Reginaldo Boutique Rooms Sorrento

Reginaldo Boutique Rooms is at via Padre Reginaldo Giuliani 56, in the Parsano district of Sorrento, the part of the centre that drops towards Marina Piccola and the harbour, in the province of Naples. It is a city-centre position and not a resort one: you step out of the gate and you are already in a street of shops and kiosks, with the Marameo beach reachable in two minutes on foot and Piazza Tasso a short distance away. Napoli Capodichino airport is about 49 kilometres away. The building is the classic white Sorrento house, recognisable by its blue iron entrance, the pots and the stairs faced in majolica.

A note on the sources

This page should be read knowing where the information comes from. The property publishes no official website of its own: the information comes from the page the management keeps on the booking portal, and the photographs are those of its gallery on the same portal. The house is run by a private host and the licence number stated is IT063080B49A5DO3BQ.

How it is made up

There are six rooms, all doubles, divided into two categories. The Standard Double Room has a private bathroom with shower, bidet and hairdryer, air conditioning, heating, a wardrobe, a flat-screen television and a courtesy set. The Deluxe Room is larger and adds the minibar. The whole property is non-smoking. The services included are free wifi in all areas, a safe, a fridge, a kettle for tea and coffee, daily cleaning, a concierge service, a tour desk and laundry. At extra cost there are the transfer to and from the airport and access to a private beach area, as well as canoeing, snorkelling, walking excursions and cookery courses away from the property. Check-in is from 14.00, check-out by 11.00.

Wellness area and pools

There are none, and it is as well to say so before booking. In the list of services published by the management there is neither a spa nor a sauna nor a Turkish bath nor a pool, and the house is a guest house of six rooms within the built fabric of the centre, with no equipped common spaces beyond the entrance and the stairs. Anyone looking for wellness here finds the sea: the Marameo beach is two minutes away and there is the possibility of using a private beach area by paying separately.

The access rules

The booking portal classifies the house as adults only and writes in so many words that children are not allowed. As there is no official website for the property, there is no second source that might specify the threshold, and the portal publishes no minimum age in figures: this page therefore records the blanket ban on access for under-age guests and, together with it, the fact that nobody states from what age a guest is considered an adult. Anyone travelling with a sixteen or seventeen year old finds no number written down and does well to ask the management for confirmation in writing before booking. The management also states that the property does not take stag or hen parties and similar celebrations. On pets it does not express itself, neither to allow them nor to exclude them.

Who it suits

It suits a couple who want to sleep inside Sorrento and move about on foot, with a swim in the morning at the beach below the house and the evening in the centre without looking for parking, and anyone who uses Sorrento as a base for Capri, Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast. It suits less anyone looking for absolute quiet, because the street is central and busy, and anyone expecting a pool, a spa or hotel services: here there are six rooms and nothing more, and breakfast too is not among the stated services.
