Best place to rest and relax on the busy Amalfi Coast. Emilio and Angela hosted us in their wonderful B&B and treated us like family. Most wonderful people I’ve ever stayed with. They helped us navigate the area, made an amazing fresh daily breakfast (more like a brunch) and even helped when the weather took a turn and I was without a coat. This was also the best rest we’ve ever had on a vacation as well. Super quiet up in the hills of Amalfi and set apart from the noise of the downtown, yet it still has its own uptown community to explore if you’re adventurous. We also were able to enjoy their hot tub after the Path of the Gods hike. Wonderful experience.

The little property is gorgeous. However contributed to the charm of the stay was the love and sincerity of the host and hostess. They were simply the kindest and warmest persons we have met on this trip. It was hardly a biz transaction but a friendly encounter. We woke up to big smiles and a big breakfaat prepared by the hostess. She took care of every details wigh much sincerity and love. She went extra miles to send us to the restuarant, saving us some bucks. I highly recommend this place

Beautiful B&B
My partner and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Solaria! Emilio and Angela were the best hosts we could have asked for and made us feel like family. They went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable, fed us a gorgeous breakfast every morning and helped us to navigate the confusing bus system. They also gave great restaurant suggestions in San Lazzaro which is just a 15 min walk up some (very steep) steps. Everything was clean and perfect!

The owners were so helpful with every aspect of our stay. They told us the best ways to get around town. My wife has allergies they made sure the breakfast was food she could eat. They’re all around good people. This property is a little out of the way it takes about 25 min drive from the Amalfi square or an hour bus ride. But beautiful views while ur there.

Emilio & Angela were the best hosts EVER! Highly recommend 10/10, if I could give a higher rating I would. It is important to do your research before booking because this spot is about a 15-20 minute drive to amalfi and is out of the tourist area. Each morning Angela and her assistant made a homemade breakfast from their garden and was great, they really made us feel like family. It was my wife and I’s honeymoon and couldn’t be any more happy with our visit. It is very quiet and peaceful with great views. Agerola is about a 15 minute walk right up the stairs and have great restaurants. Do recommend renting a scooter to get around as the bus is not reliable and taxi is expensive. Overall great stay at solaria and you will not be disappointed

The hosts are wonderful. Very welcoming and helpful. The breakfasts are amazing! Bed and pillows super comfortable. It is about 20 minutes from Amalfi, even though only about 2 miles away. The only thing that bothered me was the 'housekeeping'... Our stuff was completely gone through. We put our laundry on the bottom of the wardrobe to come back and find it hung up, except our underwear. I put my suitcase next to my side of the bed and it was moved. My toothbrush was moved to a cup by the sink, which I really don't like it being touched. Our vitamins/supplements were moved each day. Chargers onto of my briefcase moved.... I'm sure they were trying to be helpful, nothing was taken, I just like my things to be gone through by anyone.

Response from emilio on 3 Sept 2023
First of all we would like to thank you very much for the nice words you spent about Solaria.We are really sorry if we caused some troubles with our house keeping, that we make every day in a very accurate way cause we pay a lot of importance to the clealiness. According with your complain about the toothbrush we would just remark that you left it on the sing, so that we had to remove it to clean the sing. Any way we put it in the special bowl near by the mirror. Eventually, as you spent three nights here, we wonder why you did not tell us, after the first night, that you were unwilling to have housekeeping in your room: many guests think we manage to make our job in a very good way, but so far , we are still unable to read in the other's mind.

Beautiful property. We had a room with a view and balcony. Nice and comfortable bed Beautiful, cooked breakfast with fresh ingredients like farmed eggs, fresh tomatoes , mozzarella and fruit. Beautifully serves coffee and tea. Little hard to get to as it’s on the hill but there is free parking if you are traveling by car. Better to arrive before sun set. Nice restaurant close by 10 min by car. There is no pool as described but a hot tub, however didn’t get to use it.

