La Conca Azzurra

A beautiful scenary and seaview. Very quiet, and suitable for people who are happy with the hotel's facilities and not much else.

Most importantly: the hotel is deserted. It's very difficult to get to other places, as nothing is nearby (except for the Grotta Smeraldo). Buses are often late, and taxis are incredibly expensive. The hotel is vey quiet after dinner, so don't expect charming bars or nightlife. Some rooms might have big trees blocking the seaview. Swimming facilities are poor, with one ladder, no beach and sometimes strong currents and high waves.

The views were stunning and the hotel was located in a lovely tranquil spot 2km from Amalfi. The food was fresh and very tasty. The rooms were well decorated and spacious if a little tired. However, We first noticed a really loud noise that sounded 10 times louder than a hand dryer come from underneath the bathtub. This roaring sound came suddenly approximately every 2 hours and lasted 3 minutes.

We called reception to report this noise twice but no action, We forgot about it and had a nice dinner and wine. The loud noise woke us up all through the night and we were exhausted the next day. Receptionist told that it was our fault for not escalating it despite us calling them twice the previous day. The Owner later compensated us with dinner, but being blamed by receptionist ruined our stay
