Capri
Palace Hotel & Spa, and all the Beauty of Capri.
|
| Well, what can
I say, the Capri Palace located in AnaCapri Italy is indeed just that,
a Palace… I didn't really know what to think about traveling
all the way to Italy to review the Capri Palace. I thought, the long
trip, is it worth it? Will it just be another proclaimed 5 star hotel
like all the rest. I was completely surprised, overwhelmed
and in love with Capri, the Capri Palace, and its entire staff.
|
| You talk about
a group of friendly genuine people going out of their way for
you day and night. For one thing the Sales & Marketing Manager
Julia Johannsen-Roth was just too gracious to describe. I cannot
explain how she just went out of her way to make us feel at home.
She escorted us on a lovely boat tour throughout the island of Capri,
and was the perfect tour guide. The “Capricorn One”
motor boat, operated by Gennaro the Skipper, is a great way to enjoy
the entire Island of Capri and its surrounding sights. Guests staying
at the Capri Palace Hotel & Spa may arrange for a tour similar
to the one I mentioned onboard the “Capricorn One” for
fabulous sightseeing tour of their own. Click on the following
link to view the incredible images I got of the Island thanks
to Julia. Capri Island Images. |

Anyway, let
me show and tell you a little bit about this incredible place called
the Capri Palace Hotel & Spa, located in the charming town of
Anacapri. Getting there you would just have to take a flight to
Naples Italy, from there a short cab ride to the port of Naples
where you will catch the public hydrofoil, a ferry or a private
water taxi across the Mediterranean sea to the Island of Capri.
|
| Once in Capri
you can take a cab, or have the Hotel arrange to pick you up in their
van. Up the mountains into the incredibly scenic roads of Capri, and
then the charming town of Anacapri. Arriving to an incredibly friendly
staff at the Capri Palace, and then viewing this Palace is a sight
in itself. |
| First of all,
let me tell you where the Capri Palace is situated. The Palace is
situated in the historic romantic little town of Anacapri.
High above the mountain is this incredible Village with all of its
Greek flavor. Unique in its own way with the most incredible
little shops offering everything from designer clothing, unique crafts
and gifts. Spectacular views from every angle, especially if you take
the chair lift up to Monte Solaro you will surely see the most
panoramic view ever. Quaint little restaurants such as “La
Giara”, “Materita” and “Le Arcate”
will fill your appetites fantasy. Take a stroll through the narrow
little streets and you will just want to pack your big city away forever.
As far as lemons, Anacapri, and Capri are full of refreshing lemon
trees. Dine under the lemon trees; try the mouth awakening lemon Sorbet
prepared in an oversized frozen lemon, or if you dare, try some Limoncello.
Limoncello is liqueur made up of fresh lemons created in Anacapri
with a kicking 32% alcohol content. If driving don' t drink too much,
it is incredibly tasty but strong! Click on this Anacapri
& Capri Sights link to check out some incredible images. |
| Beaches
of this incredible island are just as wonderful as the island
in itself. The Mediterranean water is a fabulous turquoise color,
crisp and fresh, with the surrounding incredible views of Naples,
and all the history it is made up of. There is just no other place
like it to swim. I mean you can just gaze at the spectacular history
and beauty forever. The Blue Grotto is just mouth dropping
to look at, rent a boat to float under and through it, or after five
jump in and swim it… |
| Lets talk about
the Capri Palace Hotel & Spa for a while. Tonino Cacace
owns the incredible Capri Palace Hotel and Spa. Mr. Cacace travels
the world bringing beauty, artifacts and elegance making this Hotel
truly one of a kind. Known as the “Hotel of Stars”,
because you can find such stars as Mariah Carey and Donatella Versace
and a slew of others soaking up its sheer beauty, the Capri Palace
Hotel and Spa can make anyone's dream come true for as long as they
like. The Capri Palace has 82 rooms, six with their own private gardens
and heated swimming pool; 9 luxuriously furnished suites among which
one finds the penthouse “Acropolis” bathed in sunlight,
boasting a marvelous Hot tub from where one can gaze at the stars
and across the sea. Not to mention the “Megaron”
Suite, a spectacular 150-square-meter apartment, featuring hanging
garden, private swimming pool, and an enchanting view of the Bay of
Naples. Click the following link to check out some Rooms and Sights.

the state of the art gymnasium so can work off some of those
incredible meals during your stay. Whatever it is you choose, you
will want to go over and over again! |
| Dinning at
the Capri Palace Hotel & Spa is simply a food lover's delight.
There are several restaurants in the hotel one of which happens to
be the restaurant “L' Olivo”. The comfort and surroundings
of this restaurant are overwhelming; the Mediterranean cuisine
is simply top notch. Service is indisputable, and afterwards
have a drink in the lovely piano lounge with its vaulted ceilings
and Louis XVI period furniture. Start the day out having breakfast
at “La Terrazza”, and breakfast may last up until
lunchtime because you will not want to leave. While lying out by the
magnificent heated pool, have lunch at “La Piscina”
and enjoy the very tasteful delights. |
| Honeymooners,
the Capri Palace Hotel & Spa is something you must think about.
They offer what I think is one of the most incredible honeymoon
packages around. Just check out what they offer: Four nights in
double room "classic" with a sea view including buffet breakfast,
Flowers, Champagne and fresh fruit in your room on arrival. •
One night on the Hotel's privately owned sailing yacht with an island
tour, dinner and breakfast on board. This sailing yacht called "South
Wind" with Massimo, as its skipper is simply fabulous.
• One picnic on Monte "Solaro", the highest point of
the island. • One treatment per person at the "Capri Beauty
Farm".• One guided visit of famous "Villa Jovis",
and you can Choose your own sandals hand-made by "Antonio",
Anacapri's famous artisan! I wish I was getting married again, this
is no question what I would book. You know what, the price is incredibly
reasonable for all you get too. Click on this Capri

Capri Palace Hotel & Spa has been one of the most incredible
places I have visited yet, the surroundings and people just make you
feel like royalty. When you go on vacation you need to be treated
