Across numerous reviews, travellers describe Villa Ketty Resort as a serene, family-run hillside retreat with breathtaking Bay of Naples views, standout home‑made breakfasts, and exceptionally warm, hands‑on service that helps with transport, recommendations, and day‑to‑day needs.
Rooms are generally spacious and comfortable, many with terraces or balconies framing sea and Vesuvio panoramas. Facilities include a pretty pool and gardens, plus a handy shuttle and off‑site parking that simplify access to the steep approach. Dining wins high praise for generous, home‑cooked dinners and lively pizza nights, though a few note limited evening or snack choices. Expect a welcoming, scenic base for exploring the Sorrento and Pompeii area.

For et sted! Hyggelige ansatte, nydelig frokost og for en utsikt! Rent og pent, stille og rolig. Vi bestilte oss 4 netter der som en begynnelse på vår ferie. De ansatte var stort sett alltid tilgjengelige når man ville ha en øl eller vin når vi lå ved det nydelige bassenget. Stedet hadde mange forskjellige nivåer, flere hager det bugnet av sitroner. Som et tips: Ring før dere kommer, det er ikke mulig å ha med seg leiebilen opp. Parkeringen er i et parkeringsanlegg nede i byen, det må man bli vist første gang. Ellers er man avhengig av skyss fra stedet for å komme seg opp eller ned til byen.

Lovely, spacious, clean and comfortable room. Fabulous pool area. Friendly and helpful staff. 10 minute walk into Vico Equense with plenty of shops and restaurants. Hotel also does evening meals, it’s a very limited menu which is written up on a board in the afternoon, but it’s good home cooking, and delicious. Pizza Party night was great fun with local musician to entertain. Easy to get on the train to Sorrento, Naples and Pompeii. Had a massage which was amazing - best massage I’ve ever had. Bar lady made paninis for us at lunch times, but there was no snack menu so I don’t know if anything else was available. Would have been handy to have an information sheet in the room as we couldn’t always find anyone when we had a question to ask. Take insect repellent.

We had an absolute wonderful stay at Villa Ketty! The owners made our stay feel more like a home than a resort between preparing breakfast daily with a smile, offering recommendations for activities, and assisting us in arrangements. Staff were friendly and responsive; meals were delicious – from the lunch or dinner offerings (eggplant parmigiana was the best) to their pizza and pasta specialty “party” dinners, meals were taken on the covered terraces with amazing views of the Bay of Naples and Mt. Vesuvio. Their homemade sweets, breakfasts and cheeses (particularly the mozzarella) were delicious and ample. Rooms are beautifully appointed and air conditioned; quiet and comfortable. The pool is a good size, clean and cool for those hot August days (towels and flip flops are offered in the room) with good shading for the chairs. There are different levels for the rooms so if stairs are an issue consult with Antonio when booking. Vico Equense is also a lovely little town with a train station that goes from Naples to Sorrento; Vico is about 15 minutes by train to Sorrento so getting there was easy (recommend taxi back from Sorrento if you will be past 8pm) as was getting to Pompeii and Herculaneum (Ercolino). There are good restaurants, activities and beaches in the area if you do not want to travel outside of the town.

Foi tudo maravilhoso. Antonio, Denise, Felice e Fernando, entre os demais, tornaram nossa estadia memorável. Tudo feito com muito capricho e amabilidade. Café da manhã esplendoroso. Fica a dez minutos a pé da estação, mas eles nos levam e buscam sempre que requisitados. A vista vale MUITO a pena. O jardim é lindo, e a piscina é ótima.

Husband and I stayed at Villa Ketty in Vico Equense for three nights in Aug 2025. It was the perfect getaway from large crowds in other areas of the Amalfi coast. The proprietor Antonio, his wife, and their assistant Fernando spoiled us from beginning to end! The hotel is a renovated stone building with various levels and verandas perched on the side of a mountain overlooking the sea. A marina below and a direct view of Ischia island. The road is narrow with twists and turns, so they provide free covered parking at a restaurant in town, and send a driver to pick up guests from there. Antonio answered the phone immediately each time I called with updates on our arrival status. He was the perfect host, always kind, gracious, and available to answer our many questions with a big smile. He & his wife prepared the most incredible breakfasts every morning from scratch with local ingredients and eggs/produce grown on the property. Optional dinners were expertly prepared by the proprietors and staff. We arrived on “Pizza Party” night which included wonderful 8ft long wood fired pizzas and live entertainment. Fernando wore many hats, from bartender to waiter to concierge. He & all staff were lovely & helpful. Easy walk down the hill to a “meeting place” for tour operators to pick up/drop off guests, and a little further walk to town & local train station for day trips to Sorrento and Pompeii. Highly recommend Villa Ketty & we hope to return in the future!

