Belmond Caruso, Ravello Italy

The infinity pool at Belmond Caruso in Ravello, Italy with bright turquoise water, white sun loungers and a daybed on the stone pool deck, and the Mediterranean Sea stretching to the horizon beyond the infinity edge of the pool with a great pool bar

You may never want to leave this pool. No judgment.

Why It’s Alair-Approved

I went to Caruso for a milestone birthday, and it is still my absolute favorite gem on the Amalfi Coast. It is a little hideaway in hilltop Ravello, an 11th-century palazzo high above the sea, with views to die for. You may never want to leave the pool. But try.

The views from Caruso never get old.

When to Go

Caruso is seasonal, open spring through autumn and closed in the winter. May and June are the sweet spot, with the gardens in bloom and the coast awake but not yet at peak summer pitch. September is the other smart play, warm seas, softer light, and Ravello breathing again after August crowds thin out even more.

Insider Tip

Stay long enough to do the coast properly, and long enough to do absolutely nothing. Go hiking, eat farm-to-table, get on the boat, do the beach club, take the food tour, eat all the things, and drink the limoncello. Actually get a taste of the place.

Lose a couple of hours in the Pascal ceramics factory in Ravello, pick something fabulous, and have it shipped home. Your suitcase will thank you, and when it arrives, so will the memories.

Then retreat back to the quiet. Day visitors wander through Ravello, but behind the Caruso gates you would never know they were there. The gardens, the food, the space, the pool: your own little secret haven, perched in the clouds overlooking the Mediterranean.

Private boat trip on the Amalfi Coast during a stay at Belmond Caruso in Ravello: a classic black open motorboat with an Italian flag carrying passengers across calm blue Mediterranean water, with the town of Amalfi cascading down the cliff behind it

Enjoy a Boat Trip to explore the ruins of Pompeii, or get dropped off for a day of shopping and dining in nearby Positano.
