Old world charm and beautiful setting. Room upstairs from reception area could use refreshing.
Pros:

a beautiful property with a great view from dining room and terrace ( for restaurant); Wonderful breakfast selection with fresh produce from their expansive gardens.

Cons:

Overall an excellent stay
Pros:

Great staff - extremely friendly and helpful.
Great location - close to everything we wanted to be close to.
Great restaurant - Francesco A was an especially fiendly and enthusiastic member of staff.

Cons:

There were many noisy and disruptive wedding guests. 3 nights out of the 6 were disrupted by other guests snashing around, shouting, at 12-3 in the morning.
The only other negative was that we had no coffee or milk in the room. We had instructions for how to use a coffee machine, but no coffee machine. And we had English breakfast tea, but no milk. So overall, no way to make any morning drinks.

Magical place!
Pros:

Beautiful covered dining with a gorgeous view! Great friendly staff, helpful front desk, excellent breakfast buffet! The room was clean and the Air Conditioning worked great.

Cons:

There are a lot of steps in Ravello in general, if you want fewer steps and closer access to pool stay at their sister property, but I was very happy at Villa Maria!

Just the most perfect place to unwind for a few days. Please don't change anything!
Pros:

This is an outstanding hotel that far exceeded expectations. We have stayed in Ravello and the Amalfi coast over the years in a variety of places from budget to 5 star (Palazzo Avino). Villa Maria is head and shoulders above the competition. The setting, view, ambience, restaurant and outstanding service from staff are all 10/10. We felt like we had "come home" from the moment we arrived, with such warmth and hospitality from all the staff. The menu and wine list are also outstanding, but they also have some less expensive items too, so you could have say a 4 course fine dining outstanding formal meal (with a fabulous wine list the size of a mediaeval bible) at over 100 euros each, or a caesar salad for 20 euros. We made the mistake one evening of dining at Palazzo Avino (having stayed there 15 years ago when it was Palazzo Sasso). We found that to be a distinctly underwhelming experience by comparison with its former self from the Palazzo Sasso era. Poor quality food masquerading as michelin-starred nouvelle cuisine, service was good but formulaic and without the warmth and charm of Villa Maria, and vastly overpriced.

Cons:

I genuinely cannot fault this hotel. I suppose if I had to criticise I would say that when booking online I had not appreciated that the swimming pool was not actually at the hotel, but at the sister hotel Giordano which is a few minutes walk down a hill. If you are holidaying with children and want to be in and out of the pool all day then Giordano would be a better choice perhaps.

Superb
Pros:

Mi-a placut foarte mult sejurul la Villa Maria. Am avut o camera cu acces direct la jacuzzi si a fost minunat totul: camera spatioasa, patul confortabil, curatenie, personalul este foarte bine pregatit si foarte amabili cu totii.
Am mancat foarte bine la restaurant, atat micul dejun cat si pranzul, avand jn view fantastic.

Cons:

Izolarea fonica destul de slaba.