We loved everything about Villa Ketty, the staff and facilities were wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast (included free) and dinners were delicious. Price of drinks and dinner very reasonable. Our room was quaint and comfortable with a balcony view and we were treated like family. Also many lovely views from all the areas available for the guests to use. A shuttle service was offered free of charge to take you into Vico Equense if you didn’t want to walk. Would definitely love to come back and stay again one day

We absolutely loved our stay at Villa Ketty. Antonio and his wife made you feel like you were part of the family. We had two beautiful, spacious, incredibly clean suites for our family of 4. The views from our rooms were breathtaking and spectacular. The pool area was spotless with multiple areas to kickback and relax. The staff was on top of everything…we were so well taken care of. The morning breakfast was absolutely scrumptious and very filling. Antonio took great care in presenting the vast selection of cheeses, bakery items and desserts. Always fresh squeezed OJ and fabulous coffees as we sat down each morning. We enjoyed an amazing dinner at the Villa on our last night. Everything was made from scratch and you could tell. Again, such attentive staff! Sitting on the patio and watching the sunset while eating a fabulous meal was beyond anything we could imagine. We will be back and we will recommend to all our friends. Thank you Antonio and family for making us feel special and taking such great care of us.

What a special place! Antonio and the team are first class! Couldn’t be more lovely and welcoming when we stayed here. The breakfast is first class and so was the evening meals It is up a steep hill but there is a shuttle and you just need to contact Antonio and the car is sent to you. Antonio can also organise excursions for you, we had these booked ahead, but most things he can sort out. We went on from Vico Equense to Rome and my husband forgot his passport and couldn’t get into the colosseum without it. A quick call to Antonio and he had the image of our passports sent over to us!! It was such a lovely experience staying at Villa Ketty and I hope to go back some day.

Absolutely loved every aspect of this hotel. The breakfasts were quite seriously the best we have ever had. Several types of fresh fruit cherries, peaches, berries. At least 10 different cheeses, several different breads and croissants, as well as local specialty breakfast items. Also several different pastries daily. Most of the people who work there are family and every person we worked with was absolutely wonderful. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone wanting to stay in the area. Very very unique experience!! Beautiful grounds, great pool and very clean

Our stay at Villa Ketty was nothing short of magical. Let’s begin with the view—absolutely breathtaking. From our window, we soaked in the shimmering water, rolling hills, vibrant flowers, golden sunshine, the stars at night, and fireworks as well. Antonio, the gracious host and owner, along with his lovely wife, made us feel truly welcome. Each morning began with a delicious breakfast—always fresh, beautifully presented, and offering a delightful variety. Our room was spotless and refreshed daily, providing a cool and comfortable retreat. The location is ideal: just a short walk into town for shopping or dining, and only five minute walk to the train station if you're heading to Sorrento, Pompeii, or Naples. Capri is also easily accessible by boat for a scenic day trip. After exploring, we loved unwinding with a perfectly crafted Limoncello Spritzer, courtesy of the attentive staff. And don’t miss “Pizza Night”—it’s an absolute must. The pizza was hands-down the best we’ve ever tasted, paired with lively entertainment that made the evening unforgettable. Villa Ketty exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived to the moment we departed, everything was flawless. We wholeheartedly recommend it.

