A short or long stay in Anacapri will always be full of pleasant surprises, interesting discoveries, unique and unforgettable.
In contrast to the glamour and crowds of Capri’s “Piazzetta”, stands the discreet charm of Anacapri, less known on the international stage; more hidden and intimate, yet certainly less predictable and more evocative. The rugged and wild beauty of its natural landscapes, the narrow streets of the historic center winding among white houses, the paths branching out to the sea through the terraced countryside, the magic of peaceful places even during the busiest periods of the season; for everyone, Anacapri is a delightful “discovery”.
But what truly makes the atmosphere of Anacapri unique is the hospitality of its inhabitants, the simplicity of their way of life and that sense of familiarity that strikes and involves the guest who comes to stay here. One thus rediscovers the pleasure of long walks, encounters and relationships with others in order to rediscover oneself.
Everywhere there is something that captures the eye and the emotions: from the breathtaking views of Monte Solaro and the Migliara viewpoint, to those of the villa-museum of Axel Munthe; from the picturesque sunsets at the imperial villa of Damecuta, to the spectacular sea storms at the Punta Carena Lighthouse; from historical and nature walks along paths and “forts”, to the history and art of the Church of San Michele, the Casa Rossa, and the hermitage of Cetrella; and then the Blue Grotto, with its cobalt-blue waters that invite one to dream. And there is still much more: it can be experienced 365 days a year, finding it different every day and continually discovering something new.
But Anacapri is also shopping, “life” and culture: night venues enliven the evenings of those who enjoy staying out late; shops offer the latest fashion trends and local handcrafted products such as perfumes, liqueurs, artistic ceramics, sandals and knitwear. The season of concerts is intense and varied, organized by musical associations that collaborate with internationally renowned artists.
The charm of this part of the island has always attracted famous poets and writers and, in more recent times, celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, art, fashion and the international jet set.
All this, without in any way giving up the equally great beauty, glamour, pleasures, elegance and myth of nearby Capri, which can be reached in just a few minutes.
