Top 42 things to do and attractions in Castellammare di Stabia

Rickety old cable car took us up to top of mount faito standing only - cable car is accessible at end of train station platform to be fair if the weather had been clear the views would have been amazing there is 2 small restaurants and toilets at top bus down was something else very narrow roads very fast driving

Get away from the hot weather of the city - we had 22 degrees and there was 32 in the city. Nice walk in the woods in the shade, beautiful views on the mount Vesuvio and the city.

Great place to visit with staying in Castellammare di Stabia. Funicular goes up every 20 min., round trip costs 8 eur. per person. View point is 10-15 min. walk, also there's few bars if you want to grab a drink or snacks.

Beautiful hiking trail with certain level of difficulty but manageable in general. Entrance to the trail is convenient to access via a cable car ride from Castemarre di stabia train station.

Mount Faito is a mountain that is part of the mountain chain of the Lattari mountains: 1,131 meters high, has access from both Castellammare di Stabia and Vico Equense and can also be reached by the cable car of the same name, managed by the Autonomous Authority Volturno, from the station of Castellammare di Stabia.

One of my favorite days during my two week Italy trip was the day spent taking the cable car, talking to Nicola (the owner of the bar connected to the Cable Car area) about where to hike and eating his delicious food and drinks, hiking along the road there, reaching the church and great view, hiking back through the forest, ending with a few more snacks and drinks and taking the cable car back to town.

Amazing path, great views !

The Stabian Baths are the oldest thermal complex in Pompeii, dating back to the 2nd century BC – basically the city’s first spa and social hub. Here, everyone from slaves to senators could enjoy hot and cold baths, saunas, and gossip. The preserved underfloor heating (hypocaust system) shows they took comfort seriously – or at least seriously sweaty. Much like today, it wasn’t just about hygiene – it was about flexing in the caldarium before flexing on Instagram.

A part of the ruins that was a really well kept. A bath house that had separated rooms dedicated for each gender, male and female. It is curious to see that they had implemented a lot of decor and and artworks for the place.

Part of Pompeii ruins. You need en entire day to visit every part of it. We just had a quick group tour in 2 hours.

another bath worth to visit in pompeii that some place a bit dark however if sunny day that the light is so pretty. and having different design in different room. impressive

Public baths well conserved and one of the must sees in pompeii

Super

The town's oldest baths complex opens onto Via dell'Abbondanza at the corner of Via Stabiana not far from the Forum and probably dates from the 2nd century B.C..The establishment covers a total surface area of over 3,500 square metres and is divided into two adjacent sections respectively reserved for men and women and includes a courtyard which was used as a gymnasium.Three sides of the courtyard have colonnades with stuccoed tuff-stone pillars, while the fourth side borders onto a large swimming-pool one and a half metres deep. Separated from the gymnasium by a low wall, the latter could be reached from two side-rooms where the bathers would probably get changed for the bathing rite. After the earthquake of 62 A.D. the swimming-pool area was embellished with elegant coloured stucco decorations which enclose a number of panels depicting mythological figures and athletes.Only a few bathing chambers were annexed to the gymnasium to the north. The other rooms were later turned into a large lavatory situated at the rear of the apartment belonging to the manager of the baths. The bathing establishment proper occupies the longer side of the Peristyle. A door in the right-hand corner of the colonnade leads to the men's section. The first room on the left is a chamber for cold baths (Frigidarium), which is round in shape with four corner niches and a pool in the centre. The water used to feed the pool flowed from another niche in the north-facing wall. The fact that this room came before the one where the bathers undressed may suggest that it was actually used as a laconicum, i.e. a steam room in which the air was heated by means of bronze braziers. From the entrance hall the bather entered the changing room (Apodyterium), which is plastered in white except for a red band running all round the lower half of the walls; the vault has stucco decorations in various colours. The next room is the Tepidarium, in which warm baths were taken. It was heated by hot air which circulated under the floor (between small terra-cotta pillars called Suspensurae) and - as can be seen in the areas where work was in progress at the time of the eruption - through cavities in the walls themselves.The room that follows is the Calidarium where the tub on the right-hand side was used for hot baths. Above the bath we can see three niches which contained statues while the marble basin situated along the apsidal wall contained cold water which the bathers used to cool off while in that intensely heated room. The fires for heating both the water and the air needed for the two sections of the bathing complex were situated behind the Calidarium wall. Walking along the gymnasium colonnade, we reach the entrance door to the women's section. Here the rooms follow one another in the same sequence as in the men's section, but as there is no Frigidarium, the bathers would pass directly from the changing room into the Tepidarium and from there to the Calidarium which contained a number of bronze tubs for individual baths.

Burried by approximately three meters of ash following the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, this Roman Villa is currently being renovated and expanded. The stucco walls remain mostly intake in several areas.

Villa San Marco in Stabiae is one of those places that truly takes you back in time. The ruins are impressive – with large courtyards, a swimming pool, mosaics, and frescoes that still amaze with their colors and details. It’s incredible to walk through the spaces where the daily life of wealthy Romans took place over two thousand years ago. Compared to Pompeii, the site is much less crowded, making the visit more relaxed and allowing you to appreciate the details at your own pace. Another great thing is that entrance is free – a rare chance to see such a well-preserved piece of history without any cost. If you’re interested in ancient Rome, this site is an absolute must.

PLEASE go visit the Villa San Marco - you won’t be disappointed. Right from the start, you enter the atrium with its stunning frescoes, bathed in the light of the impluvium’s open roof. Then you walk down the hallways, which are literally covered from floor to high ceiling in red frescoes, with small designs - it seems impossible! The peristyle garden is large with mature trees and loads of shade, and a *gigantic* and deep pool. The porticos on either side are again covered with colorful frescoes, which lead to similarly decorated rooms. A fantastic experience. NOTE: you really need to visit the brand new Stabiae Archaeological Museum (Libero d’Orsi), as it has hundreds of frescoes from the Villa San Marco, the nearby Villa Arianna, and other assorted ancient Roman villas in the Stabiae area. It will leave you breathless - gorgeously presented and comprehensive.

Stumbled across this little gem whilst waiting for a vehicle repair. Not many clues to highlight its presence however I was very pleased to have wandered in to explore this small slice of ancient Roman history. Selfishly it was the almost complete lack of any other visitors which made it feel so special. Thank you to Anthonio who brought the venue to life with his enthusiasm and fascinating insights into both the building and former occupants.

Fantastic hidden gem. Beautiful frescos and tiling. A little out of the way but well worth visiting - less overwhelming than Pompeii for someone who doesn't like crowds. 10/10

Incredibly well preserved Roman villa and baths. You can see the very detailed wall paintings in every room, the working ways of the baths of the time, and of course the villa itself. Also, in comparison to many other similar quality archeological areas, it is free to visit.

Perfect place to discover Roman time lifestyle especially if you go with kids this place is for free the parking is possible here and it's free as well free toilets but most of all very very interesting site with not many visitors the place is basically for you and it's highly interesting, see my photos and just come here to visit

The villa is about a 20 minutes walk from Via Nocera railway station. It is situated overlooking the town of Castellammare di Stabia. It is free to enter (opening times available on the Pompeii website), you just need to sign in at the entrance building. The complex has a good set of rooms, with some excellent surviving wall art fragments and tiled floors. The site also provides good views of Vesuvius. Took about an hour to look around it all. Site also has the best public toilets we have found so far in Italy - spotless, hot water, soap, working hand dryers and toilets with seats!

Lovely Villa, it’s a real hidden gem of Castellammare! Here you can have a wonderful view of Mount Vesuvius!

Do not miss this. Beatiful panorama from this charming villa. Not easy to get the ( unfortunately) but it is worth a deviation or a short walk. You really get a feeling of "good life" in Roman times. After the visit go to the museum: some of the paintings escavated here are there.

Villa Arianna was the first one of three I visited outside Herculaneum and Pompei. It was lovely, there was almost nobody. The feeling you have for spending time there is priceless. But the Bourbons really butchered the house and took its lovely frescoes. You can see them in Archeological museum, but it's not the same as walking through these corridors.

Incredible roman villa in good condition with original frescos still intact. Hard to get to so not many tourists here, making it good for photos if you are here.

Phenomenally preserved ruins. My wife and I were practically the only ones there. Highly underrated. And it was free!

Beautiful, and not known to many tourists. It's a must see. Goggle direction form train station to Villa. Easy accessible via train from Naples

Incredibly beautiful place, well organized. Perfect for a weddings

With a bit more maintenance would be a must see near Naples. I loved it. Easy to arrive there and no issue in parking.

Sadly not open to the public 😏

Not open for the public without resevervation. I was told its just for weddings, i stood in front of closed gates and took the walk for nothing, but maybe i was there at the wrong time, even though it said online that it's open.

Dont expect to visit - this is only for private catering parties

Says "open" but it's not open to the public.