We immensely enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The room was spacious and very clean, the beds very comfortable and the pillows seemed to be very good quality. The room opened up onto a beautiful terrace with a breathtaking view of the sea and the town in the background. The other side side of the terrace offered a clear view of Mount Vesuvius and Naples in the distance. The hosts, Antonio and Denise, were so friendly and helpful, you couldn't ask for anything better. There was a vast choice of delicious organic Italian foods at breakfast, including all kind of fresh breads, cheeses, fruit, pastries, eggs, most of it freshly made by the hosts. My husband has celiac disease and they were so accommodating and made him fresh gluten-free focaccia and cakes every morning, so he could also enjoy the homemade Italian food. Needles to say all of it was delicious!!! The lovely Antonio also does the introduction to all the foods offered to help you navigate your way around it and find what you like. Because the food was so good we ended up dining there most evenings as well, enjoying the atmosphere and amazing views of the sea and mountains. To top it all off, the owners have a dog, a beautiful and friendly little Jack Russell, who just wonders around the property. He is extremely well behaved and will only come up to the guests when invited. My daughter absolutely loved him and wanted to pet him every day. It was a truly unique experience and we definitely want to go back there.

My three day stay at Villa Ketty in Sept 2025 was one of the highlights of my trip. A relaxing alternative to busy Sorrento. Great service from Antonio and the entire staff. Beautiful, rambling building and grounds. Picture postcard views of Vico Equense harbor and beach from the spotlessly clean room and of Mt. Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples from the patio. The lavish breakfasts and dinners were the best. The free shuttle or a short, steep but fun walk (without luggage) gets you to town, where you can catch the (very crowded) Circumvesuviana to Sorrento, Pompeii, etc. Great place!

Arriving to Villa Ketty was like stepping into heaven. We stayed in the executive studio suite, room 30. It was magnificent. The owners care about every detail of your stay, from serving a wonderful breakfast to delicious dinners and helping with arranging other activities. You feel like you’re part of the family here, not at a hotel.

Lovely, spacious, clean and comfortable room. Fabulous pool area. Friendly and helpful staff. 10 minute walk into Vico Equense with plenty of shops and restaurants. Hotel also does evening meals, it’s a very limited menu which is written up on a board in the afternoon, but it’s good home cooking, and delicious. Pizza Party night was great fun with local musician to entertain. Easy to get on the train to Sorrento, Naples and Pompeii. Had a massage which was amazing - best massage I’ve ever had. Bar lady made paninis for us at lunch times, but there was no snack menu so I don’t know if anything else was available. Would have been handy to have an information sheet in the room as we couldn’t always find anyone when we had a question to ask. Take insect repellent.

Property was ideal. Fabulous views, lovely staff and tasty meals. Boutique hotel so a smaller environment which is exactly what we wanted. Everything available in Vico Equense, train to get to Sorrento & Pompeii. Hilly environment which is perfectly manageable with a fair fitness level.

What a hidden gem is Villa Ketty. It is run by Antonio and his wife. From the minute we arrived they made us feel like family. The view was stunning, you just couldn't get enough. The service was top notch. Our room was quaint as was all the property. Every where you looked there was a beautiful plant, fruit bearing trees and knick knacks to delight all.In one word it all felt authentic. The pool and outside bar and pizza oven was a plus. And Antonios breakfasts were the best as he prepared eat plate according to your liking, everything fresh and home made. The dinner parties were lots of fun. Train station 10 minute walk. Antonio arranged our excursion to Capri which was so much fun. Thank you so much for a fun relaxing authentic experience. I highly recommend Villa Ketty

We absolutely loved our stay at Villa Ketty. Antonio and his wife made you feel like you were part of the family. We had two beautiful, spacious, incredibly clean suites for our family of 4. The views from our rooms were breathtaking and spectacular. The pool area was spotless with multiple areas to kickback and relax. The staff was on top of everything…we were so well taken care of. The morning breakfast was absolutely scrumptious and very filling. Antonio took great care in presenting the vast selection of cheeses, bakery items and desserts. Always fresh squeezed OJ and fabulous coffees as we sat down each morning. We enjoyed an amazing dinner at the Villa on our last night. Everything was made from scratch and you could tell. Again, such attentive staff! Sitting on the patio and watching the sunset while eating a fabulous meal was beyond anything we could imagine. We will be back and we will recommend to all our friends. Thank you Antonio and family for making us feel special and taking such great care of us.

