The contemporary Capri Palace Hotel & Spa sparkles on the slopes of Monte Solaro, in Anacapri. Its bold designer obviously loved wide-open spaces and vivid colors. The landscaped gardens of the Capri Palace Hotel & Spa, with palm trees and plenty of bougainvilleas, have a large pool, which most guests use as their outdoor living-room. Although it lacks the intimate charms of La Scalinatella in Capri, it's still a wonderful choice because of its setting.

Each of the guest rooms is attractively and comfortably furnished, and from some on a clear day you can see smoking Vesuvius. Many beds (mostly twins) are canopied, and all of them feature quality linens. Each of the four special suites has a private pool and private garden. During summer months, the Capri Palace Hotel & Spa is a home to resident artists and exhibitions of modern art and sculpture. Its own collection of luxury boats provides guests with the most exclusive way to spend a day or evening at sea.

Also this property disposes of two restaurants: L'Olivo, a favorite rendez-vous for the most discerning of gourmets. The young Executive Chef Oliver Glowig has re-interpreted the local traditions, maintaining the genuine flavors of the region and combining them with his particular light and innovative style of cooking. And Mosaico, the perfect place to enjoy a light lunch or an afternoon snack at the poolside.
