Not a positive stay because of an unusual circumstance at breakfast and after departing property, but worth sharing.The property is a steep but short hike up from bus station, arrange for a ride up if you have luggage. The view is great, rooms are pleasant, check in was fine and a nice, but small pool deck on upper level. First issue started at breakfast, coffee was warm at best and when adding milk became cool instantly. When brought to the attention of Costanza, he argued about it, but brought hot coffee and milk afterwards, why the argument? Classless. Breakfast is specified as a buffet and is included, it's limited in variety, but okay. Don't go for a second croissant, I was sharply rebuked in Italian and then told it was one per person, again, classless. Costanza's parents run the breakfast service and do not speak any English. As everywhere in Italy, no sound insulation, noisy rooms.The weather turned cold and windy for our departure and the ferry service was halted, we managed to get away.To be fair, our stay was fine other than the breakfast issue, and the noise. It was afterwards that I have a big problem with. We had been travelling for a month, had suffered with illness and fatigue. In our haste to move on to Rome, I left 2 pairs of very nice shoes in the room. When we contacted Costanza, it was complete denial, no shoes. I run a vacation property in Canada, people leave things often, important to be honest and return them

Lovely B&B with a fantastic view. Costanzo was great with prompt and easy communication. They had free arrival/departure transportation with our luggage from/to a nearby bus stop. This was much appreciated due to the many steps up to their fantastic view. We’re in our mid fifties with bad knees so we found the steps challenging. But we thought the place was quite charming.

Best view on the whole island. The owner is helped us with our bags from Ana Capri and helped us down with the bags leaving anacapri. Best place I ever stayed in. Worth the money. If I could give it 10 stars I would.

A little gem in Anacapri
Monte Solaro BnB is a little gem in Anacapri! Breath taking views and true Italian family hospitality, away from the main hustle and bustle of Capri. Constanzo went above and beyond his call of duty when we needed help arranging transport ( ferry, buses and taxi) getting to places around the island, ideas on what to do and when and restaurant/ food recommendations . The hotel is located high up and requires you to ascend a steep hill with some stairs ( the view when you get there is worth it!) , keep this in mind if mobility or fitness are important considerations for where you stay. Constanzo will collect you in a vehicle from the bottom of the hill with your luggage on arrival. We’d definitely come back and recommend Monte Solaro.

Fantastic views. A nice pool on the roof top and amazing breakfast prepared by Anna-Maria. You should be mindful that the residence is up a VERY steep hill. This was managing for us, but I can imagine it would be a struggle if you don’t have an adequate fitness level. Constanso collected us from the bus stop when we arrived with our luggage and I understand from other guests that you can arrange to be picked up from the bottom of the hill if required, however we didn’t do this. It was a fabulous stay, but please be mindful of the hill if you will struggle to come and go.

Constanzo picked us up for the bus station in Anacapri and took us up the hill to our accommodation. We cannot express how impressed we were with everything about the hotel, especially the view. Would highly recommend this place to anybody and I’m sure we’ll be back at some point. Thank you very much for your hospitality Constanzo.

Spectacular Bed and Breakfast
Fantastic views and gracious hosts make this a spectacular place to stay. Costanzo made our family feel very comfortable and helped us with what to do in town. His brother Carlo prepared a delicious meal with fresh ingredients while their father made us tasty cappuccinos and served a light breakfast in the morning. You won’t want to miss this one.

This is a wonderful family run hotel. Costanzo made us feel very welcome right from our arrival. The hotel is spotlessly clean and well maintained. Views from all of the terraces are stunning, looking over the Island of Ischia and the bay of Naples. We enjoyed a delicious three course supper on our last evening, including home made limoncello.

Constanzo and the staff at Monte Solaro are truly dedicated hosts offering a calm and tranquil hideaway in Anacapri. Our room was spotlessly clean and the bathroom was much bigger and spacious than expected (2x the size of our 5 star hotel bathroom in Sorrento!).The breakfast on the terrace is absolutely stunning with ocean views and hillside vistas. And do not miss mama's homemade bread served daily!

