Three reasons why you'll love it here

1. Alfonso Iaccarino's spectacular Mediterranean cuisine
2. Exclusive gourmet getaways on the Sorrentine Peninsula
3. A bite-size luxury hotel in the peaceful town of Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi

Boutique Hotel Don Alfonso 1890 is in the village of Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi on the Sorrentine Peninsula, just a few kilometres from the celebrated Amalfi Coast and its breathtaking scenery. Guests who arrive at Don Alfonso are those seeking a genuine gourmet holiday, because before being a charming relais, Don Alfonso is a Michelin-starred restaurant. Member of Relais & Châteaux.

A one-of-a-kind boutique hotel

Artists and intellectuals have gathered here for generations, among them the poet Salvatore Di Giacomo, drawn by the peace and beauty of the place. Every suite reflects the perfect balance between past and present: original 18th and 19th-century furnishings owned by the Iaccarino family alongside contemporary elements handcrafted by artisans of the Sorrentine Peninsula. No two rooms are alike.

The hotel's 8 rooms, across Standard, Junior Suite, Suite and Suite Superior categories, have been completely renovated, repainted and refurnished in vivid colours while remaining faithful to the classic Mediterranean style.

Pastel walls meet bold accents, Murano glass chandeliers and Vietri majolica, creating a play of colour and light that blends the sense of a place of real charm with a warm, familiar atmosphere.

The Suite Superior (55 sqm), in shades of pink and fuchsia, is a perfect example: a spacious bedroom, an internal sitting room and an external one on a furnished 35 sqm terrace with sofas and armchairs. A Jacuzzi in the private bathroom completes the luxury.

A Michelin-starred dinner at Don Alfonso 1890

The culinary tradition at Don Alfonso starts with breakfast: a generous and exquisite Mediterranean organic breakfast, homemade jams, tarts and Campanian specialities, to awaken the body and mind with the finest quality produce.

A stay here calls for at least one dinner at Ristorante Don Alfonso 1890, where the chefs combine the ancient culinary traditions of the Sorrentine Peninsula and the Amalfi Coast with uniquely contemporary interpretations. The restaurant is set inside a 19th-century Neapolitan palazzo: rooms glow in the colours of the Mediterranean maquis, lilac, yellow, orange and pink, wrapping guests in the atmosphere of Southern Italy.

What makes each dish unique is the produce grown on the 7-hectare organic farm "Le Peracciole", Alfonso Iaccarino's property overlooking Capri: exceptional extra virgin olive oil, the house lemon liqueur and the vegetables that go into the restaurant's finest dishes. Farm products are also available online through the E-Shop.

The gastronomic authority of Don Alfonso extends to an exclusive cooking school for hotel guests, where the secrets of Mediterranean and, in particular, Campanian cuisine are passed on.

Around Boutique Hotel Don Alfonso 1890

There's no shortage of ways to relax at Don Alfonso: a swim in the outdoor pool, a book from the library or an afternoon stroll through the lemon grove. Beyond the hotel, the beaches of Nerano, Massa Lubrense and Punta Campanella are within easy reach, as are the gems of the Amalfi Coast, Positano, Amalfi and Ravello.
