Vesuvius Over Coffee

Perched above Marina Grande's historic fishing harbour, this apartment puts the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius directly in your sightline – from the terrace, the living room, even the kitchen. Mornings here have a particular rhythm: coffee on the terrace as fishing boats head out, the water catching the light below. The cobalt tilework in the bathroom and the colourful kitchen give the interiors a distinctly Sorrentine personality. Seafood restaurants and beach clubs are on the doorstep, and the harbour makes organising a private boat trip straightforward. Sorrento's main square is a ten to fifteen-minute walk uphill.

Home truths:
* You'll reach the apartment via around fifty steps from street level, with no lift. If you're travelling with heavy luggage, your host can arrange a luggage service on request for an extra charge.
* This apartment is not suitable if you have reduced mobility – the steps to reach it cannot be bypassed.
* No car is needed here – Marina Grande's restaurants and beach clubs are right outside, and Sorrento centre is a ten-to-fifteen-minute walk away. Capri and the wider coast are easily reached by ferry or boat from the harbour.
* At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
* Your host can provide a cot for little ones upon request.
