Map of Capri Vacation, Travel and Hotel Information

Despite its popularity, Capri somehow offers each of its guests an entirely intimate experience.

Capri is a magical place, the very incarnation of fantasy for those who want to experience the most charmed, deluxe, and leisurely of lifestyles. Since Ancient Roman times, Capri has offered this fabled existence to anyone willing and able to indulge in its delights. Indeed, Capri is a transcendental place, which can only be described with a bit of imagination. With this in mind, let us fabricate a movie scene of sorts, with legendary actor Marcello Mastrioianni strolling down a narrow cobblestone path flanked by lustrous lemon trees and exotic flowers. He is dressed in a pleasant fitting white suit, passively smoking a cigarette with his hair lightly blowing in the breeze. As he summits a gentle hill, he catches sight of the delicate ocean lapping the jagged coastline. After a moment of reflection, he moves on to the center of town where he nonchalantly greets several Sofia Lauren types sipping either a light sparkling wine or an espresso at an outdoor café. Ultimately he finishes his stroll by arriving at his modest yacht where his radiant companion has just uncorked a refreshing bottle of white wine, paired with a delicate insalata caprese. The day continues and ends in light and joyful chitchat while soaking up Capri's sun in fashionable recliners.
