My husband and I started our 30th anniversary trip to Italy in Sorrento last month. When I began to plan the trip and determined Sorrento would be our first base, I was torn between this lovely hotel down in the marina and a larger hotel up on the cliffs. I am so thankful that I chose Marina Picolla 73! We chose a balcony, sea-view room and the view did not disappoint. To wake up to the sound of ship horns, sea gulls cawing and waves gently lapping the shore was such a treat. The room was spacious and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The bathroom was large and had nice amenities and robes and slippers! Breakfast is served on a terrace with an amazing view. Donatella was delightful. She made an excellent cappucino and provided us with delicious treats for breakfast, including her homemade cake. You can also request eggs for breakfast if you want, but we never did. She also told us about the resident sea gulls and how she helped the daddy sea gull when he arrived with fishing line wrapped around his leg which makes him now walk with a little limp. We loved this location. You can get up to the main part of Sorrento a few ways: Taxi, bus, lift or walk. We mainly used the stairs accessed by walking along the sidewalk which runs along the cliff. These stairs take you directly to Piazza Tasso. You can also walk along the marina and once you get to the Marameo beach club you can either take the lift up for a few Euro or enter a path which zig zags up the hill and ends up at the Villa Comunale Di Sorrento where you can enjoy a fabulous view of the bay! From here it is just a short walk into the magical streets of Sorrento. Mariarita in the office was very welcoming when we arrived. Unfortunately for us, our flight was delayed overnight in London on what was to be our first night, and Mariarita was very responsive in helping us with our airport transfers the day we were to arrive. She also set us up with a private driver to take us back to Naples on the day we left for Sicily, and he was one of my favorite drivers of the entire trip! This hotel is beyond charming and magical. We will not stay anywhere else when we return to Sorrento!
