Hotel Mary is the place to be. It really is. With a dreamy infinity pool which stretches out towards the gulf of Naples, flawless service and its own sea club; you leave feeling as if some a list celebrity. ||The Hotel Mary sea club is perfect for relaxing on the pontoon, or chilling out in the sea and letting the sea wash away your worries, and seduce you to sleep. Despite the somewhat challenging walk down the cliff to reach the club, everything becomes worthwhile when you are greeted by the smiling faces of the lifeguards and welcomed to a longing sun lounger. Of course, the hotel does provide a shuttle taxi service for 2 Euros per person for each journey, and personally this was highly useful, as it is essential after a long day at the club. Though it did seem a tad expensive, and I thought that the hotel should offer this included in the price of the stay. ||Always personable, friendly and consistently charming, the staff at Hotel Mary deliver on every level. At Breakfast, in particular, the Maitre d’ is great. Huge shoutout to this man who greets guests with a happy barrage of ‘gratzie Mille’ and boundless energy. The breakfast options were also limitless, exceeding my expectations enormously. Think a selection of cheeses, mozarella, buck’s fizz, yogurts, chocolate croissants and so much more. Everything anyone could need. ||Although we really enjoyed the breakfast on offer, we did not opt for evening meals every day at the hotel and instead found numerous caverns of well-sourced produce in the vibrant town of Vico Equense. All bars and restaurants are within 10/15 minute walking distance which proves for electric evenings in juxtaposition with relaxed, chilled out days at the Hotel Mary Beach club or beside the infinity pool Perhaps the best of these evenings we enjoyed at ‘Il barrio Osteria’. Set in a mediterranean courtyard, the atmosphere takes your back to the roman ‘peristylium’ or courtyard garden, surrounded by fruit trees, it was the perfect place to get a taste of authentic local cuisine and taste some divine flavours at the same time. And let’s not also forget the simply sublime food provided at Hotel Mary. Who knew that one flight of stairs from your hotel room could deliver such delicious flavours. The pasta melted in your mouth. The cocktail, a class above the rest. The dessert tangy and fruity. This hotel delivers on every level. ||Hotel Mary: a place filled with luxury. This hotel balances two worlds perfectly. While Hotel Mary is centred on relaxation, and the spa experiences, the nearby train station allows you to hop along the coast to the numerous attractions. It provides the best of both worlds; I truly believe that whoever enters those ‘Hotel Mary’ doors will experience the same luxury, the same splendour which I have been graced with for 7 days. In the words of the famous maitre d' framing my dessert 'a symphony'. I think the same can be said for the rest of the hotel. Hotel Mary is a symphony of flavours, of vibrancy, of stunning views and a symphony, at that, coated with a layer of class.
