Anacapri
Hotel Caesar Augustus
This magnificent old grand dame of a hotel, a Relais & Chateaux property, was recently renovated, and it’s now the premier deluxe resort on Capri, with 55 elegant, antiques-filled rooms and suites with sweeping, postcard views over the Bay of Naples. It perches imperiously atop a sheer, thousand-foot cliff that plunges into the glittering waters below, all just outside the mountain village of Anacapri. In the evening, you’ll enjoy spectacular sunsets from the terrace bar followed by a classic caprese tasting menu at the new La Terrazza di Lucullo restaurant, next to the infinity pool.
Room to Book:
Each of the five suites is well situated, but in the Suite Tiberio (named for the Emperor who moved the capital of Rome to his Capri villa), you can admire the Campania panorama from the comfort of your own canopy bed—or from the Jacuzzi in the bathroom.
Insider Tip:
Head below the pool level for a wellness area furnished with a small gym, Turkish steam room, and bamboo-shaded tables for alfresco massages.
