What makes it special
Ask the concierge to arrange a boat outing if you want to see coastal villages from the water; clarify route and cost first.
Room to consider
If private outdoor space matters, ask for a suite with a sea-facing terrace; not every room offers outdoor space.
Insider tip
Before planning a sea swim, confirm the Clubhouse's seasonal opening and shuttle arrangements; beach-platform space is subject to availability.
Free membership gives you access to preferred rates, exclusive benefits and current promotions for your stay.
Palazzo Avino is a 43-key hotel in Ravello, with 33 rooms and 10 suites above the Amalfi Coast. The pink 12th-century villa is one of Ravello's signature addresses, known for sea views, Rossellinis restaurant, the Lobster & Martini Bar, a spa, outdoor pool, gardens, and the Clubhouse by the Sea in nearby Marmorata.
It suits travelers who want Ravello's height, quiet, concerts, villas, and views rather than the busier street life of Positano or Amalfi. Palazzo Avino is not the easiest hotel for fast coastal movement, but it is one of the most rewarding if guests want to stay high above the coast.

Palazzo Avino sits in Ravello, about 350 meters above the sea. The position gives it wide views over the coastline and a calmer village setting than many Amalfi Coast hotels. Ravello is known for Villa Rufolo, Villa Cimbrone, gardens, classical music, and summer cultural events.
Arrivals take planning. Naples is the main airport gateway, and the road to Ravello can be slow in peak season. Once guests reach the hotel, the pace changes. The town is walkable, the views are open, and the hotel feels removed from the traffic and ferry rhythm of the lower coast.
This location is best for guests who want to settle in. It is less ideal for travelers who plan to move between Positano, Amalfi, Capri, and beach clubs every day. Ravello rewards slower mornings, long lunches, concerts, garden visits, and evenings above the water.
Palazzo Avino has 33 rooms and 10 suites. The rooms mix antique pieces, Vietri tiles, soft color, carved details, and Amalfi Coast light. Some rooms face the sea, while others have mountain or village outlooks. Guests should choose category carefully, because the view and terrace space can change the stay.
The suites are the strongest options for guests who want more space, more drama, or outdoor areas. Certain top suites have terraces and serious coastal views, which fit the hotel's romantic identity. Standard rooms can be charming, but guests used to large modern layouts should compare sizes before booking.
The design is classic, not minimal. Palazzo Avino works because it leans into Ravello's old-world mood and the personality of the building. Travelers who want a sharp contemporary beach hotel may prefer another address. Travelers who want a pink palace above the coast will understand the appeal.
Rossellinis is the hotel's fine-dining restaurant and holds one Michelin star. It is one of the property's defining experiences, pairing polished service with Amalfi Coast views and Italian cooking. For many guests, one dinner here is part of the reason to stay.
The Lobster & Martini Bar adds a more playful terrace mood, with a long martini list and seafood focus. Caffe dell'Arte and other relaxed service points give guests options across the day. The hotel also has 24-hour room service, which can be useful after late arrivals or long coastal days.
Dining at Palazzo Avino is strongest when guests use the setting. Breakfast, aperitivo, and dinner all feel different because the light changes over the coastline. Ravello has restaurants nearby, but the hotel gives guests enough reason to stay in for several meals.
One of Palazzo Avino's key advantages is the Clubhouse by the Sea, a private seaside address in Marmorata about 15 minutes from Ravello. A complimentary shuttle connects hotel guests to the club during the season. The space includes direct sea access, a casual restaurant, lounge areas, changing rooms, and a small outdoor pool.
This matters because Ravello itself is high above the coast. Many Ravello hotels offer views but no easy beach rhythm. The Clubhouse gives Palazzo Avino guests a way to spend part of the day by the water without giving up the quieter village base.
Guests should still think of this as a seaside club, not a sandy beach resort. The Amalfi Coast is often about platforms, ladders, rocks, boats, and clear water rather than wide beaches. The setup works best for guests who like that style of coastal day.
The hotel has a spa, outdoor pool, fitness options, gardens, and terraces. These facilities add balance to a stay that could otherwise become only views and dining. A swim or treatment after a drive, hike, concert, or boat day can make the hotel feel more complete.
The pool is not the largest on the coast, but it gives guests a calm place to pause above the sea. The outdoor gym and wellness spaces also fit the hotel's slow Ravello rhythm. Palazzo Avino is at its best when guests build in time to stay on property, not only use it as a base.
Ravello itself supports a slower wellness mood. Guests can walk to gardens, sit on terraces, listen to music, and let the coast feel less rushed. The hotel reinforces that pace rather than fighting it.
Ravello is one of the Amalfi Coast's most graceful towns. Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone are close, and the Ravello Festival adds music and cultural life during the season. The town is small, refined, and less hectic than the coastal road below.
