WHAT'S INCLUDED?
Hotel highlights
Sorrento's dazzling coastline has long inspired artists both past and present. And with a rooftop lounge bar with a prime view over the Bay of Naples, a stay at Ara Maris buys you a front row seat to some of the best views in southwestern Italy.
When we say this five-star boutique is in the heart of Sorrento, we mean it. Piazza Tasso – the town’s main square, and a place where historic churches rub shoulders with trendy cafés – is mere steps away from the front door.
Cora Restaurant evokes an irresistable sense of time and place, boasting a menu that's taken the timeless flavours of Mediterranean cuisine and added an extra twist of finesse. Enjoy dishes prepared with the freshest seasonal ingredients, served in either the contemporary dining room or surrounded by the beauty of the hotel’s gardens.
Lunchtimes, meanwhile, are reserved for the more easy-going, but no less delicious, cuisine of Cora Bistrot. This poolside summer hangout deals in superior snacks such as lobster rolls, prime beef burgers, and comforting pasta courses.
Every inch of Thala Spa at Ara Maris is dedicated to wellness and regeneration. That extends to its interiors, which blend soft lighting, atmospheric music, and soothing fragrances that linger softly in the air.
Cleanse your mind and body at the Turkish hammam, slowly sink into the bubbling waters of the hydro pool, or turn up the heat in the Finnish Sauna. And for the ultimate pampering experience, book in for a massage and relax as any tension simply melts away.
Decadent evenings of cocktails and gourmet tapas, best enjoyed while gazing out across the Bay of Napes at the hotel's panoramic rooftop bar, Lumi Sky Lounge.
The pool and garden area is a few notches above your average hotel pool scene. A terrace with extra-comfy loungers only sweetens the deal.
The rooms here are, quite simply, exceptional. Look forward to sleek modern interiors, luxurious amenities, and complimentary beach bags and flip-flops.
