During my visit to Capri during the summer of 2008, I fell it love with this gorgeous island.
Capri, is located in the province of Naples in Southern Italy, in the northern part of the Amalfi Coast.
This small island is only a 20 minute hydrofoil ride from Sorrento, 40 minutes from Naples and 2-3 hours from Rome. Capri is great for day trippers, but is so beautiful you will definitely want to stay longer.
Fill your day laying under the hot Italian sun and lunching over a fresh Caprese salad which is native to the island. If you are the adventurous type you have your choice of sailing, renting a scooter, or charter a boat to take you to Capri’s famous blue grotto. Want to do some shopping? Capri has great high end shopping with stores like Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana, and Versace. When the sun goes down, experience life with the locals, go for dinner, sample different wines at the local taverns or dance the night away at disco “Number Two”.
If you want luxury accommodations, Capri has it. The Capri Palace Hotel & Spa is a 5 Star luxury hotel at its finest. Due to the location of this hotel, it has some of the best views over Capri and the ocean. It is also away from the hustle and bustle of the main town, which allows for quiet romantic dinners with your special someone.
The Capri Palace boasts award winning cuisine, an award winning spa, two yachts, a helicopter pad, and a penthouse that will take your breath away. Wondering what the price tag is? Rooms start around 600 Euros a night; however, there are accommodations in all price ranges.
