Hotel Caravel

Muy bueno el desayuno, la atencion excelente y servicio de traslado al centro de Sorrento

A friend & I spent a week at Hotel Caravel, half board, in October. We had a comfortable room, food was good & lovely staff. Fully recommended.

We had a five night stay (we booked half board with jet2). Location was great with approx 20 minute walk into Sorrento. Reception staff were excellent and help us book all our excursions which we found reasonable. The evening meals were excellent, along with the staff. Thanks to all for making us feel welcome.

We had a really lovely stay at this hotel. All the staff were excellent, we both highly recommend. Every evening plenty of choice on the menu, Anglo the head waiter, made our evenings. All staff on reception & in lounge were all very friendly and attentive. A short walk takes you to am amazing view point of the bay of Naples. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return one day soon.

The hotel is situated down a one way street but don't let that put you off. The hotel is clean, well decorated, but some of the rooms may be a bit dated. Our room was not particularly good so they changed us to another, much better and bigger. The staff are so helpful. The meals are 4 courses, which I wasn't expecting, so good and the choice is excellent, including vegetarian. It has a daily shuttle bus service into Sorrento, entertainment every evening. The restaurant staff are the best especially Angelo, who is the head waiter, he can't do enough to make sure everything is what you want, if not he will go out of his way to do another meal that you prefer. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Excellent location with only about a 30 min walk into Sorrento although the hotel offers a regular shuttle bus service during the day and evening. The rooms are very clean and comfortable and there is an ample hot and cold buffet breakfast with a 4 course evening meal which should cater for everyone's tastes enhanced by excellent service and a warm welcome every day by Angelo its Maître De. The staff throughout the hotel ensure that your stay is a pleasurable experience providing a lasting memory of an enjoyable stay.

We spent a week half board at the Hotel Caravel bringing our Italian adventure to an end. It was the perfect place to unwind after the manic time we'd had prior to arriving.

Located in Sant Agnello the hotel is about 20 minutes walk from the heart of Sorrento itself. If you don't fancy the walk the hotel provides a free shuttlebus to the main parking area every 30 minutes from 0900 and that operates for most of the day. Five minutes straight down the road take you to a fantastic viewpoint whene you can get some great pictures of Sorrento Bay and the sunsets.

We had a lovely room on the first floor with plenty of space and a good sized bathroom. It was quite light and airy with a comfortable large double bed, TV, minibar and a free safe. There was plenty of storage and hanging space and it was very clean. There were tea and coffee making facilites although we never used them. Deliberate or not, when you entered the room and turned on the power the TV came on and was on CNN in English which I thought was a nice touch. (Wifey however felt it was an annoyance as she's not a telly addict when we are away)

There was a good shower in the bathroom with both a spray and monsoon head both of which had good flow pressure. Obviously a toilet and bidet and a sink with a large mirror in front of it.

Breakfast was plentiful with a huge variety of cereals, continental and hot options. Coffee and tea are served to the table by the lovely staff who go out of their way to be as helpful as possible. Note - the coffee is proper wake up juice, you may need to add a little water if you are not so keen on the strong stuff.

Dinner is quite simply excellent. Four courses every night (if you can manage four) with a number of different options for each course. In terms of first and second plates there were no repeated dishes at all during our week there. My only disappointment was somehow I missed out on a Tiramisu. A special mention here to Angelo who was the restaurant manager and exuded charm and style, whilst all the time keeping a careful watch on everything going on. All the staff were great.

The bar is reasonably priced and there was an entertainer every night barring Sunday. The entertainers were all pretty good and not too loud either. there is a nice terrace area around the pool and two seperate roof terraces with sunbeds and a hotline to order those all important drinks. The pool itself was never that busy but was not heated. Being a bit of a wuss it took a while to get in and things definitely shrunk because of the cold! ;-)

All in all this is a great hotel in a nice location without being in the heart if the action. The staff are all very good, polite and helpful. I'd happily stay here again if we are even back in the area.

Fantastic hospitality from all staff at this hotel from the moment we arrived,

Special mention goes to Angelo and his wonderful restaurant staff who work tirelessly making sure everything is ok, also time to chat when not busy, breakfast was usually buffet style and dinner was plentiful, a 4 course meal with waiter service,

The entire hotel is kept spotlessly clean by the maids and maintenance staff,

For us the location was perfect as we don’t like to be in the resort centres,
A pleasant 20 min walk takes you to the main square , alternatively book the free shuttle , this takes just 5mins !

For anyone thinking of booking this hotel, you certainly won’t be disappointed,

We would have no hesitation in rebooking here should we return in the future,

Many thanks
Jane and Simon

We visited this lovely hotel for two weeks from 26th September, which was an excellent choice. The hotel has everything to make your stay memorable.
The hotel is in a good location, providing a free shuttle bus to Sorrento if required but was close enough to walk in - which we did several times.
Everywhere was clean and well maintained. The food was very good with plenty of choice from the 4 course menu.
All the staff were friendly and helpful with special mention to Angelo and his staff for their excellent service at all times.
We would definitely recommend this hotel and if we visit Sorrento in the future this would be our first choice.

