"We had the best holiday here at the villa pane Gianluigi and Anne Marie make you most welcome in the villa The evening dinner and breakfast was excellent and the cooking school a must do day . Very relaxing holiday and live how a tipi cal italian family do"
"We had a wonderfull stay at Villa Pane. Both Anna Maria and Gian Luigi did all to make our stay a god experience. Anna Maria made us walk to hideaway beaches, serving good dinners as premiums when we returned. Gian Luigi helped booking sight seeings and bringing us to and picking us up from Sorrento at all times. They really took good care of us at all times."
"We had a wonderful and memorable experience with Anna Maria in her kitchen! She showed us how to make bread, the first time in my life, and it was delicious. She is very personable as well as talented. It was one of our best tours in Italy! I would highly recommend it!"
"1I travel quite a lot and I can honestly say that my experience at Villa Pane was one of the most pleasurable vacations I have ever taken. The warmth, enthusiasm and graciousness helped to make this trip memorable. I made your beef ravioli and tiramisu for my family on Christmas eve, and they loved it. If you ever get to Cincinnati let me know, Coleen and I can be your guides. Thank you for sharing your home with all of us. Wishing you and your families the best."
"We were spending couple of days in Sorrento in the end of June with my husbands family (parents, siblings and couple of young children - 8 adults and 2 kids). We really enjoyed our days in Villa Pane, which is in very peaceful and beautiful place and most of all - the host of the small Relais is so helpful and friendly and a masterchef! Anna Marie (host) and her family run the hotel so it feels like you are at home. When we asked her to prepare us some food for dinner, she made us eight-course meal, which was perfect! We ate among other things caprese, mussels, fish with a hint of peperoncino and at the end very delicious lemon cake. She prepared us courses from those ingredients she had bought in the morning from fishers/market sellers... certainly fresh!) Wine was also amazing (Greco di tufo). We asked about the wine and when we were leaving there were one box of this ideal white wine waiting for us to take with us - Anna Maries son San Luigi managed to get it to us from his friend, who produces this wine (you can't buy from shops). We ate there also next evening, cause we realised you can't get any better food from the town. And it was easy to put to sleep the kids and eat there in a lovely terrace were you can smell the lemons and basil they grow by themselves (you could hear to the terrace if children cry - balkony of that room was straight above terrace). And food was delicious again..... And breakfast was also good enough with croissants, bread, cheese, ham, jam, fruits, juice, coffee, cerials,..... Rooms were very cosy and clean. There were even an refrigerator. Bathrooms were very well equipped and clean (almost brand news). Some of the rooms have a great view to the sea. You can even shower and see the sea same time :-) There are about 10 rooms. Size of balconies vary - some rooms have only a french balcony and couple of rooms have so big balconies that there were one or two sunbeds! Upstair-rooms seemed to be little better than those which were in the lover level. But overall nice rooms. Hotel is surrounded by a lovely garden with lemon trees and herbs and flowers. There is also a small pool-area (it is a huge tub) with couple of sunbeds and tables and chairs. From Sorrento city there is about 2 to 3 km to the relais. Cause the end of the road is so steep and narrow, they have a parking space where you can leave your car and they come and pick you up and the other way round (you just call them). Or if you have a small car and you are a brave driver (as my husband with our Fiat500), you can drive straight there (as all the locals do) - there is also a parking space in a garden. They have also a parking space near the center of Sorrento, where you can leave your car while shopping/sightseeing/dining. We even left our car there when we were staying in Capri for couple of days after Sorrento. So I really can say we liked Villa Pane! I don't like hustle and bustle places with too many tourists - like Sorrento-city for me - so the situation of Villa Pane was ideal: near center but at the same time far away from it. But the best things were friendliness and food...and cleanless and peace......all- :-) Thanks Anna Marie and San Luigi (hope I remember your names correctly)!!!! ps. Guido was also lovely. Guido is their very humane and nice dog, who wanted us to play with him :-)"
"...appena tornate da una vacanza brevissima a Sorrento! Che dire...un posto meraviglioso e soprattutto la vista dalla terrazza del monolocale ci ha lasciate senza fiato! Anche se non siamo state nella struttura di Villa Pane abbiamo potuto godere della ospitalità, cordialità e discrezione di Annamaria e del suo staff! Sono persone molto disponibili che riescono a creare un\'atmosfera estremamente rilassata tra gli ospiti come durante la cena di ferragosto...era come stare tra amici!"
"Anna Maria I hope everything is well and wish to thank you, your family and staff for the wonderful time we enjoyed. Getting my "starter" going and looking forward to enjoying my new culinary knowledge. Still in touch. ralphael"

Grazie per averci accolti con fmiliarità e semplicità, il modo migliore per sentirsi a casa propria. Ieri notte non ci aspettavamo una serata in compagnia, è stata proprio una gradevole sorpresa. E poi, come non ricordare i ravioli alle melanzane di Annamaria?!! Un delizioso posticino dove rifugiarsi per godersi la natura e la bella gente, a presto!
""Thank you for making our holiday so so so beautiful!!! Villa Pane is exactly what we were looked for: friendly, helpful, well heated and a breathtaking views!"
"Victoria from United Kingdom, August 21, 2012 at 4:13 PM The hotel was extremely clean, weciomlng, and beautiful. The facilities available were above the usual for the level of hotel in this area. The swimming pool, tennis, bowls, and bikes keep you entertained. The room was very spacious an well furnished."
"Da dove si dovrebbe cominciare per descrivere Villa Pane?Forse dall'intenso profumo di gelsomini pronto ad accoglierti all'arrivo, o forse dalla meravigliosa presenza degli alberi di limoni e ulivi, complici nel creare un'atmosfera rilassante.Magari potrei cominciare dall'accoglienza delle sue camere e dalla bontà della sua genuina cucina..... Forse per non sbagliare potrei cominciare parlando dei miei nuovi amici Annamaria e Gianluigi e della loro capacità di farti sentire a casa con grande semplicità ed affetto sincero..... La verità è che a pensarci bene è proprio bello non sapere da dove cominciare per descrivere quell'angolino di paradiso che è Villa Pane e la "sua gente".... Grazie davvero di tutto Con affetto Christian P.s.: Annamaria, le tortine di ricotta e pera erano uno spettacolo!!!!! P.s.2: date a Guido una grattatina da parte mia!"