We immensely enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The room was spacious and very clean, the beds very comfortable and the pillows seemed to be very good quality. The room opened up onto a beautiful terrace with a breathtaking view of the sea and the town in the background. The other side side of the terrace offered a clear view of Mount Vesuvius and Naples in the distance. The hosts, Antonio and Denise, were so friendly and helpful, you couldn't ask for anything better. There was a vast choice of delicious organic Italian foods at breakfast, including all kind of fresh breads, cheeses, fruit, pastries, eggs, most of it freshly made by the hosts. My husband has celiac disease and they were so accommodating and made him fresh gluten-free focaccia and cakes every morning, so he could also enjoy the homemade Italian food. Needles to say all of it was delicious!!! The lovely Antonio also does the introduction to all the foods offered to help you navigate your way around it and find what you like. Because the food was so good we ended up dining there most evenings as well, enjoying the atmosphere and amazing views of the sea and mountains. To top it all off, the owners have a dog, a beautiful and friendly little Jack Russell, who just wonders around the property. He is extremely well behaved and will only come up to the guests when invited. My daughter absolutely loved him and wanted to pet him every day. It was a truly unique experience and we definitely want to go back there.

My three day stay at Villa Ketty in Sept 2025 was one of the highlights of my trip. A relaxing alternative to busy Sorrento. Great service from Antonio and the entire staff. Beautiful, rambling building and grounds. Picture postcard views of Vico Equense harbor and beach from the spotlessly clean room and of Mt. Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples from the patio. The lavish breakfasts and dinners were the best. The free shuttle or a short, steep but fun walk (without luggage) gets you to town, where you can catch the (very crowded) Circumvesuviana to Sorrento, Pompeii, etc. Great place!

We stayed for three nights but needed to extend to a forth. Everything about the service and attention to detail at Villa Ketty is outstanding. The personal touch provided by Antonio, his family and staff is simply excellent. This included being collected from local transport, organising visits, advice on local attractions, and the quality of home-prepared food at breakfast and dinner. This place is special. Worth a try.

Husband and I stayed at Villa Ketty in Vico Equense for three nights in Aug 2025. It was the perfect getaway from large crowds in other areas of the Amalfi coast. The proprietor Antonio, his wife, and their assistant Fernando spoiled us from beginning to end! The hotel is a renovated stone building with various levels and verandas perched on the side of a mountain overlooking the sea. A marina below and a direct view of Ischia island. The road is narrow with twists and turns, so they provide free covered parking at a restaurant in town, and send a driver to pick up guests from there. Antonio answered the phone immediately each time I called with updates on our arrival status. He was the perfect host, always kind, gracious, and available to answer our many questions with a big smile. He & his wife prepared the most incredible breakfasts every morning from scratch with local ingredients and eggs/produce grown on the property. Optional dinners were expertly prepared by the proprietors and staff. We arrived on “Pizza Party” night which included wonderful 8ft long wood fired pizzas and live entertainment. Fernando wore many hats, from bartender to waiter to concierge. He & all staff were lovely & helpful. Easy walk down the hill to a “meeting place” for tour operators to pick up/drop off guests, and a little further walk to town & local train station for day trips to Sorrento and Pompeii. Highly recommend Villa Ketty & we hope to return in the future!

I was born in this area and I miss it everyday but I wasn’t aware of Villa Ketty before , this place is what heaven would look like if it was placed on earth! Antonio and Denise are such caring hosts and nothing was too much trouble. They are surrounded by wonderful staff members who kept our room spotless and their cook and waiters and bar staff are so friendly and professional. This was our honeymoon present for my husband Perry and I and we loved every moment of it and we will definitely go back. Thank you Villa Ketty Sergio , Perry and tiny puppy Ocean 😘

The wonderful family atmosphere with the owners and dedicated staff Is what makes Villa Ketty so special .As its a small hotel time is available for guests individual attention. Location in Vico Equinse is ideal for access to the train station for visits further afield . The breakfasts and dinner in the evenings if required were the tastiest that we experienced on our trip staying 9 days in October. The weather was perfect 21/22/23 degrees and the swimming at the beach was delightful. All thanks to Antonio Denice Kara Sylvia Fernando Felix and Melanie for your friendly welcome . Delighted to chat to Ketty On visits to church nearby. The glowing reviews I reviewed before booking did not disappoint. 🤗 Michael & Anne