Közel volt a tengerpart sétálva, a reggeliztető személyzet kedve.

Lovely hotel . Excellent helpful staff , food very good . Buffet breakfast , 4 course waiter served dinner . Food was fresh and hot at dinner . Only 1 criticism , coffee at breakfast undrinkable . Good small pool , with plenty of sunbeds. Added bonus was free daily shuttle service .

We had a fabulous stay at Hotel Caravel in Sant’Agnello and would definitely return. The staff were welcoming and there are too many to mention by name, suffice to say, Angeleno, Nino, Rhino and Marie.
The food was delicious, a choice of starters and then choices for two main courses and then dessert, with options of cheese & biscuits or ice cream every night. Pasta of course dominated the first main dish options with fish and meat for the second main dish. Breakfast was buffet style with plenty of choice, fresh fruit, breads, cakes, bacon, eggs and mushrooms.
The free shuttle into Sorrento was another great offer; running regularly throughout the day. You can book it the day before or on the day at reception for both trips into Sorrento and back to the hotel.
There are two supermarkets in the town about 10mins walk, as well as shops and bars. The pavements are very narrow and the main road up from the hotel is busy.
The beach club is about 10mins walk down from the hotel, and the walk is steep. The beach club is the only access to the beach so you do need to pay for sun beds but it’s worth a visit. On the way down there is the Sea Bar offering light refreshments and drinks, which we loved for a quiet lunchtime panini and drinks. We found a similar situation in Sorrento with access to the beach via beach clubs only. Sorrento is a lovely place to explore.

Second visit to this wonderful family run Hotel. We stayed for 7 nights from 20th September 2025. Rooms kept spotless by the housekeeping staff. Restaurant excellent. Where can you get these days a 4 course sit down meal served by waiting staff? The menu changed every day and the food was of good quality. Not the usual buffet self service that many hotels operate these days. A big thank you to Angelo, Maria and the rest of the Restaurant staff. The bar staff also deserve a mention. Very efficient and friendly. Nello, Giuseppe, Ibrahim and Max were great and made the best Limoncello Spritzers we drank throughout the whole holiday. The hotel runs a courtesy bus into Sorrento centre which runs every 30 minutes from 9am. The last service back 10.35pm. Alternatively it is a 20 minute walk. Have to mention Peppe the maintenance man, the hotels dogsbody. So helpful with a great sense of humour. All in all a wonderful holiday again at the Caraval and it would be our first choice if visiting Sorrento again.

Husband and I stayed for a week end of August/begining September. Hotel Caravel is a well located, beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean hotel, we found the rooms well appointed and comfortable, housekeeping staff are fantastic.
We had a very warm welcome from the night Manager, food was arranged for late evening guests which was lovely.
The restaurant is buffet breakfast with lots of choice, evening meal is a 4 course table service with lots of choice, all the meals we had were delicious. Angelo the Restaurant Manager is friendly, charming and professional, special thanks also to Nino, Rino and Sandhu. My husband celebrated his birthday whilst we were there and the staff were very thoughtful and kind in helping him celebrate.
We enjoyed the pool area which was very well maintained and pretty, there is also an outside bar/restaurant area which served light lunches.
The walk to Sorrento was beautiful but we also made use of the hotel shuttle bus which was great.
I would highly recommend Hotel Caravel for a stay, we would definitely return.

Hotel was ideally situated for Sorrento. Flat walk into town. Staff were amazing. Breakfast was all you would want
.Ate only on last night in the restaurant which was our mistake as it was the best meal. Regretted not trying it sooner

Lovely hotel,very friendly and welcoming.ideally situated for sorrento, the hotel runs a courtesy bus to sorrento. Restaurant was very good,good food and great staff
Thank you Angelo and his staff for their excellent service.
This hotel is excellent value and would recommend.

Just back from a week in this lovely gem of a hotel. All of the nice things I read, when looking at reviews before booking, are true. One of the things I would like to add, as a gluten intolerant person, is that the selection of gluten free food was extremely good. There is a separate, excellent GF menu for the evening meal as well as options on the main menu. I had a pizza for lunch in the snack bar one day and I can honestly say it was by far the best GF pizza I have ever had. Angelo the Maitre D was so welcoming, friendly and attentive and always made sure we were well looked after. Thank you Angelo. Special mention too to Nello in the restaurant who was great and taught us a new Italian word “stuzzicadente”! Also thank you to the reception team and to Gregorio, who rescued us from town in the courtesy bus, during a terrible thunderstorm, in which we had been soaked to the skin. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel for a relaxed and enjoyable holiday in Sorrento.

Very clean hotel,all staff friendly and helpful.Food in restaurant excellent,along with the service from Angelo and all of his very efficient team including Rino,Vittorio and Sandu,which made our holiday so enjoyable.

Would highly recommend Hotel Caravel to anyone & everyone! A work colleague highly recommended it to us and he wasn’t wrong. Beautifully and tastefully furnished. Super clean. Excellent food. All staff, bar, restaurant, reception, pool and even the cleaners are polite, welcoming and helpful. Super comfy beds and free mini bus is a great bonus. Will most definitely be returning next year!! Can’t wait 😊
