My family and I booked last minute to stay at this lovely resort only to book the following night the following day. The hotel has a grand entrance and the interior decor was beautiful. The outdoor terrace bar is tastefully decorated with elegant furnishings, ceiling fans and a beachy style partition to the main breakfast hall. It reminded me of the Raffles in Singapore. The pool was perfect and the surrounding gardens some of the most beautiful I’ve seen at a hotel/resort ever. It would be great to have some pool beds on the grassy areas surrounding the pool and access to towels at the poolside, but I suspect covid is impacting these touches. The room was in a classic style, comprising a king size bed and ample space.. very comfortable indeed and we had a good sleep too. Aldo at the reception was fantastic in providing us with recommendations for dinner. We ended up having a late dining experience with direct views of the Paestum temples, I believe the temple of Cerere. Thank you, Aldo. The breakfast was one of the best we had on our 14 day trip. Everything was super fresh, well presented and there was plenty of variety. What was the highlight was the selection of local bufala dairy products - the yoghurts were amazing. Lastly, it was recommended that we dine at Tre Olivi. We only ordered a starter and a main, but were overwhelmed with the assaggi for appetizers as well as the display of deserts they presented after our main to complement the overall dining experience. Service was exceptional and local, cilentana cuisine out of this world. I would stress this be a dining experience if you are staying at the hotel or nearby. I would definitely return to this hotel in the future, and to Cilento in general.

The Savoy Beach hotel is a fab 5 star hotel with lovely friendly staff and service so the usual services you would expect Great breakfast buffet style with plenty of everything fruits cereals and home made cakes like the usual danish but grandmas cake was the local one that I loved !! It’s is very popular for wedding and we can understand why but all is enclosed and so the noise from the wedding we did not experience… but the glam we did,and to see all evening gowns …so a feast for me !! There is a private beach club called 93 and you have your own comfy Sun loungers with umbrella and membership is included in your stay with a driver service for the 600 m if you wish or to cycle down too!! We have our own car so we have done both !! Excellent set up serving drinks and food at your table on the beach !! They have a 2 star Mitchelon star Restaurant and recieved them both from set up within a year !! you must book a table ., for the olive at the Savoy . We flew into Naples Airport A very small and hectic airport You go out of arrivals and look for a white passenger van to bring you to the car rental area in the parking garage ! We drove down motorway 1 1/2hrs to the Almalfi cost The highway is crazy!! and they drive on the right hand side so be warned .. crazy drivers.!!

The hotel is without doubt stunning with beautiful gardens. The smells around the hotel are amazing. Cleaning of rooms twice a day superb. The hotel is out of the way, we recommend getting a train from Paestum train station, we got to Salerno for 3 euros each. We went on to hire a car from there for a few days (be warned Salerno is very busy as is Amalfi coast and Italian drivers like to beep and drive where they want!) Driving was a little scary 😂 The drive to the Amalfi coast was abt 2 hours. We visited the ruins nearby which we highly recommend ! It was around 10 euros totally worth it. The hotel is expensive for eating and not easily accessible other than basic breakfast. We ate a lot at the beach 93 or Athena across the road. You must eat at Nonna Sceppa, best place we ate, delicious! Taxi is 15 euros - make a reservation. The thing that lets the hotel down is the weddings, yes they are lovely now and then but there were sometimes 2 a day and this meant as hotel guests you felt like you were intruding on weddings simply by wanting to sit by the pool or in the garden in the evening. One night there wasn’t a wedding the lights were turned off meaning you felt you couldn’t go out there! They tend to push you to the beach. Beach 93 is paradise , the sun loungers on private beach and beds around the pool, good escape from weddings however even here closed twice early in the week we stayed for weddings! It would be nice to have a pool bar at the hotel if you wanted to stay there for the day and a snack bar. We took the bikes to the beach /pool most days but evenings you had to go out of the hotel to eat as there is nothing to do there unless you want to spend a lot of money in there Michelin restaurant. We enjoyed a massage by the beach, heaven and we did the wellness path at the spa. Extra expenses but worth it. Overall beautiful hotel and grounds but felt pushed to spend time away from there.
