Casal Velino Vacations from $1,177

The hotel is not in Sorrento, but they operate a shuttle bus hourly. If you’re looking for town centre location, this is not for you. The hotel is set high above Sorrento and from the public spaces, commands sensational views across the Gulf of Naples, and an amazing view over Sorrento itself and Vesuvius! It’s a hard view to beat! The hotel & rooms are spotlessly clean, the bar and terrace all have amazing views and the swimming pool is lovely, although was almost bath temperature whilst we were there so ideal. We had partial sea view rooms with balcony on 1st floor (224 and 222 which our daughters had). The rooms really need updating as look very dated and the balcony and partial sea view were just not worth the extra money. Also no coffee/tea making facilities which is always a negative for me. However, beds were very comfortable and the rooms have AC. Restaurant was very good, although we ate quite simply (ie pasta!) and the bar was great - hotel prices obviously. Breakfast was excellent. Same dining room as dinner and a lovely space to eat in. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and found the staff to be plentiful and universally excellent, in particular the receptionists. Note on travel: it’s worth taking a taxi or using the hotel airport transfer service. Public transport looks good on paper, but the trains are rammed. We did a trip to Pompeii by train and it was so crowded we got an uber back to the hotel. Costly but money well spent!

Great staff kind and Gentle Great break fast the air conditioning was working well

Amazing view, excellent property, attentive staff literally the best hotel in Positano! The food was exceptional and the room was perfect in every way! The bed was so comfortable and the hot tub was cleaned to perfection.

We went to Miramare for our 1 week honeymoon and loved every second of it. The room had a perfect balcony overlooking the sea, and makes for a perfect morning coffee spot. The breakfast is delicious with lots of fresh, local foods and gluten free alternatives. The thermal baths are therapeutic and calm, with different temperatures. Also it has private beach access, and great lunch options. All of the staff we came across were really pleasant and welcoming. Sant’Angelo is a quaint area with many restaurants and a wine bar. Highly recommend this hotel!

Staff was amazing, everything was clean, food was great. HIGHLY recommend. Bus stops and everything you need to get around was right out the door. Thank you!
