CAPRI TRAVEL GUIDE
There is something magical about the island of Capri; its a little slice of heaven located just off the insanely beautiful Amalfi Coast. The Italian phrase La Dolce Vita or the good life is the spirit of Capri. The town is filled with old school glamour and beauty that inspires my wardrobe everytime I arrive home! This summer I had the opportunity to go with my family celebrate my sisters graduation and absolutely loved every second! Today I wanted to share with you my Capri travel guide–
Where to stay…
Capri has so many beautiful hotels, you can’t go wrong. My family and I stayed at The Grand Hotel Quisisana located in the center of town, which we loved. It was very easy to get to all the restaurants and shops, and the hotel had a great view of Faraglioni. They also have the best breakfast, that you probably saw on my snap and insta stories. Hotel Scalinatella is the sister hotel of the Quisisana and is also so beautiful– these are just two of so many hotels on the island. Capri Palace is also an amazing hotel located in Anacapri with beautiful swimming pools and views.
Where to eat…
Aurora- famous for their thin crust pizza with a super cool atmosphere.
Villa Verde- another great pizza restaurant with an adorable patio.
Da Paolino- AMAZING– Perched inside of a lemon grove with the most amazing huge lemon trees all over your head — dessert buffet is so good!! Definitely a must.
Geranium- perfect atmosphere for a special dinner with a beautiful balcony and view of the ocean!
La Fontelina- Famous blue and white striped beach club- a really fun place to have lunch and people watch.
La Capannina Capri- family owned restaurant famous for amazing seafood and pasta that became Jackie O’s favorite restaurant in Capri.
Best Gelato is in the center of town right next to the Quisisana– they make there cones in front of you so they are warm when you eat them…!!!! The smell of HOT waffle cones will have you stopping for one everytime you walk by!!
Every restaurant in Capri is awesome. Great pasta, seafood, and gelato options so you can’t go wrong…the people are all so nice and welcoming!
Where to shop…
100% capri- beautiful linen (Classic European look)
*Delfina Capri- MY FAVE shop on Capri– cutest stuff ever…!!! Adorable gingham bikinis, the cutest little purses (where i got my woven bag with the pom poms) and great accessories
Capri Touch- Under the Capri Palace — super cool store & they hand make sandals there so you can customize your own shoes– a MUST!
There are so many stores hidden around Capri Square — I love just walking around and peeking in each store!
What to do…
Our favorite thing to do stop along the Amalfi coast visiting Nerano-BEST restaurant that is a MUST-La Scoglio, Ischia, Positano-all the fun shops and bright umbrellas along the beach, or Amalfi-BEST gelato ever SAVOIA is a must … Seriously best food and views. You feel like a TRUE Italian.. I just wish i could live there!!! Another fav was wandering the island finding unique shops and stores! Everyday was MAGICAL!
MUCH LOVE
