Italy
Amalfi Coast
Positano, Ravello, Amalfi: cliffs over the sea, giant lemons and Italian dolce vita.
The Amalfi Coast is the absolute symbol of Italian romance in the world. Cliffs plunging into the Tyrrhenian Sea, villages clinging to rock faces, the sharp scent of giant lemons, the sound of waves against limestone. It is one of those places that seems impossible until you experience it.
Positano is the most photographed, Ravello the most elevated (literally: it is suspended 350 metres above the sea), Amalfi the most historical. Each village has its own romantic personality. The best hotels on the Coast occupy historic villas intelligently transformed, where rooms and suites open onto panoramic terraces that take your breath away.
