Capo La Gala Hotel & Spa

Some simple facts about the Luxury Hotel Capo La Gala stand out above all others: The location (tucked underneath terraces of olives and lemons in its own little sheltered headland) and the views (some of the finest anywhere on the Sorrento or Amalfi coasts).
This charming hotel does exclusive in a relaxed manner, settled into the fruit terraces where it was built in the 1950s creating a luxurious refuge that hugs the terrain and seems to be part of it. An organic architecture that means each room as well as the bar and restaurant benefit from those stunning views across the Bay of Naples, a horizon of azure waters with Capri, Ischia and Procida entering the scene.
The atmosphere is calm and select; the little cape where the hotel is positioned hides the villages along the coast leaving this little corner of paradise just for you. A restoration in 2006 brought one of the best-known designers to add bold and modern features to the hotel whilst never detracting from the fact that the main players here are those stunning views backed up by the colours of the water, the olive trees, the lemons…
The Luxury Design Hotel Capo La Gala is close to the towns of Sorrento (6 miles/9km) and Vico Equense (1 mile/2km) as well as Pompei (30 minutes by car or the local Circumvesuviana train) and Positano (45 minutes) so all of these places are easy to reach. The thing that we loved about the Capo La Gala, however, is its sense of exclusivity, that though close to culture and great little towns, its position on the olive terraces in the shelter of the little cape or headland from where it takes its name means that you really do feel as though you’re miles and days away from the rest of civilization. All you need to care about is the peace and quiet and the fact that the gourmet restaurant "Maxi" is extremely well-known in the area for cooking excellent dishes of fresh, local seafood and typical Neopolitan pasta. 
An unusual and utterly charming little place.
