We arrived here after a week of vigorous travel around Southern Italy (exploring ancient sites, tasting local wines, etc). On our first evening, we read the local guide book and picked out the ancient ruins we would explore. When we awoke the next morning, plans changed.

The location is the best out of all the Amalfi Coast luxury hotels.
