Dolce Vita Residence is a great place to stay. The unit was clean and modern with a nice balcony. Staff was very nice and helpful.
Be aware that it is a taxi ride or long walk to town on a main road. There are also many stairs down to the unit. My advice travel light!

Such a beautiful property! Located in a great place with an amazing view if you go on the rooftop patio! Room was nice and spacious. Small walk to get down to the private beach that is gorgeous. It’s a bit longer of a walk to get into town, definitely doable minus the days we arrived and left cause we were lugging large backpacks around. One thing to note is that you do not check in at the location, you check in at the Regina hotel in town before going up. We made that mistake but they do tell you. Our host was so nice and drove us up the keys… thank god because we had such a long day! Over all great experience. There is lots of stairs to climb, but you are staying in an area where everything is stairs so that makes sense. There is a jacuzzi on the roof, it is not a hot tub more like a cold tub ha ha, which would most likely be nice in the summer, but it was a bit cold when we went. Overall great experience.

The photos over sell the property. There is no beach and the area by the water is full of trash and doesn’t appear to have been serviced in years. The path to walk down is extremely overgrown.
Parking is tricky, room
Was clean, staff were nice.

Great property overlooking the sea and lemon groves. Lots of steps to get up and down but worth it.

Positives: 1. the beach that's near the hotel is nice although most of it is used up by loungers for which you have to pay between 50 and 40 euros. But the water is very nice. 2. The room was pretty clean when we checked in.
Negatives: 1. The room had ants all over the kitchen. 2. No cleaning; if you want room service/cleaning, you have to pay extra. 3. No matter how long your stay is you get 2 bathroom towels (the big ones). We stayed there for 6 nights and had to make do with 2 towels for 2 ppl for 6 nights. 4. When you shower, the water leaks all over the bathroom floor cause it's not closed. 5. To get to and from Maiori, you have to walk on a highway/road that has no sidewalk (not safe and definitely not kids friendly). 6. There is no concierge or staff on site so if you have any issues, you have to call some WhatsApp number. On the last night, there were a couple of people screaming at 3am for about an hour (and what seemed like moving their furniture in the room right above ours) and we had to suffer through that without being able to call the front desk to ask them to deal with it. So it can be quite noisy depending on who else is staying there. We'd give it 3/5; if it weren't for the beach, we'd give it 2/5. If you have kids, we'd suggest booking somewhere else unless you are planning to stay in the residence the whole time and not go to the city.

The hotel is more like condos, with kitchenette and there is no daily cleaning. The units are nice and roomy.
There are a lot of stairs, we had to go up and down about 10 flights of stairs each time to arrive and leave the hotel. Walkable to the Centro in about 15 minutes but you have to walk along the road which is on cliffs.
There is a beach at the hotel, but the majority is private (have to pay to rent chairs and umbrella). The public beach is tiny.

The private beach, the views, it has car park, the attention of the staff, the location in Maiori which is not as crowded in Amalfi, made a great family holiday.

Please do not stay there if you want a relaxing holiday. Bugs all over the place, no pillows, no shuttle service, you have to walk uphill to get to the hotel. They charge you extra if you want to change towels. When u shower the water ends up flooding the floor. They don’t clean your room ever, if you want to get it cleaned you have to pay extra. There is no staff on the property whatsoever, so if you have any problem you’re on your own. There is no way to call the front desk either, there is a phone but it does not work. On top of that they charged us DOUBLE for the stay, and I have to deal with this now, not sure if they will return the money, this people don’t care about any of your concerns apparently

Good points:
Clean, comfortable, spacious apartment in quiet location, with kitchen, balcony and sun deck.
Walking distance from semi-private cove and local resort, with good choice of restaurants, supermarkets, bars, gelato, beach, boat trips, etc.
Effective air-conditioning and good showers.
Bad points:
‘Outdoor pool’ is a COLD-water jacuzzi. Gets tepid by end of day from sun if you’re lucky.
Parking inconvenient (either pay 20 Euro per night and wait for your car to be driven several km by staff, find paid parking in town and walk up the hill to the apartment or negotiate a space at restaurant opposite).
Semi-private cove below apartment is full of litter and mainly pebbles, with some black sand. Steps down to cove fairly overgrown and messy.
Local cat makes itself at home - may affect anyone with allergy.
Overall:
Good value and a fairly pleasant base from which to explore the Amalfi coastline.

