Ara Maris Hotel & Spa

Location: Definitely located in central area of Sorrento. It's very conveninent to travel either by train (10min walk) or by ferry (15min walk) Breakfast: Great variety of bakeries Room: It is a brand new hotel, everything is just clean. The beds are comfy. This hotel is definitely in the top tier in Sorrento for the same cost, considering there're many other bigger (but not necessarily cleaner and nicer) hotels nearby in the area.

The lobby bar was great as was the roof top bar. The breakfast was self service and offered everything you could want.

In short, everything. The design of the hotel is a tasteful blend of modern and classic which gives a sense of peace and calm. The room was stunning. The accessible bathroom was also beautiful and elegant. A seat was missing from the shower but this was promptly rectified and I have since heard they bought seats for all accessible showers. Any issues which arose were met with quick and efficient solutions by the staff, as well as a smile and a little something to "apologise" for the inconvenience. We were given a bottle of prosecco and strawberries as we had just got married. All areas of the hotel were accessible to me and my husband who uses a manual wheelchair. There is no lift in the pool but we knew this and it is not an issue for us. The pool area is verdant, luxurious and absolutely beautiful. The spa was equally breathtaking and we both spent a a full hour enjoying the facilities in absolute privacy and silence. The spa treatments are steeply priced but also high quality. Breakfast is one of the best breakfasts I have had in Italy - heavy on the sweet as is our custom but many savoury options available. What can I say, it was just the perfect place to relax after the stress of organising our wedding and the wedding day. I am so glad we went here! Again the staff met our every need, and a special mention to Enrico who helped us figure out accessibility.

Beautiful hotel, location is just around the corner to downtown. Incredible view of the water from the front hotel rooms and top deck. Lovely pool open 9:30 am to 6:00 pm. Very quiet. Henry took exception care of us as did the chap who handled our car. Property is 4 months old. Would definitely stay in this hotel again and Sorrento is absolutely charming.

It was 3 days old when we arrived! We were the first to sleep on the beds! The hotel was AMAZING and the staff was even more AMAZING! Guilia / Antonio / Agnese were our #1 staff
