An Italian masterpiece overlooking the Bay of Naples

Chic modernity meets five-star Italian elegance at this beautifully presented boutique in the heart of Sorrento – Italy’s iconic cliffside town where Instagram-worthy views of the spectacular coastline become a part of everyday life.

Hotel highlights

The dazzling coastline of Sorrento has long inspired artists both past and present. And with a rooftop lounge bar that directly overlooks the Bay of Naples,  staying at Ara Maris gets you a front row seat to some of the best views in southwestern Italy.

When we say this five-star boutique is found 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 where you’ll be staying.

Boasting a menu that refines the timeless flavours of Mediterranean cuisine, the goal of Cora Restaurant is to evoke an irresistible sense of time and place. Enjoy dishes prepared with the freshest ingredients available for that season, served in either the stylishly contemporary dining room or surrounded by the enchanting beauty of the hotel’s Mediterranean gardens.

Lunchtimes, meanwhile, are reserved for the more traditional, but no less delicious, cuisine of Cora Bistrot. This is a poolside summer hangout where superior snacks such as lobster rolls and premium beefburgers sit alongside comforting pasta courses.

Every inch of Thala Spa at Ara Maris is dedicated to your complete wellness and regeneration. That extends to its interiors, which blend soft lighting, atmospheric music , and pleasant fragrances that linger softly in the air.

Purify your mind and body with a visit to the spa’s own Turkish hammam, slowly sink into the bubbling waters of the hydro pool, or turn up the heat with a soothing Finnish Sauna. Finally, put yourself in the reassuring hands of a professional masseur and let them ease those tensions away…

Lumi Sky Lounge is a panoramic rooftop bar and one of the hotel’s sparkling jewels in the crown. Enjoy a decadent evening of cocktails and gourmet tapas while peering out across the Bay of Naples.

The pool and garden area is a few notches above your average hotel’s pool scene. A solarium with extra-comfy sun loungers only sweetens the deal.

The rooms here are, quite simply, exceptional. Guests can look forward to sleek modern interiors, luxury amenities, and even complimentary beach bags with flip-flops.