Have to say accommodation was better than we were expecting. Of course though as Amalfi coast the stairs and heavy luggage were a bit of an issue, next time we will travel more lightly. Would be nice if area going down to beach was cleaned up some, but assume that area is accessible to more that just these residences. We had a great stay

This place was not up to par whatsoever, however it was an ok (questionable “ok”) price given the location and time of year. In the very last apartment down the stairs so was a hike to get back up and into the town(, but I had expected this from other reviews). Room was not cleaned during our stay and we were 3. It was somewhat strange as we did see the cleaner at other apartments. No towel replacement. No shower curtain so it looked like a tsunami hit even if you had taken a 2 minute shower. Ants everywhere, however they were everywhere in general during our time there and I know they can be difficult to control. Pillows were as flat as pancakes. One upside was the view. Definitely would not have thought it was worth it if it wasn’t in the Amalfi Coast

I spent six very relaxing nights at the Dolce Vita residence, and really can't recommend highly enough. The apartments are modern and well maintained, it's in a very peaceful location just outside Maiori and if you're looking for somewhere that offers some independence and tranquility but a short walk from bars restaurants shops and what not then the Dolce Vita is for you.
Things to know:
1 the rooms aren't cleaned daily but will be pristine when you arrive with enough towels etc for your stay.
2. it is a short walk (5-10 minutes) from Maiori to the residence, and largely uphill but is easily doable, at night one small section of the road is quite dark but I wouldn't let that put you off
3. the kitchen area is small but the stove and fridge are pristine and there are enough utensils and crockery for you to look after yourself quite easily comma tip take a corkscrew though that's the one thing that was missing!
4. there isn't a reception desk on site so I think for the most part check-in has to be done at the Regina Palace hotel in Maiori; if you're arriving by car I'd recommend popping in there or at least contacting the residence before you travel to make sure that you are in the right place (you wouldn't want to have to walk with your cases and back especially if it was either bad weather or very warm and sunny.) Once you have your key card be aware you don't have to put the key in the actual door or press the handle but just swipe it over the pad next to the door

Too far to check in at maiori, bed not comfortable.

Very clean, very good view. The description was fairly accurate, I booked a "two bedroom" place, but it ended up being a 1 bedroom with a sofa bed in the main room. We knew we would have to walk on the road and up some stairs, but it wasn't really that bad. Check-in was annoying because they don't give you any help getting to the place or even offer a shuttle (we were willing to pay). Overall it is a great value for the price. All they would have to do for 5 stars is simplify the check-in experience and not lie about the bedrooms

The Apartment is out of town slightly but just of one of the windy Amalfi roads so not great for walking to and from with cars tightly driving past.
My main issue was not location though, it was the small studio box room that we were staying in with a fold down bed that had the worst mattress i have ever stayed on with it. It was like sleeping on rough concrete and meant neither me nor my friend slept. The hotel looking after the apartment bookings did respond well when I complained and moved us to another apartment but the beds were still very poor. Credit to the hotel though for their attempts to resolve this.
My only other issue was that it wasnt clear that the check in for the apartment was to be done at a hotel in the centre of Maori so I arrived at the apartment (15 min walk away) with 3 suitcases of luggage to find out that we needed to head back to the town to check in. again I would credit the hotel who sent a porter on a moped to drive one of us back to check in and then dropped me back off.
I wouldnt stay here again due to the comfort levels but would stay in the sister hotel.
