Casa Mao

Dirty and spartan rooms with ants and mosquitos. A long exhausting zigzag bumpy ramp to the cuomo. Definitely a disasre and not recommend!

Good experience overall

地點比較難找,但房間很乾淨,民宿主人態度服務皆很棒,是值得一去的地方

Casa Mao was a big disappointment. The hotel is far up the mountain, requiring around 140 steep steps to reach — not clearly mentioned when booking. We had to pay €30 each way for a luggage handler, and on departure, the receptionist sent our bags down early without telling us there’d be an extra €20 charge. In total, we spent €80 extra just for luggage. Service was unwelcoming. No free water (every other hotel we stayed at provided some), and they charge €1.50 per bottle. On check-out day, staff banged on our door at 8:30 a.m. and again at 9:50, rushing us even though check-out is 10 a.m. The power shuts off when you leave the room, including the fridge, and you’re greeted with a long list of rules at check-in, which sets an unpleasant tone. Between the hidden access issues, extra costs, and rude service, Casa Mao was not worth it. Choose a hotel closer to the port instead.

I would not recommend Casa Mao due to the 160 step narrow climb to this property. Someone could easily experience a medical episode. Gianfranco suggests using the porter service but he should be providing this 80 euro for two suitcase service complimentary to his guests. Consider staying in the Amalfi town centro or better value in Maiori with only a 5 euro 10 minute ferry ride to Amalfi. Casa Mao advertises as bed and breakfast but doesnt serve breakfast while surrounding properties do. This property seems more interested in profit instead of quality guest service. The rooms themselves are clean and comfortable but poor location and below average service will see fewer guests stay here.

Great stay! Great place to stay. Service was excellent and place was clean and as described. Would stay again.

The owner met us at the port after we arrived by boat. He walked us through town and up the many stairs to our hotel telling us about its rich history. He was super kind and accommodating! The view and outdoor terrace were breathtaking! My favorite place to stay in Amalfi so far 🇮🇹❤️

Thanks to the property manager he supplied me with a video to get to the hotel as it is slightly confusing but wasn’t a problem with the video. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning. Open the windows and see Amalfi and the giant mountains.

This is a home owner residential rental basically. It was located up the hill with lots of twisted alleys. There's no sign for the hotel name. It's very difficult to find. When we arrive at 4pm, the door was closed and nobody in service. We waited 2 hrs in the rain and finally the owner came. The room is OK, but for all the trouble finding and hundred steps up and down, just avoid this listing
