• Palazzo Sasso (Ravello) Phone: 39-089-818-181 Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation : "Rooms mix "soft colors and antique furniture"; recently updated bathrooms have whirlpools and Bulgari amenities."

• • Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "The Sasso is perched 305m (1,000 ft.) above the coast and evokes a Moorish pavilion. The guest rooms are luxurious, even if not overly large, and the views of the Mediterranean compensate for the lack of space."

• • Travel + Leisure 500 Winner: "A peaceful and romantic mountaintop setting high above the water."

• Hotel Santa Caterina (Amalfi Coast) Phone: 39-089-871-012 Directions
  • Concierge.com : "Panoramic views of the Amalfi Coast have guests raving about this 'exquisite and phenomenal beauty' built in a series of terraced citrus groves that trickle to the sea. Villa il Rosso, a recent addition, has four rooms with original antiques."

• • Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "The guest rooms are furnished in good taste, with an eye toward comfort. Most have private balconies facing the sea (the higher the floor, the better the view along the coast)."

• • Travel + Leisure 500 Winner: "A luxury hotel in a quiet setting, with direct beach access via 2 glass elevators."
• Il San Pietro Di Positano (Positano) Phone: 39-089-875-455
  • Concierge.com Recommendation: "Spread over a series of cliff ledges on the Amalfi Coast, this hotel is 'like a dream'; 'pictures just don't do it justice'--hence the perfect location score. All rooms have tiled floors and wood furnishings, but no two are alike."

• • Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "The suitelike guest rooms are superglamorous with state-of-the-art bathrooms, many with picture windows beside the bathtubs (there's even a huge sunken Roman bath in one suite). Antiques and art objects add to the effect."

• • Travel + Leisure 500 Winner: "An architectural wonder, renowned for its unique mountainside setting."

• Le Sirenuse (Positano) Phone: 39-089-875-066 Directions (PDF)
  • Conde Nast Traveler Gold List : "The former summer home gets a perfect score for its location in a fishing village. Whitewashed rooms have colorful glazed-tile floors and shuttered French doors."

• • Fodor's Review : "As legendary as its namesake sirens, this exquisite, in-town 18th-century palazzo vies with the Hotel San Pietro for best in show, but less flamboyantly."

• • Travel + Leisure 500 Winner: "The detail-oriented service of a family-run property, plus some of the coast's most luxurious spaces."

• Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria Sorrento (Sorrento) Phone: 39-081-877-7111 Directions
  • Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "The huge guest rooms boast their own drama, some with balconies opening onto the cliffside drop; they have a wide mix of furnishings that include many antique pieces."

• • Fodor's Choice : "Far from the madding, sunburned crowds that swamp Ischia, this luxurious forgetaway perches in splendid isolation on the extreme promontory of Punta Cornacchia."

• Villa Lara (Amalfi) Phone: 39-089-873-6358 Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation: "Most of the spacious, white-walled, air-conditioned rooms have views across terraced vineyards, a tumble of rooftops, and majolica church domes to the sea, though a couple of the upper rooms are under the eaves and illuminated only by skylights."

• • Frommer's Recommended: "The antique villa is surrounded by lemon trees and flowering bougainvillea. The furnishings are antiques but are combined with functional amenities, including such luxuries as a hydromassage shower."

• • TripAdvisor 4.5 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)

• Villa Rosa (Positano) Phone: 39-089-811-955 Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation: "The spotless, air-conditioned rooms are sparsely but comfortably furnished and have whitewashed walls and terrazzo-tiled floors. In addition, each room is equipped with a refrigerator, TV, and phone."

• Hotel Bristol (Sorrento) Phone: 39-081-878-4522

• • TripAdvisor 3.5 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)

• Hotel Villa San Michele (Salerno) Phone: 39-089-872-237 Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation: "A winding staircase carved into the cliffside takes you down to the rocky beach (really more of a swimming platform), from which you can arrange to be whisked away by boat."

• • TripAdvisor 4.5 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)

• Albergo Lido Mare (Amalfi) Phone: 39-089-871-332 Map
  • Frommer's Recommended: "The high-ceilinged guest rooms are airy and contain a scattering of modern furniture mixed with Victorian-era antiques."

• • TripAdvisor 3.5 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)

• Hotel Toro (Ravello) Phone: 39-089-857-211 Google Map
  • Frommer's Recommended: "Just off the village square with its cathedral, this real bargain is a charming small villa that has been converted into a hotel."

• • TripAdvisor 4.0 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)

• Hotel Sant'Agata (Sant' Agata dui due Golfi) Phone: 39-081-808-0800 Google Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation: "The coast between Castellabate and Marina di Camerota offers slim pickings for the more demanding traveler, but Sant' Agata recommends itself with pretty sea views and filling (if unremarkable) country food."