Very nice place for a wedding

Wow! I sat in this place and imagined all that’s happened in the world since this place was built. Also imagined the process of building it. Those men working so hard who are now long gone. And the moment the volcano erupted. Amazing historical site!

What an experience! The fact that they uncovered this city after 1700 years and then it took almost 300 years of labor for it to be admired by tourists is unbelievable. We'll worth seeing it!!

Visiting the ruins of Pompeii is less a tourist attraction and more a profound historical experience. It is unlike any other archaeological site in the world, offering an unparalleled look at the daily life of a Roman city frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. The sheer scale of the city is staggering. You can wander for hours through ancient streets, still marked by chariot ruts, and step inside bakeries, bathhouses, and even lavish villas like the House of the Vettii. Seeing the original mosaics, frescoes, and the detailed architecture brings history to life in a way textbooks simply cannot. The path is often uneven, but the reward is worth the effort. The most moving part of the visit is seeing the plaster casts of the victims—a tragic, powerful reminder of the disaster. Standing on the very spot where people lived, worked, and ultimately perished, with Vesuvius looming dramatically in the background, creates a deep sense of connection to the past. This is an essential stop for anyone interested in history or archaeology. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring plenty of water!

Although it is actually the only theatre in Pompeii it was given this name to distinguish it from the nearby Odeion, which is much smaller and was used for different purposes. It was built in the 2nd century B.C. more or less according to traditional Greek canons in so far as the tiered seating makes use of a natural slope and the orchestra is arranged in a horse-shoe shape. It was extended and restored during the reign of Augustus at the personal expense of the Holconius brothers, who were rich Pompeian vine growers. An inscription tells us that the entire seating area had been resurfaced in marble, but this was removed and carried off after the destruction of the town. The upper circle was added to increase the seating capacity and the two side boxes built above the entrances to the orchestra were reserved for the guests of honour. In this way the theatre of Pompeii could accommodate 5,000 people seated in three different areas which were separated by corridors. The first (called the ima Cavea) was situated in the orchestra itself and had four rows of seats which were reserved for the decurions, while the first rows of the media Cavea were for the representatives of the corporations: one of these was reserved for the eldest of the Holconius brothers and was identified by an inscription in bronze letters.The remaining places right up to the top part (summa Cavea) were designated for the ordinary townspeople. The final tier had stone rings fitted into the walls which were used to support the poles which held the large canopy covering the theatre to protect the audience from the sun.The stone stage was rebuilt after the earthquake of 62 A.D. in imitation of the facade of an important building decorated with columns, niches and statues. To the rear was a small and unusual-shaped dressing room running the whole width of the stage area, which could be reached by three doors leading directly from the stage. A further three doors lead out onto a large courtyard.

The Teatro Grande, or Great Theatre of Pompeii, is an impressive architectural marvel that showcases the grandeur of ancient Roman entertainment. With a seating capacity of approximately 5,000, this large amphitheater features a stunning semicircular design and remarkable acoustics, making it perfect for theatrical performances and public events. The well-preserved tiered seating and the intricately detailed stage backdrop invite visitors to envision the lively performances that once took place here. Surrounded by the beautiful backdrop of Vesuvius, the Teatro Grande offers a captivating glimpse into Pompeii’s cultural life and artistic heritage. A visit to this iconic site is a journey into the heart of ancient drama, immersing you in the rich traditions of Roman theater.

Is there a 6star rating! Fantastic day out. Got a tour for the morning then wandered by ourselves all afternoon. Could do with a few more information displays, but info available on line. Cafes a little busy but decently priced.

Near hare is restaurant and in this place people can eat and drink. Why?

Amazing place. So large. Really need more than one day to take the whole place in. An afternoon is just not enough. Bring your own water. Restrooms can be a ways away.

The Temple of Apollo Very interesting to visit and it is a must

I loved walking the streets and seeing the historic Roman Ruins. As I was walking I could envision crowded street with women tending to their children, men taking care of business and hear the Roman chariots coming through the streets. It was truly a highlight during my tour of Italy. Our tour guide Roberto was an excellent story teller.

Pompeii (/pɒmˈpeɪi/) was an ancient Romancity near modern Naples in the Campaniaregion of Italy, in the territory of the comuneof Pompei. Pompeii, along with Herculaneumand many villas in the surrounding area (e.g. at Boscoreale, Stabiae), was buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of volcanic ash and pumicein the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. Volcanic ash typically buried inhabitants who did not escape the lethal effects of the earthquake and eruption. Largely preserved under the ash, the excavated city offers a unique snapshot of Roman life, frozen at the moment it was buried and providing an extraordinarily detailed insight into the everyday life of its inhabitants. Organic remains, including wooden objects and human bodies, were entombed in the ash and decayed away, making natural molds; and excavators used these to make plaster casts, unique and often gruesome figures from the last minutes of the catastrophe. The numerous graffiti carved on the walls and inside rooms provides a wealth of examples of the largely lost Vulgar Latinspoken colloquially, contrasting with the formal language of the classical writers. Pompeii is a UNESCO World Heritage Sitestatus and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2.5 million visitors every year. Excavations recommenced in several unexplored areas of the city, and in 2018 new discoveries were reported.

The Santuario di Apollo in Pompeii is known for housing the "Seikilos epitaph," one of the earliest known musical compositions in Western music history. This inscription, engraved on a tombstone within the sanctuary, includes both lyrics and musical notation. It offers insights into ancient musical practices and reminds us of the enduring power of music across time.

One day was not enough here. Really needed more time here. Great experience

I loved visiting Pompeii. Better than Machu Picchu in my opinion because that was largely built after the fact and had only a few original stones, so it was pretty much fake! But here, although they went to great lengths rebuilding the city they excavated, they found many interesting artifacts so we know the lifestyles of the inhabitants. You must go see the carbonized seeds and fruits in the National Archeological Museum in Naples!

Teatro Piccolo is a very well-preserved theater. It is simply amazing that there's this much left of it and it has very great views. The architecture and engineering that it took to build is simply amazing and it is unbelievable that it lasted this long and it kept it well preserved

The Teatro Piccolo, or Odeon, is the smaller but classier sibling of the Great Theatre. Built mainly for music and poetry performances – no rowdy crowds or snack stands here – just quiet listeners pretending to be cultured. With its roof and superb acoustics, even a whispered argument could sound like an epic Greek tragedy. Perfect for those who prefer lyres over lions.

It is truly a shame that you can no longer enter the theatre except from taking a photo of it from one of the entrances. Still amazed by how they were able to build these structures. Definitely not anything extravagant, but practical and with small ornamental details.

Even if its small (that is what piccolo means), it appears big to the eye as you get a close view like you are at the center. Really beautiful.

Lots of interesting historical information to gather and learn. 👍🏽

Beautiful smaller and well preserved theatre Piccolo, just off from the big one next to it.

This was cool to see, some original steps and seat/rows ect still present

I was shocked. I just ordered cocktails 🍸 and they brought me plate of snacks.... and I love them.. but what was shocking about... that i have payed only for cocktails and plate was for free 😋 Definitely I'm coming back tomorrow 😈😎👌🍸 Because I paid only 20 euros for 2 💶

We are from Edinburgh Scotland and found this place by accident on walking back from Villa San Marco. What a relaxing atmosphere, we were tired and thirsty we ordered drinks then food. Food were amazing, we ordered burger with chips and bacon and some salad both just perfect, could not ask for any more, 10 out of 10, both freshly made, we also ordered desserts, freshly made fruits and cream. Very glad we found this place and we're planning to go back again. At the end they ordered us taxi to the station. If they were in Edinburgh we would be there all the time.

Great atmosphere and music. Staff are welcoming and accommodating

My brother and I was here tonight, our last day in the area before driving up north. We had a great time, the staff was super nice, the atmosphere was awesome and food/drinks were great. I'd recommend 10/10.

This place was walking distance from our hotel, so we figured we'd try it out. I was totally not expecting anything special, but we were pleasantly surprised! The staff is really nice and the bartender is REALLY good! He can make some really crazy cocktails, all the way down to simple gin and tonics with a twist. The food is so so, but I would go back 100 times for the drinks, staff and dessert!

Wonderful menu and service, and the venue is absolutely beautiful. We came here twice on our vacation and would happily go back again!

Very friendly team and very reasonable prices. No tricks with cover charges. Excellent cocktails from a mixologist who knows his stuff. Don't miss it during your stay.

Good place to sit and relax on a sea side.

Nice Pavilion.

The heart of a beautiful city

Very particular place in Castellammare

Perfect

Bell

Bellavista

It’s a pretty small place with a small number artifacts. It’s a little dust seems like maybe they are planning on renovating. It is free and across the street from a more grand cathedral, so if you around there might as well stop by.

