Thanks for making my first visit to Italy so memorable and relaxing and great fun. Loved the hotel and it really made the stay for me, my first holiday alone and it has spurred me on to travel more, thanks.

Dear Reception,
I just wanted to say thankyou for making our holiday so enjoyable. We stayed at the Aminta from 24th May until 31st and absolutely loved it, the hotel was amazing and the location beautiful. I have recommended you to everyone that I know. Also I apologise at forgetting your name, but there was a receptionist with short brown hair who was extremely helpful to us when organising trips and you made our holiday, so thank you.
Hopefully we will come back and see you in the future.
Kind regards,
Linzi Perriman and Huw Semken

Our stay at the Grand Aminta Hotel was the final leg of our Italy by train holiday. After visiting Venice, Florence, & Rome we planned to have 5 days of relaxation! and that is exactly what we got. The hotel, staff, food & attentive service was excellent & we have no hesitation in recommending the hotel and we will be returning thats for sure. Thank you.
Best wishes & kind regards,

A big thank you to all the staff at the Grand Aminta Hotel. We have had a great holiday and you have looked after us very well. We were not disappointed in anything, good food and excellent service. The hotel is a credit to you all, it is after all only a building, it is you, the people that staff it that make it what it is.
Many thanks for a wonderful holiday we hope to return and visit you again some time in the future.
Kind Regards

We stayed at Hotel Aminta in October/2008. Such a georgeous place with that amazing view and the best breakfast ever :). Having the shuttle bus service to town was such a great help. We check Aminta's WebCam all the time which takes us back to beautiful Sorrento for a few minutes :). We can't wait to come back! Thanks Hotel Aminta :)!!!

Absolutely breathtaking views. The staff is beyond reproach. This hotel is a must for anyone wanting to explore the southern portion of Italy. This can be your first stop or last stop as you travel the Amalfi coast. The pool area is as nice as anything you have seen. Breakfast was made to order, or continental and can be included in your rate. Rooms were amazingly gorgeous and quite clean. Two brothers privately own this facility and take great pride in their property. Highly recommend you book a stay at this romantic spot.

We had the most wonderful time at the Aminta in May/June 2006.
I am pleased to say that my sister Anne and brother-in-law Billy (Law) will be celebrating their 25th Wedding Anniversary at the Aminta in September this year.
I must have told her a thousand times how professional the staff are and what a great time we had when we were at the Aminta.
My husband Charlie and I intend coming back next year (I hope) and no doubt we will have a wonderful time.
I still have a look at your live webcam every now and then just to remind myself of how much I loved my holiday.
Staff, Food, Cleanliness,Rooms everything was fantastic but nothing will top the magnificent view from the terrace which will stay with me forever.
Look forward to seeing you all next year.

Ho aperto la Vs. pagina per poter dare uno sguardo sulla mia città natale nel giorno di S. Silvestro.
L'ultimo Capodanno trascorso a Sorrento risale al 1999/2000.
Che nostalgia.
Un caloroso saluto al mio paese.

The Grand Hotel Aminta is a first class hotel and resort. The beauty of the property along with the hospitality makes this a first choice for discriminating travelers as well as families. The service is beyond 5 star, the staff goes out of their way to make you feel like you are number one. They are professional in the art of hospitality. The restaurant boasts a gourmet seasonal menu which we would consider fine dining.
We would highly recommend this paradise to anyone ever thinking of traveling in the south of Italy.

