We stayed at Il Girasole for 5 days. The hotel is perfect. Nice rooms, a perfect view especially the sunsets, and a super friendly staff. We recommend it to everyone and we will definitely come back here!
The WiFi only works on the terrace and at the reception and not in the rooms. We let the owner know this fact and he did not make any effort to improve the situation and even implied we were lying. He was rude to us all along our stay. The rooms are old fashioned and the breakfast not worth at all. Extremely poor quality regarding the price of the rooms and certainly one of our worst experiences in Italy. Many other better options in Capri.
We spent 5 days there and it was excellent. The staff was nice, available and helpful. The room was clean. The pool is amazing with a direct view on the sea and the sunset. There is a pool snack with a very nice lady who makes good and unexpensive bruschettas. The breakfast is good and offers a lot of choice. It is also well located, at 10 min from Anacapri centre, via a pedestrian road. There is a shuttle service to and from the Marina which is very convenient. We highly recommand.
Il Girasole is tucked away in a lovely quiet spot just on the edge of Anacapri (Approx. 15 minute quite easy walk into Anacapri with local bus station about 10 minutes walk - these buses are easy to use). You need to be careful walking round the 2 bends into Anacapri. Hotel offer free pick up / drop off shuttle to the marina. Don't be put off by the small size of the shuttle vehicle, it's ideal for the narrow lanes. Check in / out was simple and you are given a map with the local highlights explained. Rooms: We stayed in Room 1, (superior sea view) just opposite reception which had a sea view and good A/C. Clean room, comfy bed and good shower room with dual basins. The room does adjoin the narrow access road but didn't cause any issues as it's quiet with occasional scooter noise. Other good rooms would be any of the sea view rooms overlooking the garden terrace. Breakfast: Lovely dining area, good selection of bread, cold meats, cheese, scrambled egg, fruit, yogurt, pastries, fruit juice, tea and good coffee. Pool Area: Nice pool area with sun-loungers and tables / chairs. Towels supplied via poolside Snack Bar. We had coffees and brushcetta, which was fine and booked to room. I recommend talking to the staff to get local info, restaurants etc.... All staff were very helpful, particularly Angela, Domenico (great cappuccinos) and Mario (good driving). We had 5 relaxing nights at Il Girasole and would definitely stay again if returning to Anacapri.…
I would definitely stay here again. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They pick you up at the port in Capri. Breakfast was fresh and good for the value. They serve from 7:30-10am I believe. Very accommodating. Rooms were clean, could use a fresh coat of paint but overall not bad.
