Where we stay on the Amalfi Coast:
The attractive, family run, four-star Hotel Jaccarino is located at the small village of Sant Agata sui due Golfi
which is 9 km from the town of Sorrento and 50 km south
of Naples. The three-story hotel is in a quiet, hill-top location and with
beautiful views of the Mediterranean and of Mount Vesuvius across the
bay in the distance. The dining room terrace overlooks a large terrace
with a lovely swimming pool. There are attractive lounge areas and
bar with superb views over the bay.
Comfortable rooms have twin or double beds, flat-screen TV, personal
safe and private modern bath with hair-dryer. The hotel
runs a free bus into the town of Sorrento. A computer is available in
the lobby (there is a charge)
ALL ROOMS ARE
NON-SMOKING
Meals:
Breakfast and dinner are included.
Breakfast is a buffet. There is a wide choice with coffee (including
specialty coffees), juices, cereal, fruit, yoghurt, cheese, eggs,
fresh-baked croissants and brioches.
Dinners are taken in the hotel dining room some
nights. The dining room offers a four course dinner with a choice of
three options including one vegetarian. You can sample lots of different
pastas, local vegetables and local fresh fish. Tea and coffee are
included.
On
some nights we go to nearby restaurants to sample a variety of
Neapolitan cuisine (choice of menu). Although pizza
and pasta are the culinary symbols of Neapolitan cuisine, the Bay of
Naples region is also known for its superb cheeses (including the famous
mozzarella), its tasty fish and seafood dishes and its delicious ice
cream and pastries. One has to try such sweets as the "sfogliatella", "pastiera",
"zeppole" and many others, to say nothing of a whole range of delicious
table fruits.
