We loved the property and all the Stuff and the Chef. It was very charming , located in small town not too touristy. We loved to get to know people in the community. It was sad to leave. We miss everyone! It was a great location! Walking distance to town, close to Positano ❤️ just a Ferry Rode from Amalfi. We loved it and we can’t wait to go back again !!! Met a lot of interesting people staying there as well. Thank you Marika, Thomaso , Oksana , Angelica !!! Hope to see you soon 😊

There was not a thing we did not like . We loved every thing !

Beautifully situated with gorgeous view , easy access to bus stop and easy to access with our suitcases. The staff were so friendly and helped us to organise a boat tour and another trip to Capri. They easily answered our emails and also organised return trips from Naples. Everyone was so friendly and thoug we tried to communicate in Italian they spoke English with us as well. The homemade breakfast with fresh produce from the garden was excellent and we often made it back for lunch so that we could have another meal prepared from the garden by the excellent chef. If we could rate it higher we would have. Absolutely recommend this place to everyone.

It was all wonderful

This is a hidden gem - well maintained, beautiful pool and gardens. Room was a good size, with modern bathroom and a small private terrace with great views. Typical European buffet breakfast, eggs available FOC on request. Small lunch menu available - all excellent. Fully stocked bar - only available until about 3pm I think.

There was rarely any staff in the hotel (except in the outside bar/breakfast area) - so nobody around to help with the numerous bus timetables etc. I resorted to contacting the manager view booking app - not great. The rooms have no drawers / storage for clothes (a small hanging section but nothing else) - just mean having to have suitcases on the floor and unable to unpack 90% of items. there is room to add a chest of drawers - would be appreciated by females!

The hotel is absolutely beautiful and looks just like the photos. The view from our room was stunning and we loved having breakfast out on the terrace. The room was clean and comfortable and had a big balcony. All the staff were so friendly and helpful, especially Tomaso. Location is perfect for wandering round Praiano and for getting to other places along the coast. If getting the bus to Praiano with suitcases I’d recommend getting off at bus stop 9 and walking up the road rather than the steps from bus stop 10 as Google recommends!

I found the mattress and pillows a little hard but my partner loved it, so each to their own! We also used the hot tub in the room one night but it took forever to fill and wasn’t particularly hot in the end.

This is a fabulous gem of a hotel in Praiano (one of the quieter towns along the coast but with excellent restaurants and bars/cafes). Really comfortable, beautifully decorated and immaculately kept inside and out. The gardens are a lovely feature and the terrace is a great place to eat. The breakfast buffet was excellent with fresh produce from the garden, delicious daily baking and egg dishes cooked to order. Staff are really friendly and helpful and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Villa Gianlica to anyone wanting to explore the Amalfi coast.

Can’t fault this hotel!

The staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful! It was a joy to open the doors to the balcony every morning and see blue skies and the sea. The room was very clean, had plenty of room and contemporary in design. The location suited us - quieter then Positano and Amalfi so enabled us to relax yet still within easy distance to places along the coastal road. We really liked the landscaping at the property, numerous tiers in the garden with places to sit and relax. The breakfast was excellent with produce from the garden cooked every day. All in all, excellent.

Nothing. It was all excellent.

There is nothing not to like about Villa Gianlica! Marika and her team are exceptional. They go above and beyond to make you feel very comfortable and to get to know you. The pool bar food is amazing and cooked all with produce from their own gardens. Staying in Praiano is definitely the way to go. Not too busy compared to Positano or Sorrento. Would recommend renting a scooter from M.L Porter, 5 mins up the road. Makes travelling around the coast so easy.

The only thing that slightly bothered us were the pillows. But I think Italy like a hard pillow.

This hotel was absolutely amazing. It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Positano. The pool area was perfect, it was so quiet we felt like we had the place to ourselves most days! We loved the addition of the inflatables in the pool that was very fun! Breakfast was small but had good choices to please everyone, and the lunch on offer was also really good. It’s around a 15 minute walk to the Marina and the beach, down lots of steps but the views make it all worth it. The staff are also lovely, and had arranged taxis and booked restaurants for us too. Overall, this hotel is absolutely stunning, and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful place to stay along the Amalfi coast!

We stayed in room 10, and we would have liked a light on our terrace area so we could sit out at night as we would have been in the pitch black!

Praiano is a charming, quiet town with exceptional restaurants, and Villa Gianlica made our trip even more enjoyable. The Villa itself is authentic with old charm characteristics, gardens,and pool. All the rooms or suites face the sea. The staff is on top of their game, courteous, outgoing, and very knowledgeable as they are all from the area. Marika, our hostess, Tomaso, and Angelica were exceptional and made us feel so welcome and like family. We will miss them. But only until we return :). If you have a chance to stay at this property, don't hesitate. Chow chow.

Everything was perfection. From communication prior to arrival and arranging an evening on their boat to see the coast through to daily interactions and recommendations to final goodbyes which I might add were very sad. I was not ready to leave. The hotel is simply stunning set on the side of Praiano cliffs with unhindered views of the gorgeous sea and sky. The hotel is made up of levels built into the cliff. On 3 the Hotel has created vegetable and fruit gardens all of which are used at breakfast, on the lunch menu and in your drinks. There is a level with shade from trees, a beautiful fountain, seats and books available. The next level has the perfect pool, shower, sun loungers with a lemon tree walk through to the dining area. The location for walking to the marina, shops and restaurants is perfect in distance but I warn you everything that goes up must come down. Be prepared The Amalfi Coast is not the place for you if you have mobility issues! I 100% recommend Villa Gianlica and all their wonderful people.

Didn't like is highly overstated. I would have liked tea making facilities in the room. I am after all a tea loving Brit.
