Hotel Cetus was very nice. Room with water view was spacious. The flushing mechanism was a bit wonky, and the floor got a bit dirty. Otherwise, it was comfortable and the service was excellent. Resturant staff was very good and the barman Danielo was fantastic. He was helpful and generous and a delight! Resturant dinner was excellent; each fish perfectly prepared. The deserts were a step above. Best, most creative tiramisu I’ve ever eaten!

Nice hotel, great breakfast, close to ferry port. Cons, not many food options for lunch and dinner at the hotel, and not there aren't many good restaurants near by. If you have a car or bike and can travel easily to other town for food, entertainment and activities then its ok.

This property was absolutely lovely. Our room had a wonderful terrace with a gorgeous view of the sea. The private beach and restaurant were such an amazing luxury. We could easily walk or take the shuttle into town. From town we dined at Michelin rated restaurants in the evening. Also from town we took the ferry to various cities along the Amalfi coast. The staff at Hotel Cetus were extremely helpful and courteous. I highly recommend this hotel!
