Considering the Hotel Antica Repubblica in Amalfi?
A VT member wrote the following comment about visiting Amalfi:
The coast by solopes
Steep slopes plung into the sea, here and there with small towns perching over each other or even over the water. It is really not much inviting to swim, with the small stripes of sand squeezed among houses and rocks. But it composes wonderful landscapes, making the tour of the peninsula a very pleasant day.
