J.K. Place Capri

The J.K. Place Capri is something rather special indeed ... sensual, refined style, oozing comfort and hovering just a few feet above the Mediterranean. The team behind Florence's JK idea created such a good vibe that they decided to turn their hands to the south of Italy and the wonderful isle of Capri. So it was that in early 2007, this small charming luxury hotel in Capri swung its doors wide open to beautiful seductive interiors, yards of luxurious fabrics, a warm, sophisticated feel and a sensation of déja vu – you may not have seen this hotel before but you’ve probably dreamt of it.

Twenty two rooms hug the hill just above Capri’s port, the only hotel on the island with direct access to the beach and those beautiful Mediterranean waters. The J.K. Place-feel combined with Capri’s addictive, dreamlike environment mean that this is a combination made in heaven. Already a destination designed for relaxation, Capri’s cliffs tower out of the transparent blue-green sea, bright white houses with their flattened domes hinting Moorish influences, deep blue skies, the vibrant colours of the ceramic tiles, scents of Mediterranean macchia; it is a magical island.

When you combine the scenery, southern flavours and air of freedom with that outdoor (heated) pool set in the garden, surrounded by decking and a terrace with views leading off to somewhere on the other side of the Mediterranean you must be close to heaven. A massage before lunch? Siesta to the sounds of the sea below, an aperitivo a little later? But where? Anacapri, Piazza Duomo or down by the port to watch the sunset? A beautiful luxury hotel in a little piece of paradise, J.K. Place Capri is a must if you owe someone a treat!
