Italy: Caruso, A Belmond Hotel, Amalfi

Caruso, A Belmond Hotel · Ravello, Amalfi Coast, Italy

Caruso occupies a restored 11th-century palace, completed in its present form in 1600, perched at the highest point above the town of Ravello on the Amalfi Coast. Just 50 rooms and suites keep the property genuinely intimate, most with sea views, a terrace, or a private garden, and Belmond Villa Margherita, tucked into the hotel's gardens, offers an extraordinary private residence with two suites for guests wanting total seclusion. Past guests have included Jackie Kennedy and Virginia Woolf.

The hotel's infinity-edge pool sits suspended between sea and sky at the highest point above Ravello, regularly ranked among the most spectacular pools in the world. Ristorante Belvedere pairs the same panoramic coastline views with executive chef Mimmo di Raffaele's seasonal Campania cooking, drawing equally from the mountains and the sea, and the Wellness Centre rounds out the stay with treatments from Aromatherapy Associates and Maria Galland.
