Room was nice. It has a nice terrace, however, the separation with the next room is not that great and you can hear the room neighbour’s noise.

We absolutely loved our stay here, we only stayed for one night but the b&b was lovely, very traditional & the hosts couldn’t have been nicer.
The hotel itself was initially a bit tricky to find but once there it is easy to get around & only about 15 walk between either Ravello or Minori so was perfect place to explore. Also, the balcony & view were amazing

A nice peaceful area, a bit remote but that's not necessarily a problem. Great view towards Minori. Some fine home-cooked cake for breakfast. Lack of air conditioning was a minor issue, but it didn't get crazy hot in early July.

This place is quaint. The owner is a little old lady that baked us fresh coffee cake every morning for breakfast. She is very friendly but speaks no English, so her son helped us at check in. The view is wonderful.
The main downside is that the place is almost impossible to find, even with a GPS. There is a very narrow road leading to it, so you need a very small car.

The location is superb, the bed is extremely comfy, breakfast is amazing and the host goes above and beyond to help you enjoy your stay. She often dropped us off into the square so we didn’t have to walk up the steep hill. 5/5 for this location!

I cannot say enough about this B&B. My husband and I traveled around Italy for our honeymoon and this was our favorite place to stay! From the moment we checked in we felt right at home. Marie and her son greeted up with fresh lemonade on their beautiful terrace that overlooked the mountains and the sea. But the magic began when we entered our own room. It was beyond clean and charming. To make it even better we had a private terrace that overlooked the most beautiful view and Marie made us a homemade tiramisu to celebrate our honeymoon. It was a great location for visiting Ravello but having some privacy in a quiet area. Sunrise views in the mountains and then at night the music from the Minori below and Ravello above carries to the terrace - so romantic! We loved everything about our stay and cannot recommend it enough!

Though we enjoyed our stay thanks to an amazing host Anna, the B&B is a bit isolated. It is a quite a bit of a hike to any restaurants or the town center. Also the taxis will not come in all the way since the road near the property is narrow. Even if you get dropped closest to the property there is another 90 steps you have to climb. Definitely not recommended for people who can not move around easily. The view from the property is breathtakingly beautiful. Anna provides ample breakfast including fresh figs from her trees! Yummy! She does not speak any English but I used an app to translate from English to Italian and had no problem communicating. Anna’s sweet nature made our stay enjoyable :)) She is a sweetheart!

It's so far out...it's a trek to go up there with the car...it's also hard to reach by foot once you got there

What a great place, the villa was a lovely old house, modernised, yet charming. Lots of steps to & from, but the walk up was lined with beautiful plants and shrubs, and loads of pot plants
Terraced farming all around, loads of lemon trees. And the views, just breath taking. We overlooked the valley, and the bay, just beautiful.
Our room was very clean, comfortable, and en suite with lovely hot shower
Breakfast every morning was a treat with our host, Anna. Homemade jams, and bread, with perfect cappuccinos! I must admit we did not do it justice. Such a lovely place to explore Ravello and Amalfi from. Our host left a few local takeaway pamphlets around, and they even delivered. The local area was great to explore, beware of the very narrow, twisty roads though! We really enjoyed ourselves, and our lovely refuge was just what we needed after hustle & bustle of our busy lives. And near enough to the main square, nearby restaurants and bars.

Beautiful location, with a spectacular view. A little off the beaten track but a great place to relax. Breakfast is good and the owner is extremely friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended.

We enjoyed our stay at Il Refugio del Poeta. It was very clean, quiet and we had a beautiful view of the coast from our private balcony. Anna provided us with a delicious breakfast. We especially enjoyed the homemade cake & jams. The B&B is about a 20min walk/stair climb from the city centre. Very cute town to explore.

Valerio and his mom were very kind hosts, offering us delicious pear lemon cake and limoncello on arrival. It was really really good. Because it was a long way up and down by stairs with luggage, Valerio came to pick us up and bring us to the bus stop the next morning. It was a clean place and a nice view, but note that there is no air conditioning and it is quite away from the town by foot. I would suggest Ravello as a day trip from somewhere else.

Great place very close to the old center. Donatello spoke great English and was a terrific host. The room had a very nice balcony and great air conditioning - everything that you would want in a B&B. The kitchen had breakfast items and good coffee.

We loved our stay with Anna who warmly looked after us. The B&B has unbeatable views from the private terrace. Ravello is the nicest most unspoilt town on Amalfi, we found the other towns too touristy.

We were frustrated finding the place, but helpful locals kept pointing us in the right direction. As town is not handy, best to take extra food if needed. Our host was very obliging and made us an excellent supper which we had to insist she accept payment. Very obliging although communication due to our lack of Italian a little difficult, but fun enough anyway!

Amazing place to stay, Anne, the owner, is the "Nona" everyone would like to have! The hospitality is amazing (as were her homemade cakes), we felt at home! Must have your own transport, but its worth it. Great views, very clean and not far from city center. Must visit for the true Ravello experience.

Although the owner of the B&B was so sweet, she did not speak 1 word of English so we had to communicate through hand gestures. Breakfast was a lovely setup on her balcony with a great view - she baked a fresh cake each morning and also provided yogurts, pastries, coffee, and juice. The location of the place is not ideal - it is hundreds of steps up to the town. We did the walk once and refused to do it again and we are young and fairly active people. Even from the road just to get up to the B&B, there were several steps to walk up with luggage which was very difficult. The room was very clean, good size, with a wonderful, large terrace with great views of the sea. The bed was our only complaint with the room, as we could feel the springs of the bed digging into our backs and woke up very sore both mornings.
