Beautiful hotel. The staff is very professional and the room was exceptional. We loved the view, the amazing breakfast and the staff. The bathroom and the bath were wonderful.
The hotel is well situated on the outside of Amalfi town with good views and in a convenient location. We drove from another part of Italy and the drive was fun, although GPS isn't the best sometimes and its easy to make a wrong turn, so be prepared. The hotel is not for everyone, i would not recommend it to anyone on a budget. However, if money is not an issue for you, this is one of the better hotels. We stayed in the Villa area which is a short golf cart ride away from the hotel itself. Here you have your own private pool area. Our hot tub was not working which wasn't great, but the room was nice. Room was well stocked with welcome gifts and food/drinks and mini bar was good too. Hotel is very romantic, the restaurant is great for dinner, and the lounge before dinner and after is a great place for a drink. We would stay here again if we come to Amalfi.
This hotel was one of the most special hotels we have ever stayed in. The setting, hotel, the amenities, staff, food it was wonderful. We were so relaxed we did not want to leave. We cannot wait to come back again.
The staff and the property was amazing. Their service exceptional. Simone was very helpful and even helped plan our day out. Truly truly amazing, one of the best hotels and service we came across in Italy. Even St.Regis couldn't compare to the service here.
All I can say is WOW!! The hotel is so beautiful, tge lobbies, sitting areas in and outside, the pool, the restaurants! The gardens are beautiful, walking the garden felt like a fairyland. The staff go far and beyond excellent.
This was the most amazing hotel we have ever stayed at. Very romantic and the staff could not have been nicer or more attentive. Multiple areas to explore and take pictures. The breakfast was the most spectacular I have ever seen and the 5 course dinner was a lifetime memory. You cannot miss with this hotel.
Really great, fantastic private pool and beach, luxury and comfort room, highgrade tasty food, wonderful ocean view, pickup time of our suitcase was a little long but we will stay again.
After a long time, we experienced the timeless European Hospitality that was Attentive and Authentic. Amazingly trained staff who do their work with so much passion! The view was breath-taking and I can say that this is one of the best places to stay for a quiet wonderful vacation in Amalfi Coast. Thank you team Santa Catarina. You truly created lifetime memories for us.

We had an unforgettable stay at Hotel Santa Caterina. The property is breathtaking, perched on a cliff with panoramic Amalfi Coast views and a private elevator leading to a serene private beach.
There was a mix-up with our initial room, but the staff handled it with professionalism and quickly moved us to a beautiful Junior Suite with a stunning sea view.
Service was exceptional throughout — from the concierge to the restaurant team. Breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea was truly magical.
Once settled, our stay was flawless. Highly recommended for anyone seeking luxury, elegance, and relaxation in Amalfi. We can’t wait to return!
If you’re looking for a truly amazing luxury vacation experience, this is the place. Santa Caterina is top notch in every way. The hotel is absolutely stunning and the staff could not be more attentive. The room was absolutely beautiful. The heated, salt water pool just steps from the sea was fantastic. The breakfast had every option you could image and the service was impeccable. If I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you for a wonderful experience. This was hands down the best hotel I’ve ever stay at.
Beautiful property. Outstanding hospitality. Delicious food and drink. Exceptional. First time but not the last time. Very hard to leave. My deepest thank you’s to all the staff who made my time here the best possible experience. Grazie Mille a tutti ♥️🇮🇹🌊🥂
Bucket list property that exceeded my high expectations! Site and staff were over the top gracious and welcoming. Every level of service was impeccable. Hotel views are world class, upgrade from balcony to private terrace was so very much appreciated, the included breakfast was massive and the most extraordinary quality and quantity, the service was bot ever present and incredibly discreet. Loved our interactions with the front desk staff, who all seemed to act as concierges! Bellman fussed over every little detail to ensure our comfort in transportation needs for our luggage to and from and for our little jaunts around the corner into downtown Amalfi, or up the hill to begin the Path of the Gods. The gardens, the scents, the candlelight in the evening, the views from every secret garden and terrace, the glass elevator beckoning you to the pool below and sea beyond. Hotel Santa Caterina is everything!
The beautiful property includes a pool area with fantastic lunch and dinner restaurants, including a Michelin Star restaurant, which was terrific. We really enjoyed the property, which had a great pool and restaurant staff. However, our experiences with the front desk and concierge staff left us with a lot to be desired. The front desk staff appeared to lack any sense of organization and communication among the staff. For example, when we were checking out, we had a ferry departing from Amalfi for Capri, and they said they had arranged the luggage transportation to the port (about .8 kilometers from the hotel. At Twenty minutes before the ferry was scheduled to leave, there was no car and no communication to us on what was going on. Luckily, we found a water taxi to take us from the hotel port to the ferry port. Still, because of the time, the water taxi had to dock illegally in order for us not to miss the ferry - it was literally a "diving catch" and not a great experience. That was one example of several of the front desk/concierge not being organized or communicating effectively with guests. Would I go back? Absolutely! Beautify property! We know now that we have to arrange all our transfers despite the staff offering to do so.
The hotel is gorgeous and in a wonderful position in Amalfi. Simone at reception greeted my arrival with a lovely room upgrade. The breakfast is expansive and the dining room staff is very attentive. The cleaning staff make my room clean and sparkling everyday. The grounds are heavenly with lemons, figs, limes, and oranges growing above you.
Hotel Santa Caterina has the best of everything, the staff, service and the view is breathtaking! Me and my husband had wonderful experience and definitely coming back. They treat you like kings and queens.
