Private apartment, panoramic balcony with a view of the sea in Sorrento

1 bedroom sea view beach apartment in Sorrento for up to 4 people

Al Mare Apartment is located in Sorrento just a short distance from the beach. It is 70 metres squared and can sleep up to 4 people. It features a private, panoramic balcony with a view of the sea and of the coastline. From Al Mare Apartment, you will enjoy a wonderful view over the bay of Naples, of Mount Vesuvius, of the Marina Grande in Sorrento and of the sea.

At Al Mare Apartment you are approximately 10 minutes walk from the centre of Sorrento, where you will find restaurants, shops and public transport. You are only 20 metres from the closest beach, Marina Grande. Al Mare Apartment is located on the third floor of a four-story building and is accessible from the building’s main entrance by walking up approximately 50 stairs.

As you enter the apartment, you arrive in the lounge. Here, there is a double bed. From the lounge, you can access the bathroom, kitchen and main bedroom. Usually, the apartment is pleasantly cool due to sea breeze but fans are available if you wish. The kitchen is equipped with an electric oven, four gas ring hobs, a microwave and a fridge freezer. There is a small, high window. In the kitchen, you will also find a dining table which can accommodate four guests.

The main bedroom has a double bed, a TV and boasts a small balcony with a table and chairs. Enjoy a drink ‘al fresco’ whilst admiring the stunning views of the bay of Naples, of Mount Vesuvius, of the Marina Grande in Sorrento and of the sea. The bathroom is equipped with a washbasin, a toilet, a bath and a shower, a bidet and a washing machine. The owner runs a fish restaurant by the seafront which is 100 metres (approximately 2 minutes' walk) from the apartment. Here you can get free internet access but do not need to purchase anything; the owner will give you the WIFI code. Internet access is not in the apartment.

You will not need a car to stay at Al Mare Apartment but if you do have one, you will be able to park it approximately 300 metres away, for a fee, in a parking space (where a space can be reserved). Alternatively, you can park it along the public roads but tickets would need to be purchased (the actual distance may vary depending on the availability of parking spaces).

Sorrento Seaside

We enjoyed our stay in the Marina Grande apartment from the first day of our vacation to the last. We loved having a spot to enjoy our morning coffees and evening wine by the sea. The apartment was a great place to enjoy time away from the busier parts of Sorrento. While we did walk to the city center many times (20 minutes) to shop, eat, tour, ferry- we could have stayed in Marina Grande for the week and been completely happy. We only cooked a hot meal in the apartment once. While there were sufficient tools to do so, it was small- we were on vacation so were just happy to have use of the fridge, stove (no oven), and sink. The small washer was great- we used a couple of times and it really made it easy to pack light! Light fabric dried easy on the drying rack. There is a fully stocked market below the apartment with a deli, several restaurants, a nearby cafe, gifts, boating information, beach chairs for rent, etc., The people of Marina Grande are amazing- friendly and hard working. We took a taxi from the train station to the apartment, and communication (use WhatsApp) was easy with the property manager who works in a nearby family restaurant (O'Puledrone). We ate there several times, the food was delicious and fresh. We enjoyed cold beverages after a day of walking/ touring there as well! We so look forward to returning.

Sorrento Marina Grande heaven

Great property in a perfect location for us - just a few steps to the beach, Ristorante O’Puledrone (apartment owner’s restaurant) only 100 meters away, little convenience store downstairs. Three flights of stairs to the apartment but the view from the perfect little balcony makes it worthwhile. Antonio’s hospitality in O’Puledrone was amazing, he couldn’t do enough for us. Have done many rental properties and this was a highlight.

Good harborside apartment!

The apartment was roomy and very clean. The glassware could be updated to include some wine glasses (!) but overall it had everything we needed. The location in the smaller harbor (not the big harbor that ferry boats and larger tours use) has some good restaurants and a little market. It's pretty quiet. No AC but has an occilating fan and good cross breezes so we were comfortable during our mid-September stay. Be prepared to walk up stairs as the apartment is on the third floor. We did a lot of walking up from the apartment into the main part of Sorrento but we felt safe there, even later at night. All in all a great stay!

Brilliant location

A brilliant location directly in front of the small beach of Marina Grande and surrounded by the many restaurants. We just wanted a place to stop, which we found and often sat outside on the balcony with the table in between (hint, use one of the books on the bookshelf to balance the table).

Lovely apartment

I stayed at the apartment with 3 of my friends and it was a great experience. Antonio and his family are extremely friendly and helpful, we visited their restaurant multiple times during our 2 week trip and enjoyed each meal. The apartment is clean and represented well. We stayed there during a heat wave in the area and we were provided with fans. I would highly recommend staying here as it is in a calmer area of town and only takes about 10/15 min walk to the main square. I would keep in mind that there is no wifi at the apartment and only at the restaurant which is about 200m away from the apartment. This is a great place to stay with family/friends and would urge anyone going to sorrento to stay here!!

Absolutely Amazing - You Need to Stay Here

We stayed at a few places on our honeymoon and no place made us feel more taken care of than this one. Antonio and Alfonso were there for our every need. I am not being hyperbolic at all when I say that the moment sincr meeting Antonio at O'Puledrones our honeymoon got significantly better (and it was pretty great to start with). If you are considering staying here let me convince you it's a great idea. Not to mention the amazing view from the room, the great location on the docks and a warm, welcoming host. Thank you, Antonio!! We hope to see you again soon

Lovely Marina Grande apartment

The location is superb, you can’t get any closer to the Marina Grande waterfront than this! The accommodations were simple and clean, no frills but very comfortable. One should be aware that the apartment is up three flights of stairs which wasn’t a problem for us but might be if you have limitations. Also, be aware that there is no Wi-Fi :) Antonio and his family were wonderful and we had a fantastic time!

