Address
Via Finestrale, 9 - Anacapri

Ancient island architecture, award winning Italian interior design and Mediterranean hospitality. Just three of the reasons why those in the know are falling over backwards to book one of the two rooms at Caprisuite: a miniature maison de charme hidden amidst the lanes of the historic center of Anacapri.

Dating back to the 17th century, the loggia, court yard, sitting room and bedrooms of this hip little hideaway were once part of the convent of the Church of San Michele, one of Capri's most beautiful houses of worship. Today, the centuries old walls are hung with mesh caged mirrors and photographer Luciano Romano's gigantic images; whilst furniture by designer Paolo Piva and iron sculptor Antonino Sciortino take center stage in the sitting room.

The bold juxtaposition of old and new continues in the guest house's two suites, where massif stone walls and 19th century beds combine with free standing anthracite resin showers and brightly colored linen by textile designer Livio De Simone, to create the coolest of contemporary living environments. In the superior suite, a plunge pool offers moments of blissful relaxation after a day by the sea.

At Caprisuite early birds are not the only ones to catch the proverbial worm, indeed, in this luxury guesthouse, freshly baked breakfast brioche and fragrant Italian coffee are available whatever time of the day guests choose to rise. Those keen to savor the island's fabulous fish cuisine, can either head to one of the nearby restaurants or hire a personal chef to whip them up an unforgettable Mediterranean feast, served in Caprisuite's attractive little courtyard.

An intimate island bolt hole, custom-designed for style-conscious holidaymakers keen to experience the peace and quiet of Anacapri, Caprisuite lies within easy walking distance of all of the town's major tourist attractions, including the beaches of Faro and Gradola. Those unable to resist the pull of Capri's Piazzetta, can reach the celebrity-packed square in just a few minutes, by bus or aboard one of the island's legendary open top taxis.

Perfection

If you are looking for something chic and personalised, Capri Suite is exactly that. An interesting monastic space that has been cleverly converted into two suites- ideal if you take over the whole thing with 2 couples as you can play house (like you life is something out of Elle Deco). Host Michela was a delight- gorgeous breakfast, useful local knowledge, immaculate english and arranged a heavenly round-island boat trip for us. In a place that has the potential to feel hectic and touristy, the Capri Suite experience felt like a unique magical oasis and provided something inspiring from every angle (just as inspiring as any sea view)- a lot more than a bed for the night.

I guess expectations were to high!

I had seen pictures, articles about this place in several magazines, websites, before I finally booked it, so I guess I was really looking forward to finally staying there. but somehow , when I actually got there, it was not at all what I was hoping for. the only good aspect of it was I booked in annacapri instead of capri, which is a lot quieter and nicer in may ways! as per the B&B , the building itself was interesting and our room was massive , however the interior designer just tried to wow common travellers rather than really thinking any of his suggestions is actually adding value to the space. the bathroom was massive and nice, and yet you did not know where to put ur shampoos and other bottles. water was all over the floor after each shower as they had decided there s no need for the shower screen. general cleanness of the room was really beyond disappointing. nowadays in a luxary b&b in Europe you kind of think they should keep it clean. a bath tub under the window in the bedroom, only made it impossible to enjoy the window! and if you have problem with damp, there will be plenty of it there! the lady managing it however is very nice and friendly. breakfast was very simple, I m all for a simple breakfast but this one was a bit disappointing, every time asking for water to come to ur table rather than just have it! or if your preferred breakfast is cornetto perhaps a basket of mix of few of them would have looked more appealing rather than just 1 on your plate! anyhow, the island is magnificent so you don t really stay in for long!

The sacred and the profane.

Born from the old cloister of St Michele Church in Anacapri, this place represents the perfect meltdown among the sacred nature of the building that hosts it, the luxury of its details and the minimalism that the most sophisticated tourist should find in Anacapri (that is not Capri, of course). The most representative sign of this fusion are the original tiles, in the huge bathroom of one (the biggest) out of the two rooms, that continue, magically, from the church neighboring to the vaulted ceilings going through the frescoes walls. The furniture is absolutely over and over any comparison with the most luxury hotel on the island with design lamps, sofas, beds from the trendiest and iconographic designers, from the modernists to the contemporary ones, keeping the contact with the wilder nature of Anacapri with a palette of colors that goes from the white to the blue through the yellow of the lemons. This is absolutely a masterpiece of the already affirmed architect and manager of Caprisuite, Giuliano Andrea dell'Uva. Aplacewheretogo!

Coolest thing about Capri

The Caprisuite hotel is such a stunning design hotel. As an interior designer I am always on the lookout for design hotels at reasonable prices. The hotel creates such a great environment we spent most of our time in the hotel! Capri was unbelievably touristy with an average age of travelers in their mid 40s. The yellow room is quite small however so if you can afford it I strongly recommend the blue room.

Map

In the heart of Anacapri, in what was once the convent of the Chiesa di San Michele, church famous for its majolica pavement depicting the Expulsion of Adam and Eve, Caprisuite is the perfect base for those wishing to explore this, the quietest and, arguably, most exclusive part of the island of Capri.

Right bang in the center of the picturesque historic center of Anacapri, Caprisuite is just a few meters away from the Casa Rossa museum and any number of bars and restaurants.

The Axel Munthe museum house and the chairlift to Monte Solaro are both within easy walking distance. The Grotta Azzurra, the island's beaches and Capri's Piazzetta are all just a short bus or taxi ride away.
