Villa Ketty absolutely outdid every expectation we had. Antonio, his family and all the staff truly went above and beyond to give us a taste of Italian hospitality and la dolce vita. I have very little words to describe how kind, loving and friendly all the members from the staff were. Il papa handing out fresh flower bouquets, lovely sweets and limoncello from Sylvia and the cutest dog Cicco coming to say hi every now and then when sunbathing under the lemon trees. Not to mention the wonderful local and homemade food. The breakfast is absolutely otherworldly with countless local, organic and homemade ingredients. There’s no “standard” hotel buffet that comes close to this! Also dinner is tremendous with a new Neapolitan dish every day. Lastly, the location is absolutely breathtaking: Having the most gorgeous view over the Vico Equense bay eand Vesuvius and Napoli in the distance. A sunset dinner here is not only mandatory but priceless! The train station with easy connection to Pompeii, Sorrento and Napoli is a 10 min walk (quite hilly but worth every step along the way). We are definitely coming again. Grazie mille!!!

Nothing, perfection

Villa Ketty is an absolute gem! We stayed for 4 days as a group of friends. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left Antonia & his amazing team couldn't do enough for us. Nothing is too much trouble. The villa is set up in the hills with a spectacular view. The food is all locally sourced & top quality! We had a triple room which was large, comfortable, spotlessly clean but quite basic. Special thanks to Denise for her incredible breakfast (i wont spoil the surprise), Ferdando for his cocktail making, Mario his hospitality.... even picking lemons for us to try (so fresh & sweet you can eat the whole thing!).

There are not enough words to describe this place. You arrive in Paradise. Villa Ketty Resort is a splendid place where you can breathe the air of Italy. Villa Ketty is a fairy tale where I definitely fall in love with that area. We started our journey on Amalfi Coast with Vico Equense and we were lucky to find wonderful people at Villa Ketty. The breakfast reflects the passion of Villa Ketty’s owner to make all their guests feel perfect, the infinite variety of cheese, the hand made cakes, the taste of the food….The view…. OMG, it can be described, you must go there. And the people are absolutely special, very kind, nice, and polite. Humanity won the big pride here, with these wonderful people. We will definitely come back to Villa Ketty. Next year will be there, for sure. You can go there to rechage your battery, to read, to write, to enjoy your family only, and to stay with yourself, to rink a good coffe, to admire the view, to drink a good wine, or just to breath the Paradise. Thank you for all!

We read amazing reviews here, but the villa reality exceeded our expectations! Everything here was perfect, the rooms, the service, the hospitality, the atmosphere and the perfect food. Spacious rooms, furnished in country atmosphere with a separate entrance. Super clean rooms, include air conditioning, an amazing bathroom, a small refrigerator, a kettle, tea and coffee. The view from the rooms and from all corners of the villa is simply breathtaking! In the center of the villa is a fairly large pool, sun beds and lots of hiding places where you can catch a moment of peace. The service we received from Antonia, his wife and the rest of the team was simply impeccable, warm, pleasant and they did everything in their power to make us feel at home, starting with the personal serving of breakfasts, amazing tips about the area and just a friendly and pleasant conversation! The owners of the villa have a private indoor parking lot in the town center, where you can park for free. The owner and staff will happily and quickly pick you up at a parking lot or other location in the town. But there is no need for a car in the town itself, you can easily and quickly reach anywhere on foot. The town where the villa is located is in a strategic location, you can easily reach Naples, Sorrento or Pompeii by train or by car to all the towns on the Amalfi Coast. You can take a cruise to Capri, Antonio can also help with this. In conclusion, we had a perfect experience that we will never forget! Highly recommended!!! Definitely a perfect place, to which we will definitely return!

Every single minute from arrival. Antonio and Denise along with every single member of staff are the best hosts... friendly, helpful, attentive and welcoming. The room was amazing (we had number 10) with a stunning view across the bay, down to the beach and up to the mountains. The place is set on levels as you'd expect and the layout is superb. The pool is great as is the bar and dining area. Breakfast is a theatrical experience and the food was delicious. We walked easily to the beach but there's other options if it's not a choice to walk. Libion is a lovely friendly little dog as well who loves a bit of attention. Cannot recommend Villa Ketty highly enough.... outstanding. Thank you!

