Villa Oriana Relais Sorrento

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 25 Sept 2024
Our stay at Villa Oriana Relais was a highlight of our trip to Italy. The hotel itself is beautiful built into the hillside above Sorrento. The view from the rooms, the dining room, and the rooftop terrace are spectacular.

The rooms themselves are generously sized. Beds were very comfortable. The patios and balcony were large and private. The amenities in the rooms were well thought out. The Dyson hairdryer was exceptionally nice to have.

The breakfast is a visual and culinary treat. Everything was fresh, colorful and flavorful. Made to order boiled eggs and custom cappuccinos were such a nice touch. When we remarked, teasingly, that we'd like the recipes for the quiche we actually received an email with multiple recipes for the items on the breakfast. Such a nice we to remember our stay.

The staff were friendly and courteous. They created an atmosphere of luxury which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Highly recommend Villa Oriana.
Date of stay: September 2024
Room Tip: Take advantage of the shuttle to get to and from Sorrento. Walking is a bit dicey due to the roads.
Trip type: Travelled with family

The property is absolutely beautiful with amazing views. Our room was clean and bright and quiet. Maria and team were so kind and attentive! The breakfasts were spectacular with the homemade frittata, quiche, and an assortment of freshly baked items daily. So many choices at breakfast! My most favorite things were the Italian cheesecake, and croissants. The cheesecake brought me back to memories of my mother's cheesecake. Thank you so much for making us feel like we were at home in your Villa! We loved our stay!

Room tip: I would suggest coordinating your day with the shuttle times into town if you do not have transportation. In August, dress for comfort!

Maria and her staff are second to none. They are first class in every way!!! From the magnificent, immaculate property to the freshly baked goods for breakfast daily it is both a very special and unique experience. The beautiful property built into the mountain has an incredible view and is both modern in features and impeccably maintained. The ambiance of the entire experience is warm, welcoming and always accomadating. Maria is an absolute delight and makes it a very personal experience. She takes such pride in both her generational family property, her family and if your lucky... her beautiful grandson may be visiting!!! Her staff are outstanding and fantastic at assisting guests in any way possible. The beauty of the lemon orchards, olive trees and grapes surrounding the villa just add the ambiance of your stay in Sorrento. I highly recommend the Villa Oriana Relais and hope to return again. It truly is a special experience to be cherished.

Wow! What an amazing place to stay. We travelled to Sorrento for 4 nights to celebrate my birthday. My partner had wanted to book something special for us, did his research and did not disappoint with Villa Oriana Relais. Communication prior to our trip was excellent and Maria and her team were very informative with responding to questions. On arrival at the villa we were greeted with a beautiful piece of homemade cake and lemonade. The staff were very welcoming and we immediately felt relaxed. The views from the balcony and our room were stunning, a joy to wake up to. The homemade and lovingly prepared breakfast every morning was gorgeous and set us up for the day. I honestly don't know how Maria fits in all of this baking! The villa is situated up a steep hill which we challenged ourselves to walk up each day. However, there is a shuttle service available if you don't want to do this as it is very steep! It's around 25mins to walk to Sorrento town square and is conveniently placed for excursions outside of the town too. We visited Pompeii and Capri.
Maria and her team keep the villa immaculate and there is always someone available to ask questions of. There is a hot tub, sun loungers and seating area on the roof of the villa which was an added bonus.
Our room and en suite had everything in it we could need, was spacious and clean.
Thank you Maria and team for making our stay in Sorrento perfect.

Initially we were stuck deciding between a few places to stay in Sorrento and happy to say, we chose the best of them!

A beautiful hotel in a stunning location and lovely staff. I’m not sure where to start so will try and summarise a few highlights:

- After a long journey to Sorrento we were met with a homemade slice of cake and lemonade - very much needed.
- Hotel staff were friendly and helpful, helping us book taxis, giving us maps etc.
- Maria and her breakfast! Delicious homemade cakes and jams. My personal favourites was the chocolate cake, which the hotel gave us recipes for.
- The rooftop bathing area with hot tub with stunning views.

Overall a peaceful hotel in a beautiful location, we couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you to Maria and staff for being so accommodating.
