Ara Maris Hotel & Spa

Exceptionally clean, brand new, beautifully finished and sparkly!

We stayed at Ara Maris for 3 nights with a friend, and honestly, it was far too short – we didn’t want to leave! The hotel is beautiful, cozy, and located in a perfect spot to explore Sorrento and the surrounding areas.

From the moment we arrived, the staff were exceptional – warm, helpful, and genuinely kind. A special thank you to Giulia at the concierge – she went above and beyond to help us make the most of our short stay. Thanks to her, we had an amazing tour and a car arranged to take us along the stunning Amalfi coast. That experience alone was unforgettable!

The rooftop bar and restaurant is truly something special – not just for the views, but the whole atmosphere, service, and absolutely delicious food. It was one of the highlights of our stay.

We also really enjoyed the breakfast, which had a great variety and was served by such lovely staff. Everyone we interacted with made us feel truly welcome.

If I had to say one “negative,” it’s only that three days were not enough. We’re already dreaming about coming back for a longer stay. Highly recommended!

A fantastic hotel set in the heart of Sorrento. We were warmly welcomed by all the staff and made to feel very special. The hotel is modern and very comfortable with a very nice pool area (sadly too cold to use at this time of year). We stayed for the NY celebrations which were great fun, amazing food and great entertainment.
Our room was great, so many times when we travel there is never enough storage space eg wardrobes/ drawers etc, this was probably one of the best appointed rooms we have stayed in. More importantly very comfortable. We would not hesitate to stay again. Highly recommended.

Unbelievable Hotel, the staff are fantastic. We arrived early evening to be greeted by the great reception team and offered a welcome drink, which we declined due to our late arrival. We were swiftly shown to our room and we were shown the room and working of controls. our bags were delivered by the porter and we didn’t have time to unpack before housekeeping arrived to ensure that everything was as expected.
We dined that evening and the food is devine. Yes it does come at a cost but it is worth the money.
The rooms are brilliant. The staff fantastic and so friendly. The detail is on point. The views from the rooftop bar amazing .
It was my wife’s 50th birthday and they made a bespoke cake at our last breakfast for her - we hadn’t mentioned it was her birthday. This had been picked up by the staff. We were genuinely touched by the gesture.
Arrivederci. We will return and can’t wait to try the pool in May! merry Xmas to you all Chris & Liz

The property is really modern with top of the art amenities (rooms in AC, modern lighting, blaconies etc), it also has a great location and the staff is so helpful! Not only do they make you feel very welcome and relaxed but their concierge and service is top notch

The Ara Maris is the perfect hotel for your stay in Sorrento. The property is stunning, rooms are well appointed, spacious & comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful with great variety. The staff is warm, welcoming and helpful. Guisy, Valentino, Gianluca & Niccolo were fantastic hosts.

Ubicación, limpieza, servicios y personal de 10. Tuvimos un error nuestro con la reserva e hicieron todo lo posible para compensarlo. Lo agradecimos mucho. El servicio de transfer hasta el puerto para coger el ferry a Capri, nos pareció todo un acierto y el gimnasio y las instalaciones de todo en general, super bien. Muy buena opción para alojarse en Sorrento.

The hotel was very average - very very expensive for just ‘okay’. We had issue with cleanliness, noise in rooms and aircon was not working. Management were not helpful. Was average and would expect more from 5 star. We stayed for five nights and found the service and breakfast average also. Rooms very small.

I am unsure as to why this review keeps being removed. I have booking information and proof of our stay - I am happy to provide this to TripAdvisor if helpful.

Great location, exceptional staff

Fantastic customer service. Welcomed with a drink, bags taken up to room and a personal tour of the hotel and our smart room. Very clean room and wonderful breakfast. We had such a wonderful view and relaxing vacation.

Tutti

Exceptional location. We had a room with a sea view. Every stuff we interacted with were super friendly, warm, and welcoming. This is what a first class hotel should be.

Very friendly staff
Nice location with a view

Location location location. The view from their Sky Lounge was magical.

Brand new hotel, right near main square and train station. Staff very friendly and helpful

We spent three amazing nights at the Ara Maris for a birthday weekend away. The hotel is in a perfect location for exploring Sorrento and has lovely decor throughout. All the staff were helpful, attentive and polite and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Special touches to celebrate my husbands birthday were organised and we had welcome drinks on arrival as well as been shown around our room on arrival to make sure we were happy with everything.
The food at breakfast was delicious and there was a good variety to choose from.
We enjoyed a couple of visits to the spa which was lovely and relaxing and included as part of our stay. The roof top bar was particularly special and had great views across Sorrento.
We would definitely visit again and can’t fault anything at the hotel. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
