Villa Marina Capri Hotel & Spa

A three-day return to Capri after many years, the staff and facilities of Villa Marina made for a perfect visit! Booking/Coordination. Booked directly on their site we found the best balance of price and notable “pre-paid” discount. Pre-arrival most coordination was via e-mail but some via WhatsApp. They were always responsive and extremely helpful with transfer plans and recommendations for dining. Check-in. We opted for a private boat transfer to Capri vs ferry and their concierge did a wonderful job getting the timing correct with coordination with our boat captain and the drivers to pick us up seamlessly for the short ride to the property. Very friendly reception with prompt processing of paperwork and short tour of the grounds. Our room was not yet ready as it was about 10-minutes prior to published check-in so we opted for a drink on the terrace. About 45 minutes we were taken to our room. Room. We decided to go “all out” and opted for the Suite Sea View with Pool. I believe they have two and we stayed in the Costello which is Southeast facing and the view and room were frankly breathtaking. Large open garden, patio, small private infinity pool, quant living room and comfortable bedroom with large doors opening to the patio. Certainly one of our top-ten rooms. Modern styling with all the fine touches you would expect from a hotel of this caliber, the kind of room you could spend your entire vacation in. That said, looking from the outside and of course the website it is clear that none of their rooms would be disappointing. Facilities. Impeccably clean and maintained, Villa Marina is a wonderful respite from the bustle of Capri. Common gardens, pool area and terrance offer quiet relaxation. They have a fitness area and spa which we did not visit. Dining. They have the Ziqù restaurant and an outdoor bar/lounge. Breakfast is served in the restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating options. The restaurant terrace has a great view. Breakfast has both a la carte and buffet options which was “European standard” and very tasty. Location. About halfway to the Capri city center along the road from the marina the views are beautiful but away from the hustle of the city. Villa Capri offers complimentary transportation to Capri city center and frankly we considered a must for going into town. The walk is certainly possible but it is made unnecessary and you can save your energy for the city. They have both a van and a Tuk Tuk which is an experience in itself. Staff. A mix of veteran and apprentice hospitality professionals brought the resort to life. Standouts were the concierge desk who would bend over backward to ensure our best stay and the drivers who had an infectiously positive attitude and of course prompt and professional service. They were proof you can’t have a nice hotel without a great staff! Tips. Your choice of course and we never felt it was “expected” but In my opinion place there are a lot of American tourists, the tip-culture shifts to American expectation. Perhaps an inconvenient fact but a fact none the less. Membership/Loyalty Program. I Prefer hotel member, you will get points if you have an account. That said, Villa Capri does not feel like a "branded hotel" but instead an independent luxury boutique hotel. Thanks to the wonderful staff of the Villa Marina for making our visit to Capri perfect!

My wife and I were spending the day on Capri - wanted to walk away from the crowded port with everyone yelling at me for their business. Walked up towards the footpath to Anacapri and saw two people having coffee in what appeared to be a very nice patio. Turns out it was this hotel. We told the man at the front desk that we wanted a light snack and coffee and he showed us up to the patio restaurant where we met Biagio. They had a break fast buffet that was still ongoing - the pastries, figs, Kiwi fruit, bread, buffalo mozzarella, tomatoes - were ALL incredible. Biagio brought us a special espresso - out of this world - and then proceeded to bring us curated dish after curated dish. Ham and figs, check. Tomato, mozzarella, basil, olive oil and salt, check. His favorite pastries, check. It felt like I was at my favorite Italian uncle’s house … a truly magical experience. And the view… if you find yourself in Capri and need a break from the crowds - this place fits the bill! Ask for Biagio!

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Marina in Capri, Italy. Our ocean sea view room was absolutely stunning, offering breathtaking views that made waking up each morning a delight. Dining on-site was a great experience; the dinner was delicious with a lovely ambiance. We particularly enjoyed spending time in the pool and spa area, which was both relaxing and refreshing. Another highlight was the free shuttle service to the island’s shopping areas, making it easy and convenient to explore without any hassle. Throughout our entire stay, the service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and professional. Overall, Villa Marina provided a perfect blend of comfort, luxury, and convenience for a memorable Capri getaway.

We travel a lot, 10+ times a year however First time to Capri. We found Villa Marina and what a little gem. Great location, Great accommodation, Great Staff .. We had Chaminda ( our Driver ) available at anytime to take us into town, Roberta and the team at reception were outstanding and Biaggio looked after us in the pool area. (Only small criticism, they need to work on room service menu out of hours ). Many good Restaurants in the Town, too many just to recommend one, and out of town would recommend Zuma .. Views /DJ/food / brilliant has a Mykonos chic sophistication to it ...
