Hotel Cetus was unlike any hotel I've ever stayed at. First, when you arrive you'll realize that you can't even see a hotel. It's all below on the cliff! All you see from the road is a tiny parking lot and an elevator shaft. Because the hotel is built into the cliff and overlooks the sea, the views are incredible! All the service staff from the reception to housekeeping to the restaurants are 5 star plus. You'll quickly realize that everything on the Amalfi Coast is pricey and it's very challenging to drive around. And don't even think about walking from the hotel - dangerous! I highly recommend trying their on-site restaurant for dinner. The restaurant has fantastic food and outstanding service. You'll get a lot for your money. The hotel has it's own beach, offers an amazing full breakfast with everything you can think of, and has a beach restaurant. The only drawback to Hotel Cetus is also it's advantage, it's not within walking distance of a town or near anything so you have to brave the extreme traffic to get anywhere. The plus side is after you've been out you're SO HAPPY to be back to some place quiet and away from the crowds!

Words cannot describe how much we enjoyed our stay at Hotel Cetus. The hotel is stunning with gorgeous views of the Amalfi Coast- it was breathtaking. The room was comfortable and clean. Every meal we had, breakfast especially, was delicious. Every staff member was so kind, extremely professional and always exceptional service. Cetara is a perfect seaside town with none of the crowds of other large towns along the coast. The food was delicious and people were so kind. I already cannot wait to go back!

The hotel was wonderful. Sea views and private beach were amazing. The breakfast each day were excellent and staff very accommodating and polite. The only caution is the lack of shuttle throughout the day to Cetera for lunch/dinner or ferry access. Paid drivers at $3 per person added up for a multi-day stay.
