Amalfiküste und Hotel Cetus = Beste Wahl
Pros:

Die Lage ist unbeschreiblich. Alle Zimmer haben einen großen Balkon und Blick aufs Meer.
Tolle Küche im Restaurant und ein abwechslungsreiches Frühstück 🤩

Cons:

Ganz kurze Stresssituation bei der Ankunft, weil es kaum Parkplätze gibt. Bedenken lösten sich in Luft auf, als der Herr vom Parkservice des Hotels, nach dem Ausladen der Koffer, den Wagen um parkte

Cannot wait to return some day!
Pros:

This hotel is stunning! It is embedded in the side of a cliff above the sea. The room was spacious and bright, but the best part was the terrace with some cover from the sun and lots of space to take in the sun and the sea, with loungers, a table and chairs. The private beach was perfect, breakfast plentiful and fresh, the restaurant delicious, the bar convenient. The best part however was the staff! The reception staff who assist with EVERY need, the breakfast staff, the bartenders, the restaurant staff, every one of them professional and friendly and helpful with any issue or question. Perfect place.

Cons:

Walking to any other location than on property is only possible by walking on the road, which is narrow with no sidewalk with lots of traffic. To mitigate this, the hotel works with a shuttle service that is professional, quick to respond and reasonable cost.

Un séjour inoubliable, aussi beau qu'agréable.
Pros:

Vue. Le carrelage magnifique. La restauration et le petit déjeuner formidables !!!
La propreté. Le confort. La beauté de l'hôtel. L'accès à la plage. L'amabilité du personnel. Bravo ! Nous avons été enchantés !

Cons:

Une 2ème porte entre la chambre et la salle de bain aurait permis de limiter les bruits venant du couloir. C'est le seul "défaut" de cet hôtel merveilleux, bien compensé par tout le reste !
