"An adult-oriented, summer-camp-style resort that blends relaxed communal programming with resort comforts for an offbeat, social getaway." - Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty is a writer who specializes in covering destinations, resorts, and cruises for Travel + Leisure and other publications.

"It’s hard to argue with a classic, time-tested grand hotel. Case in point: Grand Hotel Quisisana, which opened in 1845. Almost from the get-go, the hotel, just steps from Capri town’s central Piazzetta, was a favorite of politicians, poets, royalty, and rock stars. The terrace is a destination on its own, a place where people gather to watch life unfold on the streets below. But inside, it’s even better, with sumptuous guest rooms and public spaces filled with shimmering chandeliers, gleaming marble floors, and gilt mirrors, against a soothing palette of various shades of white."
