5 Star Super Luxury Hotel

Location: Amalfi in Italy
You would be forgiven for thinking that Belmond Hotel Caruso is suspended in a heavenly realm, somewhere between sea and sky. Perched on the edge of the cliff, some 350m above sea level above tiered groves of lemon trees and olive vines, it is your private balcony over the Mediterranean. Sitting on a limestone throne on Ravello's tranquil pinnacle, Belmond Hotel Caruso overlooks the Tyrrhenian Sea. The hotel was originally built in the 11th century by a wealthy family shipwrecked on their voyage to Constantinople. It was once called Palazzo d'Afflitto, the Palace of the Afflicted. Today, the name could not be further from the truth.
Belmond Hotel Caruso has all the worldly luxuries anyone could desire. Vibrant frescoed halls play beside stone vaults adorned with arches and chandeliers. Marble hallways lead to rooms filled with antiques and old master paintings. Inside, our 50 rooms have been carefully restored to their former Neapolitan glory. Stroll through the rose gazebo to our infinity pool. It's an architectural triumph that seemingly stretches straight out into the ocean.
Revitalize yourself with one of our personal trainers; the panoramic ocean view from our fitness center adds a pleasant distraction. Shopaholics, meanwhile, will enjoy our in-house boutique. All products have been hand-selected or designed exclusively for the hotel. From Belmond Hotel Caruso, Ravello is yours to explore. Spend an afternoon strolling through the lush lemon terraces. Perhaps find a bird's eye view over the Amalfi Coast by helicopter. Take our traditional wooden boat, Ercole, to Positano, or drive to Roman Pompeii. Whatever your heart desires, our concierge will arrange it.
As night falls, Chef Mimmo di Raffaele injects a modern twist on traditional Italian dishes in the Belvedere restaurant, each creation using world-class local produce. Each creation uses world-class local produce, and what better way to end the evening than at our atmospheric Cocktail and Piano Bar? With innovative cocktails, wines, champagne and local prosecco, it's a favorite nightlife destination on the Amalfi Coast. It is a testament to the Belmond Hotel Caruso that when guests come to leave they have a tear in their eye. The only regret here is having to leave our piece of paradise.