(Translated by Google) The Sorrento-Stabiese Diocesan Museum is an archaeological museum, located in Castellammare di Stabia and so called because it was created at the behest of the archdiocese of Sorrento-Castellammare di Stabia together with a team of archaeologists. Today's Co-Cathedral was built in what is now Piazza Giovanni XXIII by order of Monsignor Ludovico Majorano, who laid the first stone on 22 November 1587. The construction continued with ups and downs. In 1760 the Cathedral was consecrated by the bishop Monsignor Giuseppe Coppola. It was further enlarged in the last years of the 19th century. The Co-Cathedral is a Latin cross with three naves and five chapels on each side: you can admire the frescoes by Francesco Paliotti on the vault, splendid marble works, the stucco work by Luigi Prezioso, the gilding by Francesco Galante. Numerous and precious canvases are kept in it; among them the Deposition by Jusepe de Ribera, the Delivery of the Keys to Saint Peter by Giuseppe Bonito, the Assumption by Nunzio Rossi, the Visitation of the Madonna to Saint Elizabeth by Giacinto Diano and the Trinitarian canvas with Christ in the arms of the Eternal Father of the 17th century. In the Chapel of San Catello, in addition to the splendid wooden statue (17th century) of the patron saint of Castellammare, there is the strigliato sarcophagus of Cornelia Ferocia, with in the center a female figure with a scroll and two shepherds with a lamb and a ram on the shoulders. During the first excavation, carried out in 1876 to lay the foundations of the chapel of San Catello and to expand the Cathedral, most of the finds preserved here were found at a depth of about three meters. In 1879, while digging a well under the sacristy of the Cathedral, about one meter deep, the sarcophagus of Julius Longinus (n. 47), the epigraph of Cornelia Ferocia (n. 45), some inscriptions and the milestone were found. Adrianea (n. 24), indicating the eleventh mile from Nuceria. Thanks to these and other finds it has been possible to ascertain that between the Augustan age and the 3rd century AD. the western coastal strip of Stabia was characterized by port installations, shops and workshops and was placed here between the 4th and 5th centuries AD. a Christianorum area, initially a subdial cemetery superimposed on the previous buildings. The finds, initially displayed as in a "small museum" in the chapter house of the Cathedral of Castellammare, remained entrusted to the state Antiquarium Stabiano from 16 January 1964 until 2007. Cit. (Original) Il Museo diocesano sorrentino-stabiese è un museo di tipo archeologico, ubicato a Castellammare di Stabia e così chiamato poiché realizzato per volere dell'arcidiocesi di Sorrento-Castellammare di Stabia insieme ad un team di archeologi. L'odierna Concattedrale é stata costruita nell'attuale piazza Giovanni XXIII per volontá di Monsignor Ludovico Majorano, il quale pose la prima pietra il 22 Novembre 1587. la costruzione proseguí con alterne vicende. Nel 1760 il Duomo fu consacrato dal vescovo Monsignor Giuseppe Coppola. Fu ulteriormente ampliata negli ultimi anni del secolo XIX. La Concattedrale é a croce latina con tre navate e cinque cappelle per lato: si possono ammirare gli affreschi di Francesco Paliotti sulla volta, splendide opere marmoree, i lavori in stucco di Luigi Prezioso, le dorature di Francesco Galante. In essa sono custodite numerose e preziose tele; tra esse la Deposizione di Jusepe de Ribera, la Consegna delle chiavi a San Pietro di Giuseppe Bonito, l'Assunta di Nunzio Rossi, la Visitazione della Madonna a Santa Elisabetta di Giacinto Diano e la tela Trinitaria con Cristo tra le braccia dell'Eterno Padre del XVII secolo. Nella Cappella di San Catello, oltre alla splendida statua in legno (sec. XVII) del Santo patrono di Castellammare, é posto il sarcofago strigliato di Cornelia Ferocia, con al centro una figura femminile con rotolo e due pastori rispettivamente con un agnello e con un ariete sulle spalle. Durante il primo scavo, eseguito nel 1876 per gettare le fondamenta sulla cappella di San Catello e per ampliare il Duomo, a circa tre metri di profonditá furono trovati la maggior parte dei reperti qui conservati. Nel 1879 scavando un pozzo, sotto la sacrestia del Duomo, a circa un metro di profonditá, furono rinvenuti il sarcofago di Julius Longinus (n. 47), l'epigrafe di Cornelia Ferocia (n. 45), alcune iscrizioni e la colonna miliaria Adrianea (n. 24), indicante l'undicesimo miglio da Nuceria. Grazie a questi e ad altri reperti si é potuto constatare che tra l'etá augustea e il III secolo d.C. la fascia litoranea occidentale di Stabia é stata caratterizzata da installazioni portuali, da botteghe ed officine e qui fu posta, tra il IV e il V secolo d.C. un'area Christianorum, inizialmente un cimitero subdiale sovrapposto alle precedenti costruzioni. I reperti dapprima esposti come In un “piccolo museo” nella sala Capitolare del Duomo di Castellammare, dal 16 Gennaio 1964 fino al 2007 sono rimasti affidati all'Antiquarium Stabiano statale. Cit.

This museum within the ancient town of Pompeii is a must visit. Here you can view actual molds of real people and animals that were victims of the eruption.The very famous Dog of Pompei is stored here! There’s also a lot of items used in daily life back in those times that are on display here , along with artifacts and Art. This museum also provides a respite from the hot Weather outside and there are nice bathrooms. Dont skip this museum when you are in Pompei.

A must see when in Southern Italy. Crowded but not too bad as literally you are touring a small city so you can escape and get lost in History.

This amazing preserved city that shows really how the ancient Romans lived is really starting to get over commercialized. It's very crowded and some tour guides just make stuff up..lol. Get the audio guide..it is very hot during the summer months so prepare appropriately.

A classic museum right in Pompeii offering an intriguing look at archaeological finds from the city and surrounding area. Here you’ll find statues, mosaics, tools, and everyday objects – some exhibits might seem a bit morbid, so brace yourself if you have a sensitive stomach. The museum is a great stop to take a break from the busy ruins and soak up more history and stories that the ruins alone can’t tell. Plus, it’s a place to relax and fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere of ancient life.

It was great experience. I always wonder and want to see this antique city. When you think conditions of 2000 years ago it was really developed and great city. You can think you are at beginning of modern date while walking on in street of Pompeii. Buildings street water canals stores everything was great and I think today's city design base to Pompei's architecture. By the way remains of people was not much we saw just 3 or 5 remain of people and of course in the little historical museum next to Pompei

Recently updated and opened in January 2021, the new Antiquarium provides a modern museum space for some of the treasures of Pompeii that are still on-site. Frescoes, artifacts, and casts of the residents caught by the volcanic flows are on display in an modern, air-conditioned space. A number of these items had either not been displayed or were displayed outdoors and partially sheltered from the elements.

Beautiful and informative museum in Pompeii. I highly recommend coming here prior to entering the city, especially if you’re on a self-guided tour. There is a ton of info in this museum and a lot of well-preserved and interesting artifacts, including casts of people who died in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. You can easily spend an hour here, so plan to arrive at Pompeii a little early! Definitely need to experience this. The entrance is kind of strangely placed — you’ll have to walk all the way to the bottom of the hill to reach it.

Just a small museum, if you have seen museum of Naples there is not much here. However there are few good things which were found in Pompeii. When i visited part of museum was closed and i dint get to see all of it. If you have 3 day pompeii ticket this is included.

Lovely Museum, beautifully laid out, and as you leave down the drive the best view of Vesuvius ever. We had the place to ourselves.

Suggestion: visit the museum after the visit to the villa (Arianna and San Marco) nearby. Many paintings shown here are taken from there. The museum (and the villa) make a trip to Castellamare worth on its own

Excellent new museum outside the city. There are the frescoes and artifacts from San Marco and Villa Ariana archeological site to see. It may be difficult to get there. We had 3 day Pompei card with free Artebus to get there on the way to San Marco and Vills Ariana archeological site.

Nice museum, but getting there without a car is a Nightmare.

Great exhibition of artefacts found at Roman villas in the area!

Very beautiful museum

It's a fascinating archeological site to witness ancient Rome which was destroyed or buried in the volcanic ashes. I highly recommended to visit if you are near Naples or Sorrento. It's a massive place and well restored, still restoration work is ongoing. That said it's quite hard to tell some areas whether it's restored, or original. There are lots of information to take in and it's worth taking a tour guide as you would be lost without it because sign posts are very limited and it's like a maze. We had a tour guide of 20 people which was not very comfortable and personal. As only people in front gets a better understanding. I will suggest if you want a better experience choose less than 10 people in a tour. Plus, do not visit on a hot sunny day specially with a child. There is a very little shade, not many toilets, or water or cafe facilities for children. Please don't take any pram as pathways are not built for pram. Overall, it's a must see place, truly enriching experience, but not suitable or pleasant with a baby or young children.

