Sorrento Area (Salerno Airport)

Sorrento Area (Salerno Airport) holidays

When you visit this iconic cliff-side coastline, you’ll be in for plenty of glitz and glam. This is where charming hillside towns like Sant ‘Agnello and Seiano ooze seaside charm and where life revolves around feasting on linguine, sipping aperitifs and people-watching behind designer shades. Sorrento centre is the beating heart, boasting buzzy piazzas and picturesque parks – it exudes elegance around every corner. When it comes to stunning views, Sant’Agnello knows a thing or two and it’s a quieter alternative for those seeking solace on the coast. Around 10km from Sorrento lies Seiano, a dinky village with a luscious green backdrop and coastal panoramas – ideal if you like a scenic hike. And if you can tear yourself away from village-hopping, vineyard visits, jet-setter islands, and the archaeological wonder of Pompeii are all on offer too.

Picture-perfect towns

The Riviera's star of the show is Sorrento. Home to two lovely marinas and a maze of cute, cobbled streets, its understated elegance is nothing short of charming. On the Amalfi Coast, Positano is a vision of pastel-coloured villas with the most superb sea views, while dreamy Ravello boasts sweeping vistas, polished piazzas and sculpted gardens.


Buon appetito

When it comes to food and drink, this part of Italy is star-spangled – yup, there are lots of Michelin restaurants to try. And you can stir your senses with a taste of Sorrento’s famous lemon liquor, limoncello. The sun-soaked lemons here are so sweet and for the best buffalo mozzarella, you’re in the right place. Try some on a Pizza Margherita, another local creation. Grab a harbourside table for sparkling sea views or head to Piazza Tasso for a buzzy square setting.


More to explore

The archaeological phenomenon of Pompeii is an absolute must-see on every Sorrento holiday. At this ancient city frozen in time, you’ll be amazed by the well-preserved artefacts on show – plus it’s just a train ride away. Favoured by the rich and famous, the island of Capri oozes glitz and glam. Make like the jet-setters and sail across to this exclusive sun-drenched retreat.