Room With a Great View

This apartment is away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Sorrento. It is located in Marina Grande, a small secluded bay. Many restaurants were available on the beach with the freshest seafood imaginable. The apartment was great. The best part for us was being able to keep the patio door open at night to enjoy the breeze and hear the surf of the ocean. Check in was easy. Alfonso was in regular contact with us. Antonio his manager was very welcoming and answered all our questions. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location in Marina Grande

Comfortable apartment right on the water in Marina Grande. Beautiful view of Mt Vesuvius. Fun, energy filled area day and night. Lots of restaurants and a store just steps from the apartment. The doors open to the balcony and you can move the table and chairs. We enjoyed many drinks and charcuterie boards while watching the active beach below and sunsets from our balcony. The apartment does not have A/C but we were fine with the sea breeze and a fan. Surprisingly there weren’t any mosquitoes and we slept with the doors open and listened to the waves. There are 59 steps up the the apartment (my daughter counted) but we found it doable for the week we were there. Property manager Antonio was very helpful.

Holiday 2019

This property has all mod cons, It is in a beautiful location, with stunning views , beautiful restaurants . We arrived at Antonio's restaurant to get the keys and it was seamless. We paid our deposit and Antonio's uncle escorted us to the apartment and helped us with our luggage as we had quite a few steps to climb.. The apartment is located practically on the beach and beside quite a few restaurants. It has all mod cons and was spotlessly clean. I could not fault it in any way and would have no hesitation in recommending it for a holiday. We will definitely be back here again. Mile Grazie,

Just OK

The apartment was what I expected. Yes it was "Luminous" because the french doors open to the sea view. It's on the 3rd floor - no elevator. The view was spectacular! Antonio (the owner) was just great. His restaurant was marvelous. He needs to drop Naples Villas because of extremely high booking fees.

The apartment is right on the beach, and fairly spacious for a family of 4. Lacks in some essentials, like some basic kitchen items, WiFi, towels, ... In general it was a great place and Antonio took good care of us.

Bay view stay in Sorrento

The apartment was perfect for our needs. It had everything we needed and it was a joy to get up every morning to open the balcony doors to the fabulous view of the bay and Mt. Vesuvius. The Grand Marina has everything one might need for an extended stay within 200 feet of the apartment. For shopping or more exotic fare, downtown is a short walk up the hill. We would stay at this property again in a heartbeat!

Quaint Marina Grande

The apartment in Marina Grande was, clean, convenient, you'll feel like one of the locals, and Mamma Mia, does it have a breathtaking view. Marina Grande is a wonderful place to stay, although there are many restaurants in the area, it is a rather quiet location. So many wonderful views out the window, Mt. Vesuvius, small fishing boats, many bright colors & a stone path up to the main street in Sorrento. It may seem a little out of the way, but it is just minutes from everything that is going on in Sorrento. Antonio, who oversees the rental, owns a restaurant, just steps away from the apartment. He is very accommodating and charming. His restaurant is a fisherman's cooperative and the fish is so fresh and his dishes wonderful. Try the white fish with tomato - best I've ever had. The day of departure I felt saddened that I had to leave. You'll enjoy Marina Grande, the sidewalk cafe's, the many wonderful restaurants, from casual to a little more uptown, you can find just what you are looking for. Enjoy!

We had truly wonderful time in Sorrento

We met the local manager at his family's restaurant to sort everything out on arrival. He speaks fantastic English and made the whole family feel welcome. We were shown to the apartment which was just a 2 minute walk from the restaurant. It is located in an apartment bloke on the sea front. The locals always said hello and asked after the kids for the whole week. The apartment was spacious and clean. I would describe it as classic Italian. No frills but functional. Sometimes in Italy I have found the bathrooms to be not as good as the rest of the property. That is not the case here. It is more than acceptable. The Bed in the master bedroom was comfortable and our kids never complained about the sofa bed once. Without doubt the best thing about the apartment is the views from the balcony. You get a wonderful mixture of noise from the sea and atmosphere from the restaurants below. If we wanted to go to sleep we simply shut the door and it was quiet. It really is a great apartment. The local manager and his family made us feel very welcome all week. I cannot speak highly enough of them

Picturesque quaint fishing marina beach apartment

The property was clean and well maintained with a magnificent sea breeze and beach front view for experiencing first hand the local culture. The property owner provided great customer service during our stay, helping make us feel very welcome answering many questions and making good recommendations for nearby activities and attractions. We loved our evening visits to their quaint family owned and operated restaurant. The fresh catch of the day was always delicious and we appreciated the great company as well as the meal discounts! Thank you Antonio and family for going the extra mile to make our visit memorable and special. We highly recommend your apartment when sharing with friends and family our wonderful vacation experience in Sorrento. We look forward to coming again and taking your brother up on the offered fishing excursion.

Property is in a quiet building, very clean easily accessible to the beach (right in front of apartment) and restaurants featuring fresh seafood dishes. Our check in was seamless, Antonio was a pleasure to deal with, took care of everything from arranging taxis and excursions. Check our his restaurant O'puledrone which is excellent. We are definitely coming back.

Antonio was a pleasure to deal with, very accommodating and you should also check out his nearby restaurant O'Puledrone which is very close by. Overall you cannot beat the access to local restaurants with abundant fresh seafood choices, central Sorrento is only a 10 min walk away and the beach is right in front of the apartment (your choice of free public beaches or private ones which require a small fee).
