The stunning Casa Angelina is a rare find on the Amalfi coast; a hotel that privileges design and blends it subtly with nature’s own display through using vast windows that allow the wonderful views of sea, mountains and pure azure sky to pour in.

The Casa Angelina is simply a little gem, a very special hideaway in a part of the world that already leaves you breathless for its beauty. One of the most luxurious of Amalfi coast hotels, it balances calm with a great location; on the edge of the village of Praiano, approximately 2.5 miles (4 km) from Amalfi itself, the hotel offers a roof terrace that opens to the sky providing an unbeatable location for an evening aperativo and a top class dinner.

Italian newspapers have been raving about the quality of the cuisine here as well as praising the clean white lines of the interior decor. The hotel is surrounded by terraces of lemon trees as well as their own vegetable and fruit garden ensuring the freshest of ingredients for some wonderful Mediterranean cuisine. Many of the rooms have private terraces that look straight onto the sea in front and the isle of Capri across the gulf to the right.

The bedrooms have all mod-cons as you would expect and a predominance of white to set off that wonderful blue of the sea. Murano glass from some of Italy’s best young designers and fresh roses add a touch of class but the real beauty of these rooms is how much light they let in. You are suspended above the ocean and there’s no better decoration than that.

A choice of three swimming pools (one indoor and two on the terraces outside) could encourage you to while away some time based around the hotel though the beach down below is easily reached via the private elevator and a set of stairs. The hotel has their own boats which can take you on private trips along the coastline to visit other villages or towns or take you as far as Capri for a slightly more exclusive introduction to the island. Ravello, Positano and Amalfi are all within easy reach either by car (note that unusually for an Amalfi coast hotel, Casa Angelina has plenty of parking space) or by boat and the choice really depends on you depending on how lazy or active you want to be.

In short then, the Casa Angelina is an excellent choice if you are looking for something a little bit different on the Amalfi Coast with great details, excellent cuisine and out of this world views all set in an ambience where design and comfort take pride of place.
