Great Place, shame about the host.

The location is great. The stairs are brutal with a suitcase, but I knew about that going in so I can't knock the place. The views for breakfast were great.

Check-in was a mess, the host said someone would meet us at the dock, but no one showed.

The host does not belong in customer service. I asked if we could have breakfast at 7 so we could have an early start and she told us we would have to make our own breakfast. She insisted breakfast should be at 8:30. Other hosts on the same trip had no issues with this request.

She made us two eggs for a family of four. When we asked for more she said \"ok, but this is your last one\".

She seemed impatient with us, like she had better things to do.

The view was incredible. There were a lot of stairs, but we were prepared for that and it was worth it. Mena was very accommodating, even making us an early breakfast the day we left.

Rooms were alright, we had two twins pushed together which was fine. The breakfast in the morning is incredible, they went over the top to make it wonderful and you have beautiful views while you eat.

Perfect!

The property manager, Carmela, was great in her communication prior to our arrival and during our stay. Her recommendations were spot on!! The location of II Porticciolo was even better than we thought. Quick walk to the plaza centers but far enough away to be quiet. Having breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea could not be a better way to start your day or finish it on the terrace with your wine. We can't wait to go back!!

Perfect location, million dollar view

We were met by Carmela, our host, who was very friendly, helpful and made sure we had a fantastic stay.
We had a lovely breakfast that she prepared for us and enjoyed this while sitting on the on the terrace overlooking the sea.
Our room was very clean and had a view to die for!!. A short walk along the pathway overlooking the sea bought you back into Amalfi's square where cafe's, bars restaurant's had great food.
My wife and myself would thorough recommend anyone wanting to stay at Amalfi, to stay at this picture perfect located B&B and we would definitely stay there again.

Simply Wonderful

Aside from the difficulty in reaching the hotel (not unexpected as this area is very hilly with lots of steps), we were truly impressed. From the start, we had great communication with the proprietor. Once we booked the hotel, she provided us with clear directions leading us to the hotel. She was also helpful in providing the best way to reach the area (bus/ferry), as well as details regarding transportation departure/arrivals times. The hotel was quaint, the room was clean and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be returning.

Amazing stay at Il Porticciolo!

I came here with my girlfriend for a 3 night stay on a trip across Europe and it was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the Amalfi Coast! We arrived late and the owner was very nice and accommodating for our late check in. The breakfast was served on top of the B&B overlooking the water and the incredible coast. The room was large and included a small kitchen. The owner went out of her way to give us tips on activities and places to go. I hope I can come back and stay at Il Porticciolo again soon becasue our stay really made the Amalfi Coast something we will never forget!

Wonderful hotel in a fantastic location

We stayed here for a week in June 2013. The hotel has a superb location overlooking the bay in Amalfi, a couple of minutes from the bus/ferry stops. Carmela is the perfect host, we were greeted on arrival and she then made us fresh lemonade. Perfect to cool down after a hot bus journey from Sorrento! She was helpful throughout, and arranged us a transfer back to Naples airport at the end of the trip.

Our room was a good size with a well equipped kitchenette and nice shower room. The bed was absolutely enormous and very comfortable, and A/C kept us cool at night. The room was kept spotlessly clean and all fittings are very modern. There was a TV and free internet access throughout the hotel.

The jewel in the crown of this place is the roof terrace. It offers simply breathtaking views of the harbour with comfortable chairs, tables and sun shades. Breakfast is served there, which was also excellent - ham, salami, cheese, croissants, toast, jam, cereal, yoghurt, cake, orange and coffee. We rarely needed lunch! The terrace is also free to use at any time, we took dinner and a bottle of wine up there in the evenings a couple of times.

I would fully recommend this hotel to anyone, the location and the high standard of service from Carmela make it an absolute no-brainer for anyone looking to stay in Amalfi!

La pasamos genial en Amalfi.

El lugar es una belleza, la vista desde la habitación un verdadero sueño, el desayuno en la terraza mirando el mar es algo que no podés perderte. La atención es muy amable. La dificultad para llegar es la que describen y detallan en la página, los escalones que con valijas y mochilas se hacen largos pero el lugar y la habitación valen la pena.

Room with view

We stayed 2 nights coming from Roma in Nov. 2015. The apartemnt was great and the view and scenery outside exelent. A small drawback is the close to 200 stairs to climb, but once done the view will blow you away. The staff had to be contacted by phone in oreder to check in, since the lobby is staffed only soem times during day. Breakfast and terrace fro meals was just great. The tasff was friendly and helpful. Please note bad cellphone coverage just outside room, so call / mail in advance.

Vi hadde booket rom til familie på fem men fikk kun senger til fire personer med beskjed om at dette var hotels.com sin feil. På tross av at vi måtte løse denne utfordringen noe kreativt på egen hånd gir vi hotellet høy score, for dette er en liten B&B med stor sjarm med blant annet god service, renslige rom og god frokost! Og så har det jo sin sjarm å gå opp gjennom byens mange trappetrinn! ;) Anbefaler dette for både par og familier.

Genuine and lovely with beautiful view.

We really enjoyed our stay at Il Porticciolo. We choose Amalfi to stay for three nights when exploring the Amalfi coast, and it turned out to be the perfect choice. You can easily reach Ravello (by bus), Capri, Positano and beaches close by (by boat) from there, and enjoy the nice cite centre and restaurants in Amalfi.
The hotel is super nice, yet simple. Only five rooms which makes it very personal, and Carmela and her staff is truly helpful and will go out of their way to assist with everything you might need. Their hospitality and kind manners, a long with the view over the bay from the terass (no balconies in the rooms) makes up for what every you might miss in aspects of luxury. Note that there are many steps to reach the hotell which makes it a bit of an exercise when arriving with baggage.
We did not miss anything when staying here, even though we always wish for balcony, and perhaps a bar or restaurant in hotels, and I will highly recommend it and for sure go back when visiting the coast again. A more warm, genuine and beautiful experience is hard to find.
