Why this holiday works
A journey with contrast, purpose and a softer finish
The order matters: culture and city energy come first, while the longest stay is reserved for the coast, when the pace naturally becomes more flexible.
Culture, food and sea views
Well suited to couples who want Rome and Naples to feel substantial, but still value a full week of coastal scenery and slower days.
Movement with purpose
Three nights in Rome, four in Naples and seven on the peninsula create clear stages without turning the holiday into a succession of short hotel stays.
Rail first, car only when useful
High-speed rail joins the two cities. The car is collected only when leaving Naples, avoiding city parking while adding freedom for the final week.
Calmer than staying in Positano
Relais Blu sits above Massa Lubrense rather than in an Amalfi Coast village. It trades immediate village access for space, Capri views and a more restful setting.
Where you stay
Three hotels, each selected for its role in the journey
The accommodation supports the route: a walkable Roman neighbourhood first, a sea-facing Naples base second, then an intimate hotel with enough space to settle for a week.
Rome · 3 nights
Monti Palace Hotel
Rome gives the journey its historical opening, and Monti Palace works because Rione Monti keeps the Colosseum, Roman Forum, restaurants and evening streets within practical reach.
Included and arranged
- Three nights in a Superior Double
- Daily breakfast
- Private airport transfer on arrival
- Three-hour private walking tour of Rome
Naples · 4 nights
Royal Continental Naples
Naples changes the energy of the journey. Four nights allow the waterfront, ancient streets, museums and food culture to be experienced without using the city only as a departure point.
Included and arranged
- Four nights in a Deluxe Sea View room
- Daily breakfast
- Private transfer from Napoli Centrale
- Three-hour private walking tour of Naples
Sorrento Peninsula · 7 nights
Relais Blu
The final week changes the rhythm completely. Relais Blu overlooks Capri from Termini, near Massa Lubrense, with an infinity pool, open terraces and Michelin-star dining.
Included and arranged
- Seven nights in a Deluxe Sea View room
- Daily breakfast
- Seven days’ fully comprehensive car hire
- Private transfer to collect the car after Naples
