Donna Giulia

Luciano ci ha accolti nel suo magico mondo con il sorriso e l’ospitalità di chi ama farti sentire a casa. Aprire la finestra col sole e col mare che entrano nella tua stanza come se fossi su una nave da crociera non ha prezzo. Ogni sera dipingevamo con gli occhi i colori del cielo rosso del tramonto. Colazione buonissima, camere pulitissime e ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Torneremo prestissimo in quello che dopo questa vacanza è diventato il nostro posto del cuore. Consigliato anzi consigliatissimo per tutti gli amanti dei posti che lasciano il segno. Grazie Donna Giulia!!!

We stayed here four nights in the Prestige room, with the terrace. Overall, we were really pleased and although the room is quite basic everything was clean and the people that managed the property were very helpful. The room was expensive but then it is in context with the area and really its all about the view. Which is amazing. The breakfast was perfect and taken on the terrace is something you just wont forget. A couple of things to mention. We hired a car which provides a bit more flexibility although I believe there are plenty of buses to get you around. The weather wasnt great on the first few days which I think pushed people away from the boat taxis onto the buses, which seemed to make them really busy and I imagine frustrating if you could not get on. On the downside for the car is the parking. We parked in the Luna Rosa car park in Amalfi which was really clean and well managed. They only allow the driver into the car park and no luggage too, which seems odd, but it keeps the car park free of people on foot, plus there are no lifts so it would not be easy moving cases around. Its 35euros per single overnight stay but you have to be gone by 12noon the following day or you pay the hourly rate of 5euros. If you need to stay more than one night in one go, we went off to Carpi for the day, then speak to the reception desk and they will exchange your ticket for a long term one, still at 35 euros per night. The car park has a large foot tunnel that takes you into a side street of the main square. We went out on several trips with the car and parking was ok but expensive. There are usually public "blue" bays in most areas but these are often full. Still, zipping round the Amalfi coast is good fun. The people that managed the room were very helpful and responded whenever we needed assistance. They recommended some good restaurants and booked our Capri trip for us. Overall, a lovely room in an amazing area.

Good position overlooking sea in centre of Amalfi very near ferry. Clean and AC worked. But lots of steps up, no help with bag, not allowed to view room before paying, small room, overpriced, breakfast on tray in room (“to have on balcony” but it was a tiny balcony which you couldn’t possibly sit on. The 2 male staff were unpleasant and there’s something amateurish about the place that was very disconcerting.
