Villa Rina - Amalfi

The views were fine, and waking up to the sea made my mornings special. Rina's home-cooked dinners were the highlight of my stay-so delicious! Each room has a nice terrace facing the ocean. The location is peaceful, away from the tourist crowds.

Stunningly beautiful hotel, amazing location out in valley surrounded by lemon groves and with SPECTACULAR views. Delicious food served, like coffee, croissants and yogurt. Reasonably spacious room, as well as amiable staff.

We had croissants and yoghourt for breakfast, it was good. The location of the property was lovely and beautiful, on the cliffs. After a long drive the very very helpful staff was waiting for us.

Rina's culinary creations are pure magic! Her home-cooked dinners are a feast for the senses-think four-course meals that'll make your taste buds dance! The fine view paired with a sunset dinner wrapped in tranquility just tops it all. The rooms are super clean with gorgeous balconies, perfect for soaking in that Amalfi vibe. You can relax in the lovely garden or get tips from Rina about local adventures.

Great place to stay. Food and location are awesome and not to mention the lovelly Rina

We loved this hotel!!!! We were there for our honeymoon. The Villa is so romantic, and Rinna is the sweetest lady. She is a fantastic cook and a dear guide of the area. We sincerely hope to return. Fabulous views of the Amalfi Coast as well.. I can't say enough- we are so happy finding this romantic treasure amid the lemon groves..we miss Rinna!

Be ready to climb. There are a lot of steps. However, it makes sense- Amalfi is a town of cliffs hanging over the beaches, and you'll be staying perched up on a cliff. I thought it was totally charming and worth a climb up! I personally wouldn't want to stay in the noisy town center.

Staying at Villa Rina reminded me of escaping to a hidden paradise. The views from the Double Room with Sea View were amazing every morning. Watching the sunrise over the Amalfi Coast from my balcony was sheer bliss. Rina's homemade breakfasts were good, with fresh ingredients from her garden and local specialties. Each meal was a delicious start to the day. Be prepared for a workout! The journey involved around 200 steep steps, which might not suit those with mobility issues. It was quite a trek from Amalfi, so plan accordingly. Plus, while the dinners prepared by Rina were fantastic, the pricing caught me off guard. One dinner cost 80 euros, quite steep compared to dining out elsewhere for roughly 70 euros for two meals. The outdoor space was wonderful, and the lush garden reminded me of a sanctuary. I appreciated the personal touch of having homemade meals and the tranquil atmosphere away from crowds, but the cost of dining felt excessive for what you get elsewhere.

Rina cooked gourmet Italian dinners for us as well as breakfasts. The comfortable rooms have balconies that look over the Amalfi Coast.

We both loved it, the place is stunningly beautiful and charming and suited fine. The breakfast had a good choice of EXCELLENT food and drinks. The staff were extremely gracious and amicable and the location was great on a hill overlooking the ocean.

Everything! Beautifully lush garden, friendly and cute staff, fine coastal views!

We booked Villa Rina after reading some great reviews. We were not disappointed. The view is exceptional. The food is all prepared by Rina and is excellent. We ate breakfast and dinner on the terrace which was a thoroughly enjoyabe experience. The villa is surrounded by lemon trees, grave vines and vegetable gardens and is quiet and completely private. Rina is a wonderful host and nothing is too much trouble. This villa is unique in that there are approx 100 steps to climb to reach it. Worth the effort, book it!

The view from the terrace is fantastic, with fine vistas of the coastline. The room itself provides a private escape.

Reaching the hotel involves a rigorous climb of about 300 stone steps, with uneven surfaces that could pose challenges, especially at night or in rain. The breakfast offerings are quite basic and repetitive, with limited variety including only simple coffee, tea, and no fruit. The porter service for luggage, while convenient, may not handle bags with care, leading to scratches and dirt on your suitcase after the trek.

Rina herself, and that they now have a historic book about the migration age in their household.

This hotel is an absolute gem. It is set on the hillside in a citrus grove, overlooking the bay and yes, it's absolutely stunning! Best of all though, has to be the owner of the Villa, she is incredibly welcoming and friendly and makes you the most delicious, home-cooked, real Southern Italian food, most of which she has grown in her garden! We had the best time - it was more like staying with family.

There is only one small point to note - the villa is only accessible by quite a few stairs... There is a very strong chap who takes your bags for you but you do need to be in reasonble shape to cope with them.

The amazing view over the Amalfi Coast was the highlight! Rina's dinner was a true culinary delight 🍽️. Walking up those steep steps was a real workout, though.
