  : Pino and his staff were fantastic, very helpful with everything we had questions about in amalfi. The setting is beautiful and the food at the restaurant was delicious.
  : It was a little noisy at times, we could hear the water systems from other rooms, but this didn't affect our overall experience.

  : Overall this is a great place to stay. It's well run and the (family?) owners are thoughtful, friendly and helpful. It feels something like a small hotel spread between several buildings on the mountainside. Our room was in a separate building, reached by quite a few stairs, with its own off-street parking, which made it feel a little like an apartment even though really it was just a room. There's a restaurant on site, with views, which is pretty good and usually quite busy and, as a result, more vibey than I expected. The rooms are simply but nicely decorated, with high ceilings and tasteful use of tiles, wooden furniture, decorative ceramic light fixtures, little ceramic tables, and local Amalfi-style decor features. A pair of French doors with both net and proper curtains, plus working faux-wooden shutters, led onto a tiny terrace, actually more of a balcony, with amazing sea views. The bed was comfortable with a top sheet and a rather fine blanket. The pillows were not crazy thick. Everything was impressively clean. The wifi worked great and was not hard to access. The bathroom was large, with both overhead and mirror lighting, and the shower worked well. An iron was available on request. The air con worked well and was easy to control. Breakfast is served on an open-air terrace, with a nice range of continental options and decent coffee. I really liked the inclusion of traditional Italian cakes and things like grilled zucchini and melanzane. It was a relaxing place to stay, up on the hillside, with no road noise and, for the most part, only a distant cockerel and the bells of some goats interrupting the silence. It's a good option if you have a car or don't mind catching buses.
  : Some suggestions for improvement, but they are minor. The shower was above a large jacuzzi bath, with no shower curtain. The shower head had been mounted very low on the wall to minimize spray, yet still regularly wetted the bathroom floor. I personally would have preferred a conventional shower. In the bathroom, space to put toiletry bags would be helpful. In the wardrobe, I could happily use twice as many hangers. At breakfast, it would be good to have more granola/muesli options, including nuts and seeds, and a non-dairy milk (eg. almond). At night it was hard to find good settings for the air conditioner, we were either too hot or too cold -- I think the trick was to put it in a different mode. An ironing board would be useful for crazy people who like to iron. Occasionally we could hear the music of the neighboring rooms. Due to the spread-out style of accommodation and the number of stairs, I wouldn't recommend to people who have mobility problems.

  : Fantastic views from the room and the restaurants. Very quiet location, yet only a short drive away from Amalfi ant the famous coast. Free and safe parking for the car. Nice breakfast and excellent food and wine in the evening, in a very nice setting underneath the lemon trees. Last but certainly not least, all staff members are very friendly and welcoming.
  : Just one minor thing: I struggled a bit with the many buttons in shower but that's only a detail. Overall we had a really a great stay.

  : Warm welcome and very nice room, with great view on the sea. Owner and staff very forthcoming, Very comfortable room, modern bathroom. Very good breakfast. Under every aspect, this is an almost perfect place to stop for two or three days during a trip in this wonderful region. We had only a one-night stay, but can absolutely recommend Fico D'India Relais.
  : The owner is not guilty for that of course, but one has to know that arriving to the location at dark requests quite a good expertise in driving, since when you come from the littoral zone the road is uphill, narrow and tortuous. It is recommended to arrive by daylight. An important thing to know, but which doesn't diminish the very high quality of Fico D'India Relais.
