Description:
Situated 350 meters above the sea, perched on a cliff top, Ravello commands the ultimate panorama over the Amalfi Coast, a magical location that the French poet, Andre Gide, evocatively described as "nearer to the sky than to the shore". It is the ideal site to base yourself for exploring a unique landscape that has inspired the likes of composers Richard Wagner and Edward Grieg, the painters William Turner and Miro, and authors, D.H. Lawrence, Tennessee Williams and Gore Vidal, who still spends part of each year here. Greta Garbo successfully sought refuge from the maddening crowds and prying paparazzi in Ravello, and ever since, it has become a favorite haven for Hollywood stars. -Seasonal Closure- Opening day: April 5th 2007 from 2.00 p.m. Closing day: November 4th 2007 after breakfast
