Great rooms with a gorgeous sea view and the hotel has a private serviced beach with excellent service. We requested a vegan breakfast and were provided with a full spread of options, including specially prepared vegan croissants every morning.

This is very nitpicky and it’s the only drawback: the access to the hotel from the village if you’re not driving is through a busy road with no side walks. There’s a shuttle service but it’s not free. Would be amazing if the hotel could provide a free shuttle service (at least for arrivals and departures into Cetara if you’re coming by ferry). There’s a shuttle service but it costs 3€ per person each way and it’s not always reliable. However this location does mean that you get amazing views and a private beach.

View from our room was so beautiful - directly looking at the sea We had our own large balcony with sunbeds - fabulous Staff throughout the hotel so attentive and pleasant. Elena at reception really 'went the extra mile' to help us with our queries Private beach for hotel guests only - great service of food and drinks from friendly staff Bedroom large and so comfortable. So quiet and peaceful The entire hotel was spotlessly clean Superb shuttle service up and down to Cetara, always available

No complaints, everything was excellent

Loved the incredible location and breathtaking view. The staff was very helpful. We were surprised that our room didn't have facilities for making tea/coffee (apparently only the more expensive rooms have which in a 4 star hotel is disappointing) but when we asked we were given a kettle and tea cups and tea bags. The description said shower, in reality there was an unusually high bathtub which if we'd known about it we would not have taken the room. When we brought it up they arranged a step stool which solved the problem. We definitely recommend the hotel.

We chose this place to be out of the tourist area and because of the private beach. For us private beach made it worth it and Cetara is such a nice authentic experience. Easy enough to get around to other touristy cities if that's what you're interested in. Rocky beach bring water shoes

Staff could have been more helpful with getting around. We went to Amalfi by bus and we had looked up that last bus back to Cetara was 11, but last bus was canceled who knew that was possible and we had to spend 180 euro on a cab. Called hotel for assistance they couldn't help. Similar issues when asking about train transfer to Pompeii. A few helpful tips would have gone a long way for us

This is a wonderful hotel at a great location but the beach really is indescribable - it is so wonderful to have a private beach (and free parking!) at the hotel that can be accessed via elevator, while the cliffs and stairs obviously make the charm of the Amalfi coast, travelling it 35* degree heat or with 60-70 year old family members, it was truly wonderful to have this easy - it really felt like a holiday. The main waitor is also super friendly and the reception staff organized a private hairdresser for my dad to get a haircut in our room!

While the food is really special and delicious, it was rather hard to get tables and food took some time to arrive. Some staff members did not seem too too friendly, while others made up for it by being very sweet. It is also not easy to reach the town or other restaurants by foot, as the street is quite curvy and the ledge is very low.

The property is wonderful. The staff is amazing and so helpful. After a day of adventuring along the Amalfi coast Hotel Cetus was a peaceful oasis. Having a private beach was fantastic - always a chair and umbrella available (water shoes are helpful). The restaurant is excellent. It is a 10 min walk to Cetara for dining or to catch a ferry. Highly recommend Hotel Cetus.

I wish the a/c was a little more powerful.

The view from the hotel was fantastic, accompanied by the soothing sound of waves nearby. We particularly enjoyed the dinner, which was of high quality. Despite it not being the season, we were pleased to find access to the private beach, although umbrellas were not available. Cetara is a picturesque fishing town with some of the friendliest people you'll encounter. We found its unique allure to surpass that of other towns along the coast.

Accessing the hotel without a car or taxi can be challenging. Additionally, while the hotel is conveniently located near attractions, navigating the cliffside without sidewalks can be intimidating for pedestrians.

Incredible location, super friendly and helpful staff, spotlessly clean, amazing views and fantastic private beach, and only five minute walk into town! Restaurant was also excellent. Recommend getting ‘swimming shoes’ for the pebble beach - they sell them at the beach bar but also in town for a bit cheaper. Great value for money for a 4* establishment.

Only (minor) criticism was a bit of flaky paint on one wall in the room, due to damp from the humidity and sea air. As I said, very minor criticism and wasn’t in the slightest bit an issue.

The room was spectacular. Clean, roomy, comfortable king bed, gorgeous balcony, woke up every morning to a sunrise over the water. Breathtaking. Restaurant and bar on-site. And parking! Away from Amalfi crowds. Loved this place! Breakfast was great. The staff were very quick to offer coffee or omelets. Delicious food, great selection.

The night manager could have been a bit nicer. At one point we left the car keys at the front desk because we were blocking other cars. He seemed to be annoyed to take the keys. Same guy checked us in on our first night and seemed irritated that we checked in late.

Cannot discribe how nice this hotel is. The view is extraordinary. You are literally looking at the sea and nothing else. Most beautiful view ever. The room was a very good size. The town of Cetara according to us was the best on the Amalfi coast as it was not as crowded as the others. The restaurants were great and not pretentious and expensive like the ones in the other towns. We really enjoyed our stay. You can spend hours on the hotel balcony.

Wish there was somewhere to have lunch in the hotel besides the beach club. The little town of Cetara is 5 mins drive and shuttles are very easy to get for just €3/- each and the town has some lovely places to eat. Its just on one of those lazy days you have to go to the beach club for lunch. This is not a negative at all just a wish. :-)