Tranquil location with beautiful views
Everything about our stay was great. I'm so glad to have selected it & will not hesitate to stay again if I return to Anacapri. During our stay, it was wonderfully quiet at night (no city noise) and waking up to birdsong ... nice! It is centrally located. Light breakfast is provided (the fresh fruit is so delicious). Walkable to everything - transit, shops, restaurants, & the chairlift to the top of Monte Solaro (a must see for the views). There is also a pool & sundeck. Just be prepared for a steep walk & stairs from the main road to the hotel. Very thankful that the host brought us back & forth with our luggage upon check in/check out! Perfezione!

Amazing hotel and hospitality - do not miss out!
This is an oasis on the island of Capris that is away from the hustle and bustle and full of beautiful views and amazing hospitality from a family of people who care about their guests. The B&B has four outdoor levels for guests to enjoy - a main level where breakfast and drinks are served, a second level sunbathing deck, a third level pool, and a forth level where you can have amazing supper prepared while you take in the sunset. You never have to leave but if you wish to you are very accessible to the chair lift, restaurants, shops and buses. Service here is second to none. It is a family operation. Costanza is your main point of contact but his parents and siblings also host and prepare and serve meals. Everyone is lovely and we will absolutely return!

This is the best place I've ever stayed. The only reason I'm giving it five stars is that I can't give it ten. The website pictures don't do it justice--it is fantasy-like beautiful. Costanza met us at the bottom of the stairs since I didn't read the email to call him when the bus dropped us off and he'd meet us with a car for the luggage (that's an important email--it's an uphill climb). But he was personable, charming, professional, friendly and would answer any questions. The place was clean and quiet and surrounded by green and flowers. One word: magical. This will be the standard which all hotels will be measured from now on. We're from Texas and we'd like to come back if we're ever close to here again. There are steps leading up to the property (it is on a mountain after all) so be prepared. I'm 55 and my husband is 62, though, so totally do-able. If you're in Capri, stay at Anacapri at the Monte Solara. If you stay anywhere else, you'll be cheating yourself out of a wonderful experience!

Great stay above the crowds
Constanza and his family are superb hosts, attending to all of our needs. It was great to be met and have the luggage taken up the steep hill on our arrival - probably would not have managed otherwise!! The setting is sublime, views superb and accommodation first class. The finishing touch was the (very good) pizza on Sauturday night when they had a party - unexpected but lovely.

Great stay in Anacapri
I recently stayed at the Monte Solaro and it was great! The entire property was immaculate and very comfortable. Costanzo and his staff are extremely helpful and welcoming. Breakfast was nice as well. There is a nice pool With a great patio to relax on and watch the sunset- the view was unbelievable! The property is set high on the mountain but we didn't mind the walk up the hill -took us less than 10 mins. Costanzo is always willing to give you a lift as well. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Quiet, charming B&B overlooking Anacapri and coast
Everything was perfect about our stay here. It was nice to be above and away from the Capri tourist hubbub, overlooking Anacapri and the coast from the quiet comfort of the Monte Solaro balcony. Anacapri downtown is just a 10-minute walk (albeit a steep one) away. The staff was attentive, helpful, and friendly. I really can't think of anything I would change. Keep in mind this is in Anacapri, and thus a bus ride away from the boat tours and other Capri attractions. But it's a short bus ride that runs regularly and pretty late.

Views of the Island right outside your room!
Beautiful small B&B at the top of the island (Anacapri), with amazing views right outside the room. Costanzo and his family are so nice and accomodating. There is a swimming pool and a sun deck to chill after long walks around the island. The lifting chairs to Monte Solaro are within walking distance and can buy the tickets at the hotel for a discounted price. Just be aware: the hotel is at the top of a very steep hill, so if you are not planning to rent car or scooter is a tough walk up the hill not suited for everybody. Other than that I highly recommend this hotel, far from the crowds, with beautiful views and very good price compared to other hotels in Capri. Will definitely be back!!!

