Grand Hotel Cocumella

A 16th century former monastery- Grand Hotel Cocumella sits high on the coast overlooking the Bay of Naples. A hotel since 1822- it is a tranquil retreat with beautiful flower gardens that end at the cliff edge- fine cuisine- a swimming pool and a superb sailing boat which can be chartered. The ambience is sophisticated yet relaxed and peaceful. Corridors with statues and terracotta vases lead to rooms and suites with beautiful walnut furniture- marble chimneys and frescoed ceilings. An ancient stone well stands in the centre of the cloister. Wander further and you will discover the private church in which occasional concerts are held. Stroll through the wisteria and rose-filled gardens and head for the walkway along the cliff edge. The view is astounding. Then- lunch by the pool in the shade of the orange trees. Alternatively- charter the sailing boat for the day to Capri or Positano or for overnight cruises. The Grand Hotel Cocumella is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property. //...
