Hotel Marina Riviera

We just stayed there for 3 days and loved everything about this hotel. We have a water view room with a nice since porch and an awesome comfortable bed. The hotel is close to the marina and Amalfi center which we loved. The staff is super friendly and go above and beyond to make your stay a memorable one.

"Good Afternoon...welcome to Hotel Marina Riviera. We have taken the liberty of upgrading your room to our penthouse." That's just what one wants to hear when arriving at the Amalfi coast's premiere hotel. There are so many special touches that this hotel includes, I hope I don't miss them in my details. We arrived in our room which had a large bedroom, living room area, enormous bathroom and complete with our own patio. The entire room overlooked the ocean and was within walking distance of town. The floors were made of beautifully designed tile throughout. The hotel provides you with flip-flops, a tote, and robes. The service was incredible complete with turndown service at night that included water and delightful cookies. Everyone was incredibly polite and caring. We took advantage of the swimming pool, the outside deck where the view was second to none. Each morning, we went downstairs to the patio, where the staff served anything and everything you could want for breakfast. The guests sit on the patio, that overlooks the ocean and the goings on in town...the light breeze, warm air and fabulous fare made for a perfect morning every day. Each day we would walk into town and explore the many incredible shops, restaurants and we also decided to visit the beach. A couple of things to remember: Their beach is actually all stone. Little stones, big stones to downright rocks. So you need to take water shoes if you plan on going into the sea. The sea has extra salinity, so even if you don't swim too well, the water will help you float. The water temperature is lovely and refreshing. You can actually rent an umbrella and chairs if you wish, just ask the front desk personnel. We highly recommend this hotel and all that it has to offer. As a side note, we found that we could actually drink their wine, as in both Italy and France, it's illegal to add nitrites and sulfites to the beverage. So if you get headaches from American wine, now you know why. The Hotel Marina Riviera has a spectacular wine collection.

This place was awesome! You may pay a pretty penny, but it's so worth it! We are a family of 4 with a 12 & 15 year old. The room was spacious and both sleeping places were very comfortable. I loved having the private balcony so I could sit out to read and enjoy the view, but when I got too hot I'd pop into my cool room! I liked that the pool is also partially shaded, to get a break from the sun. It was really hot in August. The breakfast was good, and had options for someone like me with a dairy allergy who doesn't eat meat. The one thing we didn't realize until we were there is that to walk down to the beach or to town, you walk along the road. There are no sidewalks, and barely a space to walk. But everyone does it, you just have to get used to it, and be mindful of your kids!
