We had an amazing time here! The staff were lovely and they were kind enough to upgrade our room! The area around the hotel has a few restaurants. It’s a great place to stay for a few nights and the breakfast was fabulous.

Great hotel not easy to get to and from

Gorgeous location between two giant rocks on a small beach with clear water. Staff are very helpful & friendly. Room was spacious.

My stay was wonderful. The property was great and staff were very friendly. The only draw back for me, was when I booked a shuttle service through the hotel for my next destination I was quoted 130 Euro. When I arrive at my destination the driver insisted that it is in fact 180 Euro. I was really disappointed to have ended my trip that way.

Room was clean & a fabulous location. Sun beds overpriced. Restaurants surrounding hotel also good. VIP BENEFITS not offered. Receptionist was very aloof & rude. But apart from that we enjoyed our stay.

Adorable setting, memorable experience with the incredible staff! Loved it, stop here and soak up life.

The location is the most unique aspect of this property. To be clear, the beach is not private to guests of this hotel, it is shared with the public and other hotels in the area. While it's beautiful, it is pretty crowded for a small beach, and there is tons of boat traffic.Our room was sufficient, with a great view, however it was pretty dirty, they did clean it again after we asked, but it was a bit disappointing.Staff was perfectly "nice" but they wouldn't go out of their way for us. They never even asked us how are stay was.

Our stay was very unpleasant. We checked in at 1:45 and were told that our room was not ready, we had to wait at the beach. We were were not clearly told that part of the beach was not for hotel guest, we had to sit on the rocks with our bags. When I used the restroom that was next to the restaurant it was dirty and smelled. That was the reason we did not eat there. Room was very dated, old and did not smell well. Bed was very hard and there was no blanket on it. AIR CONDITIONER DID NOT WORK. We requested a manager to take a look at it, she pressed few buttons and it worked for about 10 minutes, and shut off. Room was very hot, by the time we were ready to go to bed, no one was at the front desk to help us. We did not sleep at all. Breakfast was brought to our room the night before as we had to leave early. Stale bread, ONE egg and box of Corn Flakes. I will leave it at that! Beach was nice, but small, barely any room to sit down. Overall horrible stay!.

The location is great, very close and walkable to Africana night club. The hotel was amazing and clean! The view is amazing! The restaurant at the hotel was delicious and so was breakfast! I like that they reserve the beach chairs for hotel guests, but they are $20 each, which wasn’t worth it for us because we only had 2 hours. Also, the hotel has onsite parking which is extremely rare for the the coast! Highly recommend!

The hotel is a no frills establishment. The rooms are basic and clean with a mini fridge but not stocked. There is no room service. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The food served at the hotel is on par with the other restaurants around. However I did notice that the guests weren't hurried and stayed open longer than the other restaurants. It has to be the best located hotel as it's right on the beach and no need to walk up and down a million stairs to get to the beach. You basically walk from your hotel onto the beach. There is a jetty where you can take water taxes to elsewhere on the Amalfi coast. I would suggest that they get a golf cart to take guests up to the main road to get taxis elsewhere

Our trip was amazing! We loved room 7 with a balcony and view of the ocean and grotto. When the noise from the cafes and visitors got a little loud, we closed the beautiful doors and the AC workes beautifully! Our favorite trip so far. Steps to the beach, wonderful restaurants and hearty breakfast with a beautiful view.

A great little hotel, right on the small breach of Praiano. The room was clean and large.

Great view, wonderful food. The front desk personal were excellent.

The location is excellent as most of the Amalfi coast is too crowded. This little bay of Praia is right next to Praiano (easy walking distance or ample parking if using car) but it is not so crowded; and it is so picturesque with protected swimming. The staff was very helpful and welcoming; most of our contact was with Sophia and she was wonderful. The room was older but very comfortable and spacious; everything worked and we had a beautiful view of the bay. There are a number of great restaurants right there and others in easy walking distance. Breakfasts at Alfonso were delicious with a balanced variety and excellent service. We especially loved the restaurant next to our hotel, Donna Clelia Bar Mare: delicious food and the best service (owner, Salvatore, made us so welcome).

We loved the location, amazing views and great breakfast. Very friendly staff.

We were not informed about the price of parking prior to our arrival. The staff where argumentative and rude when I asked why they were charging us and why is wasn’t in the Itinarary that was sent to me when booking. On check out i was informed that the room was not paid for disputed me clicking pay now on the Expedia site and seeing money come out of my account from the hotel. To say I’m not happy is an understatement

Location is great. Marina di Praia has four restaurants right in the harbor, plus another handful in east Praiano within easy walking distance -- right along the romantic walk carved into the cliffs. The beach at the marina is great for wading / swimming, and youll find other sundecks and places to sunbathe / jump into the water from the cliffs right by the hotel. Boat trips and taxis can be easily arranged from stands leading up to the dock.As far as the hotel itself, it is convenient that they own half the beach chairs, so all can be charged to your room at a reduced rate. (Same with the restaurant across the marina, also owned by Alfonso -- which we recommend for easy lunches, but try the other nearby spots for dinner.) The junior suite is gorgeous; it has a ton of space, waterfall shower, and perfect balcony view. Not sure what the other rooms look like, but seemed like theyd be much smaller. For better or worse, Alfonso a Mare definitely has a family-owned vibe.In all, east Praiano was charming; Marina di Praia was the where the action was, thanks to the beach and boat options; and the hotel itself seemed the most convenient by far in the area. Only look elsewhere if you want to be removed from Praiano itself, and would prefer to stay primarily at your hotel somewhere higher in the cliffs.

Great location, good food, clean rooms, and friendly staff!

The views from this beach hotel are amazing. Swimming from this hotel is amazing. close to amalfi and sorrento.

Hotel is remote however staff were very friendly. Great if you want to be away from hustle and bustle of Amalfi Coast