Definitely worth visiting during low season in the morning. I saw less than a hundred people the whole time. Walking through the ruins can be difficult if you don't have proper shoes. It is all cobblestone and uneven terrain. Also, bring a map it is easy to get lost and the park is large and dense in some areas. Don't forget bottled water and snacks. There are no cafes or places to eat. The cafe in the middle was closed. You will have to walk to the entrance or exit if you want something to eat. Overall, unique place to visit if you enjoy history. Plan an entire day to see the major sites. 2-3 days if you want to see everything and not feel rushed.

Must see archeological site for all ages. A well preserved large city (between 11,000 - 20,000 people), showing how the Romans lived. It is a whole lot of walking on not so smooth narrow sidewalks, so bring comfortable hiking shoes, plenty of water and take lots of breaks. We saw about 1/3 of the city in 3 hours. You will need more than 1 day to see all. Start early, they shut the gates around 3pm for coming in. Not ideal for baby strollers or wheelchairs. Lots of neat pictures you can take. Bring a snack, they supposedly have a restaurant inside, we saw possible sign for it. Restrooms only at entrances, that we saw, so plan accordingly. If you buy your tickets at the entrance plan on a very slow line, do to only one employee in booth and make sure you have exact change, because they will not have change. The signage for parking, ticket locations very poor and lacking. The signage in the park itself is very lacking and street numbers are very confusing so pay attention to the map they give you and track your route or it will be very easy for you to get lost. There are water fountains/spigots but they are not marked as drinkable. Please be respectful of others trying to get by you on the sidewalks and try not to block them or the room entrances and be courteous to the elderly people.

Fascinating archaeological park. If you are not familiar with the history, I suggest some light reading before exploring the park. Even if you are familiar with the history, I would still recommend to get a professional guide to explore the park as they would know which interesting spots to look at. Such a surreal experience to be where a civilization was buried. Also recommend to go in the afternoon as morning would be quite packed.

You have to expect it to be crowded, but in this case, it's not a problem as the place is huge!!! There's so much to see, highly recommend to book in advance and also to arrive early to be able to see everything. We arrived at 9am and left at around 3pm, so the people that come after lunch surely won't have time to see and walk everything. We had bought the Pompei+ ticket which gives access to the west area, it was nice but could do without it, specially when you're already so tired of walking all day.

Visiting the city of Pompeii was truly an unforgettable experience. The moment I walked in, I felt as if time had stopped. The ancient streets, the perfectly preserved ruins, and the powerful history behind every corner were absolutely breathtaking. It’s incredible to see how an entire city has remained frozen in time, offering such a vivid glimpse into the past. Pompeii is a place that leaves you speechless—impressive, haunting, and completely fascinating

Visited here on 06/11/25. We had a 2 hour tour and it was SO interesting!!!! Absolutely enjoyed it all!!! We also had good luck with the weather, it was warm enough to wear t-shirts and shorts!! Go and visit this amazing historical place, you won't regret it!!!! A guided tour is a must!! :)

See Capri on your way - use Positano as your jump off point for that excursion. Hiking, water sports, climbing, boating, fishing, sight seeing, food, museums, the locals - they are all here! go there .... #BucketList Limoneto di Ercole in Erchie and Hotel Royal Continental in Naples on the Gulf are excellent bases for exploring the treasures of Campania, The Amalfi Coast and Naples. Limoneto di Ercole What a pleasure! The property is first class and the host is a real gent (Nicola - excuse the incorrect spelling I think) - cannot help enough with advice about everything from taxis to excursions to hikes to motor bike treks to restaurants to shopping to bus timetables to ferries. The room was 5 star with a mezzanine bedroom and an enormous king in the master bedroom. Huge bathroom and a well stocked self catering kitchen. A view to kill for as it afforded a vista over the town of Erchie and the Gulf of Naples. The entire property is swathed in lemon and lime groves which are carefully manicured and managed by the ever present Isaac. After a long days hike there is a grass platform which gets the sun until after 6pm replete with a hot tub! This is one of the best self catering locations I have stayed at globally and I would highly recommend it for travellers of all types - note the property closed November to March. Bus stop is outside the front door. Lots of onsite parking. If you are not hiring a car then note that the taxi from Naples airport can be negotiated down to about EUR€120 but I still get the feeling I was had. An alternative route would be to take a EUR€5 taxi (10 minutes) to Cetara and a ferry to Salerno (20 minutes, no stops, EUR€5 per passenger and EUR€5 per bag) then take the express train to Naples Centrale (35 minutes) for EUR€4.30 then it is a 15 minute taxi ride to the airport for about EUR€20 depending. Get a train from the same station to Pompei and Vesuvius. Do the Vesuvius hike, allocate a day for Pompei (divert from the crowd and go south to the less crowded side streets and vineyards (near where the mummified bodies exhibit is), take the ferry (Travel Mar is the best company IMHO) to Sorrento and ferry hop the Amalfi coast from Sorrento to Positano to Maoiri to Minori to Cetara and then Salerno and then take the train (30 minutes) back to Naples. See Capri on your way - use Positano as your jump off point for that excursion. Hiking, water sports, climbing, boating, fishing, sight seeing, food, museums, the locals - they are all here! You can book tickets for all of the above online. Google it. Google is your friend. Hotel Royal Continental The hotel is located right opposite Castel dell'ovo and around the castle there is a marina and plenty of restaurants and cafe's. The street in front of the hotel has a walk for 5 kms along the Gulf of Naples and the entire stretch is dotted with restaurants - all good value with extensive menus. It comes alive at night with locals. The hotel is only 1.5kms from the ferry terminal where you can also book bus tours or just bus routes to multiple destinations. Easy taxi ride to the airport - 23EUR standard fare.

Love hiking here, choose a guide if you are not sure about what you are doing. The views are breathtaking.

Incredible views. No other hikers. Poor signage makes finding and choosing among trails a challenge.

Thousands drops of water scatering down the green moss, coming together as small waterfalls down to the Amalfi coast. We had to break rules a bit to see all the beauty of these waterfalls.

We loved staying in San Lazzaro - relaxing small town. Easy to get where you want on the buses and the views of the mountains were amazing!

Lemon tree and clean water falls~~ Joyful tracking

What at awesome part of Italy! All this area on the amalfi coast was beautiful. I met my old japanese teacher and her friend here, all really liked it.

Even when it's busy, especially in the cool of the evening, it's very serene with a certain peaceful feeling and great views of Vesuvius.

The sights are breathtaking. All along the border are restaurants to dine, just watch the times that they might be closed. Locals are somewhat nice and not very helpful. Never ask an older person for help, they will just talk about how they hate tourists. Also, watch out for the dog poop. Either than that, get lost and find treasures in this cute town!

Lots of fun for everyone and views to die for

Good playground area for children at least for our "sadly not always excellent standards". Surprisingly good, large and clean publict toilets less than 50 meters away from the playground area itself (not sure whether I was lucky :-)

Probably the best sea promenade in Italy. The view is breathtaking with the mount Vesuvius on one side and mount Faito on the other.

Amazing views

Nice locations Huge potential Not yet used

Awful marina. We were there in August: more than 200€ per night, but for electricity and water you need to pay extra money. Safety level is also low, no security gates, everyone can get to any yacht… women showers and toilets were open despite the security code (this code didn’t work so it was open), so any person can get into it. For what I paid such money?

This is a huge marina close by Naples. Nice views, safe place and lovely agents. Quietly for walking even when is late and darkness.

We hired a motor boat from here, the guard was humerous and helpful when we arrived, making sure we got to the correct quay. The toilet facilities were fantastic and the fuelling station attendants were very helpful. As for the yachts moored there... inspiration enough for any budding entrepreneur.

If you’re going to pick up provisions here. Don’t go there as I was charged 700 euros just to pick up provisions. Day light robbery this port.

Nice mooring facilities. No diesel available when we visited. Toilets not very clean. Difficult to get taxis.

Its a nice marina, staff are multi lingual and helpful. Downsides are that it is quite away from the town and shops, although a free mini bus is available and the the berthing fees are pretty steep, 380€ a day ( plus water and electricity) for our 24m Ketch.

A modern marina with good security. Let down by poor condition of showers/toilet blocks and being surrounded by derelict buildings. Castellammare di Stabia is pretty grim too, however the club house restaurant is superb!

Parking is good, but they will charge you 20€ independent of the time you stay (if you leave before 22h00, otherwise, they will charge you 25 if you leave between 22h and 24h). Leaving after 00h00 is another full day. At least they are open about it when you enter the parking.

Very easy and safe parking no issues at all. Only thing, it's expensive, €15 for the day. However, it's very easy and has a supermarket right next door, which is very useful.

