Enjoying spectacular open sea views of the Gulf of Naples and the Island of Capri, with sleek and stylish white décor, colorful modern art and delicate Mediterranean cuisine, Casa Angelina is the Amalfi coast’s first real design hotel. Situated 50m above sea level and surrounded by terraces of lemon trees, Casa Angelina emerges from the rocks gleaming in bright sunlight. The unique style of this cliffhanger combines luxury and elegance with colors and forms of contemporary art and minimalist design. Light-filled bedrooms are spacious, with furnishings as contemporary as Mies and as funky as Starck, where the predominance of white creates a cool and calming vibe.

The airy living spaces provide the perfect setting for a fabulous collection of Murano glass from some of Italy’s best young designers and bold rainbow-glass sculptures from Cuban surrealist Alfredo Sosabravo. All of the rooms have fabulous views over the Gulf of Salerno. Some have private terraces or balconies that look straight onto the sea in front—perfect for cocktails and intimate dining. There are also 4 private apartments down by the sea, blending the hotel’s signature style with rustic touches (like a natural rock). Located in beautiful former fishermen’s houses the apartments come with Bang and Olufsen entertainment systems, private kitchens and patios.
Casa Angelina’s panoramic Un Piano nel Cielo restaurant offers Mediterranean gastronomy in a dramatic rooftop setting, accompanied by a superb wine list featuring all of the best Italian wines. The small Moroccan-inspired bar with a wide range of bespoke cocktails has a terrace on the cliff-edge, scattered with teak tables and umbrellas. It’s a perfect spot for a sundowner drink… or two. There’s a state-of-the-art gym and spa, indoor and outdoor small pools to choose from and a private strip of La Gavitella—a pebbly beach reachable via the hotel’s private glass lift and a set of stairs, where deck chairs and beach umbrellas await hotel guests.
Ravello, Positano, and Amalfi are all within easy reach either by car or by the hotel’s Master Angelina boat, which can take you on private trips along the coastline, or as far as the islands of Capri and Ischia.
In my opinion, the chic Casa Angelina is a rare find on Italy’s legendary Amalfi Coast—it’s like a breath of fresh air when compared to all the other, rather conservative hotels. If you are looking for something extra luxurious, then go for the fabulous Junior Suite 401, with a vast private terrace offering 180º expansive views of Positano and Capri. My second choice would be the Grand Deluxe Suite, with lovely views of Praiano from the Starck bathtub.
