Europe's most romantic hotel: Palazzo Avino

Europe’s most romantic hotel: Palazzo Avino – our favourite things

Palazzo Avino was judged to be the most romantic hotel in Europe. Nestled in Ravello, high above the Amalfi Coast in Italy it is the perfect place for a romantic honeymoon or a fairytale wedding. A picture can say a thousand words so here is a round up of a few of our favourites so you can judge for yourself:

1. The panoramic view across Ravello from the Palazzo’s hilltop position

2. A quiet sunny spot for two on the terraced lawns

3. The rooftop jacuzzi in the late afternoon sun

4. Cool, soft sofas on a hot afternoon at the waterside club house

5. Open air gym with incredible views and a gentle sea breeze

6. The swim-up bar

7. A shady corner for a poolside lunch

8. Swimming or kayaking in the warm Mediterranean off the club house’s private decking

9. Breakfast or dinner in Rossellini’s Restaurant

10. Homemade pizza fresh from the oven at the club house

11. Candlelit relaxation in the spa

12. The swan says it all about this hotel: beautiful, serene and totally relaxed