A sales representative on the street attracts cars and haggles. Tried us at €15, quickly went down to €10 The parking was 60% free, I entered only to finish a phone call. Tried to leave 10 min later and was forced by rude staff (chasing me with e-scooter and shouting) to pay the full amount. Better avoid - also consider looking up the free parking not too far away from the ruins. Edit: - the review gets a bump from 1 to 2 stars for the courtesy of the manager to answer! Appreciated! - the comment by the manager is partially correct, yet doesn’t cover the whole story - I did enter, so I can finish my call, without being bothered by the sales representative, and then decide what to do.. these guys are fairly pushy. In any case, €10 charge for 10 mins stay (whatever the circumstances) is absurd. It was communicated by “we’ve issued a tax invoice, pay up!” by guy on a scooter screaming at me… 1) not really a tax invoice, rather a disposable hand written note - You get these as standard at parking lots. An actual receipt is issued upon asking 2) it’s nice to see the “Mister” pronoun here, yet the staff on premise was rude I was left with a bitter feeling of a tourist trap - they will do anything to get You in, at the highest price You bite. Then come up with nonesense in loud voice, if needed. Better avoid this place

Booked the ticket online. No problems onsite. I am an American tourist, and no one tried to scam me out of more money. It was simple and easy to park. I’m taking one star because I think ten dollars is too expensive for short term parking. Five would have been a fair price.

I think I got scammed by those people who called me from far away, there is a line of parkings and this parking is the first one, it is true that it is clearly written that the parking is for the archaeological park of Pompeii, but it was necessary to check with the others too, I find that 20 euros is too expensive especially since I only took 3 hours to visit the site. The guy at the parking did not even try to offer a commercial gesture because at the beginning we had negotiated 20 euros for the whole day, at my return I did not ask for anything, they did not offer anything either, they forced me to pay cash because supposedly the machine is broken, I did not have a parking ticket or anything at all ...

Parking was good and safe, but I can highly recommend to check the parking lott next to pompei site, there was allot cheaper park places than this. Use this only if there is no other option

Don't park here. Do it somewhere else. Scammers. Disrespectful and aggressive. 20 euros day, you can get 10 or even 6 for 3/4 hours that is the time you spent in Pompeii.

The guy who is always there is as trustworthy as someone trying to sell you the ruins for a dollar.

Be aware of this place. We checked the prices before from online and after we went to the office nobody was there, even though the internet and office door said that its open. We contacted him and he said that he’s 10 minutes away from the office. Eventually we waited him for 40 minutes. No apologies. First thing he tries to fool us to pay 250, even though every online site tells the price around 77 for 3 days. After telling him the price from his own website as trying to negotiate, he gets arrogant and upset. Then he tell us to buy it from the website ourself, otherwise he couldn’t get the car for us. Wondering if we wouldn’t have internet on our phone... Eventually got a desent car and rest of it went well. But he has an cocky attitude.

A bit of a walk from the bus station. The Hertz Rental car attendant is very nice and speaks passable English, certainly more fluency in English than I have in Italian. The taxi drivers at the station here are crooks though. Don't take a taxi from here unless you are desperate. They tried to charge me 20 euros to go 2.2 km (1 mile). I jumped out of the taxi and walked to my destination instead.

Everything went smooth and according to the plan. Friendly staff and no scam whatsoever.

Very helpful service. Make sure you check that there is someone there at the time you plan to arrive, it's a very small office, and the attendant might be at lunch or busy elsewhere.

Great service and very helpful Manger. Cars about his customers even if they don't speak Italiano. He goes out and direct them.

Good service.chilled guy. Didn't face any issues

Nice B&B with very friendly host. Walking distance from center Pompei, trainstation and excavations of Pompei. Safe, closed with gates, and spacious parkingplace, also for bigger cars. Breakfast is really nice, Homemade cakes, yoghurt and also cheese, salami etc.

We stayed here for one night in August and found the host Natalia to be very helpful. It is quite comfortable and very clean. It is located very close to the ruins with a decent breakfast included.

We had a lovely stay at this B&B a few hundred yards from Pompeii. The room was clean, the bed was nice, and the parking was in a locked courtyard.

Very nice place, great host, large air-conditioned rooms. One note - take three-pin-in-row power adapter, otherwise charging your phone will be a problem :)

Good location nearby Pompei Scavi and railway station

(Translated by Google) The ideal location for visiting the excavations (accessed through the amphitheater entrance) is definitely a plus; it's just a stone's throw from the center, and the helpfulness of the girl who welcomed us (Valentina, I think). Unfortunately, however, our stay wasn't ideal: the air conditioning was leaking (we notified you upon arrival), making it impractical to use, especially considering there were three of us in a room at the end of August. Furthermore, the bathroom window remained open (it wouldn't close). The same situation applied to the outside door to the terrace, and by leaving the inside French window open to let in air, we had to hope no intruders would break in. (Original) Sicuramente aspetto positivo la posizione ideale per visitare gli scavi (accedendo dall’ingresso anfiteatro); a due passi dal centro e la disponibilità della ragazza che ci ha accolte (mi pare Valentina). Purtroppo però la permanenza non è stata ottimale: l’aria condizionata perdeva acqua (avvisate al nostro arrivo) quindi l’uso diventava poco praticabile e considerando che eravamo in tre in una stanza a fine agosto..Inoltre la finestra del bagno rimaneva aperta(non si chiudeva) Stessa situazione per la porta esterna del terrazzino e lasciando la porta finestra interna aperta per fare entrare aria si doveva sperare che nessun intruso entrasse..

(Translated by Google) A few steps from the entrance to the archaeological park and the sanctuary, Villa delle Rose is a charming B&B within a family context where Valentina, amiable and helpful hostess, welcomed us. Very convenient private parking, large room and brand new bathroom...everything very clean...for breakfast (excellent) the structure leans on a bar a few meters away. Thanks Valentina Highly recommended (Original) A pochi passi dall'ingresso del parco archeologico ed al santuario, Villa delle rose è un grazioso B&B all'interno di un contesto familiare dove,Valentina,amabile e disponibile padrona ci ha accolto. Comodissimo parcheggio privato, camera ampia e bagno nuovissimo...tutto molto pulito...per la colazione (ottima)la struttura si appoggia ad un bar a pochi metri. Grazie Valentina Consigliatissimo

The starting point when entering Pompei where you can still see a bit of the ancient wall around the city

totally worth it

(Translated by Google) This gate is currently the most famous because it is located closest to the Pompei Scavi train station, a short distance from the ticket offices. It is also the busiest, providing access to the Pompeii Archaeological Park. Souvenir shops, information points, and restrooms are also nearby. Porta Marina connected the city with the port and is the most impressive of the seven gates leading to Pompeii. (Original) Najbardziej znana obecnie brama ponieważ znajduje się najbliżej stacji kolejowej Pompei Scavi w niewielkiej odległości od kas biletowych. Jest też najbardziej uczęszczana gdyż przez nią można wejść na teren Parku Archeologicznego Pompeje. W pobliżu znajdują się również sklepy z pamiątkami, punkty informacyjne, toalety. Porta Marina stanowiła połączenie miasta z portem, jest najbardziej imponująca z siedmiu bram prowadzących do Pompejów.

Great...

Entrance to the old city.

(Translated by Google) The ancient gate that led to the sea at the time when Pompeii was inhabited by this Roman community (hence its name). Today, it's the main access to the Pompeian Archaeological Park, and from where we can begin our tour of this spectacular archaeological site. (Original) La antigua puerta que daba hacia el mar en la época en que Pompeya se encontraba habitada por esta comunidad romana (por eso su nombre). Hoy en día es el principal acceso hacia el Parque Arqueológico Pompeyano, y desde donde podemos comenzar a recorrer este espectacular yacimiento arqueológico 🏛

(Translated by Google) Old quarries and their cobblestones, the exit door, their clearings, their pedestrian crossing, everything is there, it's fantastic. (Original) Antics careers I els seus empedrats, la porta de sortida els les seves borres, els seu pas de vianants, tot es alla, es fantastic.

100% recommended .Excellent service , excellent captain and beautiful boat . We will be back for sure ! Thanks Angelo

(Translated by Google) We chose to celebrate our tenth anniversary on the yacht Carlina and it was a beautiful experience thanks also to Angelo who is an exquisite person and assisted us throughout the experience on the yacht without missing anything. (Original) Abbiamo scelto di festeggiare il nostro decimo anniversario sullo yacht carlina ed è stata una bellissima esperienza grazie anche ad Angelo che è una persona squisita e ci ha assistito in tutta l'esperienza sullo yacht senza farci mancare nulla.

(Translated by Google) An experience that was nothing short of superlative, with an aperitif at sunset off the coast of Sorrento, dinner on the boat and an overnight stay. Very comfortable and well-kept yacht, managed with skill, professionalism and courtesy by Angelo who, in addition to being a great skipper, also turned out to be a brilliant chef. Highly recommended and to be repeated👏👏 (Original) Esperienza a dir poco superlativa con aperitivo al tramonto al largo di Sorrento, cena in barca e pernottamento. Yacht comodissimo e tenuto egregiamente, gestito con maestria, professionalità e garbo da Angelo che oltre ad essere un bravissimo skipper si è anche rivelato un brillante cuoco. Altamente consigliato e da rifare👏👏

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately it was closed after the tragedy, it's a shame it wasn't restored as soon as possible (Original) Purtroppo chiusa dopo la tragedia, un peccato non ripristinarla al più presto

Worth a visit up as the views are incredible. Cable cars are around every 30mins and tickets can be bought in the train station. We travelled from Pompeii Scavi station and it was really easy to get the tickets. It's about an 8 minute ride up and there's not much room as you are all packed in, but worth it at the top!

