Bed & Breakfast L'Incanto - Holidays at Furore

Between heaven and earth

The small comune of Furore is famous above all for its impressive fjord which, between Praiano and Conca dei Marini, cuts deeply into the steep coast. A small sandy beach and colorful, small fishermen’s houses clinging to the steep cliffs make for the unique atmosphere which fascinates visitors and had already fascinated famous Roberto Rossellini for his film "Amore".

The comune of Furore lies above the "Fiordo", apart from the hustle and bustle of the coastal towns. That is where, in marvelous panoramic location, you find family Castellano’s small Bed & Breakfast L’Incanto with 4 guest rooms and affectionate, family-like atmosphere.

Friendly room with sea view

For your stay at B&B L'Incanto we have chosen the room by the beautiful name of Capri, which is located at the upper end of the terraced premises. It has a private access and is reached only via a stepped path.

From the room's two furnished sea view terraces you spot the so-called Faraglioni di Capri in the distance, rock formations rising steeply from the sea off the island. 

Capri is spaciously designed, bright and friendly with large windows facing the smaller terrace. Furnishing includes double bed, two wardrobes, dresser, comfy chair, small refrigerator, TV and air conditioning. The bathroom is equipped with shower cabin/WC/bidet and hair dryer.

Parking is available at the restaurant or along the road near the B&B.

Culinary delights at the family-run restaurant

Restaurant L’Incanto, also run by the three Castellano brothers, is located below the B&B. Enjoy your breakfast on the restaurant’s sea view terrace or, if it is more to your liking, have it served in your room (surcharge) and start into the day at your own pace on one of your terraces.

Breakfast is prepared by chef de cuisine Giuseppe. It is a typically Italian-style breakfast with, above all, home-made cakes, brioches and croissants, fruit, yoghurt, jam and sweet spread. Cheese, sausages and eggs are prepared upon request (surcharge € 5).

You can add half board to your booking at B&B L'Incanto. Breakfast and dinner, house wine included, are served at the restaurant.

Further information

Restaurant L’Incanto offers very good fish dishes and pizza from the pizza oven. More restaurants are found ca. 650 m, grocery stores and bars ca. 1.2 km off.

In Frazione Bomerano (comune of Agerola), not far from the B&B, you can start on hiking tours along the best-known and most popular hiking trail of the Amalfi Coast – Sentiero degli Dei (Path of Gods). 'Accompanied' by an extraordinary coastal panorama, you might follow the trail as far as Positano and then take the bus back to Furore.

Should you want to 'take a day off' from culture and nature and slip in a day at the nearest beach, you can do so at Conca dei Marini (Capo di Conca, ca. 9 km). Stopping by the small beaches at Fiordo di Furore (ca. 12 km) and at Praiano (Marina di Praia, ca. 14 km) is also worthwhile.

By the way, the bridge spanning the fjord at a height of 30 m is where, every summer, the international MarMeeting High Diving Championship takes place. The participants’ audacious dives into the azure depths of the sea deserve to be seen, be it from the coastal road or from the beach below. 

Nearest train stations: Castellamare di Stabia (ca. 20 km) and Sorrento (ca. 40 km)
Nearest harbors: Amalfi (ca. 13 km) and Positano (ca. 25 km)
