Hotel Punta Tragara

Fabulous stay at the top... Wrap-around outdoor terrace/patio was wonderful. A splurge, and well worth the 3 day stay... We took the advice on Fodors travel blog forum, and booked the best room where the Queen & Kennedys had stayed over the years

I did not sleep a single night at this hotel. There are wild parties directly next door non stop (violating local laws) which the hotel does NOTHING to stop despite the parties continuing at illegal hours. The staff were incompetent, incredibly rude, and refused to move my room. I left two days early because I was so desperate for sleep.

The hotel is stunning. While you could take the perspective that the windy path to your room is not efficient, you'd miss the beauty in what has been built in such a unique place. Our room was amazing, much because of the view, but everything else complemented it well. Bed was heavenly, bathroom luxury, retro speaker with great sound, linens were great, and our balcony was peaceful (although the bees and seagulls had more of our breakfast we had on the terrace than we did!). Breakfast was great and the staff were even better. Pools are small but refreshing. Flow of restaurant into pool into terrace deck was really nice. Above all, we had exceptional service. We want to specifically call out Irene and Greta at the front desk who were warm and ever so helpful - made us feel like the most important people there. Thank you for a great stay. Butler service for our bags from the port was super helpful. If I have to say one thing negative, it's that it felt cheap to bag transfer as a pay service given the very significant room rates. But it was done very professionally and would have made the trek impossible without it.

This is truly a magical hotel. The lobby and building itself are remarkable. The room we had which was a junior suite, was huge and had the largest terrace/ deck I have ever had at a hotel with beautiful sea views and mountain vista. The service was excellent from top to bottom. The pool area is beautiful, and the breakfast is hard to beat, for the service, selection and certainly the view. If you call for room service, it comes almost immediately. Drinks and food are expensive but on par with what you would expect at a 5 Star resort, which this is. The Spa and Gym are underwhelming, but serviceable. The staff are all happy to help in any and every way imaginable. The only thing I would note, and to us it was a good thing, Punta Tragara is big walk to everything. It is at least a 10 minute walk to the main part of the town. We enjoyed the walk, it is gorgeous and interesting as well as scenic. It also takes away part of the downside of Capri which are the crowds. We found the isolation to be a HUGE positive, but if walking is an issue this may not be the place for you. There were just so many small and wonderful touches, and I can't wait to return! Grazie!

Very nice hotel and has lots of accommodations, as it should be for the price ($1,300 plus a night). The staff was always ready to help (10+) during our four-night stay—a complimentary morning breakfast to order or buffet with a view of the bay. I recommend getting up for that.

I am pretty picky when it comes to luxury hotels ... or hotels, in general. And I can honestly say that this was one of my top 10 hotel experiences ever ... and there have been a lot. Mr. Federico, the GM and his staff were fantastic hosts and made us feel like royalty during our 48 hour stay. Most of the staff have worked at the hotel for a long time, so they are knowledgeable about not only the hotel, but Capri itself. We were assigned a room with a beautiful, completely private patio overlooking the pool, outdoor bar and ocean/mountain in the background. It was stunning ... like something out of a movie. We thought this was the best view in the property because you can see the town and the ocean/mountain in the distance. The other side has unobstructed views of the blue sea and the two big rocks, so it may be more preferred for some. These rooms will also be quieter and a bit more private, if you are sensitive to bar/pool music and noise, which you get on the pool side, however we enjoyed our view better and being able to walk directly down stairs to the pools was nice. The shower was luxurious marble and had a wonderful rain shower and large sink. Plenty of storage space and high quality towels. Slippers and bathrobes are provided and it might have been the most comfortable robe I've ever worn. The bed was a bit firm for my liking but my gf liked it as she prefers a firmer mattress. Feather pillows were soft and there was no noise from other rooms. The room design itself might be called a bit sterile ... but in a classy/modern way. It felt like a resort in Arizona to me, but fans of minimalist style will embrace it as clean and crisp design. If you want bright and vibrant colors, you won't find them ... its more of a neutral/classy vibe. The function was great ... a big closet where you can store your bags and clothes, out of the way of your room living space and a small seating area. The patio was the star of the room and where we spent the most time. It's a short walk to downtown. You will take an absolutely beautiful street lined with flowers, resorts and designer stores. Plenty of ability to explore the area too. We walked to Villa Jova (Roman ruins) one day, only to find it closed. However, there is an outdoor bar on the way back called Bar Jova. It's a bit of a hike from the hotel & downtown area but through cool residential streets with beautiful estates. The bar itself has stunning ocean panderamic views and cheap drinks. On the way back is a local grocery store called Salumeria Barbone which makes great sandwiches and has local cheese. While there are many gelato shops in town, the best is Buonocore. Long lines later in the day ... they also have wonderful pastries, etc. We ate most of our meals at the hotel. The only thing we did not enjoy at the hotel was the restaurant Monzu. It has a Michelin star but out of the 5 courses included in our menu, we did not enjoy even one and the meal took nearly 3 hours. (Nor did other guests
