Villa San Michele Capri

Villa San Michele Capri

Visiting the town of Capri will not be complete without staying for at least one night at Villa San Michele.

This popular four-star hotel is the dream home of Axel Munthe, a notable author and physician from Sweden. The highlight of this establishment is the fact that if offers a marvelous view of the great Gulf of Naples and the beautiful Sorrentine Peninsula.

Villa San Michele Capri has gorgeous standard rooms and deluxe suites. What else would be a better way to relax after a day-long tour across Capri than to take a dip in the Jacuzzi or have a warm shower in the Versace bathroom and lay in the original round bed of one of the two deluxe suites of the hotel? And to ensure a good night sleep, guests can take a sip of a perfectly-aged wine at the mini-bar of the room before going to bed. Other amazing features of the deluxe room are 11-metre panoramic windows, flat screen satellite television, and free continental breakfast.

Villa San Michele Capri, which conveniently sits at the height of 327 meters above sea level, is only five kilometers or seven-minute car drive away from Marina Grande Capri. Reaching the hotel by hydrofoil, speedboat, and even helicopter ride is also possible. For a more convenient transportation, it is recommended to make arrangements with the hotel staff prior to the day of arrival. Nonetheless, if tourists want a more affordable way of getting to the hotel, then a free shuttle service to and from the port is also available daily.

Upon arriving at the villa, guests will be welcomed by the aromatic and colorful gardens that offer picturesque views of Capri, the harbor, and Mount Vesuvius. In addition to the gardens, this heavenly place also boasts of its semi-Olympic pool back drafted by the historical Castello Barbarossa. And of course, staying in this hotel does not only mean glorifying the eyes with amazing views, but also satisfying one’s cravings for authentic and delicious Italian dishes.

The Baia di Napoli is a famous restaurant in Villa San Michele Capri that serves traditional Capri cuisine. This restaurant is big enough to accommodate up to 200 guests, making the hotel an ideal venue for romantic weddings. When it comes to wedding themes, the options are limitless. Couples can have their wedding by the pool, welcoming guests with the calming sea breeze. Otherwise, they can have it in the gardens, making the flowers and greens their natural décor. Lastly, the terrace that offers a panoramic view is perfect for pre and post wedding picture taking.

You think that’s all this place can offer? Well, Villa San Michele Capri has more. This hotel owns La Lanterna Verde club, which is one of the most popular clubs across the town of Capri. This place is famous for its white rock interiors plus the fact that many Italian celebrities, singers, and musicians are spotted partying here.

For sure, all the things stated above have awakened your curiosity and have made you think of visiting this place. For interested guests, online booking is available. It would be ideal to visit the official website of Villa San Michele to check rates and availability. Also look to see if you can take advantage of any possible promotions.

I highly recommend Villa San Michele Capri. I decided to read Axel Munthe's book , The Story of San Michele prior to my trip. It really puts everything into perspective. I would also recommend the book as well!
