2 Best Hotels in Atrani, The Amalfi Coast

Occupying a 19th-century villa up the steps from Atrani's harbor, this hotel has unrivaled beach vistas and a pop-art design-theme, evident in both the modern lobby and in the colorful, individually designed guest rooms, each one dedicated to a movie actress. The star attraction, though, is the Nel Blue beauty center, with its mosaic walls, infused lighting, and selection of massages. Climb to the top-floor solarium for a 180-degree view over Atrani.

Built into the rocky shoreline just outside Atrani, this small, friendly, family-run hotel with fresh blue-hued rooms has the feel of a private villa hideaway, one with peaceful lemon- and flower-scented terraces that tumble down the cliffs and access to the Mar Tirreno waves.
