Agerola is a small municipality with limited accommodation options compared to its famous neighbors. It is best suited for travelers seeking tranquility and nature rather than nightlife. For those prioritizing hotel variety and loyalty program footprints, consider staying in nearby Positano or Amalfi town, which offer more extensive hospitality infrastructure while remaining close to Agerola's scenic appeal.
The nearest major airport is Naples International Airport (NAP). Reaching the airport from Agerola involves navigating the winding roads of the Amalfi Coast. Travelers should expect a journey time of over an hour, often requiring a combination of local buses, taxis, or private transfers to connect with the main highway leading to Naples. Public transport can be infrequent, so planning ahead is essential.
The best times to visit Agerola and the surrounding Amalfi Coast are spring (April-June) and autumn (September-October), when the weather is mild and ideal for hiking and sightseeing. Summer months, particularly July and August, bring heavy crowds and traffic congestion on the narrow coastal roads. Winter may see reduced services and some accommodations closing, making the shoulder seasons the most practical choice for travelers.

The former Furore Inn hotel has reopened with a new contemporary Mediterranean look and a new name (the Furore Grand Hotel ), along with a new gourmet restaurant, the Bluh Furore. Boasting a white colour scheme, minimalist decor and attractive sea views, the restaurant is headed by executive chef Vincenzo Russo under the banner of famous three-Michelin-starred Enrico Bartolini, who is behind some of its legendary signature dishes, such as the half-fried prawn. The menu focuses on modern dishes that feature recipes and ingredients from Campania. A vegetarian tasting menu completes the picture.
WebsiteHoused within the Monastero Santa Rosa, one of the most original and iconic hotels on the Amalfi Coast (the monastery was founded in the 17C and some of its original features can still be seen), this restaurant occupies a spectacular terrace in a magical, tranquil setting with views that extend from the garden to the swimming pool and right out to sea. The cuisine comes courtesy of Alfonso Crescenzo, whose slogan “Nothing is more complex than simple cuisine” lies behind his tasteful reinterpretations of Campania’s traditional dishes, which are natural, full of generous flavours and beautifully
WebsiteBorgo Santandrea is a luxurious hotel along the Amalfi Coast, just outside Conca dei Marini, and Alici is its fineding, both symbols of Italian beauty. Beyond an interior dining room with vintage-style furniture, dinners always take place on the magnificent terrace with its blue and azure majolica floor, reverberating the splendour of the sky and sea. Chef Crescenzo Scotti clearly loves pleasant places: we remember him previously in Ravello and before that - with a star - on the island of Vulcano. Here he returns with skill and expertise to his favourite territory, that is, the flavours of the
WebsiteAn atmospheric panoramic lift leads from the Casa Angelina hotel to the restaurant: in good weather you can dine on a terrace, by candlelight and with a breathtaking view of the Coast. Leopoldo Elefante's cuisine is Mediterranean and largely dedicated to the sea, although there is never a shortage of excellent meat specialities. Not to be missed is his “soufflé alla pastiera”, a signature dish that combines an international dessert with typically Neapolitan flavours. Great care is given to presentation and the lighting uses various colours to accompany the guest through the different courses,
WebsiteSituated just outside Amalfi with the elegant Mediterranean landscapes of the Amalfi Coast as a backdrop, this fine-dining restaurant at the beautiful Santa Caterina hotel is perched above the sea and boasts stunning views and a tranquil ambience. Talented chef “Peppe” Stanzione from Salerno is at the helm here, having gained experience in renowned Michelin-starred restaurants in places as far afield as California, Australia, China and Thailand. While his passion for Asia is obvious in some dishes, it is the flavours and recipes of Campania that are to the fore, combined with other more exotic
WebsiteThe legendary San Pietro hotel is one of the world's most celebrated, the jewel of Positano and the Amalfi Coast. Within its illustrious walls lies this restaurant whose tremendous success (book considerably in advance is advised), aside from its undoubtedly enchanting location, owes much to the expertise of Belgian Chef Alois Vanlangenaeker, who has been here for over 20 years. His cuisine harmoniously and elegantly narrates the strength, fragrances, and flavours of the Mediterranean, primarily using the Campanian language that remains pure in tradition as the meal begins with a freshly baked
WebsiteLa Caravella’s history is intricately linked to that of gastronomic tourism on the Amalfi Coast, so much so that it’s impossible to mention all the famous personalities who have dined here and fallen in love with the Dipino family’s cuisine. The food is proudly inspired by local and family traditions, while at the same time constantly seeking to reinterpret these traditions and create new imaginative recipes. Examples include pears cooked in Aglianico wine served with raw shrimps and cow’s ricotta cheese, and raw fish and seafood options accompanied by a careful selection of seasonal vegetable
