Bed and Breakfast Villa Pane Resort - Sorrento

Food was excellent but did not know price we were paying until got final bill at end of stay. Would have prefered to see exactly what we were being charged for each day. Sorrento very expensive for food and drinks, so thought meals at Villa Pane were good value. Beware taxi drivers, we got charged 24 euros for journey from station at Sorrento to Villa pane (10 minute journey)

First, my best to the family of the establishment for making the stay so wonderful. If you have an opportunity to stay at the Villa Pane, you will not be disappointed! The location is outside the typical tourist hotel area, so we were able to get away, rest and relax at the end of many busy day. The B&B is apx 10 min. drive from Sorrento center, and the available drive service provided was all that was needed to get to and from the main points (marina, train station, shops, etc). The location is situated directly in a residential area, so it was really a much better way to have a more personal experience. As if staying in a close family friends home, anything that was needed could be asked and if available, they would be more then happy to try and accomodate. As two moms traveling with children (4, 10 and 14), it was absolutely ideal as the area, the family and other guests were simply delightful and gave us a secure feeling with the children. The pool, although described as small, was just a perfect way to cool down in the evenings; the scenery and views were fantastic anytime of the day. And of course, you will find the B&B is praised for the food & for good reason. For us, the incredible food was beyond expectations. Before leaving for a long day, guests were welcomed with a fresh varity of breads, meats, cheese, pastries (all cooked on site), juice or anything else fresh that day (picking figs straight from the trees to prepare a morning tart was appreciated). If there for lunch, food could be prepared. Dinner was so wonderful that after having each meal cooked specifically for you (remind you, can take a very long time so be prepared & patient), any thought about having to wait was forgotten as everything tasted fabulous, and unforgettable. Our children even fell asleep eating as they tried not to miss anything brought to the table. What more can I say..enjoy.

Delightful mother & son owners. Evening meals lovely though they wouldn't quote prices until we received the bill. Access road is crazy - will only take Citreon C3 size car. Otherwise you have to park where the road narrows and walk or phone B & B for lift. They charged us for longer lifts and didn't tell us the rate at the time which was a shame. Owners have 700 olive trees and also make their own Limonciello! Excellent stuff! Took delightful evening meals there. Lovely pasta but again, no prices given at the time. If you like something a bit different it is quite lovely.

We were very pleased with Villa Pane - the owners very nice and friendly, someone available most of the time. Our room was lovely, wonderful views over the Bay of Naples. 1 mark off because of noise from other guests' plumbing!!! The only irritation was not being able to easily walk to the town from the B & B, having to rely completely on the owner's shuttle. This was OK but found we were waiting rather a lot, either to go down to the town, or come back. Only a minor problem.
