway, your search is over.
