Latest Praiano hotel reviews
Jeannkelly Says: I should say that one of Praiano's charms is its sea with crystalline waters which can only be reached by foot. Almost a thousand steps from the town center (point of reference, Basilica San Gennaro), one goes down to a paved trail that goes all the way down to the sea....
Jeannkelly Says: Since Praiano is a town that overlooks the sea, the sea gives a beautiful dramatic backdrop of the setting sun. It is just one of the best things that you could get in Praiano.
Jeannkelly Says: The Basilica San Gennaro is a very important land mark of Praiano. For Italy to be a catholic country, one could expect that in small towns like Praiano, comunal activities of the townspeople are still centered on religious activities or that the church still plays a very...

Drive the Amalfi Coast road and visit Ravello.

barbskie Says: A Guard Tower of medieval origin. Built to watch the sea and alarm the town when the ships of saracen Pirates came for forays. As of this visit, this place is an artist studio. A must!
barbskie Says: Marina di Praia is located at the lower part of Praiano village. During the ancient times, it is only the landing point of the Plagianum. It is a narrow beach between two rocky walls at the mouth of the rough ravine of Praia, thus making it beautifully unique. it is an...

Bar del Sole: Everyone's favorite hang out!
Jeannkelly Says: Perhaps the most famous cafè or in italian "bar" in town. It is always crowded with people from morning to evening. One can go there for breakfast, sanck-time, light lunch, coffe-time, afternoon drinks and apperitivo. I think one has to stay in this place while in Praiano....
Il San Gennaro Trattoria - Pizzeria: Great Southern Italian dining
Jeannkelly Says: The Trattoria San Gennaro has been in business from some decades now run by the family of Salvatore. Thus, you have him as your maitre d', his daughter the waitress while his parents are in-charge of the kitchen. Ambience of the place is local with traditional Amalfina...

barbskie Says: Depending on what time of the year but a thin, light coat needs only a little space in your luggage. It is ideal for evening outings especially at the seasides. For first aide is a must. Just in case! A must!
dvideira Says: We can reach Furore by bus ( SITA line Positano-Amalfi ). Taking a bus in Praiano, as soon as it passes by La Praia, there comes a tunnel and about 2 kilometers later, there is a stop for Furore.
dvideira Says: Furore, a natural fjord (such gorges in Italy are called ?orridi? or horrids) clings to the mountain between the sea.Furore ia a good base for Amalfi Coast hikes - "Sentiero degli Dei". Furore is also protected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
