We "found" the Locanda delle Donne Monache after staying at one of its sister properties near Positano. We were looking for a short break in the sun, somewhere off the beaten path and where the focus could be on complete relaxation with no distractions. The hotel was the perfect answer. There is little to do and see in the area,... more

our stay in the hotel is a few montha away but we still think about the wonderful time we spent there. the atmosphere and service was very special and unique. only a few guests stayed there, so we had the feeling of being in a private villa with our own pool. if you have the possibility visit maratea in the... more

My family and I had a wonderful stay in April at " La Locanda Delle Donne Monache ". After travelling through the mountains we took the coast road from Sapri which had spectacular views of the coast line. As we approached Maratea we were greeted by the breath taking mountains which surround it." What was the Hotel going to be... more

La Locanda delle Donne Monache was the best surprise of our driving tour of Southern Italy. We found it while looking for a convenient location between Rome and Reggio Calabria and booked for one night only. But we had stumbled on a little piece of paradise! The hotel is a converted convent which has just been elegantly refurbished by the... more

I stayed at the Locanda for two weeks in September and had the most wonderful holiday thanks to the gorgeous surroundings and amazing staff at this hotel. Maratea is approx 2 hours drive from Naples airport so car hire is recommended as there are so... more

I came upon this website by accident and after reading some of the awful reviews of Maratea decided I had to write in her defense. We stayed in Maratea for 7 days at the La Laconda Della Donna (a converted nunnery). The hotel was small but very clean with nice rooms, beautiful views of Maratea and the staff went out... more

We stayed here for 9 days during our wedding and we have had a great experience. From the beginning the staff were very friendly and helpfull, without the air of haughty professionalism but a warm interest in the people that stay there. Our room was great, the shower was not the best but that got repaired while we were there,... more

The ads for this albergo boast an exquisite lush garden setting amid lemon trees and gorgeous scenery; a gross exageration! The garden consisted of one lemon tree and several terra cotta pots with withering plants. This hotel is unbelievably overpriced and haughty without precedent. Wadded up towels "adorned" most windows here as everything leaks when it rains. This included the... more

Hotel di grande charme, inserito in un contesto suggestivo; staff cordiale e professionale more