What a special place! Antonio and the team are first class! Couldn’t be more lovely and welcoming when we stayed here. The breakfast is first class and so was the evening meals It is up a steep hill but there is a shuttle and you just need to contact Antonio and the car is sent to you. Antonio can also organise excursions for you, we had these booked ahead, but most things he can sort out. We went on from Vico Equense to Rome and my husband forgot his passport and couldn’t get into the colosseum without it. A quick call to Antonio and he had the image of our passports sent over to us!! It was such a lovely experience staying at Villa Ketty and I hope to go back some day.

Location
Scenic hillside setting above Vico Equense with wide bay views; about a 5–10 minute walk to town and the train, but the route is steep. A free shuttle helps with the climb and narrow roads, making it a good base for Sorrento and Pompeii.

For et sted! Hyggelige ansatte, nydelig frokost og for en utsikt! Rent og pent, stille og rolig. Vi bestilte oss 4 netter der som en begynnelse på vår ferie. De ansatte var stort sett alltid tilgjengelige når man ville ha en øl eller vin når vi lå ved det nydelige bassenget. Stedet hadde mange forskjellige nivåer, flere hager det bugnet av sitroner. Som et tips: Ring før dere kommer, det er ikke mulig å ha med seg leiebilen opp. Parkeringen er i et parkeringsanlegg nede i byen, det må man bli vist første gang. Ellers er man avhengig av skyss fra stedet for å komme seg opp eller ned til byen.

This a beautiful place to stay. The service was always thoughtfull and very frendly. The views around the villa are stunning, perfect for a peaceful break or as a base to explore the local area and the breakfast was amazingly good. Our room (No 19) was large, very clean and quiet. Overall, we were very happy to have chosen Villa Kitty.

Our holiday at Villa Ketty was one of a kind. All the staff are very friendly, going out of their way to help. Antonio was always around to help with anything. I emailed ahead to tell him that I am gluten free, and he went above and beyond to make sure I didn't miss out on any of the food experiences. He ensured I had plenty of options at breakfast, even making a gluten free version of the hot bake that he would make each morning. Pizza night was also great, having not one, but two gluten free pizzas made just for me! The breakfast was a work of art and an event in itself. We were never rushed through and could take our time eating (plenty!) and drinking coffee on the terrace for as long as we wanted. The selection of fruit (dried and fresh), cake, meats and cheese was never ending! The hotel is situated in the hills and is accessed through small windy roads. We happily walked up and down a few times, but they offer a quick shuttle service up and down if needed. The overall feel of the hotel is friendly, family run and relaxing. Would highly recommend staying at Villa Ketty and we are looking forward to coming back again!

We had an absolute wonderful stay at Villa Ketty! The owners made our stay feel more like a home than a resort between preparing breakfast daily with a smile, offering recommendations for activities, and assisting us in arrangements. Staff were friendly and responsive; meals were delicious – from the lunch or dinner offerings (eggplant parmigiana was the best) to their pizza and pasta specialty “party” dinners, meals were taken on the covered terraces with amazing views of the Bay of Naples and Mt. Vesuvio. Their homemade sweets, breakfasts and cheeses (particularly the mozzarella) were delicious and ample. Rooms are beautifully appointed and air conditioned; quiet and comfortable. The pool is a good size, clean and cool for those hot August days (towels and flip flops are offered in the room) with good shading for the chairs. There are different levels for the rooms so if stairs are an issue consult with Antonio when booking. Vico Equense is also a lovely little town with a train station that goes from Naples to Sorrento; Vico is about 15 minutes by train to Sorrento so getting there was easy (recommend taxi back from Sorrento if you will be past 8pm) as was getting to Pompeii and Herculaneum (Ercolino). There are good restaurants, activities and beaches in the area if you do not want to travel outside of the town.

