The Don Alfonso 1890 district is located in the heart of Sant'Agata sui due Golfi, right on the Sorrentine Peninsula, just a few kilometers from the Amalfi Coast. In a unique location for a sea holiday, just a few kilometers from the ports of Marina del Cantone and Massa Lubrense where you can rent the famous Sorrentine gozzo (a small fishing boat) (a typical boat). The view of the coast from the sea is one of the most interesting sights in the world and it is a wonderful way to enjoy all the typical bays and coves of this area to take a swim or just relax in the summer sun.
By boat, whether heading toward Capri or the magic Amalfi Coast, you will be mesmerized by its beauty. The views of Capri are famous the world over but experiencing them first hand is very special. Another must is taking a walk along a quiet alleyway or in the crowded and lively piazzetta along with a visit to the surprising Grotta Azzurra with its mythical bright reflections. The return trip is a chance to see the quaint "Le Peracciole" Farmhouse from the sea, located amongst the luxurious and wild-growing Mediterranean scrub.
If you go in the opposite direction, toward the Amalfi Coast, there are breathtaking overhands and small but enchanting beaches. The small "Li Galli" archipelago is a like a chain of romantic stops. In addition to the many coves, there are, of course, Positano and Amalfi.
If you love to walk, the peninsula offers more than 100 kilometers of trails from the easy to the challenging. The Pathway of the Gods, the Punta Campanella trail, is famous worldwide but there are many other trails available and hotel staff will be delighted to make recommendations and help you select one. Expert local guides are also available to accompany you on the trails.
By car, there are many other places to visit: Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi, Ravello, Pompei, Ercolano, Naples. Naples can also be reached by hydrofoil so you can stroll down its charming streets, the San Gregorio Armeno nativity area, the National Archeological museum, the National Museum of Capodimonte, the Santa Chiara Monastery, the San Severo Chapel, the Duomo of San Gennaro, the Pio Monte di Misericordia with its magnificent frescoes by Caravaggio, Palazzo Reale, the Maschio Angioino, underground Naples and many other treasures...
