Relais Villa Giusso
A historic villa above the Sorrentine coast, rated 4.9 by guests.
A place to stay in Vico Equense
Relais Villa Giusso sits in Vico Equense, on the Sorrentine Peninsula in southern Italy. The property has an on-site restaurant, free parking, a garden, sun deck, and a terrace with pool views — a combination that's harder to find at this price point along the coast. With 117 guest reviews averaging 4.9/5, the hotel draws particular praise for its staff, cleanliness, and value. Room categories run from a compact 23 m² king room up to a 70 m² family suite that sleeps four, so there's a workable option whether you're travelling as a couple or with children.
Who this stay suits
A well-run hotel with a strong restaurant, garden setting, and attentive staff — positioned for travellers who want the Sorrentine Peninsula without the crowds of Sorrento itself.
Best for
- Families with children
- Couples looking for a garden setting
- Guests who want an on-site restaurant and room service
- Travellers needing free parking on the coast
Less suited to
- Those wanting to be walking distance from a large town centre
- Guests seeking an urban property with nightlife on the doorstep
Garden, terrace, and sun deck
The outdoor spaces include a garden, a furnished terrace, and a sun deck. Several room categories look directly onto the garden or pool from their windows, so the view is present whether you're inside or out.
Room sizes and configurations
The five room types range from 23 m² to 70 m². The two largest — the Junior Suite and the Family Suite — give guests enough floor space to actually move around, which matters on a longer stay.
The on-site restaurant
Dining doesn't require leaving the property. The restaurant runs room service alongside its regular service, and the breakfast has been flagged specifically in the hotel's own highlights — described as exceptional.
Activities on the grounds
The hotel runs cooking classes and walking tours, both at an additional charge. There's a playground for children, a ping-pong table, and happy hour sessions also available on request.

Arriving in Vico Equense
Relais Villa Giusso is 29.4 km from Naples Airport (NAP), where the Alibus shuttle runs to Napoli Centrale and the port. The nearest intercity station is Sorrento, about 4.7 km away. Italian cities charge a tourist tax (tassa di soggiorno) per person per night, collected by the property rather than included in the booking total; the rate depends on the city and the property's star rating, and many properties still take it in cash.
Across 117 reviews, Relais Villa Giusso holds a 4.9/5 rating. Guests consistently single out the staff, cleanliness, and value for money as the property's strongest points. The breakfast has been highlighted directly in the hotel's featured amenities, suggesting it's a regular talking point rather than an afterthought.
