Welcome to Capri, a gift from the gods

Experience a Luxury Stay on the Capri Island

Traveling to Capri is almost like escaping time itself, a place to immerse yourself in a magical mythical world. Poised between the blue of the sea and the sky, between cliffs of dazzling white and lush Mediterranean green, Capri is a gift of the gods: a soulful spot where aristocrats and artists, poets and politicians, entrepreneurs and intellectuals have come for centuries to find – or lose – themselves in ethereal beauty.

What to See and Visit in Capri: Between Myth and Reality

The glamour of the Piazzetta meets breathtaking natural beauty. Mysterious sea caves, magnificent villas and lush gardens make Capri an island unlike any other. There are countless ways to fall in love with it, but one of the most unforgettable experiences begins at the Blue Grotto. Here, sunlight filters through the crystal-clear water, filling the cave with an almost otherworldly blue glow. Accessible only by small rowing boats that can pass through its narrow entrance, visiting the Blue Grotto feels like stepping through a gateway into another world.

Or admire the Faraglioni, the iconic symbol of Capri. Rising dramatically from the sea, these three towering rock formations – the tallest reaching 109 metres – are steeped in legend. According to Homer, they were the rocks hurled by the Cyclops Polyphemus at Odysseus, while Virgil described them as the home of the mythical Sirens. Today, they stand proudly just off the coast, watching over the island’s crystal-clear waters.

Punta Tragara offers another unforgettable experience. The scenic walk leading to the village is filled with the colours and fragrances of Mediterranean gardens, concealing elegant villas that are often masterpieces of architecture. In Capri, history, nature and mythology accompany every step. At Villa Jovis, built by Emperor Tiberius in honour of Jupiter, visitors can explore the remains of one of the largest Roman imperial residences while enjoying breathtaking views over the Mediterranean Sea.

This deep connection between nature and the human spirit continues in Anacapri. Near the Punta Carena Lighthouse, the Philosophical Park, created by Swedish philanthropist Gunnar Adler-Karlsson, invites quiet reflection. Elsewhere, the flower-filled terraces of the Gardens of Augustus overlook the winding Via Krupp, Marina Piccola Bay and the spectacular Faraglioni. Before ending the day with an aperitif in Capri’s famous Piazzetta, take time to discover other remarkable landmarks such as the White Grotto and the Natural Arch.
