Padula Vacation Packages

My wife and I recently celebrated a milestone birthday in Amalfi and stayed at the Anantara Convento Di Amalfi Grand Hotel. We had many hotel options, but we are so pleased that we chose the Anantara and the city of Amalfi for our stay. The location was a perfect launching point to visit the many areas of interest. It was close enough to all the restaurants, shops and sea in Amalfi, but also far enough away to enjoy a more private experience. The walk from the hotel down into the center of Amalfi was breathtaking. The staff was wonderful and always bent over backwards to make us happy. We must give a shoutout to the pastry chef for breakfast. We really enjoyed all the special treats.

The views were amazing, the deck was spacious and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very convenient and delicious. Just be prepared to walk up a significant amount of stairs daily.

Close to city center for shopping and dining. Lovely pool and garden. Wonderful breakfast on the terrace.

We stayed for two nights and we liked several things. We arrived around 10 AM, before the 2 PM check-in, and the owner kindly kept our luggage and called when the room was ready around noon. The room was comfortable, everything worked, housekeeping was good, and staff arranged a porter to the bus stop at checkout. The other staff were also polite and helpful. Unfortunately, our experience was affected by interactions with the owner. When we left our luggage, my wife asked whether it was safe in the hallway. The response that “nobody is interested in your luggage” felt unnecessarily abrupt. A simple reassurance would have been more appropriate. The more serious issue was at breakfast. We are vegetarian and asked about alternatives given the limited selection. The owner brought some tomatoes, which we appreciated. However, when my wife pointed out that some fruit appeared old and asked about other options, the conversation became confrontational. We were told that if we needed so many things, we should stay at a five-star hotel. The following day, my wife was again described as “complicated” and told to stay at a five-star hotel. The conversation escalated, with raised voices in front of other guests. We felt it could have been handled more calmly and professionally. The hotel has many positives, but the owner’s handling of the situation overshadowed an otherwise pleasant stay.

The Staff was so lovely and accommodating. Great breakfast buffet and the views from the hotel are amazing!!!
