Property Overview

Boasting a dramatically beautiful location on the cliffs of Anacapri, Caesar Augustus is known for its panoramic views of the Bay of Naples, which can be enjoyed from every window, balcony, and terrace. The building dates back to the 1800s and was once the island retreat of a Russian prince, and to this very day conserves the look and feel of a glorious private home.

When guests are not relaxing in a private sea-view garden or on a bedroom balcony, they may be found soaking up the sun by the double-level infinity pool overlooking the neighboring island of Ischia, sipping cocktails on the sweeping bar terrace, relaxing to the soft sounds of piano music in the elegantly appointed living room, enjoying spa treatments in the outdoor wellness facility, or exploring the extensive cliff-top gardens, with their myriad secret corners perfect for sea-gazing, sunbathing, and quiet moments.

Agent Tips

  • The best view? Book "sea-view cliffside." But don't ask for the highest floor: in this unique hotel, the views with serious wow factor are those seen from the first-floor rooms located right on the cliff edge.
  • Come in late April, early May or October if you want to avoid the crowds and enjoy significantly lower rates. The chances of receiving a free upgrade and other treats are also extremely high in this period.
  • Use the hotel's concierge to ensure truly seamless arrivals and departures and to experience the very best of all the hotel, the island of Capri, and the Amalfi Coast have to offer.
Accommodations

Romantic and filled with light.

Once the island residence of the European aristocracy, today's hotel still looks and feels very much like a private home. In fact, each room is individually appointed and has a unique charm. Romantic and filled with light, all rooms have a balcony, terrace, patio, or private garden, and fifty of the fifty-six rooms have dreamy sea views. There are five master suites, located in particularly panoramic parts of the main hotel building, all with magnificent views from the bedroom ... and the bathroom, too. Except for the Capri Master Suite and Caesar Master Suite, which are fitted with King beds, all accommodations have a European Queen-size bed. Twin beds are available in a limited number of junior suites and must be requested and confirmed at the time of booking. Triple occupancy is not recommended but is available on a request basis only in a limited number of junior suites.
Pool + Gym

Double-level, double the daydreams.

Arguably the most Instagrammable pool in the whole of Italy, the double-level infinity pool offers guests the experience of swimming in glistening waters surrounded by spectacular views of the Bay of Naples and the sea surrounding Capri. Sunbeds are provided free of charge. Drinks and snacks are available from the poolside bar. The pool is heated in the cooler months.

The small, complimentary outdoor fitness room offers free weights and Technogym equipment. Located in the hotel's extensive cliff-top gardens, the fitness facility offers lovely sea views and a workout with wow factor!
Spa

Garden-view spa treatments.

The hotel's small, semi-outdoor wellness facility is located in the gardens, perfect for a relaxing massage or facial treatment.
Restaurant + Bar

Zero-mile cuisine with the freshest ingredients.

Terrazza di Lucullo restaurant is beautifully located on the cliff edge, showcasing magnificent sea views. The perfect choice for a romantic dinner, the restaurant serves exquisite zero-mile cuisine created using the super-fresh herbs and vegetables grown in the hotel's extensive kitchen garden and the finest of locally sourced ingredients.

For the ultimate dining experience, book one of the special tables located in particularly panoramic parts of the property. Looking for a unique location for a proposal? Book the secluded Pensatoio: a private terrace carved into the rock face with unforgettable views.

A cocktail on the terrace of the infinity bar is an absolute must. Adorned with comfy sofas and strategically placed sitting areas, this is the most romantic spot on the whole of the island in which to enjoy a drink as the sun sets over the sea. The panoramic terrace also provides a stunning exhibition space for works of contemporary art and sculpture on loan from Liquid Art System. Live music is played on most evenings.