Nice views, hard to get to
This hotel has great views and the host was very friendly. Other than that, it was not a very convenient location. It was very hard to get to because it is at the top of a mountain. Would not recommend unless you are fit and can walk a 15 minute hike up a steep gradient every time you want to get to your hotel. The host made dinner reservations for us, and the included breakfast was good.

Amazing views and excellent staff
We had a wonderful 3 nights at the Monte Solaro situated a short walk from the centre of Anacapri, an ideal location to explore both capri and anacapri either by foot, bus or taxi. The bus station is a 10 min walk away at the bottom of the hill. The hotel staff are lovely and very helpful, although the hotel is at the top of a large step hill it is easily walkable. the hotel came to collect our bags and drop us off on check out also. We would definitely recommend the Monte Solaro for anyone looking to explore Capri.

Nice, cosy and intimate little structure.
Located on an elevation in Anacapri, The view will take your breath away :) you will almost want to just chill in your veranda and keep staring ,rather than visit around :) It was a half planned trip with no real preset schedule, I only wish I could have stayed longer. Definitely, going back as soon as possible. I travel, extensively, at times and I can range between all kind of levels of lodging and I would take Monte Solaro B&B over many many more expensive and luxurious hotels. It's so genuine and peaceful. well, I think I should stop before I write a poem or a song about it ,LOL. On a side note, at a short walk to Via Orlandi , try not to miss the artisanal shoemaker Antonio Viva. He will make custom made to measure shoes for you at a surprisingly affordable price. Last but not least, I really hate to leave bad reviews, but avoid the Pizzeria Al Buco like the plague. I have an extremely high tolerance to bad service and massive understanding when things don't go as planned, due to my actual and previous professional experiences, but the owner is, hands down, the rudest and most condescending person I have met in a many years. Absolute ignorance about decent customer service and excellence in arrogance. Yes, he thinks he's someone because he has some money and can exploit and mistreat his employees and be disrespectful to customers but it looks like he managed to have a monopoly on "certain" aspects of the local market, so no real existing competition at certain hour.

Charmed by the stunning location, views and hosts
Firstly the location is OUTSTANDING because it is elevated high above Anacapri. All rooms have the beautiful view overlooking the western bay of Napoli and the islands of Procida and Ischia, meaning you will always see the sunset. Each bedroom (only 5) open out directly onto the large terrace, where you can sit and enjoy the view. Although we did not use it,(as we stayed out of season) there is a pool with lounging area above which also enjoys this outstanding view. The family who run the property cannot do enough for you to ensure your stay is brilliant. This includes offering a free lift up the steep hill to the property. We were made to feel part of the family and were invited to join them for drinks and food on New Year's Eve which was very special indeed. Constanzo will be, undoubtedly your main point of contact during your stay, his English is excellent and he is very knowledgable and supportive if you are planning any trips. Anacapri is a revelation as it has a local vibe without beng uber chique or expensive. Indeed it is quite a contrast to find working farms so near to the designer shops in Capri town. It feels like another world which enhances your experience. Access to beautiful walks and the chair lift to Monte Solaro summit are all minutes away by foot. Public transport by bus or taxi to Capri town or the Blue Grotto are very frequent. We walked to many beautiful spots from the B&B, it was wonderful if you like walking. A real gem of a place.

Welcoming B&B with Impressive Sunsets
We enjoyed our stay here so much that we extended it another day and decided to skip our visit to Naples! Staying in Anacapri is the way to go in my opinion. Capri is also very charming, but with a more touristy and commercial feel. Our host was very helpful in recommending some great sites to visit. Hiking the Path of the Little Forts, taking the chairlift to Monte Solaro (5 min. walk from the B&B) to see the spectacular views, and walking along the scenic coastline to Bagni di Tiberio beach were a few of the highlights. Costanzo was very friendly and accommodating. He offered us rides, but we actually didn't mind the steep incline up to the property. We stayed here as part of our honeymoon trip to the Amalfi coast and did a lot of research to make sure we were picking a good place. We loved Monte Solaro and would definitely stay here again!
