Ravello is simply one of the most charming locations on the Amalfi Coast.
Not only does it offer breathtaking panoramas from its two famous gardens, Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone, it also has a lovely village centre with Piazza Duomo and the Duomo (cathedral) itself as its centrepiece. Ravello's narrow pedestrianised streets are lined with shops and there is no shortage of elegant cafes and restaurants. |

The stunning hilltop location is especially welcome during the hot summer months for visitors to the coastal towns below such as Amalfi which is a half an hour bus ride away.
Take a stroll away from Piazza Duomo up an oleander-lined path and you'll reach the upper part of town where there are a selection of luxury hotels affording iconic views down on to the Amalfi Coast. Ravello has a distinct air of glamour and as such is a popular location for wedding ceremonies.
Ravello is also famous for its annual festivals which are held at the incredible Auditorium Oscar Niemeyer.
