We stayed in Esperidi in mid August for one week in a junior family suite with two adults and two children. Esperidi resort is difficult to review. Spoiler alert: I recommend it, but do not expect 4-star luxury everywhere. First the positive points. The resort is beautiful situated between lemontrees, palmtrees and a bananatree. Friendly gardeners take good care for the garden. The resort is along a busier road but you do not hear much from it. There is a beautiful pool on the resort with a nice view on surrounding hills. Our suite had 2 good functioning airconditionings (much needed) and the staff is without exception friendly, helpful and they have good suggestions for places to eat and visit. The resort is centrally located in Saint Agnello, a small village a few minutes drive to Sorrento. But then there are some things you need to know. The family suite was small. Especially the bathroom and more specific the shower was small and very dated. The bathroom is something Esperidi should upgrade and whilst busy with that they should also buy new beds: they are not terrible, but also not good. However: The suite was clean when we arrived and was cleaned every day. If we wanted something extra: we got it. If something missed: they brought it, and it was always with a smile. The breakfast is the next thing you should know about, it is sort of an adventure. Do not expect a luxurious buffet, do not expect fresh pressed juices and do not expect that everything you (must) order the day before, is there. It is not a 4-star resort breakfast and about the plastic cutlery: they do have it and they should not. So also the breakfast is something Esperidi should improve. Finally the parking: they offer parking space for € 15,- a day. You can also park on the street in front of the resort for €1 an hour (8-21), but not on monday (market)! To conclude: don’t be tempted too much by the stars and *****es on the website of the Resort, because you might feel cheated. But if you are looking for a resort with very friendly staff, a nice pool and good located near Sorrento and if you don’t mind asking, adjusting or complaining at the staff now and then: Go For It and you’ll be fine.
