We stayed at the Maresca hotel in Praiano for 11 nights in August. The excellent service started before we even stepped foot in Praiano. The owner of the hotel, Antonio, helped us book our Taxi transfer from the airport and the payment of the Taxi trip was made at the hotel to Antonio himself, which felt safe and hassle-free. At arrival we were pleasantly surprised by the hotel room. The rooms themselves are fresh with clean interior design, and an endless sea-view to die for from the room balcony. After a few days there was a vacancy in the (much bigger) room next to ours, and the owner kindly offered us to upgrade the room free of charge. What more can you ask for in terms of service-mindedness? The breakfast-area sports the same breathtaking view as the room balcony. The breakfast itself is continental and simple, it's what you expect from this type of hotel. There was bread, spread, ham, croissants, fruits (lots of figs) and a absolutely fantastic (homemade?) yoghurt available amongst other things. Antonio was very keen on recommending activities, trips and hikes, and gave us an idea of what was and what wasn't worth visiting. These recommendations were greatly appreciated. The Maresca hotel was overall a very pleasant surprise, and it's definitely worth a re-visit for our next trip to the Amalfi Coast.
