my traveling companions and i stayed here for 4 days at the end of a month long visit of southern italy. we wanted some place that was quiet and relaxing. casa mazzola was all this and more. the b&b is run by two charming hosts, father and son. the repartee between them was great and led to many laughs over wine in the evening. luigi is an artist, and as such, each room was very visually delightful. luigi was filled with suggestions on what to do and places to eat. it is a bit out of sorrento, but we did have a car and appreciated the quiet. this is a great place to stay and all three of us would recommend it.

I loved this place! It was our last stop on the trip and the best. The rooms are clean and simple. But the service is exceptional, there is nothing the hosts wont do for you. They picked us up from the train station, helped us hire a scooter and even when we were running late for our train back to naples bought our tickets for us so we didn't miss it! There was a great atmosphere at breakfast where all the other travellers would chat and exchange stories. breakfast was a simple but fresh and beautiful italian feast. If you like fancy hotels that are sterile and impersonal but have nice soaps then this place isn't for you. but if you are after a real italian stay with great people then you won't be disappointed! Small warning, it's not centrally located so you will need a car or scooter.

Casa Mazzola Sant’ Agnello
A very welcome refuge. A home away from home. Our host Luigi Mazzola could not have been more charming and knowledgeable. Luigi has lived in this area all his life and has all the information for you to tailor your trip to what you want to see. Casa Mazzola is perched perfectly above the panoramic views of the Bay of Naples just 10 minutes from Sorrento and the nearby island of Capri. A beautiful setting embellished with Luigi’s Art Glass, creatively decorated rooms and unique gardens. Our room was lovely with a kitchenette and patio overlooking Sant’ Agnello and the bay. We were treated like royalty each morning with a lovely breakfast and discussion of activities to plan for the days ahead. Luigi even drew us our own personal maps of where to go and can’t miss sites. Away from the hustle and bustle of Sorrento and Naples this is a great location for accessing the unbelievable beauty of the Amalfi Coast and the towns of Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. Skip renting a car and driving in this part of Italy as all these fantastic places to experience are about an hour away from Sant’ Agnello and accessible by a variety of public transportation. Pompeii is a can’t miss and also easily reached by train. This part of Italy is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. We closed each day on the patio overlooking the bay with the dinner we made ourselves with groceries purchased from local merchants. Best advice is to go off season and soak in all the beauty which Southern Italy has to offer. This place is full of dreams.

I went to Italy with my wife and parents. The Amalfi Coast was our last stop. Luigi helped us with directions and suggested a restaurant near the b&b(La Rossa) that was the best food we had on our trip. They make you feel like you were family. The rooms were clean and quaint. Very nice overlooks outside the rooms. We drove, so Luigi gave us directions that were easy to fallow. Great place to stay for anyone.