Bonjourno Gianfranco,
I hope you and everyone at the Aminta are well.
I just wanted to thank you on behalf of myself, Lynn & the kids for yet another fantastic holiday in Sorrento. We have had an enforced two year break from Sorrento, following the birth of our son Thomas last year but once we arrived back we felt immediately at home. Although this was our 6th stay at the Aminta it never ceases to surprise me how the staff remain almost unchanged every year and always recognise us. This meant that the moment we arrived we all felt completely relaxed which is testament to everyone who works at your wonderful hotel.
We last stayed at the Aminta in May, 2006 for mine & Lynn’s Wedding when we enjoyed the most amazing two weeks of our lives. We were able to share that occasion with our family & friends but this year was the first time we had travelled abroad with just Ryan, Scott & our latest addition, 17 month old Thomas and we couldn’t wait to give him his first taste of Italy. I am sure it won’t be his last. Even though he won’t remember anything about it I have taken so much camcorder footage and taken so many photos he will at some point realise what a great time he had!
There is a special place in our hearts for Sorrento and the Aminta and always will be. I proposed to my wife here and we got married here but there are a number of other factors that make it such a special place to us and they are as follows.
• The people of Sorrento and the staff at the Aminta. The Italians have a reputation for placing importance on the family and particularly children, which was very apparent during our stay. We were stopped on the streets of Sorrento on countless occasions by locals, complementing us on our beautiful little boy. It was so touching. To our delight and surprise we were also recognised and welcomed back to Sorrento by a number of shop owners and waiters at cafes down in the town. The way of life is very different to what we experience in England where everything is done at a frantic pace and no one has time to enjoy life properly or offer that personal touch/attention to detail. Both of the last qualities are in abundance at the Aminta. It can’t be coincidence that having always asked for sunbeds in a certain place over the years that on recognising us Luigi arranged for our sunbeds to be positioned in the same place without us even asking! This small detail may go unnoticed by some people but to us it’s one of many examples of what makes the whole experience so very special, a feeling that is (and has always been in the past) maintained throughout the whole stay.
• The beauty of the area and the many places to visit. I could sit all day long on the balcony of our room gazing out at the views (something I spent a fair amount of time doing when Thomas was asleep in our room during the day and at night). There can’t be many more spectacular sights in the world than those you get from every side of the hotel, whether it be Capri in the distance, Vesuvius across the bay of Naples or Sorrento itself. Looking down at Sorrento is amazing both during the day and at night and I would recommend to anyone to make the 10-15 minute walk down into Sorrento in order to take in the views which are breathtaking. We walked down every day with a buggy and it was no problem – we even walked back up one day although this was because we missed the courtesy bus. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this if you have a buggy but we made it with a few stops along the way. There are so many lovely little shops and fascinating buildings down some of the side streets in Sorrento that you could spend a week just exploring Sorrento itself. We didn’t do much travelling this time because of Thomas but we did manage a trip to Capri which we also love. However, we hope to be able to come back in the coming years and re-visit the likes of Ischia, Pompei, Herculanium, Vesuvius and Naples which are all steeped in history and are fascinating and beautiful places.
To bring this rather long e-mail to a conclusion, Lynn & I would just like to pass on our special thanks to a few people. For a start, Senior Michel and his staff in the dining room who put up with the noise and mess created by Thomas during our week long holiday! We really appreciated the attention everyone gave to all 3 of our boys, particularly Michel himself, Salvatore and Bo Bo who were all fantastic with Thomas. Because of the way they were looked after, Ryan & Scott have both expressed their desire to come back in the future so it wouldn’t surprise me if it became a family tradition for them as well as us to holiday at the Aminta. We would also like to that all those who work on reception who were friendly and helpful as always – we’re just sorry to have missed Layla this year! And finally to you Gianfranco who helped make our visit possible. Without your assistance in getting us to and from the Aminta and your huge generosity we probably wouldn’t have been able to come back this year. I chatted to a few of your staff about you and they all spoke very highly of you and with genuine respect and affection – something which filters through to everyone who works for you and gives the Aminta that special family feel to it.
We hope it won’t be long before we return but until then you have our best wishes and we will be regularly having a peak at you all through the webcam on your website!
Ciao,
Phil, Lynn, Ryan, Scott & Thomas

Although it's been six months since our first visit to Italy, I can still envision the beautiful scenes from the Grand Hotel Aminta. Just looked at the Vesuviuscam, reminding me of that wonderful view looking out over the Mediterranean towards Mt. Vesuvius. The hotel, situated high above Sorrento, positively gleamed, the staff was wonderful, and the food was amazing! We were visitors in March, considered to be in the off-season, but the Aminta showed us first class service. We appreciated the shuttle to and from town, highly recommend the crazy ride in the blue bus to Positano, and intend to come back soon. Thank you!
