Capri – Italy’s Favorite Island

If you want to live the “Dolce Vita” the proper way, there's only one destination: Capri.

Few kilometers off the Naples coast, the island is a real jewel, with its famous “Faraglioni” (huge sea stacks), the colorful suggestive sea caves and the amazing surrounding islands, it is the ideal day boat trip.

But it's at night that the real Capri “Dolce Vita” comes to life when all the beautiful people get out of their golden hiding places and pour in the chic restaurants and trendy venues. So, stay for the night, let the other tourists leave the island and get ready to join the cool people hanging around the “Piazzetta” for lots of celebrity sightings and the lively nightlife.

During the summer months though, Capri is overcrowded and overpriced, so if possible, try to avoid the months from June to September, but if you can't, just lay back and let WorldTop 7 guide you to best hotels on the island:

TOP STAYS

HOTEL PUNTA TRAGARA

WorldTop7 hot pick

With its legendary facade, designed by Le Corbusier himself in 1920, HOTEL PUNTA TRAGARA is an institution in Capri.

Located 15 minutes walk from the very center of the island, the hotel is one of the most luxurious venues in Capri, with its daring architecture carved in the mountain rock, stretched outside the cliff and its infinity pool overlooking a breathtaking landscape, in front of the legendary “Faraglioni”.

The enchantment continues inside with its completely renewed interiors redesigned with an ethereal and modern flare according to the taste of the owner, the Count Manfredi of Rome.

All rooms are different and offer a diverse experience, from the amazing lobby to the penthouse suite, even the bathrooms are conceived to impress, and you will enjoy the stunning views even from the toilet.

The sophisticated interior made of marble spread everywhere, from floors to luxurious bath tubs, geometric modern rugs and obviously the location in the most romantic area of Capri attract a wide number of jet-setters who can't wait to show themselves in the most exclusive venue of the island.

LA SCALINATELLA

Giorgio Armani's favorite

Located on Via Tragara, one of the most romantic streets in Capri, walking distance from the town square, LA SCALINATELLA includes 30 rooms in an elegant atmosphere: even one of the most glamorous Italian fashion designers, Giorgio Armani, is a regular here.

The unique collectible items in the lobby and in the rooms and the hand painted tiles, give the hotel that peculiar boutique flare and a familiar atmosphere that will comfort you when you recover from the shock of the amazing view over the “Faraglioni”.

LA SCALINATELLA will be a quite retreat, a bit detached from the main village, really enjoyable during the off peak months, with the full service restaurant, the luxurious pool and the tennis courts right beside the hotel. Recently it got way more popular than its sister hotel Casa Morgano.

J.K. PLACE CAPRI

Ralph Lauren Hamptons style in Italy

This modern cliff-side boutique hotel on the beautiful island of Capri offers 360 degree breathtaking views including a small spa & gym.

The pool and the deck are divine giving you the feeling of staying at someone's private Palazzo on the sea. The views are magnificent. It is one of the best places to stay on the island and situated far from the maddening crowds of Capri, yet close enough for shopping, dining and nightlife. (The hotel is less than 5 minutes by golf cart or car from the marina.) Also, it is a magical place ideal for a honeymoon or romantic getaway.
