Superb Sorrento Stay

We loved everything about our stay in Sorrento. The owners were extremely nice and even picked us up at the train station & transported our luggage to our room. They provided some snacks & drinks to us as well. Great location in Sorrento. We would definitely stay here again!

Our family of four enjoyed a 5

Our family of four enjoyed a 5-night stay at Casa Doretta last month - (June, 2019) - as part of a month long journey throughout Europe, and it was the highlight of our holiday! Vittorio and Christina are gracious and generous hosts and greeted us like family! The accommodations were spacious and comfortable and impeccably clean and the location is just perfect to explore Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast. We loved being close to the center square but removed enough for peace and quiet. This was our first time in Sorrento and we could not have made a better choice! We highly recommend Casa Doretta! Working with Summer in Italy was fantastic -- (we just found you during a general internet search of rental apartments in Sorrento!) - and we sincerely appreciated all of your exemplary communication and assistance. It was a pleasure, and we hope to utilize your services again in the future.

Perfect 2 bedroom close to everything Sorrento

Loved our 4 night stay at Casa Doretta. The apartment is close to beach, shopping, tour operators and great dining. The management was excellent!! Clean apartment and well stocked for making meals. Would return if opportunity arrives. Thank-you so much.

The view in the photo is from the front balcony

The view in the photo is from the front balcony - stunning! The back has a shady courtyard like a personal oasis. The front was busy during the day, great for people watching but the doors and shutters ensured peace at night. We had everything we needed at the apartment, just like "home from home". The harbour was a few steps away via a lift and the beautiful old town with a maze of alleys and interesting shops, restaurants and cafes was on our doorstep. The owners were there to greet us and couldn't be more helpful - we could text them for tips too (nothing was too much trouble for them). Lovely people, so attentive with everything. They were there to greet us and carry our cases up the short flight of steps. They showed us the apartment. Air conditioning and had even set the TV in the kitchen for us on the BBC news! The fridge had supplies of milk, water, butter and other items and the cupboards had some provisions for those who may want to cook - plus cleaning materials. They came to say goodbye and helped co-ordinate our taxi to the airport. Throughout the stay, they were there if we needed them. The Summer In Italy team were excellent at answering our emails and questions prior to the trip and just before we arrived re drop off. Everyone has been so helpful and pleasant - thank you so much for helping to organize such a memorable holiday!

An absolute delight!

I took my parents to Sorrento and we stayed here. It was great that every bedroom has its own bathroom. The kitchen was our central gathering place, as there is no living room, but that worked fine for us. We spent hours having coffee and cooking meals, enjoying the sunny vista and the bustle of the street below. Everything is an easy walk, all the restaurants, shopping, and tour stops are nearby. Overall, the apartment was clean and well stocked, and our host were informative and friendly. We would definitely rent this property again.

We are retired ladies who found Casa Doretta to be a perfect place from which to base our stay in So

We are retired ladies who found Casa Doretta to be a perfect place from which to base our stay in Sorrento. The location is excellent, close both to the elevators/ramp down to the beach and port area, as well as to the town center. The apartment was well supplied with everything we needed for our stay, linens, soap, shampoo, etc. We only needed to shop for groceries for our breakfast. The market was a short distance away just beyond Piazza Tasso. The bedrooms and adjoining bathrooms were perfect for us. The beds were comfortable, bathrooms and showers spacious and well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The only drawback to staying here is that there is no living room. If you are the type of traveler who spends a lot of time at your hotel/apartment and wants to have comfortable seating to relax after a busy day, this may not be the place for you. We had full days sightseeing each day we were there and this was not a huge issue for us. There is adequate seating in the kitchen and on the back terrace. In addition, be forewarned that you might be awakened by church bells and singing in the morning! It contributed to the ambience of being in Sorrento! The owner and his lady friend were very accommodating, meeting us upon our arrival from the airport, helping us with luggage, providing ample maps and information about our location and sightseeing opportunities. The description of the property sounded like it would be perfect for our group of single ladies traveling together. The location also sounded perfect as we would be walking to the train station several days for our visits to Pompeii and Naples. I found the booking process to be easy, with prompt replies to my questions.

Casa Doretta is a 'must book' property

Casa Doretta is a 'must book' property. I simply can't recommend this place enough - Book it... You'll love it. All of the bedrooms are really spacious, with great storage and all having double beds with an on-suite (which is more like a main bathroom in every room if I'm honest as they're a good size) and air conditioning in every room, which is easy to control. Everything was catered for... Hairdryer, plenty of towels, iron, extra blankets, umbrella for if it rained (it was 30 degrees when we went!). A bedroom replaces a main sitting area but believe me it doesn't impact on your enjoyment... We sat on the balcony most afternoons watching the street below from the kitchen. The kitchen itself has loads of stuff packed in to make your stay easier if you decide to cook, with a tv (which is also in each of the bedrooms too). The apartment itself is practically next door to the cloisters where a multitude of weddings take place. These are lovely to watch... And if you have enough of people watching, simply close the shutters and internal doors (which are excellent by the way), and suddenly you have a lovely quiet atmosphere. These doors are amazing as they make bedrooms pitch-dark. It a bustling street outside and you're right in the heart of the old town - you have so many restaurants, bars and gorgeous side streets on your door step... You don't need to walk for ages to see everything as you're simply a short stroll away from all the best bits of Sorrento. Less than 10 min walk from the train station to Pompeii; bus stop to take you to Positano, or harbour to get the boat to Capri. Next to the cloisters on the other side are gorgeous views of the sea and Mount Vesuvius, and this is where you'll find the steps to the small public beach and host of private beaches where you can hire sunbeds.We were a family with two older children and can say that both us two adults and both kids loved the apartment. We're not people who like to lie around by a pool so this location was great giving us access to everything we needed, and we still managed to grab time most afternoons to quickly walk down to the sea and grab a swim so it really did tick all boxes. Cristina and Vittorio, the owners, are amazing. They'd got water in for us, gave us some great information about the local area (even marking on a map the best places to go), made sure we knew how to use everything; leaving their contact number in case we needed them, and helped provide recommendations for rest

