Great stay with a very welcoming host (Gianfranco). He personally came down to the ferry docks to help guide us to the hotel as well as he helped carry my luggage. The location is very beautiful, with a terrasse that overlooks Amalfi - great to take in the sights in the morning with some dolci from Pansa! Gianfranco helped us with the reservation for a restaurant as well. It was great to learn about the host's grandfather as well, who was a sculptor in Amalfi, whose sculptures you can see around town and in Atrani as well. Note that you should be reasonably fit to go up the stairs leading to Casa Mao, as it is in one of the higher locations in Amalfi.

Casa Mao is a little gem tucked into the rabbit warren of side streets in Amalfi. Gianfranco, the charming owner/manager, met us at the ferry terminal and guided us to the location, pointing out landmarks along the way so we could find our way back by ourselves. Very helpful!! Our room was amazing, a two level suite with loft bedroom and a huge terrace overlooking Amalfi and the ocean. Perfect spot for an aperativo while the church bells rang! Very quiet at night and gorgeous sunrises from the terrace. A wonderful stay, highly recommend it!

There are 150-plus steep stone steps one has to climb with lugguage to reach the B and B. Realizing this is true for many of the small hotels in the area, it was strenuous. Giancarlo is a generous and warm host. The property was designed with care and love, and respect for his family history.

Gianfranco was an amazing host, and the views from the property were out of this world. Although there are a lot of stairs you have to take to get to the property. It was stated breakfast was included but it was just a coffee and some cakes. The view from the terrace made up for it.

Lovely property hidden away but close to everything. Short walk from bus stop or ferry. The video sent on how to get to Casa Mao was extremely helpful as sometime it is hard to find any location in Amalfi, especially if you have never been here before. Our host Gianfranco was extremely helpful and informative. Our room was clean and comfortable. Sitting on the terrace in the evening with a breathtaking view overlooking the city was wonderful way to end the day and breakfast there was a beautiful way to start it. Highly recommend a stay here.

Love our time here at Casa Mao. Spacious & very clean room in the perfect location in Amalfi. The view from the Terrace is one of the most beautiful views we have ever seen, especially at sunset. Loved the history of the place & the decor/meaning behind it all. Keep in mind, it is A LOT of steps to get to this property. So pack light and be prepared. Totally worth it though!

Gianfranco, the owner/caretaker of the property was highly responsive and accommodating with good local recommendations and personal connections around town to help get us into beach clubs/restaurants that online said were at capacity. He met us at the ferry and walked us to the location, which is a little tricky to find and up many stairs. The view from the roof was very pretty. The room was clean, comfortable and larger than most.

Our room at Casa Mao was beautiful and extremely clean! Great views just outside of the building and terrace that we unfortunately didn’t check out. The only con is the amount of stairs to get to the building, but after walking them you deserve the pizza you’ll be eating!

Being as objective as possible, I would rate our experience a 3.5 out 5; The owner/manager does his best to service our needs but overall the location of the property and his desire to save on expenses made our short stay less enjoyable. He welcomes his guests at the port but for a reason...There is absolutely no way you would find your room if he was not there to guide you. The ascent to his guesthouse is by far not for the weak of heart. Especially when carrying your bags. It is 150 steps to climb and when you arrive through a myriad of passages you are completely drenched in sweat (especially in hot weather) by the time you get to your room. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the owner tires to make the most to make your stay as enjoyable. However, there was one big problem with his setup...the air conditioning was centrally controlled and those 2 nights we stayed, we could barely feel the cold air in our apartment. I understand the need to control expenses but you could sense his desire to make sure we did not consume unnecessary energy. Open a window, and the energy shuts off to the AC. The recent heat wave in Italy made our nights not too pleasant in Amalfi. The big question is whether we would return and the answer is no. Unfortunately its location and amenities are not recommended for an older couple or traveler. But, if you are a younger traveler with limited budget, it may be considered.

Casa Mao staff and manager was very helpful. He met us at the port to guide to his hotel. Also, very well managed facilities with nice rooftop. You should be aware of 150steps to get to the Casa Mao but its pretty normal for Amalfi hotels. I highly recommend Casa Mao in Amalfi.

Gianfranco was incredible and kind. The house is outstanding!! There aren’t enough words to express how awesome our stay was! Now. Regarding the stairs. If you have a problem with the 150ish steps to get to the property, let’s be honest, you’re gonna have a hard time in Italy. It’s not that intense. Suck it up, take a break, admire the beauty of the town and keep trekking!!