Wow what a view! Over 1000 meters high, great views of the local area and has places to eat and drink at the top! Do not travel on if you are afraid of heights! 🤣

Excellent views across the bay of Naples to Vesuvius in the distance. Cable car (funivia) very easy to access right next to the station at Castella Mare di Stabia. At the top you can partake in pony trekking, para gliding and other activities or relax at one of the restaurants/ bars. Cable cars are about every 20 minutes and hold about 30 people, return trip is €8. The top has an "alpine" feel to it and is considerably cooler than the town below, a great place to escape the heat.

Amazing views and an incredible activity. You can see the whole Bay of Naples, Pompeii, Vesuvius, Capri and more from the summit. The ride leaves roughly every 30 minutes. Buy tickets. From within the train station, then walk right along the platform.

Easily misted if taking the train ! Well worth the 9€

Well worth the visit, i mean watch these photos: Tourists currently pay 9,50€ for going up and down. One way takes about 7 minutes and up there in the evening it can get fresh so be prepared. We had a very special talk for hours with these views.

fantastic tourist attraction, especially because of beautiful views and the nought of people here (what surprised me - Pompei is so close); perfect place for mountain hiking or bicycling (the cable car carries bikes as well); on the top you can find a lot of restaurants, cafes and other tourist facilities; one warning- the temperature is a little bit lower at the highness, so I recommend to take some warm clothes

The villa is huge and the details of the frescoes are amazing. Is complicated to arrive without car. 25 minutes walking from the train station

Burried by approximately three meters of ash following the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, this Roman Villa is currently being renovated and expanded. The stucco walls remain mostly intake in several areas.

PLEASE go visit the Villa San Marco - you won’t be disappointed. Right from the start, you enter the atrium with its stunning frescoes, bathed in the light of the impluvium’s open roof. Then you walk down the hallways, which are literally covered from floor to high ceiling in red frescoes, with small designs - it seems impossible! The peristyle garden is large with mature trees and loads of shade, and a *gigantic* and deep pool. The porticos on either side are again covered with colorful frescoes, which lead to similarly decorated rooms. A fantastic experience. NOTE: you really need to visit the brand new Stabiae Archaeological Museum (Libero d’Orsi), as it has hundreds of frescoes from the Villa San Marco, the nearby Villa Arianna, and other assorted ancient Roman villas in the Stabiae area. It will leave you breathless - gorgeously presented and comprehensive.

Amazing well preserved roman villa in good condition with not a lot of tourists. Very good to visit as you will likely have the place all to yourself for good photos.

Wonderful place to get a sense of the past (next go to the museum to see some of the paintings escavated here). The villa is impressive and worth a trip

No queues and free entry, an amazingly huge villa with a great view, a must visit location in my opinion - ideal to get an idea of pre-Vesuvius Roman times and don't fancy the much longer walk around Pompeii or Herculaneum.

Villa San Marco. I visited 3 different villas outside Herculaneum and Pompei, loved them all, but this one was my favorite. Don't know why. It is a bit twisted. Half of the house goes in 45 degrees. And many of the wall paintings were taken by Bourbons, they are in Naples Archeological Museum, replaced by the photos. Even the faded wall paintings were just mesmerizing. This atrium blew my mind.

Clean water and nice view of Vesuvius. Went in after 2:30 so the bed was 11 euros per person and 10 euros for the umbrella. The beachside is rocky so bring shoes!

Cool looking beach BUT… False advertising on entrance. We arrived late, asked about how long can we stay - since we want to see the sunset - “oh, there is no limit for you to stay” and after paying full daily price - we were asked to leave after 2 hours. MUPM Also, bar prices are way over inflated in comparison of beaches nearby.

Very good location, clean and pleasant with a beautiful view of Mount Vesuvius.

So much money for stones even is not a rollubg stones ;)

Great beach a little too crowded for July season.

So rude

Very beautiful, but 22 euro for each it is bad idea.

(Translated by Google) Excellent staff, owners helpful and friendly, sea very clean (Original) Ottimo personale, Proprietari Disponibilità e cordialità , Mare molto Puliti

(Translated by Google) I'm giving two stars because I don't understand the name changing room on the receipt, it's one of the many ways to charge entry because no one uses them, they all undress on the beach (Original) Do due stelle perché non capisco la chiamata spogliatoio sullo scontrino è uno dei tanti modi per far pagare l'ingresso tanto nessuno li usa si spogliano tutti in spiaggia

👌🏻👍🏻😎

Great place. The paintings are awesome. Worthy to visit. Try to do it at early hours, you will find the place calm, silent and very quiet.

You aren't really meant to go here. When we went to Castellammare it was an amazing experience, probably the poorest place we have seen in Western Europe. But the people were friendly and the cathedral is astonishing, an almost completely unspoiled early Renaissance masterpiece. An absolute gem of a place.

Nice church in the middle of town

Good

Super

(Translated by Google) Amalfi is a beautiful city with very nice people; I can highly recommend it. Thank you again for the wonderful time. (Original) Amalfi ist eine wunderschöne Stadt sehr nette Leute kann man nur weiterempfehlen vielen Dank noch für die schöne Stunden.

(Translated by Google) A magnificent cathedral from 1587 (Original) Wspaniała katedra z 1587 roku

Had one person show us to the museum entrance (inside the courtyard), no one was around, so we waited just inside out the rain at the desk (all doors open and ropes for queing in place, looked very open). Security came and aggressively shouted at us & could see we were very confused tourists, walked us out and showed us a tiny sign (which is easily missed) outside of the courtyard saying it was closed for construction. Partner then was bitten several times by a dog as we walked back to the car, no help from the security. A local helpfully came to help while the staff watched. Very unpleasant experience, handled very poorly, especially when it was not made clear it was closed & had someone inside the courtyard pointed us where to go

(Translated by Google) We discovered the site almost by chance by searching on Maps. When we arrived at the address we found a construction site in progress... but don't be discouraged by the unorthodox access, or the unpromising appearance of the building: the Libero D'Orsi Archaeological Museum of Stabia was inaugurated in 2020, and I personally believe that it should be the first point that all visitors should see to have an overview of the archaeological excavations of Castellammare. The museum itinerary is equipped with multimedia and interactive contents, as well as models and finds extracted from Villa Arianna and Villa S. Marco, the two main excavation sites. I highly recommend the visit, also for the wonderful view you will have of the plain, up to Vesuvius! How to reach the site: - it takes about 35 minutes on foot from the center of Castellammare di Stabia, but I don't recommend it for those who aren't used to walking: the slope is quite steep. - by bus it is about 20 minutes from Piazzale Matteotti di Castellammare, to the "Reggia Quisisana" stop along the Strada Panoramica; from there it's a 500 meter walk. Alternatively, if you purchase a ticket for the Pompeii Archaeological Park with the "Area Stabiae" visit option, you can use a shuttle that will take you to the various sites (Villa S. Marco/Villa Arianna/Reggia di Quisisana). - it is possible to reach the site by car, but as it is a narrow road, parking space nearby is limited. (Original) Abbiamo scoperto il sito quasi per caso cercando su Maps. Quando siamo arrivati all'indirizzo abbiamo trovato un cantiere in corso..ma non fatevi scoraggiare dall'accesso poco ortodosso, o dall'aspetto poco promettente dell'edificio: il Museo archeologico di Stabia Libero D'Orsi é stato inaugurato nel 2020, e personalmente ritengo che dovrebbe essere il primo punto che tutti i visitatori dovrebbero vedere per avere una visione d'insieme degli scavi archeologici di Castellammare. Il percorso museale é dotato di contenuti multimediali e interattivi, oltre che modellini e reperti estratti da Villa Arianna e di Villa S. Marco, i due principali siti di scavo. Consiglio molto la visita, anche per la vista meravigliosa che avrete della pianura, fino al Vesuvio! Come raggiungere il sito: - a piedi dal centro di Castellammare di Stabia sono circa 35 minuti, ma sconsiglio per chi non é abituato a camminare: la pendenza non é poca. - in bus sono circa 20 minuti da Piazzale Matteotti di Castellammare, fino alla fermata "Reggia Quisisana" lungo la Strada Panoramica; da lì poi sono 500 metri a piedi. In alternativa, se acquistate un biglietto per il Parco Archeologico di Pompei con opzione di visita "Area Stabiae", potete usufruire di una navetta che vi porterà nei vari siti (Villa S. Marco/Villa Arianna/Reggia di Quisisana). - in auto é possibile arrivare fino all'accesso al sito, ma essendo una strada stretta lo spazio per parcheggiare nei pressi é limitato.

