This weekend's UK Times reviewers were getting in early for an Italian coastal summer break. Trying out Casa Angelina on the Amalfi Coast seems like a pretty tough assignment. Well, some parts are tough: if you want to get to the beach, there are a couple of hundred steps leading straight down the cliff.

Casa Angelina was renovated three years back and reinvented in a minimalist style; but the views aren't minimalist, with every room having an outlook on the Mediterranean sea. Spa treatments are available there, but the Times reviewer wasn't too impressed by that--the massage was pretty weak and the aromatherapy oils being used didn't seem to have any aroma. But on the plus side, the breakfast was good, rooms are large and the location is really idyllic, and it's also close enough to archaelogical wonderland Pompeii and hip city Naples to enjoy day trips.
