Hotel la Certosa

Everything about the hotel confirmed the excellent reviews. It's a beautiful and peaceful place and staff are kind and attentive, Alessandro was lovely to talk to and very helpful. We had a comfortable room overlooking the bay and could hear the waves on the pebbles as we went to sleep and woke up. It's a good place to snorkel and there are great walks, we had Sunflower and Cicerone guides. It's a steep walk up to Nerano and Termini but worth it to see the local landscape, or you can get the bus. It's a good area for birds and butterflies and we met friendly local people on our walks. Do try the limoncello granita in the old art cafe at Nerano!

Wanderfull holiday Hotel immaculately clean, confortables beds, free beach, gorgeus food, continental breakfast included abundant and perfectly done overlooking the bay. Cant say enough about the staff, alfonso, alessandro and especially massimo and others. Always ready to help and assist you on everything you need. Public buses to sorrento every hour and cheap. Excursions to capri, amalfi etc from outside hotel door. We highly recommend this jewel and certainly be back in future.

We flew to Naples and hand had a driver to take us to the hotel which seemed to take forever given it was all twisty, hilly narrow roads. When we got there is was late and dark and we were initially disappointed as it all looked to be very old and tired. However when we awoke and went for breakfast we discovered the delights of a converted monastery right on the beach with basic by charming furnishings and amenities. Our room was rustic but spacious with a lovely tiled bathroom. Breakfast was always quiet although we did see a few guests now and then. We always went early when we wanted to get the bus into Sorrento. The bus ride took a while but the scenery and people watching was well worth it, plus it cost very little. From Sorrento we got the train to Pompeii and another day, the ferry to Capri. Right next to the hotel is a wooden jetty and from there we enjoyed a boat trip to Amalfi and Positano, complete with interesting commentary on the way. We ate in the restaurant one evening, and in a different restaurant every other night. All were very good and just a stroll away. In the end we felt we had struck lucky and had a fantastic trip.

Myself and my wife stayed here for 5 days arriving on the 3rd of October, we booked through Tui on a half board deal . The not so good stuff first ……. Breakfast was very basic with no hot food ( scrambled or boiled eggs would be a great addition) Now the good stuff….. the food at dinner time was superb with everything cooked to order and using local ingredients and all very fresh , the best we have had in the six visits to Italy . The hotel was spotless with the room cleaned every day . The family run hotel was very friendly with excellent staff and even let us keep the room for an extra 6 hours at no extra charge. The resort was quiet possibly due to being the end of season, but the bus stop to Sorrento is right outside the hotel…. Thanks for a great holiday

This place is a gem. Staff were brilliant, food amazing and the hotel is itself is situated in the perfect spot. Special mention to the waiters; nothing was too much trouble and to Massimo for helping us out on the beach each day. I'm sure we will be back! We paid the additional luggage and brought our paddleboards which was a great idea as the kids spent most of the day in the water in the heat. The Burrows family.

We had a family meal at the Restorante Da Pappone today for 20 people. The food and service were fantastic. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone and will certainly visit again if or when we revisit Marina del Cantone. Thank you!
