Hotel Santa Caterina sits on the cliff just outside Amalfi town, among lemon and orange terraces, and has been run by the Gambardella family since its start in 1880. A lift runs down to the sea.

The rooms have hand painted majolica floors and marble bathrooms. The Follia Amalfitana Suite is a garden suite among the citrus trees, with a shell shaped bed, a solarium and its own pool. The suites in the main building have a living area, a large tub and a terrace or garden facing the coast, and the Executive Junior Suites add a sitting area and a marble bathroom.

Chalet Giulietta e Romeo is a two level chalet set into the cliff, with a round terrace that hangs over the water, a private garden and a pool.

Glicine, the hotel's restaurant, has held one Michelin star for three years in a row.
