Grand Hotel Il Saraceno Amalfi

The Grand Hotel Il Saraceno is a spectacular 5 star hotel built on rocky terraces descending to the sea of Amalfi. As the name of the hotel might suggest, the design of the building has been inspired by the strong Moorish influence present in much of the Amalfi Coast's architecture, with beautiful ornately decorated ogival arches, and unique pieces of antique furniture.

The light filled guest rooms and suites, equipped with every modern comfort, are each individually furnished, some with elaborate wrought iron bedsteads and impressive hand made glass lanterns. All rooms have sea views. Deluxe rooms, Junior Suites and Suites have balconies or terraces.

The sumptuous Royal Suite is comprised of large bedroom, beautifully decorated living room, and has two bathrooms, one with whirlpool bath tub and the other with hydromassage shower. The magnificent terrace offers guests total privacy and the most stunning views of the bay of Amalfi and the dazzling blue Mediterranean sea

A large swimming pool with sea water is located on the central terrace of the property. Lifts transport guests to the charming private beach where to bask in the sunshine. On the beach a castle like structure has been built on the site of an 11th century fortress. The beach front restaurant is the venue for banquets for up to 200 guests. A second restaurant, located on the higher floors of the hotel, serves hotel guests with the finest Mediterranean and International cuisine.

The perfect choice for honeymooners, Il Saraceno also provides the idyllic venue for those wishing to celebrate their wedding on Italy's Amalfi Coast. The hotel's intimate chapel, dating back to the Romanesque period, has been the stage for many a romantic marriage.