Casa Doretta fit our family of 6 people perfectly

Casa Doretta fit our family of 6 people perfectly. Each bedroom having a full en-suite bathroom with shower was very convenient. The kitchen and the dinner courtyard served as our meeting places. Everything we needed was provided. The air conditioning worked perfectly during the unusually hot weather we had. The location couldn't be better. Steps away from the convenient lift to the beach and port and right in the heart of Sorrento's old town with lots of restaurants and shops right outside our door. The hosts, Cristina and Vittorio, are wonderful. We loved everything about Casa Doretta and were sorry we had to leave after our week there. Very professional service from Summer In Italy. Will definitely consider your service again on our next trip. Thank you for a terrific experience, start to finish.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Doretta

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Doretta. Location is ideal an easy walk to most areas in Sorrento. The apartment was clean and well stocked. There is no living room only a kitchen with a table. Bedrooms are spacious. Bathrooms very nice. I would stay there again. Great price for the location and convenience of being within walking distance to everything, train and bus station, ferry boat station, main square, restaurants, shopping and beach. Internet access worked very well. It would be ideal if it had a washer and dryer but the laundry is within walking distance too. Owners are very helpful in providing information on sights, ways to get around and restaurants. They responded immediately to every request we made and even picked up our laundry for us! Summer In Italy was very easy to do business with. Directions and contact information was all perfect. All logistics worked out great. Thank you!

The location was perfect we walked everywhere and where very close to trains and buses for all our day trips. The airline lost our luggage which we received four days later and the owner Vittorio traced it finally down for us. He went out of his way to assist us! He also drove us to fish market. He was our perfect host and I would definitely book Casa Doretta again! Grazie Vittorio! I was very impressed with all the follow up I received and would book through Summer In Itanly again. Thank you.

We enjoyed our stay in Casa Doretta

We enjoyed our stay in Casa Doretta. The one thing the apartment lacked was a living room but that was our mistake at the booking stage. Nevertheless we were quite happy with the property, its location, mainly, and the helpfulness of the owners. The terrace was a bit disappointing, though. The kitchen was very nice and was well stocked. We were very impressed with the owner. Because we arrived mid evening in Napoli, we arrived quite late in Sorrento but he was there waiting for us with his wife and spent some time explaining everything to us. We were very impressed with Summer In Italy. We had a number of questions we asked you at and after the booking stage and you were always quick and courteous in your replies. Well done!

We were 3 couples traveling in Italy and spent 3 nights in Casa Doretta in September. Great to find 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, great bathrooms, comfortable beds, the kitchen was a bit small for 6 adults but we were there only 3 nights. It is a perfect location, a few steps from shops, restaurants and sea. It is located on a busy road but once the good quality windows are closed, you don't hear anything. Overall a great place to stay. The owners were very welcoming and accommodating arranging to meet us early to put our luggage in the apartment. Summer In Italy was a very good company to deal with. Very helpful and easy to work with. Thank you!

We very much enjoyed Casa Doretta

We very much enjoyed Casa Doretta. The apartment was carefully chosen and suited our requirements exactly. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable. The location was ideal for us within easy walking distance of all the places we wanted to visit in Sorrento. There were plenty of restaurants to choose from for our evening meals. We were able to walk to the station to visit Naples and Pompeii and to the harbour where we got the ferry to Naples and to Capri. The owner met us on arrival and was extremely helpful. He provided lots of useful information to help us find our way until we became familiar with the area. On departure we were able to leave our luggage securely at the property until our time to go to the airport. The owner also organized a taxi to get to the airport. He could not have been more helpful or friendly. We hope to return to Sorrento and will stay at Casa Doretta again. Efficient and easy to book with Summer In Italy. Would definitely recommend to others and would use again.

We loved staying at Casa Doretta

We loved staying at Casa Doretta. The apartment was very clean, and had lots of extra little things - like laundry detergent, iron and some staple food supplies (oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, coffee, tea, sugar etc) - which came in handy when we wanted to eat in the apartment. The location was perfect as it was right in the middle of Sorrento, just a short walk to the port, shops and restaurants. Vittorio and Cristina [the owners] were so helpful – they came to meet us and show us around the apartment, they had lots of helpful information about places to go and where to eat. We would highly recommend Casa Doretta and Summer In Italy to go through and we will definitely use them again.

Casa Doretta was the best for our family of two adult sons, and my husband and I

Casa Doretta was the best for our family of two adult sons, and my husband and I. Three ensuited bedrooms is the best way to go! This spotlessly clean, quiet apartment is located in a very well kept modernised building, and is within a central location with eateries and shopping. The bus and train is a ten minute walk away. It is a two minute walk to the elevators which take you down to the beach and ferries. We booked from Australia and Luca was very prompt and helpful with our questions, before we left for our family reunion in Sorrento. We made many happy memories there. I would highly recommend this beautifully refurbished and bright apartment. I wish I could go back there and do it all again.