We had so many issues arriving to the hotel (ferries being cancelled, difficulty with finding a cab) and our hosts were so accommodating and helpful. This high-level of hospitality lasted throughout our stay which only helped to accentuate the coziness and beauty of Solaria, we stayed for 3 magical nights and regret not having booked for longer! And if that isn’t the best looking cappuccino which I ordered each morning as part of the breakfast !

Cutest Hotel with the best view you can imagine. We arrived in Napoli and took a taxi to Amalfi...the hotel is located in the mountains therefore you need to take the bus or taxi to get into town. The couple that owns it make you feel like if you are part of the family. They go out of their way to help make your stay unforgettable. The view in the morning with the home made breakfast is glorious. If you need a taxi call Ciro Cavaliere through WhatsApp... his rates are affordable and he is excellent and reliable. The hotel is excellent, specially if you are going for a quiet, relaxing vacation.

It was an amazing stay at Solaria for our family. Amelio was very helpful in guiding us on all the logistics to travel around Amalfi to make our holiday there so smooth and easy. Angela makes delicious breakfast everyday for us, and it was our best breakfast we ever had in all our holiday. The cakes Angela made were especially good, with great taste, texture, moist and not too sweet. Both Amelio and Angela makes our holiday stay a wonderful, enjoyable and memorable experience.

Best location in and around Amalfi. The owners, Angela & Emilio are great hosts, lovely and friendly people. We loved Angela's cakes and breakfast, and amazed how knowledgeable Emilio is about history. Stunning views, peaceful and quiet surrounding full of birdsong and fragrant Mediterranean breeze, tastefully decorated rooms and outdoor area, even a sauna and jakuzi with ocean views. I don't know what more anyone could ask. I'd definitely stay here on my next visit. The room is great, the shower cabin has a glass wall with the surrounding rock visible through. The decoration is on par with hotels twice the price

Beautiful, quiet B&B in the mountains
The hosts of Solaria, Emilio and Angela were fabulous. When we first arrived we sat down with Emilio and he gave us great information on the area and the sights. We made our plans from his advice and had a great trip in the Amalfi Coast. Angela’s breakfasts every morning were delicious. She served fresh meats and cheeses from the area and her homemade cakes were so good. Our room was very clean and spacious and we loved looking at the ocean from our balcony. Solaria is a quiet, beautiful B &B above Amalfi and I would definitely stay here again.

There were tons of ants in the room because there was some food. Didn’t offer to help me with my bags. Also, got this room to do laundry and the guy said no it was “ to late” at 8:45pm. Not my favorite. The hot tub wasn’t clean and it was alllll the way at the top of the mountain.

Ants : of course if you keep food in the room of a place surrounded of trees , the ants come ( this is one of the basic things we recall to the guest when he comes ) At the arrival, my son and me welcome guests at the entrance street level down and we always ask to help guests: it is a surprise learning we did not with this people. Why we should not have done ? we help guests that need the laundry service ALWAYS. we are sorry for the h ot tube, but NOBODY complained along all the season !

Lovely B&B, rustic setting
Solaria is a beautiful bead and breakfast. Our bedroom had a balcony overlooking the ocean, and there are other outdoor areas in which to sit and enjoy the scenery and peacefulness of the location. There is a hot tub and a sauna, but we did not have an opportunity to use them. The breakfasts were delicious. Our host Angela was very welcoming, and she is a superb baker. Antonella made the cooked breakfasts, which included local cheeses. Located in the hills above Conca dei Marina, the B&B is literally at the end of a narrow paved road, and there are many steep hairpin turns - so it is not for the inexperienced driver. There is parking available. Steep steps lead to the B&B, so it is not for the infirm. It is perfect if you are looking for peace and quiet (with occasional donkey and rooster sounds), and there are 2 restaurants within a 10 minute drive.

Es una propiedad increíble, las vistas preciosas, pero sobre todo la atención de Emilio y Ángela que te hacen sentir como parte de la familia. Los desayunos deliciosos, en especial los postres que día a día prepara Ángela. La propiedad se encuentra a a 15-20min de Amalfi por lo que hay que tener en cuenta el transporte, si van en auto tiene estacionamiento propio. Excelente experiencia, sin dudar regresaría.
