Choose to take breakfast either in the dining room or garden. After breakfast, why not retire to the roof garden, lie back with a good book on the sun terrace or retreat to the shade of the fragrant garden while enjoying breathtaking views of the Bay of Naples. The hydromassage pool is also a perfect way to float away any stresses and there’s a massage corner for some extra pampering.

The sun-drenched terraces are the perfect place to soak up the views or enjoy an indulgent nap. The panoramic terrace at La Veranda dei Sapori restaurant offers an incredible setting for mouth-watering meals that make use of the island’s natural resources such as creamy mozzarella, tomatoes, olive oil and basil.

Ideally located near the island’s main port, this classic hotel – once a nobleman’s residence – offers a peaceful retreat close to the town centre. Surrounded by pine trees, shrubs and flower-filled Mediterranean gardens, the hotel has a relaxed ambience with plenty of space to unwind. Enjoy fresh fruit and cocktails by the pool, settle into one of the freestanding garden hammocks with a good book, or follow the path through the gardens and cross a side road to the hotel’s small private beach to swim in the clear waters. The Roman-style thermal spa showcases the island’s healing waters and therapeutic treatments. Soak in the thermal waters of the indoor pool and let the invigorating underwater jets and waterfalls soothe any aching muscles.

Wind down in the evening with some live music and cocktails at the piano bar. The Standard Double Rooms with Balcony are cosy and overlook the gardens.

This classic family-owned hotel overlooks Ischia’s largest beach and has one of the best locations on the island. Its quiet south coast setting is perfect for a relaxing escape and with such welcoming staff and excellent wellness facilities it’s no wonder that guests return here time and time again.

Spa fans are in for a real treat as all guests have complimentary access to the indoor wellness area which makes the most of Ischia’s natural resources. In the two thermal pools you can let the invigorating hydromassage jets pummel your aching muscles or experience the benefits of reflexology by walking through the Kneipp circuit. If you prefer to experience the healing properties of seawater then the beach is just steps away. Feel the coarse volcanic sand exfoliate your feet as you walk into the water or flop on a sun lounger under a parasol. With the beach so tantalisingly close, a quick dip in the sea before breakfast is a refreshing way to start your day. The restaurant offers buffets with dishes inspired by traditional Mediterranean cooking, such as Neapolitan ragout and local produce including juicy tomatoes and other vegetables from the hotel’s organic garden, home-made jam made with fruit from the orchard, and fresh fish. Enjoy low-key evenings with lounge music in the bar or head out to the terrace to watch the sun set while sipping prosecco or an after-dinner limoncello. The rooms are warmly furnished with hand-painted tiles and carved beech wood furniture. Standard Rooms overlook the terrace or gardens and you can upgrade to a room with a balcony. For sea views, opt for one of the spacious Superior Rooms which overlook beautiful Maronti Bay.
This boutique hotel sits in gorgeous sea view gardens, just a short walk from Capri’s famous Piazzetta and the botanical Augustus Gardens. Intimate and homely, La Floridiana’s design is typical of a classic Capri villa – a simple yet chic décor combines with a charming and bright interior, and there’s lovely ocean views from the many private outdoor terrace areas. While the quieter setting is perfect for a relaxing break, the hotel is also a great base to explore some of Capri’s most scenic spots. The beautiful bay of Marina Piccola is mere minutes away, a pretty and popular area where you can spot the dramatic rock formations of Faraglioni. You’re also just a five-minute drive from the port, so it’s very easy to reach Sorrento if you feel like a day on the mainland. If an afternoon of sunbathing is too enticing, then the hotel has a fabulous outdoor pool, where you can bask in glorious ocean views as you swim off that intense Italian heat. Or you could head to the shaded poolside bar for a cooling fruit juice or refreshing cocktail. While’s there no restaurant on site, a tasty breakfast buffet in the main hall is included during your stay. The pool terrace also serves light lunches and dinners from April to September, which is normally a delicious selection of hot and cold dishes influenced by the local Caprese fare. Rooms are simple yet tastefully decorated in a classic Mediterranean style. White-washed walls flood the rooms with light, while majolica tiles add a touch of authenticity to the design. Looking out to hypnotic ocean views, Superior Rooms have a small furnished terrace which, if pre-arranged, can be the setting for a romantic candlelit dinner. Junior Suites are much more spacious and refined, with a larger private balcony and an indulgent hydromassage spa bath.
One of Italy’s best-kept secrets, the former fishing village of Sant’Angelo can be found on the volcanic island of Ischia, squaring up to the island of Capri across the Gulf of Naples in all its colourful glory. Set on the southern slopes, this tiny village brings charm by the bucketload – a cluster of white-washed houses with brightly painted doors tumbling down to the bay below, where beaches are dotted along the coastline. On the very edge of the water, Miramare Sea Resort & Spa is in one of the most picturesque locations here, with incredible sea views at every turn – from the boutique-style rooms and suites, the bay-view bar terrace, and the indoor-outdoor restaurant. Behind its colourful façade, interiors are minimalist-chic with Mediterranean flair – think white-washed walls, patterned tiled floors and a handful of potted plants. Taking advantage of its volcanic setting, Thermal Park Aphrodite Apollon is home to eight thermal pools and a natural sauna set in a grotto, while the treatment menu incorporates mineral-rich ingredients into its massages, facials and body therapies – be sure to try the mud therapy to really feel the skin-softening effects. Spend your days people-watching in traditional town squares, espresso in hand, before returning to take a dip off The Rock, an elevated stone-hewn platform topped with deckchairs – the direct sea access and views over Capri from this secluded spot are worth the stairs. There’s a private beach with sunbeds, deckchairs and umbrellas, too. All of the rooms overlook the bay of Maronti, but Superior Rooms come with custom-designed furniture and more generous proportions. The even larger Deluxe Rooms are finished with classic tiled floors, while Junior Suites open onto an outdoor relaxation area.