Amalfi, Atrani, Minori, Maiori, and Positano can be reached by car or boat plans, but timing matters. Roads can be slow, especially in summer. Guests should plan fewer, better outings rather than trying to cover the entire coast each day.
The hotel also works for boat excursions, ceramics shopping, hiking, wine plans, and quiet days split between Ravello and the Clubhouse. The best stays use the hotel's height and sea access together.
Compared with Belmond Hotel Caruso, Palazzo Avino feels more intimate and more distinctively pink-palace in mood. Caruso has one of the coast's most famous pools and a grand resort feel. Palazzo Avino has the edge for guests who want Rossellinis, the Lobster & Martini Bar, Clubhouse by the Sea, and a more personal family-owned atmosphere.
Compared with Le Sirenuse in Positano, Palazzo Avino is quieter and less fashion-driven. Le Sirenuse is better for guests who want Positano energy and immediate village glamour. Palazzo Avino is better for travelers who want Ravello calm, garden visits, concerts, and a more elevated coastal stay.
Compared with Monastero Santa Rosa, Palazzo Avino feels more village-connected. Monastero has a powerful monastery setting and a famous infinity pool between Amalfi and Conca dei Marini. Palazzo Avino is better for guests who want Ravello on foot, a private sea club, and a classic hotel life around terraces, dining, and town access.
Service is polished but personal. The hotel has a strong family-owned identity, and that gives it warmth alongside formality. Staff are used to guests planning dinners, boat days, transfers, concerts, beach-club hours, and coast logistics.
The atmosphere is romantic, scenic, and grown-up. It is not a nightlife hotel and not a casual beach resort. It is a Ravello palace hotel with pink walls, old-world detail, sea views, strong dining, and a clear sense of place.
Book Palazzo Avino if you want a 33-room, 10-suite hotel in Ravello with Amalfi Coast views, Rossellinis, Lobster & Martini Bar, Caffe dell'Arte, spa, outdoor pool, gardens, fitness options, and the Clubhouse by the Sea in Marmorata. It is especially good for couples, honeymooners, Ravello loyalists, food-focused travelers, and guests who prefer height and calm over coastal crowds.
Do not book it if you want a large modern resort, direct sandy beach access, or the easiest base for driving up and down the coast every day. Positano, Amalfi, or a lower-coast hotel may be more practical for that. Palazzo Avino is best for travelers who want Ravello with views, food, sea access, history, and a slower Amalfi Coast rhythm.
The former noble residence carries a 12th-century origin and original spaces, giving the polished hotel an architectural story rooted in Ravello.
The rooftop solarium places an infinity hydro-pool above the coast, making a quiet hour at the hotel feel connected to the landscape.
During its season, Rossellinis brings creative Italian cooking and regional wines to the hotel, making dinner part of the Ravello experience.

Palazzo Avino is best for luxury travellers who want Ravello, a former 12th-century villa, 33 rooms, 10 suites, sea views, terrace categories, garden pool, spa, Rossellinis, Lobster & Martini Bar, Caffe dell'Arte, Terrazza Maraviglia, and the Clubhouse by the Sea in Marmorata. It is less ideal for guests who want to stay directly on the sand or be in Positano's busiest scene. For couples, honeymooners, food lovers, Ravello loyalists, and travellers who want Amalfi Coast glamour with quiet elevation, Palazzo Avino is one of the region's most memorable hotels.
Yes. Palazzo Avino is excellent for a honeymoon if you want Ravello views, romantic terraces, Rossellinis, Lobster & Martini Bar, spa time, pool afternoons, and a hotel that feels more intimate than the busiest Amalfi Coast towns. For the strongest honeymoon stay, choose a sea-view room or terrace suite and leave enough time to enjoy Ravello rather than rushing along the coast every day.
Yes. Palazzo Avino has a full-service spa located beside the swimming pool in the gardens, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. The hotel also offers fitness, solarium, and wellness facilities. The spa supports the hotel's slower Ravello rhythm. It works well after coastal drives, village walks, boat days, or a morning at the Clubhouse by the Sea.
The Lobster & Martini Bar is one of Palazzo Avino's signature evening experiences. It opens at 6 pm and focuses on local lobster, Champagne, Prosecco, and a large martini selection with sea, mountain, and sunset views. It is a strong choice for a pre-dinner drink or a relaxed romantic evening. The concept feels very Palazzo Avino: elegant, playful, scenic, and unmistakably Amalfi Coast.
Yes. Rossellinis is worth it if you want one of Ravello's most romantic fine-dining experiences. The restaurant holds one Michelin star and serves creative Italian cuisine in an elegant setting with coastal views. It is especially strong for special occasions, honeymoons, and guests who want dinner to be one of the main memories of the trip.
