Your Resort
SORRENTO Famed for its breathtaking views and enchanting atmosphere. With its many shops, boutiques, cafés and bars and its close proximity to the ancient ruins of Herculaneum, and Pompeii with majestic Mount Vesuvius as a backdrop, Sorrento has all the ingredients for a perfect one or two week holiday. A range of optional excursions are available.
Transfer time from Naples to Sorrento: 1hr 30 mins approximately.
Out & About
POMPEII The once thriving town which was destroyed in the terrible eruptions of 79AD. See the remains of houses, streets, the Forum, all of which provide evidence of the ancient way of life.
AMALFI COAST Follow the beautiful Amalfi coastline for spectacular, ever-changing views. From high up on the winding road, look down over the blue waters, deep gorges, fishing villages and little towns of whitewashed houses and terraces festooned with bougainvillaea which create a brightly coloured view.
CAPRI Separated from Sorrento by the bay of Naples, the island of Capri has long been a favourite holiday resort for the rich and powerful. It is a unique blend of laid back island-life, beautiful scenery and glitz and glamour.
Activities
Sorrento can be what you want it to be; whether that is a relaxing beach holiday simply enjoying the sun, a 'city-type break' making the most of the myriad of pavement cafés, trattorias and restaurants, or being more active and exploring the local area, ancient ruins and scenic delights by foot, boat or bicycle.
Shopping
Sorrento has a good range of shops with the centre of town at Via S. Cesareo, and the 'lanes' offering the best variety. Good buys include inlaid woodwork called Intarsio, olive oil, dressings, Limoncello, embroidered linen and ceramics. There is a market that travels along the coast in summer, which offers locally produced goods, and can be found in St Agnello on Mondays, Sorrento town on Tuesdays and the Massalubrense area on Fridays.
Food & Drink
You're in for a treat in the Neapolitan Riviera as there are a number of 'must try' local specialities. These include Pesce Spada, sword fish cooked on a griddle with olive oil, vinegar and mint; stuffed cuttlefish; Insalata Caprese, tomotoes with mozzarella, basil and olive oil; Risotto alla Marinara, seafood with rice, as well as the traditional pizza, best cooked in a wood-fired oven, that originated in Naples.
There are a number of red, white and sparkling wines produced locally to some renown, whilst Limoncello, the local lemon liqueur, is widely available and best served chilled and Nocino, a digestif made from walnuts, is also popular after a meal.
Beaches
You'll find mainly pebbly beaches and manmade bathing platforms along the Sorrento coast, including Leonelli, Peter's and Fortuna beaches which are close to the main harbour, whilst Marinella Beach in the St Agnello district, and Alimura Bay, offer sand. At most beaches you will normally have to pay for facilities such as deckchairs, parasols and sunbeds.
Weather
Sorrento enjoys hot summers with temperatures reaching the 80s and often 90s in July and August. May and October lean towards the late 60s/early 70s.