Wonderful setting, the photos are an accurate reflection of the place. Breakfasts are amazing, although not sure I could cope with eating as many lovely local cheeses and homemade cakes as much as I did, but it’s hard to say no. Antonio and his staff are all lovely and helpful. There are comments about the walk into town and back, we found it a pleasant short walk and there were only a couple of steep bits, but so short that it was fine. In fact, I preferred the walking, plus you got to meet all the local cats! The views from the path are lovely. Thoroughly recommend it, could not have imagined us staying in somewhere as busy as Sorrento. The room we had was spacious, the shower powerful and other than perhaps adding some hooks in the bathroom (so towels could be re-used instead of being changed every day), I can’t fault Villa Ketty at all.

In fact, I preferred the walking, plus you got to meet all the local cats! The views from the path are lovely. Thoroughly recommend it, could not have imagined us staying in somewhere as busy as Sorrento. The room we had was spacious, the shower powerful and other than perhaps adding some hooks in the bathroom (so towels could be re-used instead of being changed every day), I can’t fault Villa Ketty at all.

Property was ideal. Fabulous views, lovely staff and tasty meals. Boutique hotel so a smaller environment which is exactly what we wanted. Everything available in Vico Equense, train to get to Sorrento & Pompeii. Hilly environment which is perfectly manageable with a fair fitness level.

Our stay at Villa Ketty was nothing short of magical. Let’s begin with the view—absolutely breathtaking. From our window, we soaked in the shimmering water, rolling hills, vibrant flowers, golden sunshine, the stars at night, and fireworks as well. Antonio, the gracious host and owner, along with his lovely wife, made us feel truly welcome. Each morning began with a delicious breakfast—always fresh, beautifully presented, and offering a delightful variety. Our room was spotless and refreshed daily, providing a cool and comfortable retreat. The location is ideal: just a short walk into town for shopping or dining, and only five minute walk to the train station if you're heading to Sorrento, Pompeii, or Naples. Capri is also easily accessible by boat for a scenic day trip. After exploring, we loved unwinding with a perfectly crafted Limoncello Spritzer, courtesy of the attentive staff. And don’t miss “Pizza Night”—it’s an absolute must. The pizza was hands-down the best we’ve ever tasted, paired with lively entertainment that made the evening unforgettable. Villa Ketty exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived to the moment we departed, everything was flawless. We wholeheartedly recommend it.

Husband and I stayed at Villa Ketty in Vico Equense for three nights in Aug 2025. It was the perfect getaway from large crowds in other areas of the Amalfi coast. The proprietor Antonio, his wife, and their assistant Fernando spoiled us from beginning to end! The hotel is a renovated stone building with various levels and verandas perched on the side of a mountain overlooking the sea. A marina below and a direct view of Ischia island. The road is narrow with twists and turns, so they provide free covered parking at a restaurant in town, and send a driver to pick up guests from there. Antonio answered the phone immediately each time I called with updates on our arrival status. He was the perfect host, always kind, gracious, and available to answer our many questions with a big smile. He & his wife prepared the most incredible breakfasts every morning from scratch with local ingredients and eggs/produce grown on the property. Optional dinners were expertly prepared by the proprietors and staff. We arrived on “Pizza Party” night which included wonderful 8ft long wood fired pizzas and live entertainment. Fernando wore many hats, from bartender to waiter to concierge. He & all staff were lovely & helpful. Easy walk down the hill to a “meeting place” for tour operators to pick up/drop off guests, and a little further walk to town & local train station for day trips to Sorrento and Pompeii. Highly recommend Villa Ketty & we hope to return in the future!

My three day stay at Villa Ketty in Sept 2025 was one of the highlights of my trip. A relaxing alternative to busy Sorrento. Great service from Antonio and the entire staff. Beautiful, rambling building and grounds. Picture postcard views of Vico Equense harbor and beach from the spotlessly clean room and of Mt. Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples from the patio. The lavish breakfasts and dinners were the best. The free shuttle or a short, steep but fun walk (without luggage) gets you to town, where you can catch the (very crowded) Circumvesuviana to Sorrento, Pompeii, etc. Great place!

