Paestum Inn Beach Resort sits directly on a peaceful stretch of the Cilento Coast, surrounded by pine trees and dunes with the sea just steps away. It’s a wonderfully secluded setting, yet you’re only a short drive from the famous Doric temples and museums of the Archaeological Park of Paestum.

With car hire included, you can easily explore local trattorie, quiet coves and traditional villages, or plan longer days out along the Sorrento Area – from postcard-perfect Sorrento itself to Amalfi Coast viewpoints and inland national parks. Evenings back at the resort are all about sunsets, sea breezes and starry skies away from the crowds.

Paestum (Cilento), Sorrento Area, Italy

While the hotel keeps things pleasantly low-key, you can look forward to relaxed Mediterranean dining that makes the most of Campania’s ingredients – think fresh seafood, ripe tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella and local olive oil. Buffet-style and set-menu options may feature, depending on season and occupancy.

A cosy bar serves Italian coffee, aperitivi and after-dinner drinks, ideal for unwinding after a day at the beach or a trip to the Paestum ruins. For more choice, there’s a local restaurant around 300m away, and with your hire car you can easily seek out rustic trattorie and seafront spots along the coast.

Board options include Bed and Breakfast and Half Board, so you can choose between dining flexibility or the ease of having your evening meal included.

Days naturally gravitate towards the water here. The hotel centres around a spacious outdoor swimming pool, framed by sun loungers and parasols with plenty of room to unwind with a book or cool off with a leisurely swim. Facilities may vary between pools if multiple sections are open in high season.

Just beyond the pool you’ll find the hotel’s private beach, a broad sandy strip where you can dip into the Tyrrhenian Sea, stroll along the shoreline or simply relax under the shade of a parasol. The direct access means you can easily move between pool and beach without ever losing sight of the sea.

Paestum Inn Beach Resort is very much about unhurried coastal living rather than high-energy activities. Expect simple leisure facilities focused on the pool and beach, with plenty of space for swimming, sunbathing and beach walks.

Being a Certified Sustainable Hotel, the property also aims to reduce its impact on the surrounding coastal environment, with measures that may include reduced plastic usage, energy-saving systems and support for local suppliers.

Car hire is a key part of the experience here – it’s included as standard and opens up a whole world of natural parks, viewpoint drives and archaeological sites across the Cilento and Sorrento Area.
