World-Class Hospitality in the Heart of Sorrento

Ara Maris delivers world class hospitality with exceptional service, breathtaking views, and an unforgettable guest experience. Our stay at Ara Maris in Sorrento was nothing short of spectacular. Having traveled extensively to some of the world’s most beautiful destinations, we have grown accustomed to a certain level of care and attention, and Ara Maris exceeded it with ease. It is quickly becoming a new boutique favorite for us. I was almost hesitant to share this experience, as part of me wanted to keep it as our own little hidden treasure, but it would be unjust not to recognize this exceptional hotel and its incredible staff. From the very beginning, the level of communication and attentiveness from the staff was remarkable. Every detail, every arrangement, and every thoughtful gesture was handled with genuine care, making us feel not just welcomed, but truly valued. A heartfelt thank you to Laura, Roberta, Giuliana, Giusy, Enrico, Valentina and her wonderful spa team, as well as the entire staff across the hotel. The professionalism, warmth, and dedication we experienced were outstanding. Every interaction reflected a team that truly cares about creating a memorable and seamless stay for their guests. I am certain I may have unintentionally left out some names, but you know who you are, and each of you contributed to making our stay truly special and unforgettable. They also arranged a private boat tour for us with Joseph, which was truly unforgettable. The experience was seamless from start to finish and included a stop at a beautiful seaside restaurant, where the same level of attention, care, and quality continued. It was one of the highlights of our trip. The dining experiences within the hotel were equally exceptional. From the refined atmosphere at Cora Bistrot to the stunning rooftop setting at Lumi Bar, every moment was elevated by breathtaking views and exquisite cuisine curated under the direction of a Michelin starred chef. Ara Maris is more than just a beautiful hotel, it delivers a level of service and hospitality that leaves a lasting impression. It was truly an unforgettable experience, and we absolutely plan on returning.

At this price point (~£500 per room per night) expectations for a five-star experience are naturally high. My stay was a mix of genuine Mediterranean bliss and some frustrating hurdles. The "bones" of this hotel are fantastic, and the atmosphere is exactly what you hope for in Sorrento. Service & Staff is where the hotel truly shines. The team is warm, professional, and clearly cares about the guest experience. Well done and thank you to Conny, Carmen, Gaetano, Laura, Martina, Roberta and Valentina (to mention but a few). The property grounds are stunning. The gardens are beautifully manicured, offering a lush, serene escape. And the vistas from the property are breathtaking and definitely a major selling point. I found the breakfast spread to be high quality and varied. Additionally, the spa is wonderful. Unfortunately, two significant issues prevented this from being a perfect stay: 1) Noise - Directly outside the hotel, there is a large, loose manhole cover. Every time a car passes over it, it creates a loud, metallic racket. This was consistent enough to keep me awake at night, which is far from ideal when you’re paying for a luxury retreat; and 2) Drainage Issues: There was a persistent, foul drainage stench emanating from the bathroom (both the toilet and bidet). To the staff's credit, they were responsive. They moved me to a different room; however, the new room suffered from the exact same issues. As a goodwill gesture, the management offered a complimentary massage, which was a lovely touch and greatly appreciated. I genuinely liked Ara Maris and the people who run it. However, at this price point, guests shouldn't have to choose between a bad smell or a noisy street. If the hotel can resolve these maintenance and soundproofing issues, it would be a world-class destination which I would visit again.

Wonderful hotel. Top notch service, the food was great, the suite we had was phenomenal with a great balcony view. Heated pool was awesome. Great location to walk, explore and to get to the ferry . Can’t say enough about this hotel.