Absolutely loved every aspect of this hotel. The breakfasts were quite seriously the best we have ever had. Several types of fresh fruit cherries, peaches, berries. At least 10 different cheeses, several different breads and croissants, as well as local specialty breakfast items. Also several different pastries daily. Most of the people who work there are family and every person we worked with was absolutely wonderful. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone wanting to stay in the area. Very very unique experience!! Beautiful grounds, great pool and very clean

This was a gorgeous family run property with incredible views over the sea. To be able to see Mt Vesuvius every day was breathtaking. The breakfast and the presentation is to die for. Nothing is too much trouble for Antonio and his staff. Delicious food at night cooked fresh and served to you as you watched the sun set. The pizza parties here are a must where metre foot pizzas are cooked. Thank you Antonio for such an amazing holiday!

Lovely, spacious, clean and comfortable room. Fabulous pool area. Friendly and helpful staff. 10 minute walk into Vico Equense with plenty of shops and restaurants. Hotel also does evening meals, it’s a very limited menu which is written up on a board in the afternoon, but it’s good home cooking, and delicious. Pizza Party night was great fun with local musician to entertain. Easy to get on the train to Sorrento, Naples and Pompeii. Had a massage which was amazing - best massage I’ve ever had. Bar lady made paninis for us at lunch times, but there was no snack menu so I don’t know if anything else was available. Would have been handy to have an information sheet in the room as we couldn’t always find anyone when we had a question to ask. Take insect repellent.

We had an absolute wonderful stay at Villa Ketty! The owners made our stay feel more like a home than a resort between preparing breakfast daily with a smile, offering recommendations for activities, and assisting us in arrangements. Staff were friendly and responsive; meals were delicious – from the lunch or dinner offerings (eggplant parmigiana was the best) to their pizza and pasta specialty “party” dinners, meals were taken on the covered terraces with amazing views of the Bay of Naples and Mt. Vesuvio. Their homemade sweets, breakfasts and cheeses (particularly the mozzarella) were delicious and ample. Rooms are beautifully appointed and air conditioned; quiet and comfortable. The pool is a good size, clean and cool for those hot August days (towels and flip flops are offered in the room) with good shading for the chairs. There are different levels for the rooms so if stairs are an issue consult with Antonio when booking. Vico Equense is also a lovely little town with a train station that goes from Naples to Sorrento; Vico is about 15 minutes by train to Sorrento so getting there was easy (recommend taxi back from Sorrento if you will be past 8pm) as was getting to Pompeii and Herculaneum (Ercolino). There are good restaurants, activities and beaches in the area if you do not want to travel outside of the town.

There aren’t enough words or ways to share how amazing this property is. It is situated on the hill with amazing views. The owners, Antonio and his wife, ensure all guests feel like they are family who have come to visit. Breakfast is to die for. We have never had such an amazing experience anywhere else. It was difficult leaving the property for the day to explore other areas because it was just so great at the resort. Would go back just to sit and relax there for a week. If I could give it 15/10 stars, I would.

We immensely enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The room was spacious and very clean, the beds very comfortable and the pillows seemed to be very good quality. The room opened up onto a beautiful terrace with a breathtaking view of the sea and the town in the background. The other side side of the terrace offered a clear view of Mount Vesuvius and Naples in the distance. The hosts, Antonio and Denise, were so friendly and helpful, you couldn't ask for anything better. There was a vast choice of delicious organic Italian foods at breakfast, including all kind of fresh breads, cheeses, fruit, pastries, eggs, most of it freshly made by the hosts. My husband has celiac disease and they were so accommodating and made him fresh gluten-free focaccia and cakes every morning, so he could also enjoy the homemade Italian food. Needles to say all of it was delicious!!! The lovely Antonio also does the introduction to all the foods offered to help you navigate your way around it and find what you like. Because the food was so good we ended up dining there most evenings as well, enjoying the atmosphere and amazing views of the sea and mountains. To top it all off, the owners have a dog, a beautiful and friendly little Jack Russell, who just wonders around the property. He is extremely well behaved and will only come up to the guests when invited. My daughter absolutely loved him and wanted to pet him every day. It was a truly unique experience and we definitely want to go back there.

Consistently , one of the best places to stay when visiting either the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento, Naples, Pompeii etc. I’ve been here many times and prefer Villa Ketty to all other places due to its staff, stunning views, food, charm and proximity to all that the area has to offer. Walk to the train station to visit nearly everything without car, yet stay in the peace and tranquility overlooking the Sea.
