The hotel is unique, interesting and set in a stunning location within a cave with fantastic views. Our spacious room was front facing with superb views. The breakfast was plentiful and is served on the terrace which has fantastic views over the coast - Italo makes a mean cappuccino 🙂. The staff are very good but worth noting that apart from Vincenzo the manager not much English is spoken so a little Italian comes in handy. (Although I'm sure their English is probably better than my attempts at Italian!). Maiori is a good sized town with many bars & restaurants - it's not as "touristy" as Amalfi & Positano which is good. We found it very easy to travel around the coast using the TraVelMar ferry boats from Maiori.

This property is simply amazing! From the history and architecture of the building to the incredible view of the Amalfi coast to the delicious breakfast and lovely staff. Parking was interesting. It is a very tiny, narrow parking area a short distance from the property and is on the cliffside of the hill. The manager offered to park our car for us which we gladly accepted. Finding parking in that area is non-existent so we were thrilled that it was offered by the property. My family highly recommends Badia Santa Maria de' Olearia.

Badia Santa Maria de' Olearia Is beautiful! It was a treat to stay there with my mother for her 70th birthday. The views spectacular from the terrace at breakfast and from our room. It was such a charming and serene space. Beds were the comfiest we found in Italy! Breakfast was delicious with many options. And staff was always so kind and helpful even with language barriers. Vincenzo was the most gracious host and helped arrange taxis and shuttles making everything smooth.

WOW this hotel is a gem in the Amalfi Coast. The views are unbeatable. The location is so unique and far from the town full of tourists. They had our parking spot ready for us, but make sure you call them for instructions. The shuttle to town is a plus, and Franco (driver) was amazing. Make sure you reserve your spot and update them if anything changes on your pick up time. The breakfast was delicious and fresh every day. We can't wait to come back!!! Thank you!!! Vincenzo, Italo, Franco, and Lucia.

the view from the terrace set in a mountain was beautiful. Was interesting and different having been a monastery with appropriate decor to match. Room was nice great shower staff friendly and helpful Vincenzo provided helpful information and Itola and Lucy served our breakfast and kept our rooms clean, they even bought a cake and candles for my wife’s special birthday 🎂 👍🏼🙏🏼❤️

This hotel is spectacular, the views are amazing, its a very small hotel and the staff are exceptional too, nothing too much trouble. Breakfast was a buffet, lots of choice. The rooms are amazing and the hotel built into the rock is second to none. Would highly recommend staying here.

The best part was the abundant breakfast and the terrace in the grotta, overlooking the sea. We met wonderful people - Vincenzo and Italo were excellent hosts! The shuttle service was convenient to the center of Maiori and the driver, Franco, was great. Vincenzo helped park our car during our stay, which was very helpful, given how tight the roads are.

unique type of hotel, carved IN a rock! Delicious breakfast with homemade warm vegetables is served in a véry special outside rock terrace, rooms are still as if the monks live there, special...

Amazing setting! Nestled in a cliffside, this hotel is truly one of a kind. It is small, but the staff are so helpful and friendly. They provide shuttle services into Maiori and connections for parking in town and accessing the beach. The breakfast was lovely. Overall, a wonderful stay!

Very charmant stay, unique experience with beautiful view from the room and breakfast area. Staff are very welcoming (but rarely speaks English), knowing Italian is a plus 😀 Our room was quite small but you have everything you may need (slippers, towels, shampoo etc)
