Stayed for 3 nights in early October 2010. Great location in quiet area away from main square, but we echo same comments of other reviews about steps & walk up hill. We quite enjoyed the location & took the steps many times all the way up. Incredible staff service and excellent dinner recommendations given!
Wi-fi would have been nice but don't know how good it would be since the internet signal was poor in Amalfi. Would stay again for sure!

Villa AnnaLara is on a little hill called Villa some 300 m from Amalfi centre. It is away from all the tourist noise and has the most awesome view. The hotel may be reached by stairs, but also with a little elevator. The elevator is at the end of a small tunnel which is very cool and great after a long and hot day. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We asked many questions and all were answered promptly. A great getaway and definately deserves a higher place than 7th B&B in Amalfi!!!!!

We stayed 4 nights at Annalara, and would recommend it to anyone. While Amalfi itself is quite touristy (especially during the day), the villa is set back from and well above the hustle and bustle, although it is only a few minutes walk to the shops, restaurants and beach (and there is a lift from the street to the villa). The view from the terrace is gorgeous--amazing view of the hillside town and ocean, and the staff was very friendly and professional. Make sure to spend one evening just bringing back a pizza and some wine to enjoy on the terrace!

We stayed here two nights in June. It is a dreadful value, and the descriptions of the rooms are flat-out lies. Our room had a sloped attic-style ceiling, low enough to bang your head on en route to the bathroom, and I'm 5'4" tall. We were promised a sea view--there was a small porthole window at floor level and, if you lay flat on the floor, you could indeed glimpse the sea. The "private" terrace was shared by two other rooms, and the height of the terrace wall precluded any sea view at all. The room was painted a bizarre mint green. Our friends got a bubblegum pink room, allegedly a suite, with garden view. The "suite" consisted of a slightly bigger bedroom than ours and a small hall with 2 small chairs in it. Breakfast was presided over by a character straight out of Monty Python; he clearly disliked women but was excessively friendly with our male friend and made quiet breakfasts impossible. we were unable to leave early because the day concierge couldn't arrive before 9 a.m. The relais is located a short walk from town, which meant it was peaceful, but the walk, and the steep stairs, make it unsuitable for anyone with health issues. There are much better options available at that price!
