"Praiano isn’t the most famous town on the Amalfi Coast, but its appeal is undeniable: it’s just beyond Positano, which not only places it outside the most crowded stretch of the coast, but gives it an astonishing view of Positano itself, along with the dramatic seascapes to the west. This is where you’ll find Casa Angelina, a rare hotel that makes a virtue of modern architecture and design even in these most traditional environs — and, in the process, establishes a tone of understated luxury that few hotels anywhere can match." - The MICHELIN Guide
"A stunning stretch of coastline famous for its picturesque views, lemon groves, and historical richness."
"Located between the tourist-flooded towns of Amalfi and Positano, peaceful Praiano looks like a movie set with wander-worthy streets, villas, and restaurant terraces teetering on rocky cliffs. Many visitors also prefer the more leisurely, almost sleepy, pace that allows you to soak in the beauty of its historic churches and watch towers rising above the rugged coast. The five-star boutique gem Casa Angelina typifies the laid-back lifestyle and authenticity that makes Praiano so delightful." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"Unlike the grande dames of the Amalfi Coast , Angelina is sleek, modern, and a startling, almost Greek-style interloper to the cliffside above pretty Praiano. All 42 rooms are white-on-white, accented by views of the bright blue sea below from their private terraces; if you want to be more at one with nature, go for the Eaudesea Experience rooms—whitewashed old fishermen’s cottages, etched into the cliffside above La Gavitella beach, below the hotel (be warned, though—there are 200 steps plus an elevator up to the main building). Down on said beach is a club for all hotel guests; if you can’t face the climb, there are indoor and outdoor pools on the main property. The house boat, meanwhile, will swivel you around the coast, and even over to Capri. Back on site, Un Piano nel Cielo (A Floor in the Sky) takes just-netted fish to new heights (literally—it’s the rooftop restaurant), while Seascape Cocktail Bar, cantilevered over the bay, does a fine line in limoncello-infused mojitos. Note that children under 12 are not permitted. — Julia Buckley"
"A luxe boutique hotel where you can lay on a lounge chair under a lemon tree, looking towards the sea." - Travel + Leisure Editors
