The Amalfi Coast is one of Europe’s most popular stretches of coastline known for not only its natural beauty but also for its world-renowned luxury hotels. We knew it would be beautiful, but we were blown away by how incredibly photogenic it is! At every bend in the road, we couldn’t help but pull out our camera to capture stunning images of the Amalfi Coast. The gorgeous coastline is dotted with houses built along the precipitous cliffs overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. It’s so surreal it looks like a painting. The Amalfi Coast is the perfect destination for a dream vacation!

The Amalfi Coast is accessible by land using the winding Strada Statale 163 which goes through 13 towns including Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. Jet setters can also reach the Amalfi Coast by boat or ferries. The 13 towns of the Amalfi Coast are declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Best experienced during the Spring (May, June) and Fall (September, October) when the crowds are at their lowest, the Amalfi Coast will leave you wanting more of the Dolce Vita. While on the Amalfi Coast, make sure to indulge in delicious Italian food, Limoncello liqueur, and of course gelato!

Here are 10 images of the Amalfi Coast that will inspire you to visit!

Stop and smell the roses at Hotel Santa Caterina in Amalfi

We stayed at the lovely Hotel Santa Caterina in Amalfi and were in awe of the beautiful gardens on the sea. We felt like we had wandered into Eden amongst all the gorgeous flowers, lemon trees, and flowering shrubs while gazing out at the sparkling Mediterranean. It’s no surprise that this 5-star luxury resort has hosted many celebrities including Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Mariah Carey, and Matt Damon.

Explore Positano’s Church of Santa Maria Assunta

No trip to the Amalfi Coast is complete without a visit to Positano. The beautiful Church of Santa Maria Assunta is Positano’s most recognizable landmark and is seen in many of the best images of the Amalfi Coast. It’s tiled majolic dome can be seen from almost anywhere in town and is a beautiful contrast with the blue Mediterranean. While in Positano, expect to get acquainted with its steep hills and many steps. Comfortable shoes are a must!

Flickering candlelight, oysters, some bubbly and epic views are the makings for a very romantic evening!

Get pampered at world-renowned hotel Le Sirenuse

If you want to stay in one of the most luxurious hotels on the Amalfi Coast, stay at Le Sirenuse in Positano. Although rooms can be very expensive in high season, we found a way to stay there for free. Find out how we stayed in a $1900/night suite for free. Splurge on a Sea View Suite for some of the best views of Positano. We were pampered by the exceptional staff at this family-operated boutique hotel in Positano.

Enjoy cocktails or coffee with these beautiful views

Take a break from your exploration along the Amalfi Coast and retrieve to the enchanting terrace at Hotel Santa Caterina. It has some of the best views in town and can be enjoyed by hotel guests or anyone looking to quench their thirst. This lovely terrace is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, afternoon cocktails, or a glass of champagne as the sun dips below the Mediterranean. We enjoyed breakfast on this beautiful terrace while staying at Hotel Santa Catarina. We loved it so much we came back for afternoon tea and sat back to enjoy the view for hours while chatting with other travelers.

The Amalfi Coast is dotted with cliffside pools on the Tyrrhenian Sea. This beauty can be found at Hotel Santa Catarina. Now you’re understanding why this luxe hotel is a hot spot for celebs!

Watch sunsets from medieval village Ravello

Make your way to Ravello to see the Villa Rufolo and its luxuriant gardens overlooking the sea. Stay for an evening of live jazz or classical music with the Ravello Concert Society in a historic atmosphere of medieval ruins, stellar views, and lush gardens. Watch the sunset from this spectacular viewpoint, arguably the best view of the Amalfi Coast thanks to its high hilltop location.

Marvel at the beauty of the Amalfi Coast at every bend in the road

Incredible views await those who travel to the Amalfi Coast. We loved driving along the coast, stopping wherever we found another breathtaking vista. We flew our drone to capture this photo of Amalfi, one of our favorite images of the Amalfi Coast. Every time we thought the view couldn’t get any better, we were surprised by yet another surreal panorama.

Take in Positano from the sea

Positano is stunning by land and even better by sea. Get a new perspective of the Amalfi Coast by chartering a boat.
