Review
The covered walkway leading to this charming four-star near the Augustus Gardens looks straight out of a Martha Stewart photo shoot: the rustic wooden pergola that covers the length of the path is weighed down with lush clusters of purple wisteria, the air smells divine, the sea lies in the distance, and you immediately feel miles away from the crowds of the piazzetta. The family-owned Luna is perched on top of a cliff with stunning views of the Faraglioni rocks (don’t even think about getting anything but a sea view room here).
The fifty-two rooms, including four suites, are classically, if a bit sparsely, decorated, with brightly colored tile floors, wood furnishings and photography and paintings of Capri scenes on the walls. Deluxe and superior rooms come with balconies, and some have two twin-size beds, a nice touch for families or friends traveling together. There’s a pool and a gorgeous terrace that seems to be floating above the sea—even if you’re not staying here, come for an aperitif before heading to dinner in town. The piazzetta is a short walk away, making the Luna a good option for value-conscious travelers who want to be in the heart of the action but don’t want to splurge on the Quisisana.
