Relais Maresca

An introduction to Relais Maresca

Locations don't come much better than this. You'll find this hotel right on the waterfront of Marina Grande, Capri's gorgeous harbour, gazing serenely out on a sea so blue you'll need your sunglasses on just to look at it. The beach is mere footsteps away, and the sleek boutiques of Capri Town are a simple 5 minute funicular ride away. The hotel itself is a small, elegant little number. Rooms are really well decked out, with sunny Vietri ceramics bringing a splash of colour to your surroundings. There are extra little touches, too, like top quality 'Frette' towels and bathrobes, which show this hotel is something special. Head up to the fourth floor and you'll find a gorgeous rooftop terrace dotted with sunloungers and parasols where you can soak up all that Italian sunshine. There's a restaurant up there, too, which serves up great views of the Gulf of Naples with your food. Get stuck into a plate of fresh pasta as you look out towards majestic Mount Vesuvius. Of course, being so close to the port, you're ideally situated for trips over to the mainland where gems like Amalfi, Positano and Sorrento await. When you're not sipping sunset cocktails up on the roof, take time out for coffee in the bar on the ground floor. There's a room for reading or watching TV here as well, ideal if you want to grab a little quiet time to yourself. As for the staff, nothing's too much trouble. They'll gladly point you in the direction of the island's most famous beauty spots as well as the lesser-known treasures. And they'll even help you arrange things like watersports or book a restaurant for you. All in all, this hotel is a chic little retreat – and what could be better for an isle with as much style as Capri?