(Translated by Google) Let's start by saying that the owner is not welcoming at all and is incredibly arrogant, it feels like going to war instead of being at the beach, no background music, bad atmosphere... I'm sorry but I don't recommend this place... (Original) Incominciamo dicendo che la proprietaria non è per niente accogliente e di una arroganza inaudita sembra di andare in guerra invece che stare a mare zero musica di sottofondo atmosfera brutta..mi dispiace ma non consiglio questo posto ..

(Translated by Google) A splendid Sanctuary!!!!! To be able to enjoy its beauties, when you are on the Sorrento state road towards Sorrento, turn right in front of the Byzantine-built castle which gives its name to the city and which the Duke of Sorrento had built at the end of the 1000s to defend the only access road to the peninsula. The road climbs with a slope that in a few minutes takes you to about 500 meters above sea level until you discover this small church with three rooms with a central arch and two very narrow lateral ones that the Benedictines built at the end of the 1000s with the Madonna depicted in Byzantine style between San Cataldo, patron saint of Sorrento and San Giovanni. The appearance of the Madonna is truly reassuring and a pause for reflection and reconstruction of the soul is necessary, aided by the reflections of the Franciscans who bring the Word up to date with simple and effective rhetoric. On the side, a splendid observation point on the Badilica di Pozzano below, the legendary shipyards where the first iron NSVE was launched and the famous Amerigo Vespucci. In the background the breathtaking beauty of the Castellammare seafront with the Rovigliano rock (Hercules' Stone) which legend has it was thrown by Hercules on the return of the X of the twelve labours. The powerful and almost threatening grandeur of Vesuvius interrupts the gaze towards infinity. Outside, meeting rooms and hostels. Don't miss it!!!! (Original) Uno splendido Santuario!!!!! Per poterne gustare le bellezze , quando siete sulla statale sorrentina in direzione Sorrento, svoltate propria di fronte al Castello di costruzione bizantina che da' il nome alla città è che il duca di Sorrento all fine del 1000 fece erigere a difesa della unica via di accesso alla penisola. La strada si arrampica con una pendenza che in qualche minuto vi porta a circa 500 metri sul livello del mare fino a farci scoprire questa chiesetta a tre ambienti con una arcata centrale e due strettissime laterali che i Benedettini eressero a fine 1000 con la Madonna raffigurata in stile bizantino tra San Cataldo patrono di Sorrento e San Giovanni. L aspetto della Madonna è veramente rassicurante e una pausa di riflessione e di ricostruzione della Animo si impone aiutati dalle riflessioni dei francescani che con retorica semplice e efficace attualizzano la Parola. Di lato uno splendido punto di osservazione sulla sottostante Badilica di Pozzano, i mitici cantieri navali dove venne varata ls prima nsve in ferro e la celebre Amerigo Vespucci. Sullo sfondo la bellezza mozzafiato del lungomare di Castellammare con lo scoglio di Rovigliano (Pietra di Ercole)che la leggenda narra scagliato da Ercole al ritorno della X delle dodici fatiche . L' imponenza possente e quasi minacciosa del Vesuvio viene a interrompere lo sguardo verso l'infinito . All esterno sale per riunioni e ostelli. Non ve la perdete!!!!

(Translated by Google) A wonderful place to retreat to reflect and pray. (Original) Luogo meraviglioso in cui potersi ritirare in raccoglimento e preghiera.

(Translated by Google) The Sanctuary of the Madonna della Libera located in via Madonna della Libera in the Camarelle area, on Mount San Cataldo in Castellammare di Stabia (NA), created to venerate the early Christian image of the virgin currently placed on the main altar. It has a typical architecture of a basilica, with two entrances, the interior has three narrow naves. Truly a very special place both for its position and for the stupendous view up to the Gulf of Naples and Vesuvius. (Original) Il Santuario della Madonna della Libera ubicato in via Madonna della Libera in zona Camarelle, sul monte San Cataldo a Castellammare di Stabia (NA), nata per venerare l'immagine paleocristiana della vergine attualmente posta sull'altare maggiore. Si presenta con un'architettura tipica di una basilica, con due ingressi, l'interno è a tre strette navate. Veramente un posto molto particolare sia per la posizione che per lo stupendo panorama fino al golfo di Napoli e il Vesuvio.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful and characteristic church, isolated and immersed in the greenery of the hill on which it is located, ideal for meditating. A crazy view! Unique! In my opinion the most beautiful on the gulf. (Original) Chiesa molto bella e caratteristica,isolata e immersa nel verde della collina su cui si trova,ideale per meditare. Una vista pazzesca!Unica! A mio avviso la più bella sul golfo.

(Translated by Google) The sanctuary enjoys a spectacular view, the little church is very intimate, visited on the occasion of a wedding, it conveys a very intimate atmosphere. (Original) Il santuario gode di una vista spettacolare, la chiesetta è molto raccolta, visitata in occasione di un matrimonio, restituisce un' atmosfera molto intima.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful structure with an incredible sea. For those arriving from Naples the position is strategic because it is super close compared to other similar places on the Amalfi coast. We were lucky enough to find parking on the blue lines, but further ahead there is a large parking lot on the left that is committed to keeping all the vehicles of the beaches along the road safe and it is quite cheap even if you then have to walk a bit to reach the beaches. Returning to the lido, they are very organized and the prices are honest, you find everything you need. The only flaw is that being attached to the free beach it is very chaotic and very often we were bothered by children who belonged to the beach next door and sneaked into the lido to play ball, the same also adults since the free beach was clogged. Overall however an excellent option for a quick day at the beach! P.s. The view is breathtaking! (Original) Bellissima struttura con un mare incredibile. Per chi arriva da Napoli la posizione è strategica perchè è super vicino rispetto ad altri posti simili in costiera amalfitana. Siamo stati abbastanza fortunati da trovare parcheggio sulle strisce blu, ma più avanti c’è un vasto parcheggio sulla sinistra che si impegna a tenere al sicuro tutti i veicoli delle spiagge lungo la strada ed è abbastanza economico pure anche se bisogna poi camminare un po’ per raggiungere le spiagge. Ritornando al lido, sono molto organizzati e i prezzi sono onesti, trovi tutto ciò di cu hai bisogno. L’unica pecca è che essendo attaccato alla spiaggia libera è molto caotico e molto spesso siamo stati infastiditi da bambini che appartenevano alla spiaggia affianco e si intrufolavano nel lido per giocare a palla, lo stesso anche adulti siccome la spiaggia libera era intasata. Nel complesso però un’ottima opzione per una giornata veloce di mare! P.s. Il panorama è mozzafiato!

(Translated by Google) Very nice beach, book on the site because the beach is small and you risk not finding a place, affordable price compared to the average 26 euros two sunbeds and umbrella plus the bar is super cheap (Original) Spiaggia molto carina ,prenotare sul sito perché la spiaggia è piccola e si rischia di non trovare posto, prezzo abbordabile rispetto la media 26 euro due lettini e ombrellone in più il bar è super economico

(Translated by Google) Small beach, good hospitality and services. The cleanliness of the beach and platforms could be improved (the wooden one was really dirty, with pigeon droppings and cigarette butts everywhere). Prices are high, but still more reasonable than other beaches in the area. There's plenty of space between loungers and umbrellas. There's plenty of room for improvement. (Original) Spiaggia piccola, buona l'accoglienza ed i servizi. Da migliorare la pulizia della spiaggia e delle piattaforme (quella in legno era davvero sporca, con escrementi di piccione e mozziconi di sigaretta infilati ovunque). Prezzi alti ma comunque più onesti degli altri lidi della zona. Spazio sufficiente tra lettini ed ombrelloni. Ampi margini di miglioramento.

(Translated by Google) Very reasonable prices compared to the Sorrento coast beaches, both for beach accommodations and drinks at the bar. The service is good, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. There's also a large parking lot nearby for about €7 per day, but they don't manage it. I recommend bringing beach shoes because the beach is pebbly and the water is rocky. There's even a thermal water shower. (Original) Prezzi molto convenienti rispetto ai lidi della costiera sorrentina, sia per la sistemazione in spiaggia che per le consumazioni al bar, servizi buoni, personale molto gentile e disponibile. Poco distanze c'é anche un parcheggio ampio a circa 7 euro al giorno, non gestito da loro. Vi consiglio di portarvi le scarpette perché la spiaggia é di sassolini e in acqua ci sono sassi e rocce. C'é perfino la doccia di acque termali...

