A vibey five-star clifftop retreat
This luxurious seaside retreat, designed by modernist icon Gio Ponti – one of Italy’s most influential 20th century architects – combines modern elegance with historic charm. Perched on a cliff overlooking the stunning Bay of Naples, this hotel offers incredible views of the Mediterranean Sea and the iconic Mount Vesuvius. Its prime location makes it an excellent base for exploring nearby Sorrento, the Amalfi Coast, the ruins of Pompeii, and the picturesque island of Capri.
The rooms at Parco Dei Principi are beautifully appointed, featuring contemporary ’60s design with classic Italian touches, including blue tiled flooring. The comfortable beds and unique, stylish décor makes for a restful and enjoyable stay. Each room is equipped with modern amenities, including air conditioning, free wi-fi, flatscreen TVs, a luxury bathroom, and private balconies, many of which have panoramic sea views.
With its own three-hectare park, the hotel has extensive gardens filled with rare tropical plants and shrubs. The outdoor saltwater swimming pool is surrounded by lush greenery and offers stunning sea views, making it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. For those looking to stay active, the hotel offers a fitness centre, and there’s a private beach with direct access to the sea, so you can swim in the bay.
When you’ve worked up an appetite, the beachside Poggio Siracusa restaurant serves up pizza and seafood specialities, while at Giò Ponti, you can feast on gourmet food on the wide terrace looking out to sea. The breakfast buffet includes smoked salmon, fresh local ricotta and mozzarella, eggs and bacon, among other delights. Snacks are available throughout the day at the pool bar and drinks are served in the Blu Bar, which features intricate ceramic work by Fausto Melotti. It’s five-star, and it’s glorious.
