Take the cooking class!
We stayed here with another couple. We opted to take the cooking class that Carmine and his wife, Mariana, offer. Well worth the price! Upon our arrival, Carmine shared with us a bottle of the best Prosecco that I have ever tasted! It was divine! We then proceeded to the cooking class and and bread that Mariana makes is amazing. Her hands on the bread, shaping it, are amazing. Later, there was pizza baked in their pizza oven. The best pizza ever! I'm looking forward to starting my own sour dough starter and making some great sour dough bread. It was a delightful evening.
Our room was very comfortable. Spacious with a large bathroom that included a bidet. The bed was comfortable with nice linens. I'm a "coffee first thing" person and it would have been nice to have coffee in the room. There is an espress/coffee machine on the rooftop terrace. The rooftop is beautiful. Very peaceful with nice views of the hills and city.
Rooftop Terrace is conveniently located to good restaurants, shops and transportation. Carmine can recommend restaurants in the area. We had a delightful meal at Peppino, just a 5 minute walk away. Great gnocchi, my personal favorite. Decent wine. There are 2 bakeries close by, too, and a large grocery store.
You can walk to downtown Sorrento in less than 30 minutes. There are some great shops, the port for ferries is there and lots of restaurants. Lots of limoncello and gelato along with linen clothing of all types.
