ATTENTION. Language: English.
The Amalfi Coast is the pinnacle of the Italian dream. Nestled among lemon and bougainvillea trees, the Amalfi Coast is made up of thirteen towns. Known for their vertical landscape, the villages can only be reached via the Strada Statale 163 - a narrow, winding cliffside road that, although disturbing to cross, offers unrivalled views. This magical strip links the mountains with the Mediterranean Sea below. Aesthetes from all over the world flock here year after year to enjoy its picturesque pebble beaches, scenic hikes, perfect climate and legendary establishments, which are not limited to hotels and restaurants with an established history. From Amalfi Cathedral to Villa Rufolo in Ravello, all monuments evoke the culture and spirit of centuries past, and monuments enjoyed by the likes of Jacqueline Kennedy, John Steinbeck and Gore Vidal abound. With its characteristic limoncello, grown and enjoyed locally, its finest villas and breathtaking panoramas, the Amalfi Coast is in a class of its own.
