Our family will return to La Cocumella.

Our family will return to La Cocumella. Exquisite in every way, a buffet breakfast TDF, and the amazing Chef Concierge, Giuseppe DiPietro, who arranged our unforgettable dinners in Sorrento, train to Pompei, and a private driver to take our family to Ravello and Positano. The restaurants are wonderful, especially the divine L'Agrumeto by the pristine (and quiet) pool and the staff very welcoming. The Cocumella beach on the jetty presents a view and breeze that will not be forgotten........we will return !

“Among the best, period!”

Absolutely loved it here. No complaints! The service is first rate. The grounds are exquisite, the beach is lovely, and the whole place is a beautiful and historic oasis of serenity. We booked into a base room, communicated in advance that we were traveling with two young children, and they were accommodated into our room without issue. That may not sound like much if you’re used to American hotels, but in Europe being kid-friendly in the hotel industry is the exception, not the rule. We appreciated that the room was spacious (again, vis a vis European standards) had outstanding water pressure by any standard, and had everything we could want. The breakfast buffet is top notch and not to be missed. Freshly squeezed juices, honey dripping from the comb, meats, breads, omelettes, prosecco-you name it. A let’s not forget the outstanding coffee options! Great start to the day! The grounds are expansive with all manner of exotic plants, trees, citrus, and flowers. Not a bad place to hang out with a book, or just stroll around. We used the beach every day. You can either use the chairs out on the platform at the end of the jetty, or you can use chairs on the small black sand beach. Having young kids, we always chose the beach and it was perfect for us. Absolutely beautiful spot with crystal clear blue water. Just thinking about it makes me want to head back! We enjoyed going to La Marinella for lunch, which was super convenient and had beautiful views of the swim area. Speaking of beautiful views, we had a lovely dinner at Coku, with food, music, and views of the sunset over the Gulf of Napoli not to be forgotten. We also enjoyed the pool for an afternoon swim, and we loved the gelato on sale at the pool bar (and the spritzes!) The shuttle to Sorrento was always timely and reliable. Great feature of the hotel. The hustle of Sorrento will make you grateful to return to Cocumella for sure haha. All told this is one of my favorite hotels in the world. Also gotta say Giuseppe at the front desk was great

“Old school charm and service”

As Hilton Gold member, we stayed at both La Cocumella and the Hilton Sorrento Palace back to back. Both were great for different reasons.

As Hilton Gold member, we stayed at both La Cocumella and the Hilton Sorrento Palace back to back. Both were great for different reasons. La Cocumella is a very personalized experience on a charming, scenic edge of the coast. It’s the kind of property where you get there you don’t want to leave. What stands out is the service. From the front desk to the pool guys, they are welcoming and try to be as flexible as possible. Other reviews have mentioned it being a little outdated - sure that’s true but that’s also part of the charm. Its roots go back to the 17th century so to us the vibe went together. Just don’t expect a modern upgraded feel. The pool and the dock/beach accessed via elevator were great. And the views … spectacular, Especially at night and from the Robata restaurant Coku. With big grounds and just a few rooms, the place feels personalized and not overcrowded even during high season. Best for honeymooners, couples, and those looking to relax with a spectacular view of Sorrento and beach/dock access.
