Wow what a place. Staff was amazing all around and couldn’t have asked for a better experience with the staff. Giuseppe the Concierge—I would give 10 stars to if I could!!!’ He was helping us book stuff before we arrived. Enzo the bartender in the main building was also amazing serving up late night drinks and great conversation. The resort had a great proximity to downtown Sorrento— maybe 15 min walk or they have a tuk tuk car they will drive you in almost to downtown then a 2 min walk. Ocean seas was great with the elevator down from the cliffs and bar service out there. Great views all around and prices were what you would expect for this type of place The only downside was it seems like a wedding venue almost every day and they limit your access certain areas of the waterview property which was aggravating at times given we were paying guests as well. Rooms are average with no real views to speak of. Pool area was nice as well With a nice restaurant there as well. Coku was described as a nice romantic dinner option—- it wasn’t —- loud club like music and given its Open to the public at sunset it’s filled with instagrammers all trying to take sunset selfies— many in beachwear and being loud and obnoxious. Regardless of these negatives Giuseppe really is the main character here and he’s a great resource and makes your stay amazing and delivers to you whatever you may need! We would stay here again.

The hotel was 5 star in every aspect. The gardens were a unique adventure each day we discovered something new. The key aspect here to be applauded is the exemplary service. Giuseppe took special care of us. My sister in law was ill ( prior week in Tuscany) and he coordinated a local physician to come to the room and see her, prescribe medication and sent his representative to the pharmacy to get the needed items. He then had them delivered to the room for administration within an hour. This would never happen in the USA. She then was able to enjoy the second week. Giuseppe is a special person and we will never forget all the daily coordination of restaurant reservations and general checking in on the 3 of us ladies. We have his contact information and will certainly stay here on our next visit to the area. Sorrento is magical and the location of the hotel is central to everything you need to see and do in the area. Very private!

We loved this hotel! Incredibly beautiful and the service was impeccable. The concierge, Giuseppe, was very helpful both before the trip and during! The restaurant at the hotel, Coku Robata Grill, was gorgeous. The food was incredible - the stuffed zucchini pasta and the tomahawk were both so good would highly recommend. Massimo was our server and sommelier - might be the best service I’ve ever had at a restaurant! So knowledgeable about the wines. Thank you for an amazing stay!
