After a disastrous, sleepless night at another hotel, we quickly booked the last available room at Magi House (Antica Dimora's other property). Too early for check-in, we dropped off our bags before heading to Positano for the day. Upon our return, we were met at our car by Andrea from the hotel, who very excitedly told us that he had a big surprise for us: they had moved our bags and were upgrading us to the suite at the newly opened Antica Dimora!! I literally had tears in my eyes as we toured the breathtaking, brand-new accommodations: a huge room with beautiful bedding, flatscreen TV, large bathroom with a gorgeous walk-in shower, enormous Jacuzzi tub, elegant lighting and many other luxurious amenities. On top of that, the room--as well as many of the public spaces in the hotel--is tastefully decorated with museum-quality architectural antiques that the owner (who is an antiquities dealer) placed throughout--a feast for the senses! Breakfast every morning was served on the upstairs terrace (which is also equipped with a large hot tub) by a lovely woman who put out a beautiful spread of homemade pastries and cooked our eggs to order. Andrea was helpful in suggesting wonderful restaurants to enhance our stay and all of the staff was so warm and welcoming we felt like family. Most importantly, we finally had a good night's sleep!!
We will forever be grateful to Andrea and Magi House for saving our stay in Sorrento--we look forward to staying with them again!!
