Capri, a jewel in the Tyrrhenian Sea, is the epitome of Mediterranean luxury.

Known for its dramatic cliffs, azure waters, and refined charm, this exclusive destination has been a favorite of celebrities, royalty, and discerning travelers for centuries.


If you’re planning a luxurious getaway to Capri, here’s everything you need to know to make your visit unforgettable.


Arriving in Style

The journey to Capri begins with an air of elegance. Private helicopter transfers from Naples or Sorrento offer breathtaking aerial views of the Amalfi Coast. Alternatively, charter a luxury yacht for a leisurely sail to the island, arriving at the picturesque Marina Grande in true style. For those who prefer private speedboats, they’re available for direct transfers and come with the bonus of personalized service and privacy.

Staying in Luxury

Capri is home to some of the world’s most exclusive accommodations. Here are a few standout options:

  • Hotel Quisisana: This iconic five-star hotel in the heart of Capri town boasts opulent rooms, impeccable service, and a serene spa.

  • Capri Palace Jumeirah: Located in Anacapri, this luxury retreat blends sophisticated design with panoramic views of the Gulf of Naples.

  • Private Villas: For the ultimate privacy, consider renting a lavish villa with a pool, lush gardens, and personalized staff services.


Exploring the Island - Private Boat Tours: 

The best way to experience Capri’s stunning coastline is by private boat. Cruise around the island to explore hidden coves, secluded beaches, and iconic spots like the Blue Grotto and Faraglioni Rocks. Many tours offer gourmet dining on board, ensuring an indulgent experience at sea.

Fine Dining Experiences

Capri’s culinary scene is as extraordinary as its landscapes. Indulge in Michelin-starred dining at L’Olivo or savor traditional Caprese cuisine at Da Paolino, where tables are set beneath a canopy of lemon trees. For an unforgettable sunset experience, dine on a cliffside terrace at La Terrazza di Lucullo in Anacapri.


Cultural and Natural Attractions

Villa San Michele: Perched high above the sea in Anacapri, this historic villa offers stunning gardens and an intimate glimpse into the island’s past.

Monte Solaro: Reach the highest point of Capri by chairlift or guided hike. The panoramic views from the summit are worth every moment.

Piazzetta: Known as the “living room of the world,” the Piazzetta is the island’s vibrant heart. Relax with a cappuccino and enjoy people-watching in this chic, bustling square.


Indulging in Wellness

Capri offers world-class spa experiences. Treat yourself to a rejuvenating massage or a bespoke facial at luxury spa destinations such as the Capri Beauty Farm. Many services incorporate local ingredients like lemons and olive oil for a unique Mediterranean touch.

Insider Tips for a Seamless Experience

  • Visit Off-Peak: While Capri is enchanting year-round, visiting in late spring or early autumn allows you to enjoy the island with fewer crowds.

  • Hire a Private Guide: Gain insider access to hidden gems and personalized recommendations from a local expert.

  • Plan Ahead: Make reservations for dining and activities well in advance, especially during peak season, to secure the best experiences.


Capri’s allure lies in its effortless blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and understated elegance. Whether you’re seeking relaxation, adventure, or indulgence, this island paradise promises a luxury experience unlike any other. Begin planning your Capri getaway today and let the island’s timeless charm enchant you.