Absolutely nothing not to like

The hotel far exceeded our expectations and is one of the best accommodations we have ever experienced. Both the view and the location are simply breathtaking. The host couple and the entire team (Chiara, Felice, Fernando) are extremely accommodating and always attentive to their guests. Breakfast was an absolute highlight—the beautifully designed breakfast room and the option to dine both indoors and outdoors made the experience unforgettable. We've never had such a delightful breakfast! Mainly regional or homemade products are used. This hotel is truly unique and comes highly recommended.

Everything felt just right for us.

Well......what a place! The whole time we were here we felt like we were millionaires! the service was the best we have ever had. The rooms were beautiful and the whole resort was gorgeous! We ate there 5 of our 7 nights because the food was proper home made italian cooking! The pizza night was fun! The staff make the experience just that more special. Adeli, Fernando, Sylvie, Melanie, Filicia, Francesco all work so hard alongside Antonio and Denise to make everyone feel a million dollars! Antonio and Denise have made their breakfast an experience like no other! Just WOW! I could go on and on but nothing I say will adequately describe what has simply been an experience like no other! After all the cities we did first, this was a wee bit of paradise and we will definitely be back! Thanks so much for everything.

Leaving. I definitely did not like leaving!

We flew into Rome, took the high speed train to Naples, then the commuter train from Naples to Vico Equense. Be prepared: The Naples-to-Vico Equense trek is 29 stops, but very inexpensive. We called Antonio to ask if we could get a ride to the resort from the train station. Ten minutes later we were comfortably in our spacious room that had a window overlooking the Mediterranean. While Antonio graciously offered to drive us to and from town, we chose to explore everything on foot, including a trip to the marina and catching a train to Sorrento for shopping. Vico Equense was easy to get to, with good food but limited shopping, and was safe. We felt like Vico Equense gave us more an authentic Italian coast experience than in Sorrento (including a delicious Panini sandwich in the lower level of the Wembley Restaurant watching a soccer match with the locals) . Going to Sorrento and examining some of the hotels I had considered made me even happier that we stayed at Villa Ketty. In March, the trees were just beginning to bud but the lemons were fully ripe and Antonio and Denise used these in traditional family recipes to serve the guests, especially at Breakfast. And what a breakfast. Everything was locally sourced, organically grown and deliciously satisfying. Fresh squeezed orange juice, incredible cappuccinos, smoked cheese, freshly baked quiche, fruit, breads, greens with cherry tomatoes in a mild balsamic vinegar, homemade jams and fruit spreads, thinly sliced prosciutto, and more. Antonio serves you while at the same time sharing a bit about his family history on the property and how some of the breakfast items are made. I felt healthy eating there without sacrificing any of the drawbacks of a "healthy" diet (if you know what I mean). It's no wonder that guests come back annually to the Villa Ketty resort!!!

Beautiful surroundings and the most amazing view from the rooms and the terraces. The photos on here are accurate. Cozy small hotel, quiet, nice, clean and also a pool with a bar (if you order lemonade they will literally pick the lemons from the trees and serve it freshly made). Breakfast was magnificent - freshly produced, organic and very varied. Always served by the owners with a smile. Best I have had in a hotel. Rooms clean and of a good size and tastefully decorated. We ended up having dinner here most evenings since the food and the atmosphere was so great. Do not miss the "pizza party" where meter long pizzas are served to the tones of live Italian music. The staff is so helpful and friendly - from Antonio and his wife (the owners) to Fernando (waiter) - all with a keen eye for details. This place cannot be recommended enough.

I liked everything.

This is one of the most charming places we have stayed at. Words can’t do justice to the experience. Our hosts and owners, Antonio and Denise, along with all the lovely staff, made us feel so welcome and looked after. The breakfast is incredible, the setting and views are magical, overlooking the sea, the pool is relaxing and so refreshing, the bedrooms so spacious and clean. The location is quiet and peaceful but so easily accessible to the main sights of the area- we went to pompeii, capri, sorrento, Positano and Amalfi in the week we were there. Thank you Antonio and Denise for the most wonderful stay - we hope to come again!
