The owner Beacho is an amazing accommodating and kind man, the property is well kept and situated with excellent views of Praiano amalfi. This hotel is good value. Beacho organized our transportation options to excursions and helped us managed luggage transportation. We felt loved and being family cared at this place

The only road from Praiano was closed and we could not get to the hotel. They should have notified us in advance that this was a daily problem and that we should cancel the reservation. The sign said that the road would be closed everyday and the policeman there told us it was closed every day. Why did not la Vela cancel before we got there if they knew it would be closed? It did not seem to be something they did not know!

We had multiple issues with this property, but if you like old-italian rustic charm, this will be fine. Check in was difficult because of communication barriers, the room was less than desirable and was dormitory style with uncomfortable beds. We could not obtain a hair dryer and iron until the second day when it was too late as we were having family pictures done that first night. We expected a cooked to order breakfast as it stated in the listing and the owner acquiesced after telling me that it was a mistake in the listing. But he made one set of eggs and bacon for one person in our part of four. Weird, but ok. I wasn't going to press as he was already irritated. Then the next (last) day, he was exasperated trying to explain to me that it was a mistake. By the time he got done with his explanation, we were out of time to wait for breakfast so I told him not to worry about it. He accused me of not respecting him. After that tantrum, I will say I lost respect for him, but I was respecting him. The other problem we had was with transportation -- no fault of the owners. The Italian buses were full. 6 times in a row. We ended up walking down the hill to Amalfi and we ended up getting picked up by another bus --costing us more money as well. It was annoying and coupled with the experience with the owner, the "rustic" dormitory style room -- there is no chance I would ever stay in Furore again let alone this particular location.

Overall it was good. Biagio is an amazing host, very helpful with everything. Our room has a partial sea view. There was nice breakfast arranged with a view of the sea. The only down part is that the room needs a fan or something. Or if you open the balcony room at night you get attacked by mosquitoes at night. But I’m sure this could be sorted. Transportation can be very difficult, the hourly bus through the area could not stop as it can be full but then there is an estate minibus coming and picks up the rest of the people. If you rent a car, you have to be a good driver to drive through the mountains.

Our stay was very nice and joyful as we rented a scooter and was able to park in-front of la vela. Close to the beginning of the “path of gods” which is a highly recommended hike. Breakfast was good enough and our host made a top-notch cappuccino for us. Really good view from the breakfast and in walking distance of a small market. Overall a great place in the to be if you want to venture to Amalfi or Positano.

The view and the cleanliness great but the fact that we were allowed to leave our backpacks all day was fantastic. They were able to assist us to get a room in another facility since they were fully booked for the next two days and even gave us a ride to get there. Unbelievable hospitality and assistance. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to family and friends. Thank you so much for the fantastic above and Beyond service.

Lots of potential
The most important thing to share is that the manager is incredibly generous with his time, always making sure we had everything we wanted for breakfast and even driving us to a local restaurant a couple of times so that we didn’t have to climb the steep hill - he’s a really great guy. His elderly father was also very nice and talkative, albeit our best medium of communication was very broken French! The views over the coast are wonderful, the breakfast area looks like it used to be a restaurant at one time but the kitchen is in a state of disrepair now. The bedrooms could do with updating (and some air conditioning!) but they’re comfy enough and everything was clean. It’s a good budget alternative to staying right on the coast: there’s a bus stop right outside (15 mins to Amalfi) and a decent convenience store only 50m away. Top tip: if coming from Positano/Sorrento, DON’T try to walk up to San Michele from the bus stop at Fiordo di Furore - it may say 20 mins walk on maps but there are thousands of steps so steep you’ll be stopping constantly and sweating buckets; we had baggage too which was soul destroying but even those walking by us with nothing to carry were really stopping all the time. Stay on the bus till Amalfi then catch the bus back out towards Bomerano.

The staff was very kind and helpful, the view from the place is amazing, especially from where the breakfast is served. Free parking as promised, breakfast didn't include eggs ham or cheese. We had the shared bathroom and it was very clean and comfortable. Overall we liked the place a lot, nothing too fancy but pretty cheap for the area.

Estadia no La Vela, Costa Amalfitana
Estivemos 7 noites no La Vela. Fica num local muito sossegado e é ótimo para descansar. É num local central em relação às vilas turisticas. Tem uma vista espectacular sobre o mediterrâneo. Não esperem as mordomias de um hotel caro pois este é o que o conceito dita: cama e pequeno almoço. O Vincenzo, um senhor já com alguma idade, muito simpático, contador de histórias e ótimo conversador (pena que só fala o italiano), foi quem nos recebeu á chegada. Depois temos o Biagio, filho do Vincenzo, sempre prestável e simpático. Em termos de limpeza nada a apontar. Sempre que voltavamos das nossas voltas o quarto estava impecável. Casa de banho limpa, cama feita e tudo limpinho. Tem um mini frigorífico que serve para o dia a dia e eles próprios incentivam a que compremos o comer para levar para o quarto. Tem serviço de correios perto do alojamento, supermercado e um café/bar que além de se poder comprar bebidas para consumo lá, funciona como uma pequena mercearia onde se pode comprar pequenos produtos incluindo sandes se viermos tarde e com fome. Tem a paragem dos autocarros mesmo junto ao alojamento. No geral, a qualidade/preço, localização, a distância às vilas mais turísticas, faz com que seja uma boa opção. Um único ponto a melhorar: falta um estendal na varanda para secar roupa. Voltarei um dia sem nenhum problema.
