Location
Maiori is one of the most visitor-friendly towns on the Amalfi Coast, home to its longest stretch of sandy beach and a pretty seafront promenade of pizzerias, gelaterias and waterfront bars.

From here, it’s easy to day trip to postcard favourites like Amalfi, Ravello and even Sorrento, either by local bus, boat or organised excursion.

Facilities and Rooms | Hotel Residence San Pietro
Restaurants and Bars
Mornings begin with a buffet breakfast in the hotel restaurant, where you can fuel up on continental favourites before heading out along the coast. Highchairs are available for younger guests.
Two bars keep you refreshed throughout the day. Start with an espresso at the cosy coffee bar, then later swap to something chilled from the pool bar, open during the summer season and perfectly placed for a pre-dinner aperitivo by the water.
A smart dress code may apply in the restaurant in the evenings, and opening dates or times can shift slightly between seasons. Reservations or supplements may also vary depending on your board arrangement, so it’s worth checking the latest details at check-in.
Pool Areas and Beach
The heart of the hotel is its outdoor freshwater pool, framed by sunbeds and parasols for long, lazy afternoons. Kids will love the small slides and dedicated children’s section, while grown-ups can relax knowing everyone’s together in one spacious area.
Pool towels are provided free of charge, so you can pack a little lighter. Facilities may vary by pool or season, but there’s usually plenty of space to find your own favourite suntrap.
When you’re ready for the sea, Maiori’s gently shelving sandy beach is about 1km away. It’s one of the largest in the region – brilliant for families or anyone who prefers sand to pebbles – with lidos, bars and plenty of room for a late-afternoon dip.
Spa, Sports and Other Facilities
While this isn’t a full-scale resort, there’s enough to keep active guests entertained between excursions. Challenge friends or family to a game on the paddle or tennis courts (local charges apply), then cool off with a drink at the bar.
Back at reception, the friendly team can help with concierge-style services, luggage storage and a shuttle bus, handy for getting into the centre or down to the seafront when you don’t fancy the walk.
There’s free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, and highchairs are available in the restaurant for families. Some services and opening times are seasonal or subject to local charge.