(Translated by Google) A very quiet place, the staff is friendly and polite, and the food is very good. The beach is clean, a sign that the staff takes care of the beach and its facilities. Prices are low, and surprisingly, there's no chaos. Recommended for a relaxing day at the beach. (Original) Un luogo molto tranquillo, il personale è gentile ed educato, il cibo molto buono. La spiaggia è pulita, segno che il personale ha cura del lido e delle attrezzature, prezzi bassi è sorprendentemente non c’è caos. Consigliato per una rilassante giornata di mare.

(Translated by Google) The beach is nice, with reasonable prices, but the sea is disgusting. In the water, I saw plastic bottles, stroller wheels, and various debris. You can come, but only to sunbathe. (Original) Il lido è carino con prezzi non troppo alti ma il mare fa schifo. In acqua ho visto: bottiglie di plastica, ruote di un carrozzino, sporcizia varia. Su può venire ma solo per prendere il sole

(Translated by Google) Excellent and welcoming, kind and helpful lifeguards. Clean and crystalline sea, and a wonderful view in front of the sea with our Vesuvius. The staff is good and kind and the bar is very cheap. We will definitely return 😘♥️ (Original) Ottimo e accogliente , bagnini gentili e disponibili . Mare pulito e cristallino , e vista di fronte al mare stupenda con il nostro Vesuvio . Il personale bravo e gentile e bar molto economico . Ci ritorneremo sicuramente 😘♥️

Located in piazza Cristoforo Colombo, it was inaugurated in 1872. It stands in Piazza Cristoforo Colombo, but is known by all as Piazza Orologio, for the tower on which there is a clock. The citizens of the area asked for the installation of a luminous clock that could be seen from far away by fishermen and ships. It was thought possible to use the decommissioned Cantiere Navale clock, but it was subsequently decided to commission a new one from the Augusto Barnard company in Naples. The construction of a tower on which to place the clock was also established. In May 1872 the plant was inaugurated that included the tower at the top of which was placed the clock, with the bells that marked the hours and lighting due to a gas system. The clock was replaced by a new one in 196

(Translated by Google) In the century In the 16th century, the place where the clock tower stands today had the name of Marina Grande, as stated in a municipal resolution of 20 May 1519, and one of the city gates also existed there. In fact, the well-known Pacichelli table, engraved in 1703 and depicting the city at that time, indicates it as the gateway to the large marina. After its demolition, together with the entire defensive wall, a very large open space overlooking the sea opened up to the public, close to the port, a natural point of reference for those who wanted to display their merchandise for sale. The area, in this way, soon became a discreet commercial centre, so the toponym from Marina Grande transformed into that of Largo Mercato. Meanwhile, there was a need on the part of the citizens of the area to have a luminous clock that could be seen from afar by fishermen and ships at anchor, as at that time the personal use of the clock was not as widespread as it is today. (Original) Nel sec. XVI il luogo ove oggi si erge la torre dell’orologio aveva il nome di Marina Grande, così afferma una Delibera comunale del 20 maggio 1519, ed ivi esisteva anche una delle porte della città. Difatti la nota tavola Pacichelli, incisa nel 1703 e raffigurante la città a tal epoca, la indica come porta della marina grande. Dopo la sua demolizione, insieme a tutta la muraglia difensiva, si apriva al pubblico uno spiazzo molto ampio e prospiciente il mare, a ridosso del porto, punto naturale di riferimento per chi avesse voluto esporre in vendita la propria mercanzia. La zona, in tal modo, ben presto divenne un discreto centro commerciale, per cui il toponimo da marina grande si trasformò in quello di Largo Mercato. Intanto si manifestava l’esigenza da parte dei cittadini della zona di avere un orologio luminoso che potesse essere visto da lontano dai pescatori e dalle navi alla fonda, non essendo a tal epoca diffuso, come oggi, l’uso personale dell’orologio.

(Translated by Google) The Clock Tower of Castellammare di Stabia, often associated with the square of the same name, has a history deeply intertwined with that of the city and its port. ​Origins: In the 16th century, the area where the tower stands today was known as "Marina Grande" and was home to one of the city gates. This gate, along with the other defensive walls, was later demolished, creating a large square. ​The need for a clock: Over time, local fishermen and sailors expressed the need for a luminous clock that could also be seen from the sea, providing a precise reference point. ​Construction: The tower was built and lit with gas in 1872 to meet this need. ​Historical and social function: In addition to marking the time for sailors, the tower and the surrounding square have become an important focal point for city life, a market and meeting place, immortalized in numerous period prints and paintings. (Original) La Torre dell'Orologio di Castellammare di Stabia, spesso associata all'omonima piazza, ha una storia che si lega profondamente a quella della città e del suo porto. ​Origini: Nel XVI secolo, l'area in cui oggi sorge la torre era conosciuta come "Marina Grande" e vi si trovava una delle porte della città. Questa porta, insieme alle altre mura difensive, fu successivamente demolita, creando un'ampia piazza. ​L'esigenza dell'orologio: Con il tempo, i pescatori e i marinai locali espressero il bisogno di un orologio luminoso che potesse essere visto anche dal mare, per avere un punto di riferimento preciso. ​Costruzione: La torre fu costruita e illuminata a gas nel 1872 per rispondere a questa esigenza. ​Funzione storica e sociale: Oltre a segnare l'ora per i naviganti, la torre e la piazza circostante sono diventate un importante punto di riferimento per la vita cittadina, un luogo di mercato e di incontro, immortalato anche in numerose stampe e quadri d'epoca.

(Translated by Google) It is a characteristic octagonal tower, in the Piazzetta Cristoforo Colombo, known in jargon as Piazza Orologio. It was built in 1871 in the area that was formerly known as Marina Grande and then Largo mercato. It was used to be seen by fishermen and ships in the distance! Today it is a beautiful icon of the ancient district of Castellammare! (Original) È una caratteristica Torretta ottagonale, nella Piazzetta Cristoforo Colombo, detta in gergo Piazza Orologio.

(Translated by Google) Characteristic monument of Castellammare di Stabia, a port area near the sea where you can enjoy a splendid panorama and taste delicious things in the various restaurants, an area that deserves redevelopment, but if it is not the mentality of the people that changes first, it is useless, especially the people who live there (Original) Monumento caratteristica di Castellammare di Stabia, zona portuale vicino al mare dove poter godere di uno splendido panorama e gustare cose sfiziose nei vari locali, zona che meriterebbe una riqualificazione, ma se a cambiare non è prima la mentalità delle persone è inutile andrebbero riqualificate soprattutto le persone che ci abitano

(Translated by Google) In 1922 Renda presented the first sketch for the Stabia War Memorial which was inaugurated only nine years later, on 30 March 1931, because once the work was completed in 1929, he was asked to make changes to cover the nakedness of the legionaries . A small bronze plaque, placed in 1995, rededicates the monument to the fallen of all wars The monument to the fallen soldiers of the Great War stands in the center of a large square flowerbed, surrounded by an iron fence. At the corners of the white marble plinth there are four cubes on which ornamental planters rest. On the pedestal, also in white marble and marked by molded profiles, on which the commemorative inscription is engraved, stands the bronze statue of winged Victory. A second sculptural group, which depicts soldiers in combat and fallen for their country, adorns the central area of ​​the same pedestal. (Original) Nel 1922 Renda presentò il primo bozzetto per il Monumento ai Caduti di Stabia che verrà inaugurato soltanto nove anni più tardi, il 30 marzo del 1931, perché ad opera ultimata, nel 1929, gli fu chiesto di apportare delle modifiche per coprire le nudità dei legionari. Una piccola targa bronzea, apposta nel 1995, ridedica il monumento ai caduti di tutte le guerre Il monumento ai caduti stabiesi della Grande Guerra si erge al centro di una grande aiuola quadrata, perimetrata da una recinzione in ferro. Agli angoli dello zoccolo basamentale in marmo bianco sono inseriti quattro cubi su cui poggiano delle fioriere ornamentali. Sul piedistallo, anch'esso in marmo bianco e scandito da profili modanati, sul quale è incisa l'iscrizione commemorativa, insiste la statua bronzea della Vittoria alata. Un secondo gruppo scultoreo, che raffigura soldati in combattimento e caduti per la Patria, orna la zona centrale del medesimo piedistallo.

(Translated by Google) The Arch of San Catello corresponds roughly with one of the ancient gates of the city, and should date back to the 14th century. The gate was called "del Quartuccio" and takes its name from the duty that was paid upon entry to the city for those who transported goods, and therefore paid a quarter of the value of the goods. The name of San Catello was attributed to it after 1840, when a statue of the patron saint was placed on top of the gate. (Original) L'Arco di San Catello corrisponde all'incirca con una delle porte antiche della città, e dovrebbe risalire al XIV secolo. La porta era denominata "del Quartuccio" e prende il nome dal dazio che si pagava in ingresso alla città per chi trasportava merci, e quindi pagava un quarto del valore della merce. Il nome di San Catello le viene attribuito dopo il 1840, quando una statua del Santo patrono fu posta in cima alla Porta.
