What is the best tip for going on your honeymoon to Amalfi Coast?

If you're planning a honeymoon to the Amalfi Coast, I highly recommend staying in Ravello. Not only does it offer breathtaking views, but the town itself is a serene and picturesque haven, away from the hustle and bustle. Ravello boasts a unique charm with its quieter atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The locals are incredibly friendly, and many businesses are family-owned, adding to the authentic experience. During our stay, we had the pleasure of lodging at the Belmond Caruso, and it was nothing short of spectacular. The accommodation, coupled with the unparalleled views, made our honeymoon truly unforgettable. For a romantic and tranquil escape, Ravello is the ideal destination on the Amalfi Coast. Happy travels!
