You’ll enjoy the small seaside marina and the best of their local cuisine. As soon as you arrive, you’ll take notice of the warm, intimate and comfortable atmosphere created by Arturo Esposito and his wife Melina, who have successfully passed on the art of hospitality to their sons Nicola, Gianpaolo and Enzo. This is the delightful setting in which Enzo spares nothing in his commitment to providing excellent Amalfitan cuisine and unsurpassed service.
