Sorrento is one of the most beloved and elegant towns of southern Italy, perched dramatically on cliffs above the Bay of Naples with sweeping views across the water to Vesuvius. A classic destination for generations of travellers, it combines timeless charm, lively energy and a superb strategic position.
The town is famous for its fragrant lemon groves, from which the local limoncello is made, and for its lively historic centre of narrow lanes, elegant piazzas and inlaid woodwork shops. Grand clifftop hotels and terraced gardens look out over the bay, offering some of the finest views in the region.
Sorrento is ideally placed at the meeting point of the Amalfi Coast, the Bay of Naples and the islands of Capri and Ischia, making it a perfect base for exploring one of the richest cruising grounds in the Mediterranean. The ruins of Pompeii and the drama of Vesuvius lie just across the bay.
With its clifftop setting, timeless charm and outstanding location, Sorrento captures the romance of southern Italy. Guests can explore its lively streets, enjoy its celebrated views and use it as a gateway to the coast’s most spectacular destinations.
