LOVE this hotel!! The rooms nice spacious and vey clean. Beds are comfortable. A beautiful ocean view terrace to have breakfast or a glass of wine. , A family owned hotel, Anthony, George, Mia and her brother were all so LOVELY, helpful and accommodating. Honestly they made our trip! Great location in Praiano, a few minutes to the bus stop, less than 10 min walk to the beach. We walked to town for dinner maybe a 20 min walk to town. Much quieter than Positano. If you stay in Praiano this is def where u want to stay!

Beautiful views of the Mediterranean, delicious breakfast (best croissants we've ever had), and the very responsive, helpful staff made this a wonderful trip. Antonio booked us a car service from the airport, arranged another car service to take us to Pompeii on the way to the train station after check-out, and stayed late to check us in. You can also buy a bus ticket at the market next door for 1.50 euros to go to Amalfi or Positano, so it's very easy to see the whole Amalfi coast from this location.

The Maresca family are wonderful hosts and their small hotel is spectacular. Antonio, George and Sal were attentive to our every need. Sal arranged multiple dinners for us and offered exceptional advice for local restaurants, shopping, excursions and transportation. We spent 9 nights at Hotel Maresca. We left new friends behind and are taking home wonderful memories. Thank you all. Hope to see you again!
Breakfast each morning on the patio. Amazing!

Best hotel staff and amazing seaview

The best things about this hotel were the beautiful seaview and the most friendly staff. As soon as I checked in I was greeted with a friendly face and they explained everything that was around and how to get to Positano and Amalfi. He explained it very thoroughly and made the experience very easy. Loved this place, will go back again!

Hotel Maresca is a quaint hotel on the Amalfi Coast. It’s conveniently located and easy to get to the local beach, restaurants and nearby towns (Positano and Amalfi). Stunning views from the breakfast terrace and the room’s terrace with a canopy of lemons was wonderful to sit outside. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful.

We loved our stay at Hotel Maresca. The staff was so friendly and helpful with arranging private transfers to/from the airport, hotel and train station. Amazing location just steps to the bus stop to go anywhere in Praiano along with the SITA busses for the entire coast. Hotel felt very safe as there is a gate that locks at midnight nobody has access to besides hotel guests. Great location if you are planning to see more towns on the coast, highly recommend staying in Praiano at Hotel Maresca. Room was cleaned daily and had an amazing view of the water. We would stay again!

It's a family owned location and the whole family is very eager to assist you with information and to help you find transportation. I would definitely recommend this hotel many times over.

We had a brilliant stay here. The convenience store right above is incredibly useful but we need to give a HUGE shout out to the staff. We were left stranded the day we were leaving for Naples, no ferries due a storm which meant the buses and taxis were all full. Two hours stood at a bus stop! But very very kindful a member of the staff drove us all the way to Sorrento (an hour away) so we could catch a train. Saved our lives. Highly recommend this hotel.

Great hotel with a greater staff!

The staff were all very friendly, kind, and accommodating. Sasha and I would like to give a special shout out to Mia who provided such great recommendations for day-trip ideas and restaurants during our honeymoon. Thank you, Mia! Also, pictures do not do justice to the view from the patio, or from anywhere you try to take a picture from the Amalfi Coast, so nobody will be disappointed by the view. We had a rental car, and the hotel provided very convenient parking, and being located in Praiano, was a short drive to either Positano (in the West), or Amalfi, Maiori, Minori, and Ravello (in the East). We drove the car back to Naples, and it was an easy drive.

We really loved our stay at Hotel Maresca and in Praiano! Our room was clean and spacious, with a magnificent view of the sea. You can tell that they take pride in maintaining the hotel. The breakfast was simple but the quality was top notch! They offered fresh eggs (however you liked it) and fresh caffe. Antonio was so helpful and recommended some great places to explore. We loved chatting to him as he is so kind and welcoming. The only feedback is that the shower pressure in the bathroom was weak. Overall, we had a fabulous time in Praiano and would definitely stay at Hotel Maresca again! Thank you Zio Antonio! :)

The property is very nice. Well maintained. Tip when arriving to hotel get off at BUS STOP 10! Which is in front of the hotel. Downtown is bus stop 7. We got off bus stop 7 and walked a half mile to the hotel. It is a beautiful walk though. Family owned and staffed and very attentive and friendly. They will make you eggs any style and coffee any style. Eat breakfast with an amazing view. No food allowed in rooms but understandable. They don’t want to get ants in the room. They have a great a/c system that if you open the windows it’s turns off. So keep that in mind. Mia and Salvatore at front desk were so kind and helpful.The hotel is walking distance to free beach with great and affordable places to eat. I am a 64 years old and everything was walkable. Some restaurants provide free shuttle service. There is a Great little market owned by Stephane and his parents. Can buy tickets for bus at a discount price in market in front of hotel. My husband and I travel often and have stayed in the best, four seasons to the worst. This is a little gem. We did not want to leave. I will tell all my friends and family to stay here.
