Top 5-Star Hotels in Capri – VIP Perks & Curated Luxury Experiences

Capri is a 10-square-kilometre island in the Bay of Naples — a near-vertical limestone outcrop with two main villages: Capri town on a saddle 142 metres above sea level, and Anacapri on a higher plateau under Monte Solaro. The Faraglioni sea stacks rise from the water on the southern coast, and the Grotta Azzurra (Blue Grotto) lights up under the northwestern cliffs. Capri has drawn the Roman emperors (Tiberius based his retirement here), then 19th-century writers, then post-war Hollywood, and remains one of the Mediterranean's most photographed destinations.

Where to Stay – Capri's Best Luxury Areas

• Capri Town (La Piazzetta) – The island's social heart around the Piazza Umberto I ('La Piazzetta') — designer shopping along Via Camerelle, the Gardens of Augustus, and walking access to the Faraglioni overlooks. Capri Tiberio Palace, Hotel La Palma Capri, and Punta Tragara sit in and around the town.
• Anacapri & Monte Solaro – The upper village under Capri's highest peak — Villa San Michele, the chairlift to Monte Solaro's 589-metre summit, and the quieter side of the island. Capri Palace Jumeirah stands at the heart of Anacapri; Hotel Caesar Augustus sits on a 300-metre cliff with the island's most photographed terrace.
• Marina Grande (Main Harbour) – The arrival point for ferries from Naples and Sorrento, with the Funicolare connecting to Capri Town. JK Place Capri and Villa Marina Capri Hotel & Spa sit close to the marina.
• Punta Tragara & the Faraglioni Side – The southeastern cliffs above the Faraglioni sea stacks — the island's most dramatic vantage point and the start of the Pizzolungo coastal path. Punta Tragara occupies a Le Corbusier–designed villa directly above the rocks.

Frequently Asked Questions About Booking Luxury Hotels in Capri

What is the best 5-star hotel in Capri?

Top picks include JK Place Capri for the most refined contemporary luxury, Hotel Caesar Augustus for the most dramatic Anacapri cliff-top view, and Punta Tragara for the Faraglioni perch.

Which side of Capri is best to stay — Capri Town or Anacapri?

Capri Town is more social, with the Piazzetta and the designer shopping. Anacapri is quieter and higher, with more dramatic views and easier walks. First-time visitors typically choose Capri Town; returning visitors often shift to Anacapri.

When is the best time to visit Capri?

The season runs Easter to October. May, June, and September are the sweet spots — warm sea, fewer day-trippers, the gardens at peak bloom. July and August are very busy. November–March most hotels close.

How do I get to Capri?

Ferries and hydrofoils run from Naples (45–80 minutes) and Sorrento (20–30 minutes). Private water-taxi from Sorrento takes 20 minutes. Helicopter from Naples or Rome is the fastest premium option. Cars are not permitted for visitors; transfers on the island are by minibus, electric taxi, or porter for luggage.
